Ch8

Kiss or tell...

A kiss can be a comma, a question mark, or an exclamation point. That's basic spelling that every woman should know." Mistinguette

"Asad Ahmed Khan, proposes his co-star Tanveer A.Beg. She accepts" Read the headlines.

"They met on the sets and instantly hit it off. Her feminine charm and her polite deamenour were refreshing for our rugged and macho superstar. With their friendship evolving, the chance of working together once more just added fuel to the fire, finally pushing the superstor to confess and break a million hearts. He arranged a romantic...

She couldn't read any more. Zoya was shocked to the core. Never in a million years had she imagined to be tortured by such news. She still couldn't believe her eyes. Asad and engaged? And that too 2 weeks ago? Why didn't he tell her? How could he keep it from her. How dare he? And no one on the sets, not even Ayaan, gave her this news. Why? And here she was basking in the illusion, that slowly everything was getting sorted between them, they were talking to each other like old times, laughing and sharing their stories, then how could he forget to tell her he was engaged? Did she mean nothing to him? Did their past not give her some rights to know about his life?

Broken hearted? No Zoya felt enraged, she felt her pain, all her tears from long ago turning into fury. She wanted answers, hell she deserved answers. He owed it to her. He surely wasn't acting like a recently engaged person, when he had shared that moment with her, when he had held her so close, like his life depended on it. Was he cheating?. She counld'nt register on whom though. Was it her he was cheating on or, his fianc? Either way, this wasn't right; this wasn't the Asad she knew. She needed answers and that too now.

She would have walked up to his room, but Asad was gone;they would not be meeting each other until Christmas eve, at his movie premiere,his movie that starred Tanveer. Arrgh she was losing her mind, her name was making Zoya cringe. The thought of Asad with another girl was unfathomable by Zoya. She called him,only to be mocked by his voicemail,

Zoya-Damn it he had switched off his phone'. Zoya paced not knowing what to do. She tried calling her aapi, Nikhat and even Ayaan at the end, but it seemed like she was being mocked; No one picked up. Frustrated Zoya stepped out for some fresh air, reasoning herself to be patient. The answers will come, in due time.

'''

It was chirstmas eve; Asad had invited, Zoya along with Ayaan and Humeira at his movie premiere. He wanted his people to be present with him on his special night, and since Dilshaad and Najma were, in London for the past month visiting family weddings, Asad had made Ayan tag along with Humeira and Zoya.

~~

Zoya had finally calmed down, but the questions still burned in her mind. Tonight after 4 days she would finally meet Asad. She planned to set things straight and get the answers she needed; the whole scenerios was eating her up inside. She started to get ready, anitcption building up, and her anger resurfacing again, with each tick on the clock.

~~

Ayaan and Humeira were ready, waiting for Zoya to come down, so they could head to the premiere and the party afterwards. They both were dressed for the occasion; Ayaan in a crisp black tux, white shirt and a bow tie, and Humeria in a long black gown. They looked cute together, gaining them an aww from Nikhat, who was visiting her family. They had just recently started dating, courtesy there very own love guru Zoya, and her assistant Nikhat.After a lot of coaxing and pushing Ayaan had finally asked Huemria out. She was loved by everybody in his family, making it even easier for Ayaan to pursue their relationship futher. They were a young couple exploring love, and enjoying every bit of their courting period.

Zoya's Allah miyaan what's wrong with you, broke them out of their eyelock.She walked down, dressed in a fitted maroon gown, diamond studs and a gold clutch, looking exotic. She smiled at the new love birds, gesturing them to make their way to the car.Nikhat waved them goodbye and headed back to the house.

'''

Zoya was losing her cool, it had been 3 hours and she had not been able to get a moment alone with Asad, this being her only chance, if she missed it she would have to wait for another week until their next schedule together. The movie was over and everyone was enjoying the party. It was chirstmas tomorrow and the mood was festive. There were drinks and gifts and a lot of apprectiaon for the movie making the rounds. Finally spotting Asad, talking to someone by the bar, Zoya rushed towards him. He was looking gorgeous,his black 3 piece suit, white shirt and red tie,accentuating his ripped body. Zoya tapped him on the shoulders, making him turn back. She gestured him to lean down

Zoya-I need to talk to you' she whipered in his ears.

Asad-Now is not a good time' he whispered back

Zoya-I said I need to talk to you now'

Before Asad could respond, a hand slipped around Asads waist, and a petite girl leaned her body close to him.

Asad registered her presence, quickly masking his unease and repeated the gesture, pulling her in and smiling at her.

Zoya stood there dumbfounded. She didn't know how to respond.

Asad-Umm btw Zoya this is Tanveer my co-star in this moive, Tanveer this is Zoya, I am working with her in my upcoming movie. She is my brother's find'. He said a little too formally making Zoya flinch.

Tanveer extended her hands and greeted Zoya in her sugar coated voice.

Tanveer-Hello Zoya, its very nice to meet you. I am sure you're having a lot of fun with my hero here, but hey don't have too much fun that you forget to work'. She winked.

Zoya was fuming. Putting on her best fake smile she responded back.

Zoya-Nice to meet you too Tanveer, you did an awesome job in the movie. And ya you don't have to worry about me having fun with him. He's all yours darling. Anyways you guys carry on, I gtg'. She smirked and walked away.

Asad saw her walk, leaving him perplexed by her behavior. He brushed of his concerns and carried on his conversation, Tanveer leaning close to him.

''''

Zoya made her way to Ayaan and Humeira. She was done with this day and wanted tohead home, the image of Tanveer side hugging Asad was making her mad.

Ayaan-Here you go girls, have some coke.Wasie how are you girls liking the party?? Humeira begam kya aap hamre saath dance karengo? Ayaan offer Humeria his hand and she obliged.

Huemire-Zoya baaji will you be fine if we go to the dance floor?'

Zoya-Of course meri jaan, go enjoy, Am just gonna stand by the Christmas tree, come find me when u guys are done'

Both Ayaan and Humeira headed to the dancefloor and Zoya made her way and stood by the Christmas tree.

A guy standing besides he,most likely a fellow actor said Hi and she reciprocated. They shared pleasentries and continued to enjoy the people dancing on the floor.

Suddenly the music stopped and everyones attention diverted to the MC of the party. He had the mike on and was seeking attention.

MC-Hello everone, Merry Christmas to all of you, and congratulations to the entire team of the movie'.

Everyone applauded.

MC-Well now that I have everyone's attention, I wanted to point out something really exciting. As per tradition, anyone who is standing under the miseltoe has to share a kiss.We were planning to play a game leadin up to this, but it seems like we already have someone that seems to be too eager to wait'. He pointed in the direction, the spotlight following and finally landing on Zoya, and the guys besides her.

The crowd applauded, cheering and hooting.Zoya was stumped, what had just happened. The guy besides her looked at her embaressed, as if asking her for her consent. She didn't know what to do.

MC-Come on guys..be a sport and respect the tradition, KISS'

The crowed cheered...KISS... KISS... KISS... KISS...KISS... KISS... KISS... KISS...

Zoya didn't know what to do, she didn't want to be a spoil sport in front of so many people. A lot of them were Asad's and Ayaan's colleagues. She looked around seeking help.

The guy besides her spoke.

Guy-Hey I know your dilemma, infact I am kinda embaressed too, but itne saari industry ke logo ke saamne nahikiya to naak kat jaayegi naa. So how bout I give you a quick peck on you cheek and get it over with. I'll tell the MC'

Zoya felt trapped, but she had to decide, so hesitantly she nodded.

The crowd roared, as the guy leaned in, getting closer to Zoya's cheek, but before he could someone pulled him away, and dragged Zoya along with him.

Ayaan had almost made his way to Zoya, ready to rescue her, but before him his brother had barged in, shoving the guy away and dragging Zoya with him.His brothers actions raised a lot of questions in Ayaan's mind,infact looking at Humeira's expression sealed the doubt,something was definitely brewing between Asad and Zoya, what they had to find out.

~~

Asad had finally freed himself from Tanveer and the director. He headed in the direction he had seen Zoya go. He knew she was pissed, but what could he do, ha had to fulfill another part of the job, sweet talks and make believe.Making his way thorugh the crowd, he spotted Ayaan and Huemira dancing, their togetherness making Asad happy. He smiled, and looked around knowing Zoya won't be far. He just spotted her and suddenly the music stopped. Whatever, he thought, but the next sentence stopped him.

MC-Hello everone, Merry Christmas to all of you, and congratulations to the entire team of the movie'.

He stood there listening to what he had to say

MC-Well now that I have everyone's attention, I wanted to point out something really exciting. As per tradition, anyone who is standing under the miseltoe has to share a kiss.We were planning to play a game leadin up to this, but it seems like we already have someone that seems to be too eager to wait'

Asad's eyes followed the spotlight out of cusiosity, only to be taken aback, when it landed on Zoya, and Nakul a new actor. His fists balled up when he heard the next line.

MC-Come on guys..be a sport and respect the tradition, KISS'

He was getting mad, and the only thing holding him back was Zoya's hesitation. She will not do it, he kept telling himself. He noticed Nakul talking to Zoya who nodded, and him signaling the MC , wait was that a yes? He was confused. He stared. Nakul leaned closer to Zoya, making Asad realize what was to happen. He lost his cool and darted towards Zoya. Before Nakul could get any closer, Asad pulled him away, grabbing Zoya's hand and taking her out the door. To hell with the crowd, and the tradition. No one had the right to touch Zoya.

~~~

Asad swung Zoya around, in the empty corridor, letting her go. He had to calm himself down before he could talk to her, or he would swallow her raw in his rage.

Zoya-What the hell was that, itne logon ke saamne tamasha karne ki kya zaroorat thi?

Asad didn't say anything.

Zoya-Mr Asad Ahmed Khan mein aapse baat kar rahi hu, why did you make a scene in there?? Mein sambhaal rahi thi na situation ko.'

Asad lost it and bellowed

Asad-W*F you call that handeling the situation, allowing a stranger to kiss you, God damnit woman, tumahri akal kahan gayi hai?

Zoya- He was not going to kiss me kiss me, bas ek chota se peck on my cheeks, whats the big deal,it's a tradition I have grown up watching'.

Asad-Ya Alah kaise samjhau is ladki ko. Zoya yeh Amercia nahi, yeh India hai,yahan ladkiya yeh sab nahi karti, and...damnit...it was not right that's it'.

Zoya- Asad mein achhi tarah se jaanti hu ki that's not the reason why you decided to drag me out in front of all those people there. Aakhir what was such a big deal, that you forgot your surroundings and your porfessionalism' she countered.

Asad refrained himself.

Asad-Zoya ek taraf tum kehti ho ki you know me and ek taraf you are asking my why I reacted the way I did. Don't you think you should know?

Zoya-Asad enough, just tell me what the hell is ur problem'

Asad- Damn it girl the problem is you, the problem is me. Even after all this years, and after everything, I still cant see you with anyone else. Mein yeh har kis bardasht nahi kar sakta ki koi aur ladka tumhare kareeb aaye, and I hate to feel this, I don't want to feel this' He punced the wall in frustration.

Zoya laughed, her sarcasm reaching to Asad.

Zoya- Huh.never knew you were such a hypocrate Mr Asad Ahmed Khan'.

Asad-What are you talking about?

Zoya-What am I talking about? Honestly u tell me what I am talking about. You knw what forget it mere paas in sab cheezo ki liye faltu waqt nahi Zoya started walking away, all her pent up anger resurfacing.

Asad was losing his cool,he pulled Zoya, demanding an answer

Asad-whats your problem, seedhe seedhe baat karo, don't beat around the bush, waise bhi yahan apna time waste karke tumhari faltu, immature baatein sun raha huh'.

Zoya exploded.

Zoya-LEAVE ME, chodo mera haath. How dare you handle me like this. Mujhe tumse koi baat nahi karni, I just wanna be away from you. Get the hell away from me' She shoved him off.

Asad grabbed her again, his restraint breaking.

He roared-Tum samajhti kya ho apne aap ko, baat ched ke baat nahikarni and then you have the audacity to yell at me and insult me for wanting to talk it out. I am being honest here and you...

Zoya-You and honest, please, have some shame, baatien chupate ho aur apne aapko honest bataatein ho'.

Asad-Zoya just spit it out, what is eating you up so much..pls don't make me lose the last bit of my patience'.

Zoya-Get the hell away, yeh sab apni fianc pe zor chalana, don't you dare try to manupilate me'

Asad couldn't believe what he heard Fiance?

Asad-What the F**k are you talking about, tumhara dimag to theek hai naa'

Zoya broke down

Zoya- Haa mein pagal ho gayi hu, jabse aayi hu u have treated me like shit, apne marzi se mujhse se baat karte ho, apni marzi se meri insult karto ho. Every step of the way I have dealt with u, blowing hot and cold. Mein to jaise koi khilona hu tumhare liye,you entertain yourself with me, and whe you get bored, dispose me in a corner. You have no value of anything. You are a liar a cheat, you have used me and played with me and on the other side u got F**k**g engaged 2 weeks ago to that plasctic laden vamp Tanvver and didn't even have the decency to tell me,batana bhi zaroori nahi samjha. F**k I have the right to know. You cant keep playing around with me like that'.

Asad-No Zoya, you have no right over me. You lost that right 4 years ago, and I never asked you why, so now you have no right to ask me why, and have no right to know anything about my life. I choose what I want to tell, or if I want to tell you. Its not you that dealt with me, its me who allowed you to stay. I could have kicked you out of the movie, if I chose to. I had my past to hold against you, but I didn't. It was my decency that despite, going through hell, I still extended my hand towards you, beleiveng that maybe we could move past it all, and be civil around each other, But I was wrong. Tumne kal bhi apne barae mein socha tha, aur aaj bhi tumhe sirf tum hi nazar aati hu. You don't see anyone else's pain. Its you who used me and disposed me off at your convience, so stop all this'.

A defeated Asad let go of Zoya and started walking away.

Asad- Aur rahi baat mere engegement ki, I thought you were smart, I thought you could differenciate between fact and fiction but shayad is mein bhi mein galat tha. Seems, even my thoughts betrayed me. Chalo ek aur sahi. I'll send Ayaan and Humeire here so straighten up and go home, Allah ka naam lena and sleep'. With that he walked away, crushing his heart and hers.
