The water splashed as the face was pushed up from inside of water

                                                  --

"nahi balkay uth tou jaldi jata hai,mun nikala hoga pani sey, phir time dekhay ga, and that would be 7:15AM"(no, not that, he used to wake up early so he would be definitely swimming and now jump his face out and watch the time and it would be 7:15AM)

                                                    -

The body swirled to the edge to check out the time.

                                                      --

"aur phir kahay ga, "Oh S**t Man!""(andthen he would say "s**t man")

                                                        -

"Oh S**t Man!"

                                              --

"Phir jaldi sey taiyaar ho kar bhag kar, apni Usain Bolt wali speed mein bhaag kar seedha yahan aaye ga par..."(then he would get ready fast and run hurriedly in Usain Bolt's speed to here but....)

                                                 -

"gate pe aa kar ruk jaye ga"(he would stop at gate)

                                            -

                                    -

"Aray kaisa hai tu! kafi time baad nazar aaya! chaar din hogaye hum baat hi nahi kar sakay!"(Hey! How are you! you are seen after long time, four days have gone without talking!)

-"sahi keh raha hai tu, Faji"(you are right, Faji)

"Chal aa chai peetay hain"(Okay now come and have tea)

"Yeh ki na baat tu ne, Kamran meray cheetay!"(that is called decision my cheetah!)

                                   --

"woh sub phir chai peeyein ge aur waheen gate par kharay rahayein ge Dawood k intazaar mein, kaafi time baad aa raha hai is liye"(then they would all have tea and keep standing there to wait for Dawood, he will come today after 15 days)

"Yaar! yeh Dawood kab aaye ga!"(Yaar! When will Dawood come!)

"haan yaar"(yeah)

"Pandra din hogaye hain uss ki shakal nahi dekhi"(15 days have passed and we didn't see his face)

                                        --

"kal tak sub Fajahad k intazaar mein kharay hotay thay, aur aaj sub Dawood k"

Chalo Dawood ka case tou phir samjh aata hai, pandra din sey nahi tha, par Fajahad ka case, yun lagta jaisay chand ghanton ki bhi doori bardasht nahi uss say

khair phir aaye ga Dawood aur Faji apna ussi k saath baaton mein lag jaye ga aur baatein karte karte dono ground tak aa jayein ge wahan baithein ge chocolate khayein ge, wahi Boltan market ki pandra rupay wali Kit Kat khayein ge aur phir Faji apni class aur woh apni"(Till yesterday everyone used to stand in the name of waiting for Fajahad and nowfor Dawood

But Dawood's case in understandable, he was not there for 15 days but Fajahad's case, it is like that they could not tolerate the separation of few hours.

Anyways, Dawood will come then and our Faji too will get busy in gossips and then while gossiping they will reach near the ground, they will sit there and have Boltan market's 15 rupees' KitKat and then Fajahad will come to his class and Dawood to his) )

                                          -

"Aray Dawood aa gaya apna!"(Oh our Dawood has come!)

As Dawood was seen they all ran outside to greet him.

"kaisa hai tu! chal aa ja!"(Whats up bro! Lets come inside!)

"aray Faji! Kaisay hai meray cheetay! Tujhay Kashmir mein main ne bada yaad kiya! Wahan ki bachian item number hain, item number!"(Hey Faji! Whats up my gangster! I missed you so much in Kashmir! The girls of there are Item number, Item number!)

And the both mingled with each other, left the whole crowd aside.

"Acha chal tu yeh lay"(Hey, take this), they sat near the ground on path and having chocolate.

"Tera Boltan Market sey sastay mein chocolate khareed nay ka idea bada hi solid hai"(Your ideaof buying from Boltan Market in cheap cost iss damn too good)

And their chug wag was carried on.

"okay so I have to go now at my class you go to your way", And Dawood walked to his class.

                                         --

"Dekhna woh yaheen aaye ga!"(He will come here, see it!)

                                          -

And Faji entered and Farhan burst out "Dekha! main ne kaha tha na!"(see! Have not I said it!). He looking at them with lips bent downwards and eyes narrowed down and he asked asked "kiya hua bhai?"(What happen,bro?)

-"kuch nahi, tu aa gaya swimming, Kamran, Jamal, Shamir aur Dawood sey mil k?"(Nothing, have you after swimming, gossiping with Kamran, Jamal, Shamir and Dawood?)

"Waah rey! Tujhe tou mera poora schedule pata hai! Kiya bhai kiya teri nazrein mujh pe hi hain! hain hain!"(Wow! You know my whole schedule! Are you eyes at me all the time! Yes yes yes!)

-"Ooye chup kar! Chamaar sala! Hat yahan sey!

"Yani logon ki shadeed zaroorat hai"(It means there is huge need of employees)

"jee Miss Nida"(Yes,Miss Nida)

"par yeh baat Faraz ko samjhayein kon"(But who will let Faraz to understand this)

Faraz was outside in creative department designing the shape of his new product while Nida and Secretary were in Human Resources department and glancing at him.

"Nida", Faraz caught her glance. 

He walked across to her.

"Tum 2 bajay tak ghar chali jao, Mummy, tum aur Farah aaj Khala k yahan jao ge, I will join you but afterwards"(You have to go home by 2' O clock because you, Mummy and Farah will go at Khala's place. I will join you but afterwards)

-"theek hai"(okay)

                                                 ----

"Yeh Fajahad kahan hai! kahan hoga yeh?"(Now where is Fajahad! Where would he be?), Imran uttered who was standing under sun.

"ussay kahaan ho na, woh factory par hoga ya phir chachi k yahan ya apne ghar par, waisay apne ghar par honay k chances tou kam hain ya phir Osman k yahan hoga"(Where would he go, we would be at factory or at Chachi'splace or hishome, by the way there are very less chances of his being at home so otherwise he would be at Osman's place), Farhan, who was also standing there,told them. 

"Osman, woh kaun hai?"(Osman, who is he?), Jamshed asked. He was sitting beside him in circle. But Farhan was standing and they all were sitting on broken chairs.

"Aray Osman wahi jo uss k ghar pass walay apartment mein rehta hai jis k ghar mein bada sa carom board hai"(Osman is that guy who lives in nearby apatment at Faji's house and have a big carom board), Farhan said. He was trying to remember him.

"wahi na jo MBBS kar raha hai na?"(Isn't he that one who doing MBBS?)

"tujhay bada pata hai"(you know very well), Essa laughed.

"Tu chup kar, U-foneki sim"(Shut up! U-fone's sim)

"beta tum jaan k kiya kartay"(What will do by knowing?)

"uncle hum madad kardein thori inho ne bhi tou humari mushkil waqt mein madad ki thi"(Uncle we can help them a little they even helped us in our difficult times)

"itnay bhi kharab halaat nahi hain, acha khair yeh sub choro, tum yeh batao k khanay ka kiya socha kis ko catering ka order dein"(they don't have such bad situation, anyways what about food? we are giving order of catering to which caterer?)

"waah jee waah! Tou bijaye mera mun meetha karne aap ne mujhe accounts pe laga diya"(Thats great! And instead of offering sweet you gave me accounts!)

"aray bhai yeh rahi tumhari mithai, aur haan aaj tumhein meray saath hi rehna hai theek hai"(So here is your sweet! And yeah you have to come with me, okay?)

"haan"(yes)

and the conversation goes on between uncle and nephew.

"aray yaar kaheen bhi nahi hai, na factory, na chachi k ghar aur na hi osman aur pathan bhai k yahan"(Oh hohe is not anywhere not at factory,neither at Chachi's place, his home nor at Osman's place)

"phir pata nahi kahan hoga" (then I don't know where he would be)

"tou Mehru baji, aap chai kab pila rahi hain mujhe, main iss mahinay mein dou dafa aa chuka hoon aur aap ne ek baar bhi mujhe chai nahi pilai, main aap ki chai peenay ko taras raha hoon, aap ko pata hai aap kitni achi chai banati hain.

waisay aap ka naam bara hi novelistic hai Mehrunisa, aur usko short kark bolne mein itna maza aata hai aur phir saath mein aagay baji laga diya jaye tou tou bai kiya baat hai jee"(So Mehru baji, when you are giving me tea, I have come two times in this months and you at both times didn't give tea not even at once, I am dying to have your hand made tea, do you know you made such a freshening tea.

By the way your name is very novelistic MEHRUNISA, and when it is spoken in short it sounds so amazing and when BAJI is added so its beauty is increased more.)

-"aaj sub khairiat tou hai na, itna makhan kiya majra hai"(Is everything alright today?why are you buttering me so much?), she said. She was sitting on a wooden small chair beside the bed.

"bus aisay hi, aap mujhay achi hi itni lagti hain k bus, seriously aap mujhe bohat achi lagti hain, aap such mein meri baji hain, meri Mehru Baji" (justly, I like you that is why I praise you so much, seriously I like you very much, you are actually my baji, my Mehru Baji).

and they both looked at each other. She was standing against the door and he was sitting on bed in very small room painted with loud colours that witnessing the class and area and situation of them.

"Parveen auntie kahan hain"(where is Parveen auntie)

"nahi kuch nahi, bus unsey kaam tha ek, ek order mila hai, teen sau tak k bando ka"(Nothing, I want to talk to her, there is one order for her, she has to make food for 300 people), he stood up from bed to go out and ten stopped and continued

"unko bolna aatay hi mujh sey baat karein theek hain"(ask her to call me when she will come back)

he was glancing at her.

"acha ab main chalta hoon"(okay now i will go)

"Fajahad ek minute, yeh tumharay liye"(Fajahad, one minute, it is for you)

"yeh kiya hai"(yeh kiya hai)

"kuch nahi, ghar jaa kar dekh lena, abhi jaldi jao raat honay wali hai, yeh ilaqah sahi nahi hai tumharay liye, kuch hogaya tou"(nothing, check it out at home, now go home fast, it is getting night, the area is not safe for, if anything is done to you )
