He tossed and turned in his sleep ; again. He just could not get her thoughts off his head . This incessant interruption had lead to bags forming underneath his eyes .
He clearly remembered her animated expressions on getting caught while planning his birthday , she was just so transparent , everything was on her face as was in her heart and mind.
"Appi wanted you to smile , she wanted you to feel happy and loved . She wanted you to be free of your unwarranted hatred and pain . Yes , somewhere , this would affirm her belief that Jiju was innocent . What was malicious about this ? " Noor had lashed out at him in the hospital .
Zoya had crumbled due to the stress and pain . She couldn't take it and that had taken a toll on her health .
"Why are you so adamant on inflicting your pain ? You think only you have these emotions . Appi has lost her husband too. I admit she's naive and doesn't accept the circumstances in which Jiju was found but that's because she's loved him so earnestly . What is your goddamn problem if she lives in a bubble . It's her life , Mr.Hooda . This'll be the last time I'm going to be civil , stay out of her life."
And that was a week ago and since Aditya hadn't been to the office nor had he contacted Zoya . But Zoya was always present in his thoughts . Without Zoya his life had been thrown off track again . He realized how dependent he'd become on Zoya for his normalcy . He had nothing to do without her . He was so lost , again . He had no one to go to when Pooja's thoughts came back to him . He had no one to irritate , to protect, to do stupid things with again . He had nothing to look forward to in the next day .
Arjun had informed Adi about Zoya being discharged . He wanted to see her but his inflated sense of pride and ego forbade him to show that concern. Of course he could go about without Zoya . Who was she to him anyway?
The nights had a different story to narrate though . In the deep recesses of his heart he knew this unnamed connection between them had much more importance than his conscious self would agree to.
He picked his phone and he dialled her number . "Aditya Calling" flashed on her screen . She was reluctant but picked his call .
"Hello"
"Zoya" He sighed .
"Ji"
"Kaisi Ho?"
"Hum Theek Hain Shukriya. Aap?"
"Ab Ho Jaaunga " He cut the call realizing the gravity of the words he had just said .
He couldn't do without her . Whatever their souls were made of his and hers were the same .
