Ok guys..heres a new OS. This time i decided to write one to compliment the current track in the show. I hope I did a better job then those jokers writing for bepannaah currently.
Also, can someone tell me what TS, SS and FF stand for and what each means (i only know OS is one shot)? I want to update my title accordingly.
***********
"Aditya, I have to leave work early today. Do you think you can cover for me and meet with Mr. Chopda?"
"Yes, of course. All we need is to gather requirements right? I can manage that. But where are you going?" Asked Adi.
"I have to attend this event for Zosh marketing. See you tomorrow!", said Zoya vaguely and hurriedly left from there before he could ask more questions. Aditya was looking at her suspiciously, and Zoya felt guilty about hiding things from him, but she felt this was for the best.
Adi and Zoya were finally coexisting in a fragile harmony. After the huge fight over the case and Adi getting shot, Zoya had decided to hold off on reopening the case just yet. To reopen the case, she needed two things.
A) proof that PooSh were indeed murdered
B) a lead on who murdered them so she could work with the police and her lawyer
She had agreed with Aditya on not reopening the case because she needed buy some time to do her research. Initially she had no idea where to start. Thankfully, something had landed on her lap right as she was about to lose hope. Pooja's diary. She also had the two best sidekicks one could ever ask for. Arjun and Noor. Together, the trio made a pretty good team. Arjun, with the mind of a criminal lawyer, often was the one to come up with the clues. Noor was street smart and had the craziest ideas(which somehow always worked) and Zoya, well Zoya was just desperate and ready to go to any extent to prove Yash innocent. She knew that everyone around her could not understand her need to do this, but she had loved Yash with all her heart, and she could not tolerate his name maligned like this. The court verdict had completely ruined her own reputation, and it had also forever left a bad image of Yash for everyone they knew.
While reading Pooja's diary, they had learned that aside from Pooja and the bank, Yash had also borrowed money from someone called "Mr. Kumar", who was pressuring him to return the money by a certain deadline. According to Arjun, money was most likely the biggest motive behind PooSh's murder, if indeed it was murder. After a lot of research and going through all of Yash's financial documents, they had finally found who Mr. Kumar was. He was a rich businessman who preyed on desperate people like Yash by loaning them money and then charging huge amount of interest on it. Whether he was capable of murder, they didn't know yet.
And that was the reason for Zoya leaving work early. They had come to know thar Mr. Kumar was going to be at a party tonight and they were planning to attend. Noor, in her research, had learned that Mr. Kumar had a weakness for horses and pretty women. She had come up with a plan to flirt with Mr. Kumar and get him drunk enough so he would start talking. The plan was simple, dangerous, and so much could go wrong, but Zoya was willing to go along. Arjun had been against this plan, but since Zoya and Noor were for it, he had lost the vote and had to give in.
She finished dressing up and gave herself one final look in the mirror. Just then, someone knocked on the bathroom door.
"Appi, are you ready?", asked Noor
"Yes Noor, just a second." And she went to open the door for her.
"Oh wow! You look fabulous Appi. Are you sure you will be able to go through the plan though?"
"I am sure. I have to do this myself. I couldn't let you be the one to go near that creep. Plus, don't you remember how many school plays I used to participate in? I am sure I can act convincingly enough" countered Zoya.
"Ok then. Lets go quickly. Arjun is distracting Adi from coming out of his office. We need to leave before he sees you like this."
******************
Adi sat in his office wondering what was going on. He knew Zoya was upto something. He had caught her several times talking to somone on the phone and then hanging up as soon as she saw him. Since "the fight", Zoya only talked to him if it was something to do with Zosh. She no longer gave him any lectures, or laughed with him or reacted to any of his antics. He knew he had messed up by offering money to her dad for their silence, but dammit, he had been desperate. Since then, although Zoya had forgiven him (or she said she had), she seemed to have distance herself from him. He had tried everything to get her to react to him, but nothing had worked. Deep down, he feared he had lost Zoya forever. NO, that would not happen. He would get his friend back. He wouldn't give up!
"Bhai! Bhai! Helllooo! I am talking to you bhai", said Arjun.
"Arjun, what are you doing here?" Asked Adi.
"Umm, I came to discuss something important with you", said Arjun.
"Yeah, whats up?...Actually hold on a second. I have to pee really bad. Let me go to the bathroom and then we'll talk aram se." Said Adi
"NO! No, wait bhai. This is important. Please listen to me for a second." Arjun desperately tried to stop him but to no avail.
"Ok then, walk with me and talk. What do you...Zoya?" Adi lost all train of thought as he saw Zoya about to walk out from the office.
He couldn't believe what he he was seeing. Zoya was wearing a deep red dress made from some type of chiffon material. It was a long dress that went all the way to the floor and hugged each and every curve of her body. It also had a plunging neckline. For a second, he was spellbounded by her beauty and could not take his eyes off of her. But in the next moment, came the rage.
"What the hell are you wearing?", yelled Adi.
Zoya, Noor and Arjun stood frozen, not knowing what to do.
"This is what you are planning to wear to this event? I will not let you go while you are half naked. GO CHANGE!", he took off his own coat and wrapped it around her.
"Don't be ridiculous Aditya. The event has a dress code, and I do not have anything to change into. Plus, this dress is perfectly conservative. It may be a little daring for someone like me, but in this day and age, people wear even more revealing outfits. This is comparatively very decent", argued Zoya and took off his coat.
Adi gritted his teeth and held on to his patience. He put the coat back on and said, "Zoya, if you value your safety, you will go change. You are not not going anywhere dressed like this."
"I do not appreciate your high handed attitude, Aditya. You are not my father or brother, so please stop behaving like one ", Zoya crossed her arms and glared at him.
Arjun and Noor looked at each other and rolled their eyes. These two fought over everything!
Adi felt like hitting someone. This girl NEVER listened to him! "Fine then. I am coming with you to this event", Adi said.
"NO"
"NO"
"NO"
All three of them shouted.
"Bhai, I will look after Zoya, you don't have to worry", even as Arjun said it, he knew from the look on his brother's face that he was not going to budge on this.
" You can argue all you want, but I am going with you guys. Lets go", Adi said.
And so, the four of them went to the party. All four had different thoughts running through their heads as the walked towards the car...
Arjun: There was no way bhai was going to let Zoya near another man. How would Zoya ever get Mr. Kumar alone and talking?
Noor: Useless Arjun! Couldn't even do one thing right. Mr. Kumar would never approach Zoya if Adi did not stop behaving like her bodyguard or like a jealous boyfriend.
Zoya: She hoped she could get information out of Mr. Kumar.
Adi: If anyone so much at looked at Zoya, he would break their nose.

All, this is the first part. Let me know if this track is interesting and if you want to know what happens at the party and I will consider writing a part 2.
