Thousand Miles Apart

An international call from a drunken stranger of 8517 miles apart to the most popular and the hottest football captain of the Newcastle football team, California. Two different continents, but one call leads them to endless secret conversations, midnight jokes, sarcastic comments, family dramas, and of course a new feeling arose within each other and there's probably no going back. What could possibly go wrong? ~~~~ ~ Eshana, a 21-year-old girl, was trapped by the idea of a marriage arranged by her parents without her knowledge to a millionaire. Later that night, her parents decide to surprise her with their decision, causing her to collapse. Eshana, who is heartbroken, decides to go to a bar where she gets drunk and plans to call her brother, who is currently working in the United States. However, due to her dizziness, she dials the wrong number. ~ On the other side of the world is Zachary Ashford, the most popular and hottest football captain of the Newcastle Football team, California. He was getting dressed for a party when he received a phone call from an unknown number. He picked up the phone after some reluctance and was amused by what the person on the other end of the line was saying. ........ ❝Bro! Our p- *hiccups* -parents are arranging my marriage with a danger. I don't want to, m-mary! They say it's for busyness... tell them not t-*hiccups* -to do that. Why are you still not back from the USA?❞ *sobs* ❝uh...

"Uh. Kiara... it's Ash! Is your boss available? It was kinda emergency"

Kiara :

"OH! Ash! Actually, he just came out of the conference room so yeah, he's available for now. I'm on my way to...O-ouch!" *bang*

Zach :

"Woah! You good?"

Kiara's Boss :

"What was that?! Kiara?"

Kiara :

"Ah? Oh. It's nothing, sir. U-um I just tripped"

Kiara's Boss :

"Why can't you be careful? Let me check if it hurt" *footsteps*

Kiara :

"Hehe. It's fine sir. It didn't hur–" *pause* "Um. Why are you checking the door, sir?"

Kiara's Boss :

"What do you mean by why? With the force you hit the door, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up getting cracked."

Zach :

".....hahahahaaaa"

Kiara :

" *whispers* You little MF! Laugh all you want! hmph!"

Zach :

"What was that?!"

Kiara :

"Wha–? Oh. I said, there's an emergency, sir! It's from Ash- I mean Mr.Zachery Ashford. He's on the line, sir."

"I...I know Bro but this is different. She is different. I can prove you!"

Kiara's Boss :

"okay so, how did you guys meet? Don't tell me you attend parties again!!"

Kiara's Boss :

"Wait. What do you mean by you guys never met? TF are you talking Zach?"

Zach :

"Actually Let me tell you the whole thing"

*recites the entire story*

"...and that's how I ended up calling you"

Kiara's Boss :

"You hurt yourself again?! Can't you be a little careful Zach?"

Zach :

"Bro... I told you the entire story and you just caught that?"

Kiara's Boss :

"Shut up Zach. Don't keep hurting yourself. You're lucky enough that I let you play so don't take advantage of the favors. I won't be there for you always! Soon as I leave my company, I'll be there."

Zach :

"Okay Bro. I'll be careful"

Kiara's Boss :

"Anyway, Amar Agarwal does work here so don't worry about that. I'll give him a break since he's a good man and works hard. Also, I heard about Mehras. They were one of dad's competitors but not heard of them since I took the position of CEO nor do they top the list of top companies worldwide. So, don't worry about that. Just watch out for yourself."

Zach :

"Thank you so so s–"
