Coincidence or fate?

Mrs.Malik after a complete silence for about 5-6 minutes;

(Clearing her throat)

" ughmmm... what's the sudden tension? i can feel awkwardness in the air. well well... young people you sure have secrets in hearts and stress on mind... and i think adults need to understand that! So you two talk out your worries with each other. It's better than discussing things with me. As you are of same age and what I assume is you don't know each other that well.... can't say you're complete strangers.

you can share your problems with strangers better than people you know. I'll go and buy some grocery meanwhile. Take care of the cafe for me."

She smiled leaving the table.

They keep smiling awkwardly avoiding each other's gaze..

This isn't helping;

"What a coincidence!"

(hania blushes saying)

"More like a work of fate for me."

Asim expresses what he really thinks.

"Thanks for that day i got this breakthrough just because of you..

hania looks at him confused... her cheeks become more red

"umm i mean because of the ticket you gave me"

"oh.. i see. good to know i was useful for someone."

"yes and that's why I'm really really grateful,thank you.

you know what, i thought that i might never be able to

hania burst out laughing

"sorry i get a little excited don't know why! :-|"

"it's okay i get it. so i come here often 'cause i live in next street. I'm waiting for my luck to shine and my fate to have mercy on me. I mean.....i gave the med school entrance test last year but i didn't get into it. you know eligibility and all that. I'm 18 rn and i have 3 younger siblings."

(the story ummm and now i noticed the voice sounds familiar)

"Interesting... were you by any chance here last to last week as well wearing brown, sorry but were crying as well?"

"umm... yes but how do you know that?"

asim smiled in disbelief that the girl he prayed for, for whom he asked God to put his prayers on hold for; so her prayers can be answered first is the one who helped him. Is this the way how Gold answer our prayers? Maybe he liked my kindness of putting someone else before me! Is this karma?

And without realizing he says;

"Its fate, definitely fate. God has answered my prayers."

Hania looked in his direction, all confused.

After processing what he just said he says;

"If my answers are answered this way trust me your prayers will be heard soon. And sorry that day i overheard your conversation with Mrs.Malik i didn't mean to it just happened...
