The wait for the CAB

She was getting late for home. It was already nine and the autorickshaws were charging 1.5 times the normal rates. Her friend Shameen was confident of getting a cab. Shameen's father is the cab services manager, and a call to him can solve the situation. But the girls did not want to pester him and instead wait for a little more time.
Sameer, a close pal of both was adamant to drop her home. But their modesty was not allowing to do so. And after all she came all the way to this place on Sameer's request. Sameer had to go in the opposite direction. He did not take those cabs going to his place, just to give her a company in waiting for the cab.
But before the cab could arrive, the phone had rung up and Sameer's wonderful dream was broken. The reality is she never came to that place.
