Zomato Delivery Boy Surprised by Customer: Ordering food through online food delivery has become a trend now. Be it afternoon or dark of night, your favorite food comes to you within a few minutes. In Ahmedabad also, 4 friends ordered food at midnight. The food delivery boy arrived with this food parcel amidst heavy rain. But when this boy reached the fourth floor of this deserted building on a stormy rainy night, neither this delivery boy nor you and I could have imagined what happened to him. Nowadays, we hear incidents related to delivery boys on social media every day, but this delivery boy named Sheikh Aaqib himself has narrated his ordeal. A video of this entire incident has also surfaced.
It was 1.35 in the night, it was raining heavily…
This video going viral on the internet is teaching a new definition of humanity and relationships. A delivery boy from Ahmedabad narrated this entire incident that happened to him. Humans of Bombay Have told. ‘It was 1.35 in the night and I was standing under a tree. I had to deliver 4-5 food parcels but the rain was very heavy and everywhere was flooded. At that time the first thought that came to my mind was, ‘I should not have taken the order.’ But when it was taken, the work had to be completed. So after a few seconds, I covered my face, wore a raincoat and prayed, ‘God save me,’ and set out. I reached the customer’s building. This building was completely deserted. I thought, ‘Is there any fraud delivery?’ This happens to us often, after 12 o’clock people order and then… disappear! Frightened, I climbed the stairs and rang the bell. Nobody opened the door. I rang the bell again, then Yash Bhai opened the door. He and his friends were at the door. I thought, ‘They will scold me for late delivery.’ But as soon as they opened the door, one of them asked, ‘Today is your birthday?’ And then I realized… today is August 26, actually my birthday. Couldn’t concentrate on work.
These four friends saw Aaqib’s birthday on the app.
When Sheikh Aaqib was given a gift by Yash and his friends
This delivery boy named Sheikh Aaqib further said, ‘Yash Bhai and his friends started singing ‘Happy Birthday’. This song of his immediately brought a smile to my face. This was a very emotional moment for me. They gave me a box…it contained perfume. Then he shook hands with me. In that one moment… I was no longer a delivery agent and they were no longer a customer. The relationship had progressed far…perhaps we can even call it friendship. After all the good wishes, I walked out of his building with a smile. I delivered the remaining packets, reached home at 6 am and slept. When I woke up, my wife said, ‘It’s your birthday and you were working so long?’ I just smiled and said, ‘It’s my birthday.’ He gave a very confused look. And when I told her about this incident, she simply said, ‘Aisa thodi na hota.’
‘It’s my birthday…’
Shaikh Aaqib further says, ‘And in reality… this does not happen very often. In my three-year career as a delivery agent, this is the first time this has happened to me. I have heard a lot, ‘Delivery is late, I will not pay.’ ‘You guys keep passing the time.’ But I have never seen 4 strangers being happy about my birthday. I will always remember this moment. Because such moments and people are difficult to find in life… I found them after 24 years.
