Hello Dearies,

Are you ready for chapter 3?😉 so here you goes without my blabbering😆

Chapter 3: A bad coffee bean and a ruined coffee

"I will have Cafe Mocha with extra whipped cream. And the gentleman over here will have one espresso"

She placed their order and turned around to face Asad who was having an amused expression in his face. She raised her eyebrow at him. He once again shrugged his shoulders and entertained himself with the menu card. A small smile appeared in Zoya's face at this. She bed down trying to keep her bag on the floor and suddenly a small cry escaped her lips. At a lightning speed Asad was near her. He cupped her face in his hand as his hazel eyes bore through her.

"Are you ok? What happened?"

She was boggled by his sudden proximity again. She stuttered nervously as she explained that the sudden movement she done with her hand had caused pain in the spot where the doctor had given injection. He rolled his eyes at her as she looked at him nervously. He rolled her sleeves till the injection mark and started blowing in it slowly. She closed her eyes trying to a get a grip on herself as the alien feelings started overpowering her heart and brain.

Asad looked at Zoya who had closed her eyes. He could see her eyeballs moving through the closed eyelids. He felt the sudden urge to kiss her eyes. He fisted his hands in order to avoid doing something reckless and withdrew to his seat. She felt a void within her as he moved away. She opened her eyes only to be locked it with his. She could see her reflection in his eyes. She could also see his eyes darkens showing her a glimpse what he felt. A faint blush appeared in her cheeks as she broke the eye contact.

The awkwardness surrounding them was broken by the waiter who arrived with their coffee. Zoya jumped to get her Cafe Mocha while Asad smiled at her childishness.

"Mmm... Yummy..."

Asad's lips were just an inch away from tasting his espresso when he heard her moaning over the coffee. He gulped hard and looked up. His eyes softened as he took the sight in front of him. A small smile appeared in his face as he watched her. There she was sitting across the table sipping her coffee like a small kid with cream and foam smeared around her lips. She looked up at him and gifted him with her patented dimple smile. As she resumed drinking her coffee, Asad sipped his espresso while watching her expression. She looked soo innocent and childish. But he knew, despite all these, she is matured and sensible. She was the perfect example of beauty with brains.

As he continued analyzing her, his eyes stuck at her lips which were covered with foam. The first time in his life, he felt weird feelings inside him. He felt his throat burn with that very sight. He could feel pressure building up inside him. His heart ached to feel those luscious lips of hers. He clenched his fist hard so as to avoid going out of control. But an oblivious Zoya sipping her coffee was not helping him either. He groaned in frustration and stood up in his feet and walked near to her. he snatched the coffee cup from her and kept it aside. He bent his head down and smacked his lips on her face licking the foam and cream off her face.

Zoya was really relieved to get her favorite drink after the painful injection. As she took the first sip of her coffee her mind relaxed as she floated into the wonderful land of coffee with cream. She was grateful to Asad for agreeing to her. She looked up giving him a beautiful smile which held her dimples in display and again resumed her coffee. She knew she was drinking a child having cream mustaches but that doesn't bother her as it was the way she always drink her coffee. She was relieving in the sweetness of coffee when suddenly she felt a hand snatch her coffee away from her. She looked up only to find Asad who was looking at her intensely. Before she could process what was happening, she felt his lips on her face. Her eyes widened as his lips started working its way through her cream moustache. She felt a sudden jolt of electricity running through her with his actions. She clutched his collar tightly while his arms sneaked around her waist pulling her up. She stood there in his arms, her eyes closed.

As soon as his lips met her skin Asad felt light. It was as if some weight is off from his heart. He sneaked his arm around her waist pulling her up. She fitted perfectly in his arms. He molded her body into his as he hurriedly feasted on her lips. After a moment's hesitation he felt her responding to him. And that encouraged him. He started kissing her more passionately. His hand which was on her back found its way through her sides and settled on her waist. She felt dizzy as he squeezed her waist. She held onto him for support snaking her arms around his neck.

They were pulled apart from their blissful land by utensil shattering sound from the kitchen. Horrified of their actions they jumped apart looking everywhere but not each other. Asad was livid. He was angry at himself for letting his emotions rule over his actions. On the other hand Zoya was reliving her kiss, her First kiss. It was not like what she imagined, it was not the way she imagined. There was no proposal, there was no love confession, there were no flowers or perfect ambience. But she felt it. She felt the sparks flying when his lips molded onto her, the sparks which all the love books defined, the sparks she always want to experience. She felt alive and loved. She looked at the man infront of him who found his way to her heart. But what she saw in his face broke her blooming heart. She expected him to look at her intensely and tell her something which she will love. But what she saw was a million frown lines in his face and a look which literally screamed regret.

"Zoya, I am... I am sorry... I shouldn't have... I... I swear I don't have any bad intentions... it's just... it was my mistake... I don't know what happened... please... please forgive me..."

Zoya looked at him with tear filled eyes. She was not upset because she kissed him, but she was upset because he considered it as a mistake. How can it be a mistake when he had given her the first kiss of her life... she wanted to scream at him for stealing her first kiss just because he couldn't control his feelings. But she couldn't bring herself to do that.

"It's... its okay Asad... Its...I..."

She was cut short by a voice across the room.

"There you are..."

Asad and Zoya turned towards the room to the source of that voice. There was a girl standing in the door with a wide smile. Zoya failed to understand who that girl was. Before she could process what was going on, she saw the girl running to Asad and hugging him fiercely while knocking out Zoya on her way. Zoya stumbled a few feet backward but gained her balance as she held the table to prevent from falling down. She looked up to find the girl in his arms with a contended smile. Her heart ached seeing that. She looked up only to find his eyes fixated on her. Before she could stop, tears started falling from her eyes. Just a few minutes before she had her first kiss with him and now he has some other girl in his arm.

Asad was also shocked by the sudden turn of events. He never expected Tanveer to come there and hug him, that too in front of Zoya. He was momentarily stumped. But as he regained his senses the first thing he done was to look at Zoya. He saw her looking at him with big baby brown eyes brimming with tears. He felt an aching in his heart. He badly wanted to take her in his arms. In fact after what had happened between them, it was Zoya who had to be there in his arms, not Tanveer. He saw her desperately trying to wipe her tears. He cringed when he felt Tanveer tighten her hold. He pried her hands from him.

"Tanveer, what are you doing here?"

To that Tanveer gave the 32 watt smile.

"Oh baby... I missed you. Did you miss me?"

He hated that voice, the sweetest voice in which she spoke with him. That always made him to doubt about her honesty. He refused to answer her question and instead looked at Zoya. Tanveer followed his suite and looked at her. Tanveer felt belittle as she observed the girl in front of her. That girl was a natural beauty, thought a jealous Tanveer.

"Hi, are you Asad's friend? I wonder why he didn't introduce me to you till now."

Zoya tried to give her a polite smile.

"Hi. I am Zoya Farooqui. Asad's Friend"

"And I am Tanveer Mizra. Asad's love and fianc"

Zoya felt her entire world collapse as she heard "Love and fianc" from Tanveer's mouth.

If she was his love, why he was kissing me? That was only thought running in Zoya's mind. She felt her heart bleed as she took in everything. She looked at Asad, hurt evident in her eyes.

Asad's heart clenched seeing the scene unfold in front of him. He never wanted this to happen. He never wanted Tanveer to come out of nowhere and ruin the perfect day in his life. As his eyes locked with Zoya's, he knew, the damage has done. The eyes which held pure joy minutes before were now filled with pain and tears. His eyes pleaded her to give him a chance to explain himself. He saw her plastering a smile excusing her and leaving the cafe. He pushed Tanveer out of his way and ran behind Zoya.

She was hurt will be an understatement, she was devastated. She was never this sad after her parents died. It was as if her love had broken even before it could bloom. All in her life she dreamt of a life with a man who will sweep her off with her first kiss. True, Asad swept her off her feet with her first kiss, but he will be never hers. He won't be spending his entire life with hers. And that hurt her. From the day she met him in the coffee shop, all her dreams revolved around him. It may sound strange, but for her, it was a love at first sight. She loved him not knowing anything about him. She loved him because she saw a little kid in his eyes who wanted to be loved by someone, who wanted to be spoiled by someone and most importantly who wanted to be introduced to the world of enjoyment by someone by adding a little sugar in his espresso. And she thought she could be that someone. But she was wrong in reading in his eyes. He already had that someone in his life, a someone who was his fianc. As she walked away from them, she painfully realized that she had left her heart behind.

She was not long gone when he caught up with her. She looked at him who was blocking her way. She was not ready to face him again, not after what happened just before. She tried to go past him but was bounced back into his arms. She looked at her wrist which was enclosed in his hand. She sighed.

"Mr. Khan. Please let me go."

Asad was hurt as he heard her addressing him formally.

"Zoya, I am sorry"

Zoya left out a sarcastic laugh as she processed his sorry.

"Sorry? So you are sorry. Okay, but sorry for what? Sorry for helping me? Sorry for stealing my first kiss? Or sorry for not telling that you are betrothed to someone else?"

He closed his eyes in pain as her hurt voice rang in his ears.

"Zoya, I am not sorry for the first one. Except that, I am sorry for everything."

He looked into her eyes hoping for forgiveness, but all he saw was more hurt. His heart was pierced as she suddenly removed her hand from his hold. He looked at his hand where her hand was molded perfectly just a moment before. He looked up and what he saw broke his heart further. She was taking steps backwards while looking at him. He could see that she was shaking as she let out her tears to fall freely.

"Thanks for this WONDERFUL evening. I won't forget it ever..."

With that she turned on her heels and ran away not even for once glancing back.

Asad stood there rooted to his spot as he watched her running away from him, helplessly. Not far away, Tanveer stood watching the drama unfold in front of her with an evil smile plastered in her face.

Coffee beans are integral part of a coffee. A bad coffee bean can tamper the coffee... Will the bad bean in the name of Tanveer change the sweet latte that Asad and Zoya brewing into a bad coffee?
