Maya’s WhatsApp Chat with Tania
tania (fl bff)
Maya! Wake up!! You promised we’d plan the project today 😭
maya
Ughhh… 7:30 am?? It’s Monday… I hate Mondays.
tania (fl bff)
Too late for excuses. Get up or I’m coming to your house.
maya
Fineee… but only if you bring coffee ☕
Maya texts as she drags herself out of bed, her little brother barges in.
arif(fl bro)
Didi!! Breakfast!! I’m starving!!
maya
Arif!! Give me 5 min!! You’re gonna explode before I even pour tea 😩
arif(fl bro)
Pffft, 5 minutes my foot!
Maya shuffles to the kitchen, boiling water and grabbing biscuits. She sits on the balcony scrolling Instagram.
maya
Dhaka… noisy as ever. Street vendors yelling, rickshaws honking… love it, hate it.
tania (fl bff)
Don’t forget assignment too! You can’t procrastinate forever.
maya
Know, I know 😑 Just… need my tea first.
She takes a sip, leans back, watching the city wake up, thinking about how chaotic life is, but also… how normal, and safe, it feels.
Another Monday survived. Let’s see what this week throws at me…

tania (fl bff)
Hey! Are you awake yet? I’m at your flat waiting 😩
maya
Just got out of bed… barely. Can’t believe I survived Monday morning traffic 😭
tania (fl bff)
Lol, you always survive! But hurry, we need to plan the project.
fl mom
Maya! Don’t forget to clean your room before your friend comes!
maya
Mom! I cleaned it yesterday… kinda… ish 😑
Maya sits on her balcony again, watching the busy streets below. A street vendor yells about fresh samosas, auto-rickshaws honk nonstop, and school kids laugh running past.
maya
: Dhaka… you never rest. Honestly, I love it and hate it at the same time
tania (fl bff)
I’m coming upstairs. And bring biscuits 😏
maya
Fine… but only because you’re my best friend 😤
She grabs a plate of biscuits, smiling as chaos swirls around her. Just another normal day in Dhaka.
tania (fl bff)
Too late for excuses. Get up or I’m coming to your house.
Maya’s life might seem ordinary… but sometimes ordinary days hide the beginning of something extraordinary.
Dhaka is chaotic, messy, and loud… and somehow, it feels like home.”

tania (fl bff)
I’m at your gate. Tell Arif to open.
maya
Why Arif? Afraid of climbing the stairs? 😂
tania (fl bff)
Just… tell him.
Maya puts her phone down, walks to the kitchen where Arif is making tea.
maya
Hey, Tania’s downstairs. Go open the gate.
arif(fl bro)
Why can’t you?
maya
Because she asked for you specifically.
arif(fl bro)
Raises an eyebrow Did she?
Arif wipes his hands, walks downstairs. Maya follows halfway just to watch. Tania is standing by the gate, brushing her hair behind her ear. Arif unlocks the latch, and for a moment they just… look at each other. No smile, no words, just this long, unbroken eye contact.
maya
(thinking): Ohhh. This is not normal neighborly looking
tania (fl bff)
You’re late.
tania (fl bff)
And you’re still wearing that same grey t-shirt.
arif(fl bro)
It’s my favorite.
tania (fl bff)
I can tell.
They both walk in, Tania carrying her tote bag, Arif holding the gate open a little longer than needed. Maya notices his hand brush hers as she passes. Tania doesn’t pull away quickly.
Maya flops on the sofa between them. Arif is on the armchair, Tania sits across. The tea is still in the kitchen.
tania (fl bff)
So, we’re starting the project, right?
maya
Yes, but… where’s the file?
arif(fl bro)
Get it. stands up slowly
Maya catches Tania’s eyes following him as he walks away. When she realizes Maya saw her, Tania quickly looks at the floor.
maya
Grinning You okay there?
maya
No reason. Just… you looked like you were… thinking.
tania (fl bff)
I always think.
Arif returns with a folder and three cups of tea. He hands one to Maya, then to Tania. When she takes it, their fingers touch — too long to be accidental. Arif clears his throat and sits back down.
maya
(thinking): Oh my God, this is so awkwardly obvious.
arif(fl bro)
You’re welcome.
They sip in silence for a few seconds, eyes avoiding each other but the air thick with something unspoken. Maya scrolls her phone pretending not to notice, but she’s grinning inside.
tania (fl bff)
Yeah. Let’s.
They lean over the table to look at the file, heads a little too close. Maya watches as Arif explains something, his voice softer than usual. Tania nods, smiling faintly. They don’t notice Maya at all.
