Oh my goodness!!! Remember the beginning of ep 13 where Basit is in the room with Ayesha at night and he cannot stop looking at Ayesha!? Now imagine if Ayesha is wearing something slinky! He would possibly go all red with smoke coming out of his ears! But I can also imagine Basit himself asking her to wear something once they have known each other in the Biblical sense! 😆 But yesss!!! Ayesha trying to tell him that she is ready through her choice of clothes would be such a cute thing to watch because both of them are so shy around each other!
Now Basit thinks Ayesha is cute, we have seen that already. That scene in the car when they were returning from Ayesha's mum's. Or when he found her reading that book on the couch. But he also had that intense hungry (for the lack of a better word!) look in ep 13 when he had turned off the light and was just looking at Ayesha lying there with her back to her. So I think what has been stopping him is the thought that she might not be willing or that by coming close to her he will give her false hopes. But now I guess, he will think that he needs to demonstrate his desire for her as part of the process of convincing her of his commitment to her. I am very eager to see how he does that because I myself am hitting a wall in this matter. In Habs so far the progress of their emotions towards each other has been built up so slowly and so logically that I am hoping the show will continue in this way. But then how will Basit make that leap from polite interest to izhar-e-mohabbat?!
Episode 13 was such a treat for us viewers!! You’re absolutely right, Basit was so nervous, he kept looking at Ayesha and it seems like he didn’t even know whether he wanted to lie down beside her or flee the room. I felt that he was waiting for some sign from her. But then when she asked him to stay in the room with the excuse that she didn’t want anybody to raise questions on their relationship, he immediately settled down beside her. He did look at her with hunger in his eyes though 😆 I kept wondering what was his thought process then? Would you be able to decipher what was he probably thinking about? It did look like attraction. I’ve always found Basit to be softer, more open and loving at night instead of during the day where he dons the persona of a powerful, in control businessman.
I think if Ayesha were to wear something slinky, Basit would blush and be appreciative in equal parts. Do you think these guys have ever even kissed or made out?
Yes, Basit will probably ask Ayesha or even gift her something once they become man and wife in the true sense. I’m assuming some days he would give her his credit card and ask her to buy something for herself despite her reluctance. He would then be waiting eagerly in his office for the notification of his card being used ☺️
And yes, Basit does find Ayesha cute! You rightly mentioned the episode numbers. I wonder if he’s fascinated by her dimples?
I think the reason that Basit hasn’t initiated any form of intimacy is because he’s never gotten around to it. His trauma obviously plays a huge part and I assume he never even realised the depth of his feelings for Ayesha before the entire MU, which is why she feels so unappreciated. I don’t think it had anything to do with Ayesha getting comfortable, he’s never given her needs enough thought but I’m hoping that changes now.
As for Basit demonstrating his desire for Ayesha, I think it would start with smaller touches, such as caressing her hair, tucking her hair behind her ear, perhaps keeping his arm around her waist and guiding her when they’re walking, staring deeply into her eyes and then a forehead kiss. I think once Ayesha displays her comfort with these smaller steps, Basit would proceed to give her a full blown kiss and then get on with other things. 😳
