AsYa OS - Never Again :
Zoya's P.O.V
As he walked into the room, bearing yet another stuffed teddy-bear to add to my collection, I managed a weak smile. It hurt so much to talk, but I just had to tell him.
"Asad, I..."
His eyes met mine and he sunk into the same chair he's been living in for 6 weeks.
"I do-don't think I can do this much longer..." As my eyes began to water, Asad grabbed my hand and squeezed it.
"No, you can. You are going to keep fighting Zoya, and you're going to pull through. You will." Now we both had teary eyes.
"We're going to get married, and live in my house. We'll have 2 little girls who we will spoil and adore." Asad took a shaky breath. "And we'll have a cat, and we'll name it Spot. We'll grow old together and watch the children of our children start to grow. And we will never be apart. Okay?" Asad gripped my hand tighter, as if it was the only thing keeping me from slipping away into the darkness.
I slowly raised my free hand, and caressed his prickly cheek, wiping away his tears.
"Asad you know it's nearly time..." My voice was becoming a whisper, I was so weak.
"No! You aren't leaving me Zoya. We have so much left of our lives!" Asad was now laying on my bed, holding me close. Using the last ounces of strength I had in me, I turned myself to face him, and kissed him with all my might. The kiss was gentle, yet one of the most passionate things we've ever shared between each other.
"Asad, I love you so so so much..." I whispered in his ear weakly running my fingers over his face.

This can't be happening... No. My angel is not leaving me. I hugged her closer and replied to her.
"Zoya, I love you more than anything in this world. You're the sunshine to my rainy day, the light to my dark and your and this precious smile of yours, are my world." I looked her in the eyes, tears running down both our faces, and watched her smile for the last time.
Never again, would i see her beautiful face, full of happiness and liveliness. Never again, would I be able to look into her deep brown eyes, and watch them sparkle in the light. Never again, would her giggle melt my heart, or her nose twitch cause me to laugh. In fact, I would never laugh again.
Never again would we able to kiss, and roam our hands through each other's hair. Never again, would we kiss in the rain, after arguing over the silliest of things. Never again, would we embrace each other.
Never again, would we cuddle up on the couch watching films together. Never again, would we have a popcorn fight in the cinema, and run away to hide. Never again, would we be so intimate with each other. Never again, would we be the same.
I ran my hands over her dry lips, her smooth cheeks and kissed her eyelids. I gently caressed her smooth scalp, that was free of hair. I picked up her hands, and gently clasped them over her stomach. Then, I began crying again. Crying like I've never cried before. All the memories and the love I had for Zoya, were streaming down my face never wanting to be forgotten. I held her close and didn't want to let her go. Ever. I put my hand under her back, so that I could lift her into my arms. As I did, I felt something crinkle. It was a piece of paper... A letter, actually... Addressed to me... In her curly handwriting.
To my love, Asad,
We both knew it was going to come to this, I just don't think either of us wanted to admit it... Ever since I was first diagnosed, I just knew in my heart that I wouldn't make it. Even the doctor said it, the cancer was just too aggressive. But no, I kept fighting my hardest, because you are everything worth living for and more.
When we first kissed under that lamppost in the park, I remember the fireworks that exploded when I felt your lips gently move in sync with mine.
When you took me to that fancy restaurant and asked me to be your girlfriend, I remember feeling so shocked, that you would even think of dating me.
I remember on our first anniversary, when you sung a song to me, and I sat there, crying.
I could see her tear stains on the paper, and continued reading, combining my tears with hers.
I remember our first time together. It was the most magical and loving thing I've ever experienced and I am forever thankful that it was with you.
Asad, when you proposed to me 3 months ago, on our fifth year anniversary, I agreed immediately, because I could never imagine my life without you. But now, by the time you're reading this, I am gone. Peacefully sleeping along with my parents and your grandfather. I will always watch over you, because I want your life to be happy. Don't dwell on what has happened, my darling. Just keep thinking forward. Find new love, have a family and do all the things we never got around to. I will always be in your heart. Think of me as your guardian angel, keeping you safe.
I love you always and forever Asad, never forget what we had, and never forget the memories. I'm sorry things happened like this, I love you. You would have been the best husband I could have asked for.
Loving you forever, Zoya.
I shakily put the letter in my back pocket, lay down against my angel, and cried. I felt a warmness in my heart, and knew that it was her, my angel, Zoya, showing me she'll always be there for me. Forever.

A/N :
*Wipes tears* That was a sad story to wrIte. I need a moment please.
Okay so, first of all, I hate Qubool Hai for killing Asad, Zoya and Najma, my favourite characters. But it was necessary for the leap.
And I'm actually excited for the leap, I got a good feeling about it. But, i'm never going to stop writing stuff on AsYa unless they delete this forum (Lets hope never).
I know I didn't make the ambience better by killing Zoya, but you know, I LOVE WRITING SAD STORIES! (Point to be noted).
I should get an award for 'The Most Sad Stories Written' LOL!
Anyway the reason I updated today was, because...
IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!! WOHOO!!! I'm officially 20 Today on 20th April! (Hitler's Birthday Too LOL!)
Okay I don't know what time it is where you're living right now, but here in London it's 10:32pm (You'll probably read this later which means it isn't exactly 10:32pm right now in London) and there's 1hr and 28 minutes till my birthday ends.
And I updated because I really wanted to write. So for my birthday treat I gave you guys a one-shot and i'm going to update 'Arranged Love' in a few minutes, because I already typed it up :)
Okay you should give me a birthday gift too, so for my birthday gift, I want an update from all my friends and to continue their work in progress.
If you don't write stories, I want you to try writing one at least, because i'm sure it'll turn out great :)
Okay I think that's enough of my 'Bak-Bak' so i'm going to go now.
Hope you liked it, If you did please hit that 'LIKE' button down below (OMG, I sound like a YouTuber LOL!). And do leave your feedbacks about this one-shot :)
I'm going to go for now, BYE! :) Stay happy.
Love,
Fareen XOXO
