*Always*
"Mr. Khan what are you doing?" Zoya asked Asad who was busy packing his clothes. "Mr. Khan say something!" Asad didn't even bother to reply or look at her. Zoya was getting angry. She held Asad's arm tight and turned him around. "Mr. Khan, what is going on? Why are you packing your things?" Zoya asked him. She was confused. She had no idea what Asad was up to. "Ms. Farooqui, we are going to New York." Asad replied. Zoya was stunned. She knew he was angry and upset as his Ammi, Dilshad left him, but this was the limit. How could he leave his mother here and leave? Didn't he care?
"Mr. Khan, look I know your angry, but how could you leave your Ammi here and go? She needs you Mr. Khan. She needs her son. And you want leave her and go." Zoya asked him. "Ms. Farooqui, I know you care for my mother, but Zoya I can't solve all these all these problems and..." "So you want to run away from all the problems. You want to leave all the problems and just run away." Zoya cut him in. "Maybe, maybe I want to run away from all these problems Zoya. I am scared that I won't be able to solve the problems which are created. "Asad replied. "Mr. Khan. Please don't do this. You are just running away from the problems, but have you ever imagined if you go away leaving your Ammi, how hurt she would be. Have you ever given a thought about it Mr. Khan." Zoya tried to reason with Asad. "Ms. Farooqui you think this decision was easy for me? No Ms. Farooqui it wasn't easy. But I had to take this decision. Are you with me Zoya?" Asad asked her. Zoya nodded in a yes. "No matter what Mr. Khan I will always be with you. Always."
It was all a lie. She wasn't there for him when I needed her. She left me forever. Why? Why? Why? She left me in this world. All alone. Never had he thought she would leave her like that.
Flashback
New York
Asad and Zoya's house
Asad had returned home after a tiring day in his office. He opened the door of his house and went in. He called out for Zoya. She didn't reply. He went in his room and sat down on their bed. Yes their bed. It was six months since they were married. He took a glass of water and drank it. He saw a piece of paper. He took it up and read it.
"Asad I am going shopping. Will come home soon!
Love,
Zoya."
It read. Asad smiled.

"Lies, lies, lies. All of them were lies." He muttered. "It's been 2 years since the day you left me Zoya two years. You left me forever." Tears strolled down Asad's eyes. His eyes were red. His eyes were swollen. "Why did you leave me Zoya? Why?" He sobbed.
Flashback
Asad got a call from Zoya. He quickly took it up and smiled. "Yes Zoya. Where are you." He asked. "Mr. Khan." Came the reply. But it wasn't Zoya's voice. It was someone else's. He was damn sure about it. "Mr. Khan, I am really sorry to say but you wife has met with an accident. She is really critical Mr. Khan. She is taken to the hospital now. Please come there." Asad's hands were shaking the phone fell off his hand. He quickly took his car keys and drove to the hospital. God knew how many traffic signal he broke. He didn't care. He was driving rash. As soon as he reached the hospital he got out of the car, not caring to even park it. He ran inside the hospital and asked the receptionist about Zoya's whereabouts. She had told that she was in the OT. Asad ran to the OT. "Dr. How is she?" Asad asked he wanted to know how his jaan' was. His life. "Look Mr. Khan your wife is really critical we can't anything. She has lost a lot of blood and we have started giving her blood too. Please sign the documents quick so we could start the operation." Replied the doctor. Asad quickly signed the papers and gave it to the doctor. After hours the doctor finally came out. "Doctor how is she?" He asked anxious to know how his jaan was. "We are really sorry Mr. Khan. We couldn't save you wife. She is no more." The doctor said. Asad was broken. It seemed like someone stabbed him. He ran inside the OT. Asad sat beside Zoya and patted her cheeks. "Zoya wake up, Zoya please." He begged. But she didn't wake up. She left him. Forever. He felt as if his life was snatched from him. His reason to live was dead itself. He wished he would die. He wished. His eyes were red.

"Zoya." He whispered. He sat by Zoya's grave crying. "Zoya you said you would always be with me right? Then why, why did you leave me Zoya why?" He asked her. "Why did you break your promise Zoya, why?"
Asad had become a living corpse in these two years. His mother and sister tried a lot to bring Asad back to normal. They had failed. He had buried himself in work. He would leave in the morning and come home midnight. Truth was when he finished his work early he would go to Zoya's grave and sit near it. He loved her even more than he loved her before.
"I will love you Zoya. Always." He whispered caressing the grave.
