Chapter 6

Crossing your Limits

13^th Nov 2012

Max Hospital

"Shazia Bhabhi, I will just wait in the reception lounge..kids scare me at this age" he winked at her, already helping the hospital get some female patients walking in that looking like a celebrity. They were there for Shazia's pregnancy check up and Zain had to accompany her after Fahad bailed out citing an important meeting. Shazia was NOT happy about that. And Zain had to bear her constant grumbling- mumbling all the way till here.

"If you want to go, tum bhi jao! Nikaah ke pehlay hi bhai jaise ho jao!" She walked away in a huff. Her phone was out the moment she turned. "Bhabhi and her WhatsApp" Zain mused.

He turned surprised to see a text from her when she was hardly 10 steps away from him in reality. But Shazia was already settled away in the waiting lounge, looking into her phone, texting furiously...one of her kitty party friends now.

He decided to move up his list to find Natasha. She had been upset with him since he never seemed to be available for her. She always texted him, called him and made plans which never seemed to materialize due to Zain's sudden busy schedule. He was sure her and Shazia Bhabhi would have a gala time discussing husbands'.

"Husband?" The word felt funny. Inappropriate and unsuitable. He had found it extremely weird when she had texted him about being Mrs Natasha Zain Abdullah. Though he had to play along since she seemed to be blushing pretty hard by the number of smileys she had sent along with it. The mental image of her blushing that hard had caused him quite a bout of laughter though.

~~~

"Aaliya, don't take so many painkillers from now on...in the long run they are so harmful beta! Just do what I prescribed. And eat!" The good natured doctor looked at her sympathetically. Aaliya nodded. She had fainted last night, after despite her complaining of a severe headache, her husband had continued holding conferences all night, preparing reports in their bedroom, telling her to make a lavish dinner because he suddenly felt like appreciating her cooking.

Earlier she used to submit obediently; scared but now she fought back, refusing to be treated like a servant and hence, violent huge fights ensued. But it was more liberating. She felt better about herself not giving in.

But for the past few 4-5 days, the fights had been taking a toll and she had stopped taking care of herself, not eating, not even going for her morning jogging and this poor routine had resulted in a drop of haemoglobin and her fainting.

She walked out, holding her report file and bag securely. She looked over at the large windows, which faced the hospital's garden, a heaven for the members of the old age home that the hospital housed.

She saw a familiar figure around the corner. Leaning against the glass, eyes glued to his phone screen, looking extremely handsome and dapper. Plaid shirt with blue jeans with aviators holding onto the button-hem had never looked this sexy.

He then shifted, eventually turning the other way. The sun was probably striking rays off his phone screen.

She felt very aware of herself all of a sudden. She took a look at herself in the glass fussing over her choice of grey shrug, white shirt and her navy blue denims. Chiding herself for not picking out a better outfit for her trip to the hospital, she decided to run before he spotted her.

She walked with hurried steps, but to her utter dismay, a stretcher came in her way, with the attendant asking everyone to clear the way.

~~~

Zain turned. He had just texted Natasha "Aaj main free hoon.." when an attendant told him "Side do bhaiya" and he moved. And his heart did a somersault as he thought he saw the one person who had been clouding his thoughts for so long now.

He ran, nudging an uncle in the way, as the figure moved swiftly towards the gate and out in the parking lot.

"Aaliya! Aaliya!"

~~

Aaliya groaned. "Thanks for the genes and short legs mom!" She practiced a fake surprised smile before turning to him.

"Heyyy!" Zain came to a halt, breath coming in short spurts now.

"Zain!! Tum yahan?" She had become good at playing pretend, after all.

"Main toh Bhabhi ke saath...tum? Sab khairiyat?" he asked concerned.

Aaliya's heart softened. Why was Zain such a contrast to her husband? Why did she see glimpses of her "man of her dreams" in this guy?

"Main theek hoon..bus kuch check up vagairah..bhabhi theek? Aur haan, Natasha kaisi?"

"She is fine..hopefully."

She raised her eyebrows in question. He smiled apologetically, "I have been kinda busy..so haven't been able to see her much..and she wants us to be together a hell lot of time!"

Aaliya smiled, fake scolding him, "Abhi se husband banne ki practice na karo tum!"

She suddenly felt weird. She didn't want to use that term. She was becoming insecure. She didn't want to lose a friend..and especially not him...

He decided to break the silence as he observed her go into her thinking mode all of a sudden.

"Ice cream khane chalogi?"

She looked up at him in surprise. "Ice cream?"

"Haan? Chalo na..aaj itne dino baad mile hai..plus main free hoon" he finished quickly.

"Natasha se mil lo na..wo toh.."

"She isn't free..I asked." He lied, without batting an eyelid.

"Ohh..then I have no reason to refuse, do I?" she shrugged smiling at him.

He smiled indulgently. "Tumhari car?"

"Zeeshan dropped me so I am all yours." She bit her lip the moment she realized what she has said hoping he wouldn't catch that.

He did, though. He had an indescribable look in his eyes as he opened the passenger side of the car and helped her in.

Aaliya took in the strong scent of the car, as he made himself comfortable and turned on the ignition.

They started talking about everything under the sun, the buses in front, the roads, she discovered his favourite dish was kebabs, he found out she loved gulabjamuns, her love for pets, his hate for cats...everything except her husband and his fiance.

His phone rang interrupting the flow. He motioned for her to pick up and she did. "Natasha" she said about to hand it to him. Instead, he asked her to end the call and text "Busy".

She frowned at him but complied. As she opened his messages, she realized he had a pending text from her that said "Never busy 4 u baby! Whr can we meet?"

Aaliya froze.

She realized Zain had blatantly lied to her. In fact, she was about to question him when another realization hit her. He was the one who had offered with the plan, and he was the one who had lied. To spend time with her, he had not made a plan with his fiance.

Feeling slightly guilty, she texted, "Something came up" and put back the phone quietly. She didn't know whether to feel happy about the way things were shaping up or get worried. She wanted to feel the way her heart was telling her to, she knew how Natasha would feel having experienced the same rejection from her husband numerous times. The situation was same, the circumstances different with her being on the opposite side and she gave in to her guilty pleasure.

What we desire is hardly ever in agreement with what is right.

They agreed to stop at some eatery rather than an ice cream parlour since it had started raining and roads were filling up as well.

The entered Candies to find it jam packed. It had started drizzling so a lot of people were crammed inside, and it was obviously a favourite time for the couples to enjoy.

They both had quickly gotten out of the car, trying to shield themselves from the pitter-patter, all the while Zain holding Aaliya at the small of her back. They walked in, his hand automatically finding hers, as they held hands for the first time, amongst those strangers in that crowded place.

Whether it was the AC blast that hit them, or their own hormones going crazy, they both felt goosebumps as their hands slipped into each others..

He placed their respective orders, while she silently observed his smart self take over and felt warmth envelop her as she blushed involuntarily. Maybe she liked being a rebel, maybe it was that frustration of doing something to her husband that he had subjected her to, maybe it was the excitement of doing something that made her content, maybe it was the thrill she felt when she was with Zain, whatever it was, Aaliya pushed it away from her moral conscience because she was, very very happy.

He had ordered burgers and truffles alongwith 2 mugs of steaming hot chocolate, causing Aaliya to look at the tray and back at him twice. Innocently she asked,"Tumhe bohot bhookh lagi haina?"

Zain, taken by surprise, grinned a full smile before sitting down beside her. They had managed to find a corner table and with extra seating, sitting opposite each other was not an option.

He took her burger, held her chin with his right, and force fed her smiling mischievously,

"Nahi ye sab tum khaogi!" while Aaliya made futile noises attempting to vocalize her refusal.

They ate and they ate a lot. They also laughed a lot. A couple of times Aaliya sneezed and the third time she did, her hair flying all over the place, Zain shifted right next to her, holding her by the shoulders. "Thand lag gayi haina? It will get worse..let's get out of here" he pushed away her hair from her face, his hands framing her face now.

Aaliya shivered. And not from the cold.

"Zain" she whispered.

He realized they had gotten quite close to each other, not knowing whether to curse or appreciate himself for such a move. She was obviously uncomfortable while he had lost all sense of right and wrong and was now trying to get close to someone who was married just as he was going to be..soon.

He moved back, gulping, his heartbeat crazy but hardly had he done that he felt her palm close around his wrist as she breathed his name.

Aaliya, not knowing what had caused her to do so, the moment she realized he was withdrawing, held him back. His wrist felt warm around her fingers. The hair peeking out from his shirt in contrast to her feminine slender fingers.

"Hmm?"

"Let's go somewhere..less crowded? Mujhe bearish pasand hai..and I have good company.." she added, hoping it hadn't crossed borders of flirting.

His expressions seemed to relax and his eyes cringed just slightly as his face took a slight smiling disposition.

He suddenly moved his face close to hers, very close. Aaliya could feel his breath almost fanning her face, her own hitched in her throat as she blinked raplidly in sync with her thumping heartbeats.

He didn't know what caused him to do that, but it definitely was not within the realms of "friendship".

Moving his thumb across her lips, he looked at her, eyes glinting with unfathomable feelings as he sucked it off saying, "Chocolate waste nahi karte". He winked, making her come out of her reverie as she quickly gathered her bag and they manoeuvred through the crowd, her hand again secure in his and walked out of the shop.

Just as he tucked her in the passenger seat and moved to the other side, Aaliya's phone

gleamed "Zeeshan calling"

~~~~~~

Precap: What happened to Zeeshan? Will Aaliya and Zain spend more time? Or is the end of their rendezvous?
