ASAD: Why did I lie?

He was baffled.

He really couldn't explain himself.

He had decided that it was best for her that they parted.

Yet, when it came to it, he couldn't let her go!

He had convinced himself that he wouldn't intervene.

That he wouldn't cloud her decision in anyway.

His heart had begged, yet he had been in control.

If she was to stay, it had to be her own decision, made of her own free will.

For he could not guarantee happiness for her.

He wanted to save her from the pain of unrequited love- loving him would turn out to be another tragedy for her.

That was all he had wanted.

To keep away from her, to keep that smile on her face.

Yet, he had failed, despite his best intentions.

His heart had done a somersault when she declared she wouldn't be going.

Still, he had persisted, if she had to stay, it couldn't be on a whim.

So he had challenged her.

And then he was suddenly afraid.

What if she had to go, when she wanted to stay?

He couldn't bear to see those tears again.

It was clear that she wanted to stay back.

For her phoophi? For her tamatar? For ... ?...let it not be so...

So when it came to the toss, he had grabbed the coin to his surprise!

For her? For himself?

He did not know.

But he had gone weak- for her.

There was only one thing he knew.

That glee on her face! It was totally worth it!

And the peace that filled his heart now, knowing she was safe next door- it was pure heaven!

(The rest was up to Ms. Farooqui- for she was the one who claimed to know the answer to every question!😆)

But this was one question he wished she stopped asking.

He knew the answer, only too painfully well.

"One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life."
Kahlil Gibran

For Zoya:

"The Reality of The Other Person Lies Not In What He Reveals To You, But What He Cannot Reveal To You.
Therefore, If You Would Understand Him, Listen Not To What He Says, But Rather To What He Does Not Say."

andhere mein tum wo roshni ho jise dekhke mere akhe chamak uthte hai
asu mein chupe tum wo muskurahat ho jise dekhke mere sare thakan chale jati hai
sunsan zindagi mein tum wo geet ho jise sunkar dil machal se jate hai
nishabd nadi mein tum wo behti dhara ho jise sunkar mann bawla ho jata hai
hulchul bhare dunia mein tum wo shanti ho jise mehsos karke dhadkane tez ho jate hai
barsat mein tum wo rangin bahar ho jise mehsos karke ye jivan jhum uthte hai
mere naino mein tum wo husn ho jise sirf palko pe bithae rakhne ka iccha hota hai
mere atma mein tum wo saya ho jisse harpal mujhe ek nayi parchayi milte hai
i hope it ws not dat bad🤢

Why did he lie?
My question is Why wouldn't he lie? Pyaar mein sahi galat nahi hota!

Remember the first time this toss thingy happened?

Asad's phone broke when Zoya took a catch of it.

If Zoya took the catch then it would definitely meant a tails for the poor guy!
So he was adamant on taking it mid air.

And here you go, he wouldn't let Zoya anywhere. He cant speak those words out but he makes it clear that he doesnt want Zoya to leave, also to this conscience that yes i tried my best to stop her.

And it also symbolizes that Zoya would always be confused to take a decision but Asad will always do so, like a guardian and the lying of the verdict signifies he will take the decision on Zoya's benefit and side always.

And also i would like to see a Zoya soon who would introspect Asad's actions and then come to a conclusion where she realizes that he too feels the same feeling what she feels for him. 😳

Cake for you

Asad : Agar aapko jaana nahi hain tho aapne apna bag kyun uthvaya mujhse!!

This part Cracked me up 🤣
