CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE :
After Three Months :
He asked about Zoya on reception and walked inside, crossing the corridor as fast as he could and stopped finally as soon as his eyes darted Zoya in the studio through the glass door. She wasn't singing but randomly going through the script of the song she was going to sing. He smiled as he entered the control room. The producer and the team finally took a sigh of relief.
'You are very late.' Mark said disappointingly.
'I just got stuck in traffic.' Asad told him as he looked at Zoya through soundproof mirror who was finally happy to see him.
'Where were you ?' She asked annoyingly in sign languages and he shrugged as he was not sure how to tell her about traffic issues in sign languages.
'Lets start it Zoe. Asad is here now.' Mark said through the headphones which were connecting them.
'Call her Mrs Zoya.' Asad pointed out while sitting on the couch nearby and Mark smiled before pressing some buttons on the keyboard.
'Yes Mrs Zoya Asad Ahmed Khan please start it now.' Mark corrected himself, taking her full name mischievously as like the whole studio he was also aware of Asad's possessive nature for Zoya. Asad smiled even though he wasn't interested in Mark's silly joke.
She started the song and Asad busied himself on his phone while Mark kept on telling Zoya what kind of rhythm he wants. She tried doing it perfectly as now she knew that she will be able to give her best when Asad was there. It wasn't like she wanted him to listen to her song, she just wanted him to be there always beside her, to support her.
It was her second song in last two months but still she was new to all this and taking time in learning everything. He smiled as he saw her lips moving rhythmically but no sound was reaching him as only Mark and the team were able to listen her.
He thought to tell her later on how much he loved this studio where she can speak whatever she wants and he won't be able to listen her continuous blabbering. He chuckled as he imagined her shouting to the extent of his limits in her ear for this joke and flipped few pages of the magazine.
After what seemed like an hour, they finally made their way outside the studio and he leaded her towards his car.
'I have to go to hospital, my duty hours. Where are you going ?' She asked him and he stopped in his way as she pointed towards her car on the other side.
'Oh ! I thought you might wanna go home so I finished my work earlier.' He said as he walked towards her, shutting the door of his side.
'Duty comes first Hubby.' She said cheekily and he smiled at her. 'And also I have to meet Nisha, my stomach is upset.' She told him while looking down, without telling him the fact that she is pregnant. She thought to tell him after confirmation.
'But why Dr Nisha for that ?' He asked confusedly as he knew Nisha was a Gynecologist. 'And did you eat anything stupid ?' He asked with concern in his voice.
'No, I just had breakfast before coming here.' She said, avoiding his first question and he was satisfied to know that.
'Do have your lunch on time.' He said as he stepped back to walk towards his seat again when she held his hand.
'Now what ?' He asked.
'You mind if I drop you home Dr Khan ?' She asked innocently while biting her lower lip and he smiled at her pick-up line before moving toward her.
'Why ? Haven't you ate your apples today ?' He snapped back sweetly.
'No I stopped eating apples for some reason. Its a new quote which I follow nowadays.' She said with a wide grin on her face.
'You mind telling me Dr Zoya ?' He asked in the same tone and smoothed back a strand of her hair.
'It says An apple a day keeps the doctor away.' She said and he smiled, knowing the obvious. 'But if the doctor is cute, forget the fruit.' She finished mischievously and he let out a soft chuckle while she giggled at his changing expressions.
'I guess I was already expecting something stupid.' He sighed and she smacked his chest. 'I mean does that even make sense ?' He asked and she rolled her eyes at him.
'Allah Miyaan ! What's wrong with you Asad ?' She exclaimed. 'Everything in the world is not supposed to make sense, its not a disease for which you are supposed to find the reason first and then the cure.' She explained and he massaged his temples for the lamest comparison.
'Alright !' He said to finish the topic.
'Good Boy.' She pulled his cheeks and he huffed before moving back.
'I am not a boy.' He mumbled, loud enough for her to hear and she made weird faces on his back which never went unnoticed by him. 'Sit in the car. I will drop you and I will tell the driver to pick up your car.' He said and walked towards his side.
'You are coming with me ?' She asked.
'Yes if Dr Nisha is free then I will join you or else I will go to Saad's office, its been so many days I haven't met him.' He told her his plan and she flashed her dimpled smile happily.
'I will be back after getting my bag and few files from my car.' She said and walked towards her own car. He nodded in yes and opened the door of his side. He shook his head and smiled, remembering how he used to get jealous of apples.
She joined him in his car and he dropped her at the hospital as she told him after confirming from Nisha that she was busy at the moment with few patients.
'I will see you at home in the evening. Be on time, I have to tell you something.' She said and pecked his cheek quickly before opening the door of her side.
'Is anything serious ?' He asked confusedly.
'See you later.' She said as she pretended to zip her mouth before the right time comes and he smiled, understanding that she will tell him only when she wants to. She walked out happily and he drove his car to Saad's office.
After an hour or two, he texted her to get ready when she is home as Saad invited them for dinner and she just replied back 'I love you' to him which made him smile and he thought to ask her the reason later on for these cute messages she was sending him one by one.
--------------------------------------
He shut the door of his car and his eyes stopped in the garden of the house. At first, he was shocked to see a girl in shorts randomly watering the flowers but the very next moment, he recognized the slender body was his own wife's. He looked at the guard who was away from the garden, busy in closing the main gate now. He took a deep breath as he walked towards the garden to give her a good lecture on clothes.
She was lost in watering the flowers, wearing very short white shorts that showed off her incredibly long and lean legs with a sky blue plain collar shirt on it making sure all her curves are visible. As he was coming closer, his anger was boiling up seeing her in that.
'What the hell is wrong with you ? Do you have any idea what you are ---' He asked sternly, lowering his voice as much as possible but was cut off by Zoya who turned towards him with the hosepipe in her hand. He stepped back to save himself from water coming through it but it was too late as the water flowed in his direction and he was left wet with his clothes soaked. He glared at her who was grinning like a fool now after finally achieving what she wanted.
'You look so hot in that wet look.' She said dreamily, to annoy him further and walked towards him with the pipe still in her hand.
'What are you doing ? And why are you wearing shorts Zoya ? What if Ami ot Ayaan saw you ?' He asked again, coming back to the point and ignored her gaze on his lips.
'No one is home Asad so I can wear it right ? And I was missing our first rain kiss but it didn't rain today.' She paused and sighed sadly while looking up at the dark clouds in the sky. It was late in the evening but still the sun had not set down yet. He looked up in her direction and for a moment felt pity for her but very next moment, he looked down at her clothes, realizing that this wasn't the thing he should allow her whatever the circumstances are. 'And then I told myself why fear when Zoya Asad Ahmed Khan is here.' She said as she shrugged proudly and he looked at her in disbelief, understanding very well now why she was using a hosepipe rather than a watering can.
'And why do you want it to rain ?' He asked in the same tone, forgetting the clothes for some time.
'So that we can kiss and celebrate.' She said and squeezed the pipe while pointing it to the sky which made both of them wet as water flowed down on them like a shower. He looked up at the pipe in her hand and then down at his dumb wife, who was looking breathtaking now in her sticky clothes with water going inside her shirt making him think about better things they can do at this time. He couldn't keep his eyes off her.
'Celebrate what ?' He asked calmly this time and his lips curved up into a sweet smile while looking at Zoya who was lost in any other world today, twirling and giggling, irritating him with water after every few seconds, enjoying the memorable moment which was unknown to him.
'I won't tell you so easily.' She said proudly and scrunched her nose as her tongue popped out before moving back from him. He tried to catch her while holding her from her back but she came out of his grip frequently and he laughed at her evil grin which she showed after running away from him, squeezing the hosepipe on his face and he quietly enjoyed the torture to make her realize that she was playing with his patience.
She stopped suddenly and chewed her lips as she walked closer to him again and encircled her arms around his neck as she couldn't control herself from telling him anymore, hosepipe still in her right hand and the water still flowing on them. He raised his eyebrow to know the reason before kissing her, ignoring the water dripping down her lips.
'I am pregnant.' She paused. 'One month pregnant, I just got to know today.' She said and took a deep breath while waiting for his reaction who was first confused at what he had heard and then was shocked as the realization dawned upon him.
'What ? Did you go for the check up ? Why didn't you tell me ? Is that why your stomach was upset ? What did she say ?' He asked as many questions as possible in one go.
'Ya Allah ! Asad just calm down. I am fine. My reports are inside you can go and check.' She said annoyingly. 'I am pregnant not suffering from --- anything serious.' She said and paused for a second when he glared at her before she can use any bad disease to describe herself. 'Aren't you happy ?' She asked with a pout on her face to change the topic.
'I am more than happy. I can't describe it.' He said with moist eyes while rubbing his hand on her soaked shirt to feel her stomach. It wasn't like they never discussed about kids but these feelings were new, he was feeling blissful and contented. She moved closer and hugged him, understanding his feelings very well.
'Are you sure you are ready for this ?' He breathed out in her wet hair which gave her a tingling sensation.
'Don't worry everything will be fine.' She said as she moved back and looked into his eyes. He nodded in yes as a smile occurred on his face before closing the little distance between them and caressing her wet lips with his own. Water drops falling from their lashes as they closed their eyes. He smoothed back the bangs stuck to her face as she positioned the hosepipe on top of them while pulling him closer.
His kisses were driving her crazy and making her go jelly but he held her tightly from her waist and her heart fluttered when her body got pressed with his body. They pulled apart when breath became a necessity and he traced his swollen lips with his fingertips while she breathed heavily.
'You know Ayaan was teasing me. I guess he is gonna tease you more.' She said to change the topic as his intense gaze was doing no justice to her heartbeat.
'About what ? Do they all know already ?' Asad asked and she nodded in yes, letting go the pipe.
'Yeah only Ami and Ayaan knows, they were going out for shopping and will be late so I couldn't control.' She said without mentioning Rashid as he knew that his father was out of town for some business conference. 'I had to call Humaira and I knew she won't be able to keep it from him so I just told them.' She said sadly but it didn't affect him at all that his family knew before him. He smiled signalling her to go on and she came to the point.
'They were shocked to know that its been one month so he was like my Bhaijaan is making up for the lost time. He is going on a super fast speed.' Zoya said and rolled her eyes to control her blush while Asad chuckled lightheartedly on Ayaan's humor.
'Well I guess I am making up for lost time.' He said mischievously and she glared at him. 'Don't worry I will handle him in my own way.' He flashed his dimpled smile.
'You and handle him ?' She asked in shock as she knew he was always tongue-tied when it comes to Ayaan's jokes, specially after they came back from Paris last month. 'But don't worry our time is also coming near.' She said and giggled while thinking about something.
'Time for what ?' He asked and she smirked, pointing towards Ayaan-Humaira's wedding.
'We can always take revenge. I won't let him stay in peace.' Her face lightened up with the thought of teasing Ayaan and he shook his head, feeling bad for his little brother as he was already aware of Zoya's evil side.
His hand moved up to her stomach again. She waited for him to say something when he was busy looking at her flat tummy.
'I hope its a girl Zoya.' He said as his hands rubbed it again.
'I hope so too.' She said as they had discussed about it already. 'I will pray day and night to have a girl first.' She said dramatically.
'And I will pray day and night to have a boy first.' He said stupidly as he knew she wants a boy first and she laughed out loud. He enjoyed her chirpy voice as his hands encircled her waist once again.
'I love you Zoya.' He said all of a sudden.
'I love you too Asad.' She said as she brushed her nose against his before kissing him once again. It was a sweet and simple kiss which turned into a passionate one, once again.
She moved back from him and ran inside as she couldn't control her desires anymore. He smiled as his hand went into his wet hair before walking after her.
They couldn't make it to dinner at Saad's place that night. Well you can say they were 'preoccupied', celebrating the day on which their lives were totally entwined with each others.
We are bound together for eternity ,,
Our Lives Entwined forever as ordained by the God(s).
