Coffee or addiction? Just like you, it is a part of me

Asim:

Last night was unlike the other nights of my life. It was special. I met the consultant at the theatre and got the chance to perform live at the country's (Pakistan) biggest platform "coke studio". So I'm on cloud nine. Thanks to that lovely stranger who helped me right on time. Just like God has sent her for me. For the first time in life I'm this much grateful of God. It felt like i am blessed. :')

The only problem now is to come up with the song before the end of this month and I still have no inspiration. Just when i was busy thinking about what to write Mrs. Malik's smiling face pop up in my mind.

And i realized that i haven't told her about this big news yet. So i grab my coat and take my laptop in case i get some inspiration and drive straight to the cafe.

Mrs.Malik;

It's been a while i haven't heard anything from hania or asim. God please help those two in the best way possible. I can't see them suffering.

"Mrs.Malik guess who?"

Asima asks closing Mrs.Malik's eyes with his hands.

"Asim, how childish! Grow up a little dear."

Asim comes in front of her and hugged her tightly.

"Mrs.Malik i made it! I made it! Coke studio wants me to perform live. I'm so happy i can't even tell. I'm just so happy!"

Mrs.Malik takes asim's face in her hands and said;

"See i knew it from the start! Didn't I tell you trust God? So now can i have a selfie with the future rockstar? And an autograph as well I'll frame it on my living room's wall."

"Oh come on Mrs.Malik you are exaggerating everything!I just got an offer, i haven't written a song yet or who knows whether I'll be successful or not!

She smiled on him underestimating his capabilities again.

"I'll go and bring you your favourite coffee. No sugar and a whip of cream on strong Americano just the way you like it. You just don't drink coffee for all nighters and for releasing stress but also in happy moments. It's bitter taste keep you close to reality. And yes it's on me, my treat!"

Asim nods and opens his laptop. He look outside the window to come up with something and....

"Mrs.Malik can i have one Americano please, the regular one!"

Hania's eyes meet asim's eyes and they both smiled.

Mrs.Malik notices the exchange of smiles and approaches hania.

"Hania my dear! Long time no see, where were you?

All good?"

"Let's sit there with asim."

They both sits opposite to asim.

"Asim she's hania one of my closest regular costumer just like you and hania he's the one i mentioned last time the amazing singer!"

Hania smiles remembering;

Last meeting with Mrs.Malik;

Mrs.Malik speaks hugging hania;

"Everything is going to be fine my dear, with pain comes ease. He(God) tests his closest with such wordly exams. Don't lose hope. Be faithful, to then he'll guide you the path of inner peace and satisfaction. You are not the only one going through this so never ask why me. You are unaware how others in this world are surviving. You know what there's another customer of mine ummm 2 or 3 years older than you. He's done with his graduation but music keeps him stressed all the time. He have no inspiration these days and you know how Industry works. You have to keep releasing new songs to become famous. He's talented but scared to try anything new. Because at this stage of life just like you he can't afford any risk either."
