Honestly I enjoy writing in hindi and the dialogues comes freely in hindi but here is an attempt from my side to write this new SS in English..
This one goes to Az07 -IF for requesting to write an SS portraying Zoya for what she is in this story.. J
Happy Valenties Day to all the Readers...Hope you enjoy reading this.. !!
PART 1
Asad Ahmed Khan, 28 Yrs old, MD of Dilshad constructions was busy with a call in his study and he immediately froze looking at the person entering his room. He informed the person on the other end of the call that he would call back and disconnected.
Asad : What happened Najma.. ?? Why are you crying ??
Najma, his sister who was 19 Yrs old doing her First year engineering in Computer Science in Bhopal Institute of Engineering was crying a lot without disclosing anything to Asad...
Asad : Najma..calm down baby.. Tell me what's wrong with you ?? Did anybody tease you in college ?? I will see to that they are punished... Come lets go to your college...!!
Najma : No Bhaijaan.. Nobody teased me in college and her tears were slowly subsiding...
Asad's weakness was his sister.. He would hate to see his sister in tears...and he would punish the person mercilessly whoever it was who was the reason behind her tears...
Najma : Actually Bhaijaan.. It is one of my lecturers... She scolded me in front of the whole class for not writing a computer program properly.. I was very embarrassed in front of my friends and so I tried to walk out of her class but...
Asad's eyes had now become red with anger and he his eyebrows were knotted... : But what Najma ??
Najma looked up at her brother with fresh tears... : Looking at me walk out, she called out for me and told that if I walk out from the class disrespecting her then she will not entertain me in any of her class for the rest of the semester and also warned my friends that nobody should share their notes with me and that I should manage things on my own...
Asad : What does she think of herself ?? She does not know with whom she was speaking to probably !! Don't worry Tamatar.. I will speak to her and set things right for you.. !! By the way did you continue to attend the class or did you walk out ??
Najma : I got scared of her and sat back !!
Asad : Najma.. Are you mad ?? You are sister of Asad Ahmed Khan.. who fears nobody .. You have to be bold Najma...I want you to be like me... Don't become a weakling like ammi... !!
Najma : Bhaijaan.. Ammi is not a weakling.. She has faced so much in life... !!We both know that !!
Asad : Ok Najma.. Tell me what is your lecturer's name and which subject lecturer she is ??
Najma : Bhaijaan her name is Zoya Farooqui.. She handles Computer Concepts and C Programming for us...Actually she is from New York.. It seems she joined our college this year only..
Without allowing Namja to continue and Asad to ask anything further, his phone beeped .. He patted Najma's back and kissed her forehead assuring that he will set things right for her... and took his call...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dilshad , mother of Asad Ahmed Khan a school teacher by profession had seen lot of tough days in life but she was now happy to see her son's success.. Asad had been a very hard working person and soon after his engineering in Architecture, he was campus recruited in the prestigious Mallik Constructions as one of their Junior Architects but due to his hard work and talent, he had impressed everybody in the company and had made a name for himself in the construction market in just a span of 2 yrs.. After which he had started his own company Dilshad Constructions , which had become quite a popular name in the business now...
Asad had always been over protective of his mother and his sister Najma.. He would always set things right for them when they found situations difficult to face ... Though he had assured Najma that he would set things for her this time as well, she had noticed her brother busy since morning attending lot of calls and she understood that he had an important presentation on that day ... She wanted to skip college but she remembered her brother's words to be strong and after gathering enough courage, she decided to go to college...
Najma's college
Najma had been uncomfortable through out the day thinking about her last hour of the day.. The last hour was lab session of C Programming.. She had taken an extra effort to study as well at night and understand about the coding part..
Nuzzat, Najma's best friend in her class : What happened Najma ?? Is anything bothering you ?? You have been looking so lost since morning...??
Najma : Nothing much Nuzzat.. I mean.. I was worried about Zoya ma'am's lab session...
Nuzzat started laughing hearing Najma's words.. : Najma Ahmed Khan.. sister of Asad Ahmed Khan scared ?? hmm.. interesting.. So finally we have managed to find someone who scares you !!
Najma : Shut up Nuzzat.. I am not scared of her..!!
Nuzaat : Then chill darling... Najma who had slapped seniors for ragging is scared of a lady.. ?? Somethng hard to digest... !!
Najma : Nuzzat.. She is our lecturer.. damn it and the authority with which she spoke to everbody in the class not to share their notes , am sure entire class will oblige her and no use of your notes.. I know how much useful it will be !!
As they were discussing all this in low tone, they heard the bell go which meant the ongoing lecture would end and they had to head to the computer lab...
Najma and Nuzzat slowly collected their bags and books and headed towards the lab...
As Najma was walking towards the lab, she noticed her brother walking into the campus.. He was in his 3 piece black suit with red aviators on running his fingers through his hairs as he continued speaking to somebody on his phone..
Najma's face suddenly lit up.. : Bhaijaan is here.. He remembered at what time I had Ms. Farooqui's class... and she shouted at her brother to catch his attention...
Nuzzat : Najma.. Are you mad ?? This time it is not any student .. Ms. Farooqui is our lecturer and I somehow feel it is not a good idea .. !!
By the time Nuzzat could complete, Asad had reached them...
Asad : Hi Nuzzat.. How are you ??
Nuzzat managed to smile : I am fine Bhaijaan .. Thank you !!
Asad : So Najma.. Is this the room where I can meet your scary lecturer ?? pointing towards the computer lab ...Najma you stay with me.. Nuzzat please go and call her out.. .
Najma : Bhaijaan.. I will also go inside..
Asad : Come on Najma.. You need not be scared about anybody.. I am here...
As Asad was speaking to Najma, he noticed a young lady in a black saree with her hair left loose walked out of the computer lab room ... Without realizing he took out his aviators to have a better look at her. He had expected an elderly lady with a stern face and glasses but he was surprised to see that it was a young lady..
Zoya was told by Nuzzat that she had a visitor and she did not mention who it was to avoid explaining the reason. As Zoya walked out, she noticed Najma standing with a handsome guy .. His hairs were flying due to the air which was blowing and as he took out his glasses, she noticed he had killer looks .. Her eyes went back to Najma...She came and stood in front of them folding her hands in front of her chest.
Zoya looked at her wrist watch and back at Najma : Najma you are late..I think I had made it clear that I expect my students to be in class on time.. I do not tolerate any sort of indiscipline. Inside now !!
Najma tried to walk slowly only to be pulled back by Asad..
Zoya noticed that and immediately lifted her eyebrow : Excuse me ?? May I know what's happening here ??
Asad : May I know what do you think of yourself ?? Do you know who she is ??
Zoya : Look Mr. I don't care who you are and what is going on here.. I just know that she is my student and she now needs to be in the class..!! and if you could please excuse me.. I have work..and she tried to walk away...
Asad : Look Miss.. Nobody walks out like this when I am speaking ...
Zoya got really angry hearing that.. : You are neither country's president nor Prime Minister nor a Movie star though you look like one.. to recognize you .. and If you want to discuss anything, please wait till I am done with my work and she next turned to Najma : You are not allowed in my class today and she walked away without looking back..
Asad's thoughts "What the hell does she think of herself ?? Tamatar was right.. This lady is too much of herself" and he looked at Najma who was even more tensed and had tears in her eyes...
Najma : Bhaijaan.. This is now getting worse.. What do we do ??
Asad : Najma.. We will wait till the class gets over... !!
Najma was shocked to hear that from her brother...She knew he was always the aggressive one but he looked tongue tied infront of her madam...
Asad and Zoya sat down in the chairs which were outside the lab... It was nearly after 2 hours when students started walking out of the lab... Najma noticed that few of her classmates were eyeing her brother who seemed to be unaware of that and lost checking his mails in his phone...
Najma : Bhaijaan !!
Asad looked up and found that all the students had now walked away...except for Nuzzat who had joined them...
Asad got up and walked towards the lab and knocked on the door.. Zoya expected Najma and her movie star look alike brother waiting.. She had got to know through Nuzzat that it was Najma's brother and also the reason on why he was here...She walked gracefully towards them and looked at Najma first and back to her brother...Nuzzat tried to look down avoiding Zoya's eyes...!!
Zoya : Yes please.. Thanks for waiting.. !! How can I help you ??
It was strange for both Najma and Nuzzat to see Asad speaking in a low tone..
Asad : I am Asad Ahmed Khan, brother of Najma ... I understand you scolded my sister yesterday .. May I know what was the problem ??
Zoya : Mr. Khan.. Since you already know that I scolded her, I assume that you know the reason as well.. !!
Asad's thoughts "Can she not speak straight ?? I am trying my best to handle the situation sweetly and she seems to be not coming out of her proud zone !!"
Asad : Yes I do.. Not knowing the answer is not a reason good enough to scold a student at this age... !!
A smile was seen on her face and he noticed the dimple which had now formed on her cheeks...
Zoya : Well.. Well.. If you understand that she is a grown up and should not be scolded in the class, you should also understand Mr. Khan that this is not a school for your sister to get her guardians complaining about her teachers...!!
Asad : Miss... I understand that.. I will definitely answer your question but I need the answer first...
Zoya : Why do you think I should be doing that ?? I know how to handle my students and I need not learn from others about it... I don't tolerate indiscipline in my class.. Your sister had the audacity for not only day dreaming in my class but also to walk away without my permission... Now will you please stop behaving like a possessive parent of a school child and excuse me ??
Zoya tried to walk past Asad but her sandal's heel broke at the very same moment making her fall on Asad... While he immediately caught hold of her .. Both of them felt a crazy tingle run through their bodies and Asad immediately left his hand while Zoya tried to steady herself..
Nuzzat : Ma'am are you ok ??
Zoya just nodded her head and she bent down and took her sandals in her hand and without even bothering to tell a thank you to Asad, walked away..
Nuzzat's thoughts " I think I have an idea to free Najma from all this.. !!"
Asad nodded his head in disbelief and he also started walking out of the campus while Najma ran behind him...
