BANNER CREDIT- ImmortalLove😊

"I will let you know, Mr. Will !!" Asad said with a grave expression on his face.

"Okay, I really want you to come there...young, budding talents like you is what i need!!" Mr. Will shook Asad's hands and took his leave. Asad turned around and saw a shocked Zoya standing there. It was as if someone has freezed her on the spot. Her face looked blank and she stood like a statue.

"Zoya..." Asad whispered, but before he could make it to her, she turned back on her feet and rushed out. Asad immediately briefed Azaad and followed Zoya to their hotel.

ONE HOUR LATER:

Zoya was sitting hugging her knees close to herself, in the balcony attached to her hotel room. She looked at the dark sky above her which seemed to mock at her. Her life, no matter how hard she tried, always took a wrong turn. Now, when she was sure that everything was going fine and finally when happiness was about to knock at her door, again everything was ruined. She has to lose the one whom she'd come to love once again...she had to lose her Asad, around whom her life revolved. She didn't know whether she was sad or happy. Her mind said that she should be happy that Asad's talent is getting appreciation and someone so famous has approached him but her stupid heart cried on its fate, even before confessing his feelings, Asad was going to go away.

"Zoya?" Asad slightly touched her arm while she put a fake smile on her face.

"Asad! You came back so early? Anyways, congratulations!!! You are getting such a nice chance...se I told you na...you are the best!!" Zoya hid her sad emotions and encouraged him.

Asad sighed and sat down close to her. He looked into her eyes and spoke, "You can't lie Zoya..."

Zoya hung her head low and when she looked up into his eyes, she couldn't hold herself back. Her eyes filled with tears and she flung herself upon him, "Don't go Asad!! I won't live without you...I won't!! Please...How will I live??" she hugged him tighter and tighter, like he'll disappear if she let him loose.

Asad soothed her and held her just like that while she cried. He whispered sweet nothings into her ears. Finally her cries subsided after few minutes but she still held onto him.

"Asad, don't go please..." she said in a broken voice, burying her face into his chest.

"Zoya, will you listen if I say something?" Asad said and the sincerity in his voice made Zoya to look at him.

"Zoya, since the day we started living together till now, I have given you only sadness...no,let me complete!!" he pleaded, when he saw Zoya shaking her head in denial.

"Zoya, you did so much for me...every step, every move...you held me...cared for me. I have no shame in saying that you are the one whom I owe my life...my everything. Aaj main job hi hoon sab aapki wajah se hoon!!" he smiled while Zoya looked dazed at his confession.

"Zoya, I know I am not worthy of you, even if I spend my life learning to be as compassionate as you then too I can't think of doing whatever you did for me. I have only taken your care and love for me...now it's my turn Zoya...my turn to repay!!" he spoke.

Zoya just shook her head, "No! No...you think I did all this to gain something? I just want you to be with me...I don't want anything else."

"I am sorry! I didn't mean that way...I want to do something Zoya, I want to become something on my own, for you, for us!! So that I can proudly introduce myself as your husband!!" he winked in the end to make the atmosphere light.

Zoya smiled despite herself, "You are too much!"

"Let me go Zoya..." he pleaded.

"Asad?" she held his arm tightly.

"I want to give you everything in this world and for that I have to be successful...and this opportunity, this is my chance!!"

Zoya thought for a while and then gasped, "Asad! Why are you going? Why don't you join your own business?"

Asad distangled himself from her and stood up. He walked away and leaned onto the railing of the balcony. Zoya walked upto him and held his hand tightly.

"I don't have such qualifications Zoya...I had somehow completed my schooling but...I never went to a college. I am not a graduate Zoya, I-I am a loser..."

"No, Asad! Don't think like that..." she killed herself for bringing up that matter inspite of knowing the truth. "Asad, everyone doesn't excel in the same field...you have a great talent of painting...it's something that not everyone has!!"

"I know you are boosting my moral !! But you are saying all this because you...you are my wife, my friend...but others, they'll call me a loser only. I can't handle the business because I don't have the capability and even if I had, I wouldn't have worked for something that took away my mother...that money...all those wealth...that was the reason my mother was killed!! Let me go Zoya, if you cry I won't be able to go..."

Zoya wanted to hold him and deny at an instant but she saw the helplessness in his eyes...how much he wanted to be someone the eorld recognized, whom she can be proud of!! She never thought that he would think so much. As much as she wanted to say no, she didn't have a heart to break his trust in himself...for the first time she had seen such determination in his eyes. She sighed and said, "Go!"

Asad waited while she decided and his happiness knew no bounds when she said a yes. He hugged her tightly, "Zoya...I am so so happy!! Thank you...thank you!! I will just call and inform Mr. Rizwan...he'll convey it to Mr. Will..." Asad left her and turned around to go.

Zoya felt him leaving her and then his hand slipping out of hers. She tried to neglect the feeling but the heaviness in her heart grew. "Asad...won't you just say once that you love me? That you'll never forget me once you go there..." she thought to herself.

As if sensing her turmoil, Asad turned around midway and ran upto her, he cupped her face and spoke in his husky voice, "You wait for me Zoya...I will come back...soon!!" Something in his eyes assured Zoya that she's not going to lose him as she'd lost all her relations...he's not the one to betray...he won't forget his angel.

SHIMLA, FEW DAYS LATER:

Asad was tired after frequent shopping trips which Zoya was engaged in these days. It had been confirmed lately that Asad was going to New York for next one and a half year. Zoya had made such a fuss since that day. She started treating him like a VIP, always prepared his favourite dishes, shopped loads and loads for him, gave him long lectures on how to deal with the people there and if that was not enough she cried sometimes, overwhelmed by all these emotions.

As much Asad was happy initially, with each day passing, he felt a darkness looming in his innerself, he felt skeptical to leave Zoya like this. After she had come into his life, he hadn't been away from her, just except the days when she went away. He shivered thinking of the days which he spent without her. His enthusiasm died when he thought of spending such a long span without her.

Zoya returned home to find a pondering Asad sitting on the sofa. She walked upt him and sat down, "Asad?" she called out on noticing that he hadn't realized her presence yet.

"Huh? Zoya...when did you come back?"

"Just now! Where were you lost?"

"Nothing..."

"You can't lie, Asad."

"I can't live without you Zoya..." he spoke with a subtle heaviness in his voice.

"Why fear when I am here!!!" she bowed down exaggeratedly in front of him while he smiled at her antics..."How much he was going to miss her beautiful face and funny antics all these months when they'll be apart..."

"See, this is what I bought for you!!" she said taking out the laptop she'd bought for him, out of the leather bag. Asad curiously ran his fingers over it.

"I'll teach you how to use it...okay??" she asked smilingly.

"But when? I am going..." He said dejectedly.

"Ohho Asad! There are still ten days left..." She said, her voice breaking at the end.

Asad shifted closer and side-hugged her while she cleared the lump in her throat. "Asad, this will keep us closer..."

"How?" he asked confusingly.

"See..." And she spent next few hours briefing Asad to operate the machine. She made a skype accout for him and taught him to use it. Asad was happy on the prospect of being able to see her, even from miles away.

"This is the best gift for me Zoya. I can't tell you how I feel right now...we will be able to see each other...I-I ..." he was overwhelmed that how she understands him so well. He was just thinking how will he survive without seeing her angelic face first thing in the morning and here she made an arrangement to meet face to face. He was feeling more comfortable now that she was just a click away...

"Asad, don't forget me once you go there." She said sadly.

"Never!" he assured her smilingly. "Aur waise bhi ab toh apne mujh pe nazar rakhne ka intezaam bhi kar liya hai..." He laughed when she rained her tiny fists on his chest while whining.

"Okay...okay! I was just kidding Zoya. I won't forget you ever!! Who can forget that his life is waiting for him...with arms wide open. You are my destiny and ultimately I am bound to come back to you." Asad looked into her eyes and spoke his heart out.

Zoya felt her heart soar when he spoke those sweet words for her. She wanted to tell him that how much she loved him but she held herself back. This was neither the perfect place nor the moment she wanted. She will wait for him to come back...so that she can freely have him all to herself. She'll captivate him in her love...never letting him go...even for a second.

Her heart went wild thinking of a love and happiness filled future with him. As much as she wanted to stop but her senses were over-powered by her emotions...she couldn't help herself from cupping his face and capturing his lips in hers.

Asad was shocked for a moment but then he closed his eyes and responded. He thought back of the day when they kissed first...he kissed her. She bit his lips and he came out of his thoughts. Both continued savouring each other till they were out of their breaths.

A NIGHT BEFORE ASAD'S DEPARTURE, DELHI:

Zoya was trying to be brave but she was failing miserably. Each time she faced Asad, she looked at him with such a sad look that he was finding it hard to leave her and go. On top of it, his own anxiousness of leaving everyone behind and going to a completely new place, full of strangers terrified him. They ate whatever they could gulp down, in silence and Zoya started picking up the pillows and settling them on the sofa for her to sleep. Asad came to her and caught her wrist.

"Stay!!' he said, more like pleading.

Zoya complied simply and they sat on the bed. Asad placed his head in her lap while few tears dropped from his eyes. Zoyawho was ruffling his hairs, felt him shaking.

"Asad? Asad...what happened? You...you are crying?" she asked panicked at the sudden change in his demeanour.

"Zoya...you were right...how will I live without you all?? I need you...no one will be there. What if someone tried to harm me?" he said in a raspy voice.

"Asad...no! Nothing will happen. I will always be in contact with you...whenever you feel sad, we'll skype!! Please don't get worried..."

"I will miss you..." He said in an innocent tone of voice.

"Me too..." she said.

"See what I have got for you!!" Zoya exclaimed all of a sudden.

She took out her handbag and drew out an album which contained all their photographs from day one. Memories Of Asad & Zoya', she had written on the cover in her beautiful hand-writing.

"I am giving you these Asad...our memories..."

Asad lovingly turned the pages of the album and they teased each other while seeing the pics. Their every memory helped them to come out of the grief of being apart. "For a while...for Zoya!" Asad thought to himself.

"Not fair!! You'll have everyone to take care of you and I'll be alone there..."Asad complained while pouting.

"No you'll never be alone, Asad. Just keep one thing in mind, not all people are bad...try to open up...judge them...you'll find so many friends!" she explained, as if telling a child who was going away from home for the first time and this literally was, for Asad.

"But what if I'll ever fail to judge what is right and what is wrong?"

"Then this will help you..." she picked up the Quran Shariff which she'd packed with his belongings and gave it to him. He bowed in front of it and placed it back securely. He took Zoya by her arm and pulled her to him. He laid down while Zoya put her head on his chest.

"You always know how to cheer me!!??" he said softly after a while, lovingly caressing her hairs.

"Hmm...because I love doing that!! I can't bear your sadness." Zoya replied instantly.

"And I can't see you being sad..."

"I know..."

"I will come back soon!"

"Promise?"

"Promise!"

"I wish you could have come with me..." He wished.

"You know I can't...I have to take care of everything here. I can't leave my responsibilities. If I was alone I would've tagged along without giving it a second thought."

Asad and Zoya clung on to each other while Azaad and Humi looked at each other, confused that how will they separate these two love-birds. Humeira remembered the day when she took Zoya away and she shivered on thinking if this time both will react in the same way.

"Zoya, let him go. It's time for his boarding to start..." Azaad tried shaking her out of her thoughts.

Zoya turned to Asad and held his collar and shook her head vigorously while her eyes shedded tears of pain. She didn't need words to convey her distress. Asad wiped her tears and pecked her cheeks lightly. He took out a box from his pocket and opened it in front of her. It held a beautiful bracelet on which was engraved in bold, TOGETHER FOREVER'.

Asad tied the bracelet on her wrist and kissed her knuckles. She put her head on his shoulder and cried her heart out while Azaad and Humeira watched teary eyed. Finally when Humi was unable to bear more of her cries, she separated her from Asad and motioned him to go. He looked uncertain but Humeira assured him with a blink of her eyes. He distangled his fingers from Zoya's hold slowly and shook his head while telling her not to cry. She immediately straightened up seeing his gloomy face and smiled faintly which in turn brought a smile on Asad's face. He walked upto the boarding gate and turned around once again.

He waved at Zoya and she waved back. He walked ahead and disappeared in the crowd while Zoya let her tears drop, unabashedly once again.
