HKKMJNM: Part 24a, Pg 145 - Page 41

Loved this update! I feel sorta annoyed and not annoyed by Hammad's character because the way he acts around Najma ...and Najma's bro Asad doesn't do much but when Asad or Akram do something to Zoya ...Hammad goes ballistic...hopefully everything is okay and none of it is Asad's fault! It might be Akram...idk! I also like how he stood up to Akram for Zoya ...it was like all the bottled up anger just burst. Which literally happened.

update????????????

Hello buddies. New readers buddy me if you want pms.

Old ones: Comment if you want pms for the next update. (Yes it is a threat.) I am going to be busy for the next week so no updates.

Recap

A: "I have something for you. I got you an Eid present."

Z: "Then why didn't you give it to me earlier?"

A: 'Didn't get time. Rather I wanted to give it to you here."

Z: "You didn't call me here. I came here myself."

A: "I knew you would come. Just wait here. I will be right back. It's in my car."

Part 17

He returned with a small box in his hand and placed it on her open palm. A huge smile crept on her lips when she opened it. It was a platinum band with "BFF" engraved on it like the one she had selected for Najma a long time ago but he had refused to pay. Only this one was even prettier.

Zoya in her excitement exclaimed.

"Oh my God Asad! I love you for this."

Asad silently said to himself.

"I love you too."

She snapped her fingers in front of his eyes and spoke.

"Hello! Earth to you Asad."

A: "Uh… err… you like it?"

Z: "Like it? I just said I love it."

A: "No you said you love me. You didn't say anything about this."

Z: "I said I love you for THIS."

A: "No you said you love ME for this."

Z: "Seriously what happened to buying expensive gifts is just absurd."

She tried to change the topic by imitating him.

A: "I decided I can bend my rules just for you Ma'am."

Z: "I am flattered Sir… I am sorry."

A: "Why? What happened?"

Z: "I didn't get you anything."

A: "I don't need any gift Zoya. Trust me, you being here means a lot to me, much more than any gift."

Z: "Chalo that's good then. This friendship is in my favour. You keep gifting me awesome things like this and my job would be just being there for you. Easy!"

A: "Not so. I am fine with the arrangement by the way. So deal?"

He asked her extending his hand for a hand shake.

Z: "Deal."

She replied shaking his hand.

Z: "So?"

A: "So, what?"

Z: "Why did you run away like that?"

A: "Just… I wanted to be away for a while."

Z: "Out with it now Asad."

He sighed and spoke after some time.

A: "I hate him. I hate Rashid Ahmed Khan."

Although she knew the reason she kept silent to let him speak, share his problems with her.

Looking straight towards the sea he spoke.

"He cheated on my mother Zoya. She was everything a perfect wife would be. Still he hurt her. He had an affair with another woman. She used to be his classmate."

He told her the whole story as Najma had told her along with his own additions.

"He sent the man you saw at college and were asking about. He thinks he can make up to us by sending money. We don't need his money. We don't need him at all."

They kept talking for a long time when Zoya looked at her watch and was shocked.

Z: "Oh my God! It's quarter past ten. Ammi would be dead worried."

A: "Oh my God! It's fifteen minutes past Cinderella's curfew."

Z: "It's not funny at all. I am in for a long boring lecture now and it is entirely your fault."

A: "How is it my fault? I didn't ask you to come."

Z: "The way you ran away, obviously I would have followed you."

A: "So you did come after me. Why did you lie before?"

Z: "We need to get home as soon as possible."

When they reached home, Ramu Kaka opened the main gate. Ramu Kaka was their house help but after thirty years of staying with them, he was more like a family member.

Rk: "Zoya bibi, Baji is really angry. She told me not to let you enter when you come back. She said you should sleep in the lawn tonight."

Z: "Oh no. I think I should call Hammad. Why are you standing here?"

A: "I have to pick up Tamatar, remember?"

Z: "Oh no. I forgot to take my cell along."

A: "Here take mine."

She took Asad's cell and called Hammad.

H: "You forgot your Tomato here."

Z: "Hammad it's me."

H: "Oye Zoe, What are you doing raat ke is pehr with a gher mard?"

Z: "Oh Shut up. Stop being a drama queen and let us in. And for God's sake it's just ten thirty."

H: "Well I am coming, would love to meet you one last time baby sister before Ammi murders you."

Z: "Open the back door, the kitchen one. I will enter and tip toe into my room. Subha dekhi jae gi."

H: "You are really smart. Ain't you? Come in."

He said as he opened the back door. Zoya entered and tip toed up-stairs to her room. She quietly closed the door behind her and muttered.

"Thankyou Allah miyan."

Her mother's stern voice startled her all of a sudden.

"Young lady. Come here and explain."

She was sitting on her bed.

"Hammad Kamina. He could have told me." Zoya thought to herself as she moved towards her mother.

"Yar. I am so damn bored."

Hammad complained as he sat down beside her on the sofa and snatched the remote from her.

"Hey!" Zoya yelled. "I am watching…"

"Was watching." Hammad interrupted as he switched the TV off.

Z: "Okay was watching…"

H: "Whatever. Let's go watch a movie."

Z: "I have test tomorrow."

H: "Nerd! I'll go call Tamatar."

Z: "On a second thought. Call Asad too. Let's all go together."

H: "Okay."

A: "So which movie have you guys decided to watch?"

H: "Salma pe dil aa gaya."

A: "Oh shut up."

H: "He doesn't want anyone else to watch his Salma. Such is his love."

Z: 'Let's go inside. And we are watching YJHD. Asad no arguments."

H: "I'll go get the tickets."

Halfway through the movie Hammad noted Asad's attention was not on the screen in front of them. Rather he was gazing at something to his right. Dang, he was totally absorbed staring at Zoya's face oblivious to the rest of the world.

An evil smile crept on Hammad's face as he tapped Asad's shoulder. He got startled for moment but recovered the next second.

H: "That scene where he was talking to the hero's younger sis on the sea-side was so heart-touching."

Asad's mind wandered off to his and Zoya's conversation at the sea-side. He spoke without thinking.

"Yah."

Hammad spoke in a serious tone.

"The hero has no younger sister. Are you even watching the movie?"

A: "Err…no…yah. I need to take this call."

He got up and left the cinema.

Zoya saw him leaving and asked Hammad.

"Where did he go?"

H: "To answer a call."

Z: "Okay."

Hammad banged the door open and entered Zoya's room.

H: "Oye Nerd! You are studying in such an awesome weather. Come downstairs."

Z: "I am coming. You leave."

H: "Are you very rudely dismissing me? Because it did look like that to me."

Z: "Yes I am. Close the door behind you."

H: "Something wrong?"

Z: "I just can't memorize all these drugs. The pharmacology professor is such a…"

H: "Beep. You need a break. Get up."

Z: "No I have a test and…"

He took her hand and pulled her out of her room.

"Come with me and tell Baba how important it is to go on a picnic once in a while. He listens to you."

"Zoe tell Hammad and Ramu Kaka to place the luggage in the car. Call your mother downstairs and ask Asad and Najma how long they would take to reach."

Zubair passed on instructions to Zoya and then continued talking on his cell. They were going to Mahabaleshwar for two days. Hammad had been pestering Zubair for an outing since he was free from his university for two weeks. He had finally given in to his plan.

They were finally on their way with Zubair, Sarah and Hamza in one car and Zoya, Hammad, Najma and Asad in the other.

H: "All you lazy people. Come on let's go hiking."

N: "We have had a long journey. I am resting for now."

H: "Is there anyone here who is not boring?"

Z: "Hiking seems like a good idea. I am up."

A: "Yeah let's go. Come on Tamatar. You'll enjoy."

H: "Yes come on Tamatar."

N: "Najma! Bhai how many times should I tell you not to call me Tamatar in front of him?"

H: "Somebody is really annoyed. Guess we should leave you alone. Enjoy Hamza's company Tamatar. Let's go guys."

As they got ready and moved outside, Zoya looked towards the sky and said.

"Looks like it's about to rain. I think we should go back."

H: "Oh come on Zoe. Be a sport."

Z: "Fine."

H: "Let's race up to the top. The other two will have to do whatever the winner says."

A: "Wait till I beat you."

Z: "Overconfidence much!"

As they started their race, each one was more eager than the others to reach the top of the hill first. About half way through Hammad placed his shoe on Asad's from behind causing his shoe-lace to open. He passed him and shouted over to him.

H: "Asad tie your shoe-lace or you will fell down."

As Asad bent over to tie up his laces Zoya passed him too. Just then the clouds above thundered loudly. After some time it started to rain heavily.

Hammad had left them both far too behind. Needless to say, he had cheated his way up by making them busy in one way or another. After tying his shoe-lace Asad hurried to catch up with Hammad. He took another route which was more dangerous but shorter. As a result he moved away from Zoya. As the weather turned uglier small stones started to move down with the small streams of water. Zoya placed her foot on a rather unstable rock and it slipped from its position. She lost her ground and slipped. The wet ground wasn't making things any easier as she went down. She tried to regain her balance but kept slipping down as the rocky path and the vegetation bruised her badly. Hammad and Asad both looked down when they heard her loud scream. Both of them immediately tried to reach her as fast as possible. As Asad was closer he reached her first. He took hold of her hand just when she was about to fall off from a steep cliff. Hammad stood frozen to ground, his heart-beat erratic as he saw Asad pull her up. He relaxed when he saw her safe finally. As he walked down to them he saw Asad pull off his jacket and put it over his sister. This brought a smile on his face despite the awful moment that had just passed. He had been observing Asad and now he knew from quite a long time that what Asad harbored for his sister was not just friendship. It was much more than that and at that moment he approved. He knew that this was not just a mere crush and Asad would not hurt her ever.

Fortunately she did not suffer any major injury, just a few bruises here and there which healed in a few days.

The bell had been ringing for quite a long time now. Asad seemed really busy with whatever he was doing so Najma got up to answer the doorbell. She brought an envelope inside and gave it to Asad.

N: "Bhai the postman just delivered this."

A: "Place it on the table."

N: "It's some letter from the British Council."

A: "Oh that. Give it to me."

N: "What is it?"

Najma asked him as he opened the letter and read it.

A: "It is an acceptance letter from Kings."

N: "Wow. Awesome Bhai."

A: "It's no use. How can I go there? I just applied because Dr. Ashutosh forced me."

Hamza walked into Hammad's room and asked him to come and play with him on his X-box.

H: "Dude I am busy. Go ask Appi."

Hm: "Appi is busy too."

H: "Go ask her again dude. Don't waste my time. I need to complete this project today."

Hamza stomped his foot in anger and walked out banging the door behind him.

Hm: "Nobody loves me."

Zoya who was passing by heard him and asked him.

"Aww baby what happened?"

Hm: "Hammad Bhai has gone bonkers. He is working! Yes working."

Z: "So that is something good."

Hm: "No it isn't. Who will play with me now?"

Z: "I will."

Hm (happily): "Really? Come I will show you. I got three new games yesterday."

They played for some time but then Sarah called Zoya and she left.

Hamza sat on the sofa with his cheeks puffed and lips pouted. Hamza entered the lounge and plopped himself next to him.

Hamza: "I am angry with you Bhai."

Hammad: "I was busy buddy. So you are still in your Appi's team."

Hamza: "Yes from now on I will always be in her team."

Hammad: "Oye! What will you do after she goes away? She is not going to live with us forever."

Hamza: "Why?"

Hammad: "Because she is a girl."

Hamza: "So? Mama is also a girl and she lives with us and she is not going anywhere."

Hammad: "Mama is married to Baba."

Hamza: "So girls live forever with whomever they marry."

While having dinner Najma informed everyone about the letter Asad had received.

Zubair: "What program is it?"

Asad: "Uncle three students from our college are being sent in an exchange program to Kings College London. Credit hours from the four years they have completed here will be considered and the rest of the degree will be completed there on scholarship. Afterwards, they will specialize from there as well."

Zubair: "And you have been selected. Awesome yaar but why don't you want to go?"

Asad: "How can I go? Then Najma."

Hammad: "She can live with us. You don't have any problem with this arrangement T… Najma, do you?"

Zubair: "He is right. Problem solved. Now you don't have any other reason at all. Go Beta. It's good fun and secondly an awesome experience as well."

Asad: "Now that you all have decided, what can I say?"

Zoya: "So when will you go?"

Asad: "In about six months, when fourth year ends."

Hamza was unusually quiet throughout the whole conversation, concentrating on his plate, deep in thought. He raised his head and asked.

"So Najma Appi you will live with us?"

N: "Yes."

Hm: "Good then Asad Bhai when you come back you can live with us too."

A: "Okay."

Hm: "Yay. Then you get married to Zoya Appi and we will all live together forever. Right Hammad Bhai."

Zubair had a somber face as he got up and left the table.

"This is not going to be easy." Asad thought to himself.

When Hammad saw everyone looking at him he spoke innocently.

"What? I don't have anything to do with this. The little tyke can think of some awesome ideas too."

Right then her phone rang and Sarah got up to check it. Hamza followed her outside.

Asad got up and said

"I think we should leave now. It's getting late and we have to attend college too. Get up Tamatar."

N: "Wait let me inform Uncle."

Only Hammad and Zoya were left on the table now.

Z: "What the hell was that?"

H: "What? Why are you looking at me like that? It's not like I am responsible for everyone's tongue in cheek comments."

Z: "But you are definitely for this one."

H: "No I am not. It was completely his idea. Okay fine maybe I gave him a certain line to think about. Now that I think of it, not a very bad idea though, isn't it?"

Z: "Hammad you know it very well that Ba…"

H: "That you are hopelessly, madly, deeply in laoorve with your Akram Bhayia but I am your big brother Zoe. I should set you right wherever you are wrong, right?"

Z: "Drop this idea. What's up with you and Najma nowadays?"

H: "Tamatar! You know me. I just having fun teasing her. I should add I don't mean any harm before you lecture me."

Z: "It may be a joke for you but she might get hurt Hammad. Stop it."

H: "Can't help it. Now by the end of this year she is going to come live with us. This is going to be so much fun."

Z: "Hammad why do you not understand my point?"

H: "I do Sweety! I know you are jealous but don't worry. I won't forget you after she comes. I will rile you both up equally."

Z: "Go to hell."

H: "Hey! Is that a ring? But why are you wearing it in your thumb? I have seen you wearing it quite a lot nowadays."

Z: "It's a band. Platinum friendship band with BFF engraved on it. Look."

H: "No points for guessing who gave it to you. So you baby Sis you have a lot to tell me. What's going on?"

Z: "Nothing. It's just a friendship band."

H: "Platinum BFF band. Airhead, boys don't give platinum BFF bands to girls who are just friends."

Z: "Oh shut up. There is nothing like that. I know him."

H: "I am a boy. I know better."

Z: "I know him better."

H: "Now now. That tells me something."

Z: "Ammi is calling me."

H: "She is not but I will let you escape for now."

Z: "She is and there is nothing but I am not quite sure about your Tamatar. Somebody was quite too happy and desperate to suggest her to come here."

H: "It was the most obvious solution and Ammi was calling you."

"Asad since you were not here at Zoya's birthday, to make up for it, take her out for dinner tonight."
Sarah said to Asad while having her evening tea.
Asad: "Me?"
Sarah: "Can you see anyone else here?"
Asad: "Err we can all go together. That would be even better. Don't you think so?"
"This boy has hay for brain. Doesn't he get it they need to be alone for him to finally come clean about his feelings for her? It's high time they both confess. My part of convincing Zubair comes later."
Sarah thought to herself.
Asad: "Aunty?"
Sarah: "Err yah… uh I was thinking, we would have loved to come but you see everyone has their own engagements today. So leaves you both only. Zubair has to go for a business meeting. Najma and I have to go to the market. Hammad is busy with some project of his. Besides, Zoya is really angry with you. Although she is not showing but she is."
Asad: "But she knows I had to go to the embassy for all the paperwork. If everyone is busy, we can go some other day."
Sarah mentally face palmed him at this and said.
"You are leaving day after tomorrow. Tomorrow we have a farewell dinner at home. You shouldn't leave your loved ones angry before going somewhere far away."
Asad: "Err… yah… so I'll go ask her."
Sarah: "Yah do it. Plus be a man and finally say it out loud to her."
Asad: "What Aunty?"
Sarah: "You know very well, what I am talking about."

Asad: "This is the most expensive restaurant in India as per Times of India."
Zoya: "And why exactly are you telling me?"
Asad: "Uh actually I wanted to tell you that I… uh… I just saw Rahul Dravid over there."
Zoya: "Where?"
Asad: "Never mind. He has left now."
Zoya: "So we were talking about you wanted to tell me something."
Asad: "Err yah! As I was saying… I think we… we… I think we should order."
Zoya: "What is wrong with you today?"
Asad: "Nothing. Does it look like something is wrong?"
Zoya: "Seriously."
Asad: "Seriously wrong?"
Zoya: "Yah! Come on… out with it now!"
Right then the security alarm went off and people started making a run for the exit.
Asad: "Looks like something is terribly wrong."
A waiter came running to them, his voice clearly depicting fear.
"Sir a minister who was dining here has been attacked. Make a run for your life. The terrorists are all over the place."
Soon police sirens could be heard outside. They had only made it to the main corridor. The police sealed the restaurant from all fronts and warned the terrorists to give up. In a state of panic they started shooting the people present inside. There was complete chaos everywhere. The minister's dead body still lay where he had been attacked.
Asad saw a lady holding on to a two year old baby with a fear-stricken face. She was the minister's wife. A terrorist aimed for the baby. Asad, deciphering his intention lunged forward and took hold of the baby from the lady's hands. The lady got hit instead of the baby. An involuntary cry escaped Zoya's lips. The man was now aiming at Asad. Zoya moved forward to push him out of the way just the moment he fired. The bullet hit her instead of Asad. Asad felt as if the world had gone dark around him. Zoya clutched onto her arm and after a few seconds fell to the floor, unconscious.
By this time the police had finally taken control of the situation.
All the injured ones were rushed to the nearest hospital.

As soon as Sarah saw the news on the TV, she panicked. It was the same restaurant Asad and Zoya had gone to. She had this sinking feeling since evening that something was not right. Hammad entered the lounge and panicked seeing her tear-stricken face. He ran to her and asked her.
"Ammi, what's wrong?"
Sarah pointed towards the TV and cried.
"My Zoya."
Hammad: "What happened to her? Where is she?"
Sarah told him that Asad and Zoya had gone to the same restaurant and they just showed a clip where she saw her being rushed to an ambulance on a stretcher.
"These clips are from a private restaurant in Mumbai where Health Minister Shree Ram and his wife were attacked by unknown men. The police have started the investigation. His son survived the attack while there have been reports of at least five people being injured. The injured are being rushed to Life-care hospital. According to our sources the injured include a girl, three men and…"

The newscaster's voice reverberated in the room.

They rushed to the hospital while Hammad frantically tried Asad's mobile again and again.
Asad sat on a bench outside the operation theatre. He was still in a state of shock. He felt responsible for whatever had happened to Zoya. He shouldn't have taken her there. There were thousands of other restaurants in Mumbai, why did he choose that specific one. If only he had chosen some other restaurant, if only he hadn't left her side to save the little boy, if only …
He should have been the one to get hit, not her. The fact that the bullet hit her while she tried to save him added to his guilt.

Asad stood up when he saw Sarah rushing towards him.
Sarah: "Where is she? Where is my baby? Is she okay? Tell me Asad."
Asad: "The doctors are working Aunty. She will be fine. Nothing will happen to her."
Asad tried putting up a brave face in front of Sarah to calm her down.

When Hammad reached there, he saw Asad standing beside Sarah who was sitting on the bench. He felt a sudden surge of anger boil up inside him as soon as he saw him. How could he be so calm while his sister was fighting for her life inside? His anger blinding him of all reason and rationale, he lunged forward at Asad and shouted.
"SHE IS IN THERE JUST BECAUSE OF YOU!"

He hit Asad's nose hard with his fist. On impact Asad hit the wall on his back. Hammad moved forward again and hit him on his stomach this time while Asad made no move at all to save himself or to deflect Hammad's assaults. He felt that he deserved every bit of this. Rather he wanted to inflict more pain upon himself for whatever Zoya went through just to save him.
Sarah ran forward and tried to push him away.
"Hammad leave him. Are you out of your mind?"
Right then Zubair who had just reached the hospital with Najma rushed forward and pulled Hammad away from Asad. At first he tried to struggle against him to free himself but gave up after some time. He stood there hugging his father, his body limp, drained of all energy.

"I swear Baba if something happens to her, I won't spare him."
Zubair caressed his back, trying to soothe him and said
"It's not his fault Beta."
Hammad pulled out of the hug and said pointing at Asad.
"It's his f**kin fault. He was the one who took her there. He should have protected her."

Najma took hold of Asad's hand and whispered to him.
"She will be perfectly fine. Zoya is a strong girl and it's not your fault Bhai. Some things are meant to happen and we can't change them. We humans are not omnipotent or infallible. You couldn't have done anything. Stop blaming yourself. "
She continued trying to calm him down while he stared into space paying no attention to her at all.

The doctor came out of the Operation Theatre and all of them looked at him apprehensively.
"We have taken out the bullet. It hit her left arm. Hopefully there won't be any lasting damage but…"
"But what doctor?" Hammad moved forward his face expressing fear.
"The bullets they used contained poison. She needs a blood transfusion. We hope she will be fine after that. The poison fortunately hasn't done much damage. We don't have this particular blood group in our bank right now. We have contacted a few other hospitals. Hopefully we will soon find it." The doctor replied.
Hammad: "Her blood group is same as mine. I can donate."
Doctor: "I appreciate your spirit young man but we need at least a day to completely screen the blood."
"My sister freakin almost died. How can you be sure that any XYZ whose blood you give her would be completely clean?"
Hammad replied, his anger getting better of him again.
The doctor turned towards Sarah and Zubair and said
"The final decision is obviously yours to make. We haven't had much luck but we are hopeful we will soon find it from the other hospitals."
Zubair: "There is no guarantee whether you will find it or not. Give her his blood. I am sure he is clean."
"You need to sign these consent forms Sir. You young man, follow the nurse." The doctor replied in monotone.

The next morning while Asad was packing his stuff, Hammad came to meet him.
Hammad: "I am really sorry about last night dude. She was… I was afraid if something… I just wasn't thinking straight. Forgive me for… you know."
Asad: "It's okay."
Hammad: "She was asking about you after gaining consciousness. Go see her."
Asad: "Hmm."
Hammad: "I guess I should leave now. Need to take a few things for her to the hospital."

After Hammad left, Najma came to him and said.
"Bhai just get over it now. Stop blaming yourself. She is perfectly fine. Don't go without seeing her."
Asad: "Actually Tamatar I need to go to the British Council to get a few things straightened out."
Najma: "Enough Bhai. For the last time it was not your fault. Stop trying to run away instead of facing things."
Asad: "I am not trying to run away. It's better for her if I stay away. I might just end up hurting her again."
Najma: "You did not hurt her. You won't ever. I am sure."
Asad: "Don't argue Najma. She wouldn't be in hospital right now. She wouldn't have to go through all that if it were not for me."
He only called her by her name when he was really pissed or wanted to end the argument. She continued anyway.
Najma: "She just got hit accidently."
Asad: "No she didn't. The man was aiming at me. She came in between to save me."
Najma: "Well that only means one thing. She also feels for you the same way you do for her. Another reason for you to go and meet her before going. Tell her before it's too late.
Asad: "I don't want her to feel anything for me. I just can't give her anything except pain. This is how it has always been. First Ammi and now her. I am the bad luck."
Najma: "Making you see sense is like banging one's head against the wall."

Really irritated with him she went out banging the door behind her.

Just before leaving he went to the hospital to meet everyone one last time. He stood outside her room's door contemplating whether to enter or not. He didn't know what to say to her or why he wasn't there the whole day. Finally taking a deep breath, he knocked and entered. Sarah and Zubair were sitting near her bed while Hammad was busy with Hamza. To his relief Zoya was asleep.

Asad: "How is she feeling now?"
Sarah: "She is fine now. They just gave her pain killers. She is asleep due to that."
Asad: "It's almost time for my flight. I came to say Good bye."
Zubair got up from his seat and placing his hand on his shoulder said.
"Beta work hard to achieve your goals. We will keep praying for you. Don't worry about Najma at all. You know you don't need to and Zoya is perfectly fine now so don't think about whatever happened. Just focus on your goals. May God bless you."
Sarah smiled at him and hugged him. She whispered in his ear.
"I am taking everyone out. Wake her up and wish her a proper good bye. At least she deserves this much from you."

Asad was finally alone with Zoya. He had no plans for waking her up as he did not want to open up to her for her sake. He knew if she woke up he couldn't stop himself now. So he just bent forward, kissed her forehead and wished her a very happy life in his heart. Then he turned and left.

"So he left without even saying Good bye to me!"
Zoya moaned angry at the prospect of him leaving in the way he did.
Sarah: "He did come. May be you didn't wake up. He tried waking you up."
Zoya: "Where was he the whole day? That's how much he cares about me. Who does that with their friends?"
Sarah: "Why are you so upset? Are you sure he is just a friend Zoe?"
Zoya: "Of course. What else Ammi?"
Sarah: "Well he should have. You take rest. Let me check up on Hamza. The doctor said you would be discharged by evening."

After Sarah left Zoya said to herself.
"Fine if he doesn't care, even I don't. To hell with him. I won't talk to him now even if he wants to."

Precap:

Hammad entered her room the third time.

"Soch lo. His flight doesn't leave till about two hours. You can still meet him before he leaves if you reach there in ten minutes."

Zoya huffed and said.

"My answer is still no. I don't care about him even a teeny tiny bit."

"Hello I am Rashid Ahmed Khan. Najma's father."

Zubair looked at the suave businessman standing before him. Looks could be so deceptive sometimes.

Now this is a huge twist

Wasn't anticipating it

Asad left

Zoya hurt

Hammad knows

Najma knows

Sarah knows

And Rashid's entry
