Asad's heart is pure. Asad's conscious is clear. When Asad hugs Tanu, he doesn't think or feel weird about it because he knows that Tanu is just a friend. His relationship with Tanu is very clear to him. It's never a romantic touch but friendly--So when Asad came to the living-room today..he had absolutely no problem with him and Tanu together. I am pretty sure that it didn't even cross Asad's mind that he was doing something odd with Tanu by holding her the way that he was. I truly believe that in Asad's mind being close to Tanu physically wasn't any absurd thing..It wasn't like he was doing something wrong and then Zoya noticed him and he withdrew his hand from Tanu with Oh no, I am busted kinda moment! So why did Asad take away his hand from Tanu when he wasn't even doing anything wrong?...we all know the answer..It was because of Zoya..See, Asad had no problem with his gestures with Tanu but the moment he realized that his closeness bothered Zoya..he took action..Even when Asad believed that his actions weren't wrong..he still changed his actions just because his Zoya didn't like it!!! What matters to Zoya matters to Asad now! His closeness with Tanu which was never an issue before is an issue now and Asad chose Zoya's emotions over his mind that could have said that No, I am not doing anything wrong--why should I change! Asad wasn't guilty..he really didn't do anything wrong..if Zoya hadn't acted that way, Asad may have held his best friend a little longer? But Zoya means more to him than his childhood friend..he withdrew his support from his physically hurt friend because he couldn't see his Zoya in any emotional hurt or pain!
Many people wrote today that Zoya was jealous--No, Zoya wasn't jealous..she was hurt and Asad sensed it! Zoya used to get jealous of Tanu and Asad would enjoy that jealousy and smile but not even for a minute he would intentionally do anything or smile about something that would hurt Zoya..
I love how Asad read Zoya's eyes today..the moment Asad saw Zoya..he knew that something was off about Zoya..and when he realized the reason for Zoya's change of behavior..he took action! Asad is a very sensitive gentleman. Asad was quick to detect and respond to the signal that Zoya was giving him. Zoya's joy means so much to Asad now--the whole time when Asad was looking at the pictures, he was also looking at Zoya..he wanted to see Zoya smile or a change in her mood..but Zoya was too hurt to respond and Asad noticed it! I am looking forward to watch how Asad is gonna act after Zoya verbally lets Asad know that she doesn't like Tanu coming close to her Jahanpanah!
Today I noticed a different dimension in AsYa's relationship..growth in their relationship..They understand each other's silence..they have surely come a long way..their relationship is growing everyday..their love is getting stronger everyday...Their love is getting deeper and deeper every minute!!!
Asad and Zoya spend so much time together..they spend more time with each other than with any other family members..they are always together..getting mad at each other, arguing, pushing each other's buttons, loving, caring, getting romantic, criticizing each other, teasing, annoying, irritating each other and the list goes on...but whatever they do, they are always around each other..they are always together.. So spending time with each other has definitely helped them to know each other better..they are still getting to know each other..it's not like they have reached there yet..but everyday they are getting to know each other more and more..
And I just realized that I have ended up writing this post a little bit too long than I expected..haha..can't stop writing about these two..totally in love with AsYa!!!
And hey, before I go..just wanted to share the Word of The Lord for y'all...one of my favorite scriptures from The Bible..this one is always a good reminder..so here it is:
"...for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My hold on you)! [Assuredly not!] So we take comfort and are encouraged and confidently and boldly say, The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm [I will not fear or dread or be terrified]. What can man do to me?" (Hebrews 13:5, 6)
Anyways, Good Morning/Happy Thursday to all my India Forum family members in the east..and Good Night to all in the west..Love y'all!
