It was a dark and stormy night making them shiver due to cold and soaked clothes. The cracking sound of the thunder was everywhere and from the dark clouds lightning struck here and there, lighting up the sky for a second before vanishing.
'Just leave my hand Asad. What the hell is wrong with you ?' She shouted angrily and took two steps back when he finally turned back with anger visible in his eyes.
'What the hell is wrong with you Zoya ?' He asked back angrily while coming closer to her. 'You know very well that I don't like him then what's the point of talking to him again and again without any reason ?' He asked sternly while controlling his voice and on the other hand she was not getting anything what he was saying.
'You punched him because I was talking to him ? Does that even make sense ?' She asked sarcastically, still not able to believe what he did few minutes back.
'I punched him because he is having bad intentions about you. I hope that makes sense now ?' He asked sternly with anger burning in his eyes while his hand ran to his wet hair to control his frustration. Sehrish's words were again ringing in his mind.
'I don't believe all this.' She marely stated in low voice while Asad took it other way round.
'You don't believe me ?' He asked while holding her from her shoulders and took a deep breath while looking at her shivering lips. Zoya looked up at his questioning face and shook her head in disbelief still not able to digest what he was saying.
'I believe you but will you believe me if I say the same for Sehrish ? Should I also slap her for what she did ten years back ?' She asked him back with teary eyes while their was no answer from his side this time.
'Will you believe me if I say that whatever happened ten years back was done by her intentionally ? Will you believe me if I say her intentions are still wrong ? No you won't and you know why ?' She asked him with tears rolling down her eyes.
'Because you trust your friends more than your so called wife.' She said and felt his grip getting tight on her.
Even though it was raining but he could easily figure out the difference between the raindrops which were coming from the clouds and the tears falling down from her eyes. He was having hard time controlling his anger and her tears were making it more difficult for him.
'I --- I trust you more than her.' He said honestly as he never trusted on what Sehrish said for Zoya a while back and she tried to smile. 'But whatever you are thinking is what the situation at that time made you think. She is not a bad ---' He tried to make her understand once again like always when she interrupted him. Rain was washing away his anger now.
'That means you don't believe me in this case and you don't care even.' She said and shrugged a little with a faint smile on her face while he was not understanding where this conversation was going. 'You never cared Asad , you never cared about what you did to me, about how you ruined our relationship , about what I have gone through all those years just because of you.' She said while sobbing a little and this was the limit of his patience.
'Why is it always about you ? Why is it never about me ?' He asked and she looked up at him confusedly. Her bangs stuck to her face and slightly tickling on her bare back.
'Atleast I was deserving a reply from you then I would have been able to understand what you wanted. You were the one who is always claiming me to be emotionally challenged then you should have came back by yourself right ? You should have known that I won't be able to convey my feelings easily.' He asked sternly while moving her closer to himself and her eyes couldn't leave his eyes full of emotions which were an inch away from hers and this was the first time when Zoya was thinking about what he had gone through all these years.
'I never thought that way.' She said in low voice sheepishly.
'Do you even know what your stupid games make others think ?' He asked angrily while she was understanding that he was pointing at Sameer for her earlier mistakes but wasn't understanding how she should tell him that she was never interested in him.
She opened her mouth to say something but closed immediately when he continued on his lecture. She tried to think for any other way still not aware of why
he was so angry on Sameer.
Go for it Zoya ! She tried to control her smile while looking at his lips and moved forward a little while wrapping her arms around his neck.
'No you don't because you only care about your stupid revenge ----' He was stopped by a peck on his wet lips by her. Just a touch of softness when she moved back leaving him stunned by her sudden move. Their was silence for next few moments when she finally spoke while controlling her eratic heartbeat and it was now when he was looking at her wet form.
'I wanted to tell you that --- I forgave you already and I hope you will also forgive me for my mistakes.' She said with a pout on her face while controlling her blush when she saw him gazing at her lips. 'I want to forget everything about the past --- ' She tried to change the topic but ofcourse it was time for Mrs Khan to pay back for what she left uncomplete when she finally felt his cold hands on her naked back and he leaned forward taking her lips for a real kiss while moving a strand of her wet hair away from her face. Yes, he couldn't resist from showing her what a real kiss is.
She smiled when he kissed her soft and sweet, passionate and romantic while pressing her body against his. She kissed him back just to feel his warmth as she was shivering in the storm. It was perfect, nothing could beat it. In that moment they both could easily tell how much they cared about eachother. Their were sparks and it was undeniable. Their was dominance from his side but she didn't care as this was perfectly what she wanted her first kiss to be. Yes, she wanted this ever since she saw him sleeping peacefully in the plane.
She felt dizzy and short of breath and that is when she loosened her grip on his hair and he finally moved back a little still holding her from her tiny waist.
'Ermm --- thank you.' words skipped from Zoya's mouth and she mentally killed herself as soon as she realized what she is saying and looked down while he controlled himself to not laugh at her silly antics. He moved her hair strands away from her neck while his other hand was making unknown patterns on her back.
'I hope you are not suffering from tachycardia again ?' He asked with a slight smirk on his face and she gave him a deathly glare for reminding her of her another silly mistake while he caressed her cheek with the same hand. His eyes fell on her swollen lips again but before he could lean down she hid her face in his broad chest while he smiled and hugged her tightly.
'Zoya --- I have to confess something --- actually ---' He started his stammering while Zoya rolled her eyes not able to believe that he was still having hard time in confessing. Indeed Asad Ahmed Khan was very bad in confessing his feelings and some things are difficult to change. She sighed while hugging him tightly to never let him go even if he loved her or not doesn't matter and he tried to look for some proper words in his dictionary to confess his feelings.
'You guys are still here ?' They both heard Vishaal's voice and moved back from eachother all of a sudden. They turned toward him and saw him holding an umbrella and walking towards Asad. Even before Asad could say she walked towards their car as she knew she wasn't looking presentable at the moment.
She turned on the heater in the car while he joined her after few minutes. The drive to home was done quietly as both of them were not understanding what should they talk about while Asad was secretly looking at her again and again which never went unnoticed by Zoya who was looking out of the window.
Shawl was indeed the right option. She thought annoyingly and a blush creeped up on her cheeks remembering their first kiss while he kept himself busy thinking about what Sehrish told him about Sameer.
--------------------------------------
They both tried to stay normal next day on the breakfast table but were ending up looking at eachothers lips again and again. No one else noticed the change in their behavior but ofcourse the Devil of the house Mr Ayaan Ahmed Khan did notice some strange behavior between both of them.
'Bhaijaan how was the party last night ?' Ayaan asked Asad innocently while Zoya concentrated on her toast.
'It was --- it was good.' Asad answered him and took his coffee cup from the table after keeping the newspaper back.
'Then why do I feel like something went fishy there ?' He asked his next question with a slight smirk on his face while Dilshad also looked at Asad now who was massaging his temples while Zoya was busy taking bites from her sandwich even though her mouth was already full.
'Why are you eating in so much hurry Zoya ?' Dilshad asked her with concern in her voice while Asad rolled his eyes when he saw her eating like a monkey.
'Maybe because she wants to hide something.' said Ayaan with a detective look on his face while Asad glared at him to not speak a word anymore.
'Maybe because you don't want me to help you in anything.' Asad snapped him back in low voice while Ayaan realized that his love case was still in Asad's hands.
'I was just kidding Bhaijaan.' Ayaan said and let out a sarcastic chuckle while Asad smiled in approval.
'Ami why there are no apples here today ?' Zoya asked confusedly while Asad was not understanding why she loved apples so much.
I wonder if she loves apples more than me. Wait ! Does she even loves me ? He thought and for a second got worried as she never confessed her feelings last night like him. Why is she waiting for me to say ? She can also confess first. He thought annoyingly while keeping fork and knife back on the plate.
'They are in the fruit basket there.' Dilshad said with a smile adorning her face and pointed towards the kitchen counter.
'Ami I also want apples. Can you cut some for me ?' Asad asked Dilshad while Zoya stopped before taking a bite from her apple.
'Allah Miyaan ! What's wrong with you Asad ? Why do you want to eat apples ?' She asked with a pout on her face while Ayaan and Humaira were busy in their breakfast now.
'Why can't I eat apples ? I have heard its good to eat an apple a day.' Asad told her casually while she glared at him for repeating her words.
'But not for you. You are not going to eat apples.' She said annoyingly.
'Why Dr Zoya ?' He asked innocently while she was not sure what should she answer him.
'Because I have done a great struggle to change you and I don't want you to go back to your Akdu Mode after eating apples.' She blurted out infront of everyone and shrugged a little while Dilshad smiled at them not aware of their private joke on apples. Asad flashed his dimpled smile understanding her hidden point bhind it.
She stopped eating suddenly at a sudden sneeze while Asad looked at her with concern and she cleaned her runny nose with a tissue paper.
'Wasn't it raining last night ?' Ayaan asked with a wide grin on his face as soon as he realized the reason behind their behavior.
