Five steps to Love...❤️
Part #3
Asad's office :
Asad was pleased as somehow Zoya agreed to meet him in his office instead.
He checked his watch.Zoya Farooqi always late, never on time. He was pacing back and forth in his cabin when Zayed walked in.
"Kisi ke intezar kar rahe ho?"
"haan woh Zoy.. I mean Miss Farooqi abhi tak aayi nahi na.. "
"OH toh woh aaj office aayengi... That's why they made some pizzas, burgers in the canteen. And.. "
Zayed had to stop as Zoya entered the scene.
"Woh traffic jam ki waja se.. I'm late sorry. " She smiled up.
"Hello Zoya!" Zayed greeted her, "aapko dekhke achha lagaa... " he shook her hand and pulled her into a hug.
Asad clenched his fists which dint go unnoticed by Zayed.
"I'm sorry agar aapko bura laga.. aaj world hug day hai! Fifty hugs before evening.. so excuse me!" Zayed left the room leaving the duo.
"good morning Mr. Khan. So lets begin. Ah.. Pizza mereliye??" Zoya's eyes widened in delight.
"Jee woh.. "
"thanks Mr. Khan. Is pizza ke sahare main shaam tak aapse aise hi yoon baatein kar sakti hoon! " she started munching on one piece as she sat.
Asad shook his head. Her bakwaas was about to begin. He was scared, scared of how much he wanted to listen to her bakwas, laugh at her jokes & even share a pizza with her. But he shouldn't, he wouldn't. He was amazed how he could recall all her favorite things. More amazed at how despite all her flaws she managed to steal his heart. And how she was the cutest thing happened to him. And her smile... Oh Asad get a grip! Don't fall for her!
"toh her favorites. I've told u about her habits. Ab baari hai favorites ki... " Zoe began wid a smile.
Asad slapped himself.
Zoya's favorite book : Harry Potter. Daniel is jus so cuteee! n so is Tom!
Jia ka fav : err.. yaad nahi. Some urdu literature may be.
Zoya's Fav song : Complicated

"Miss Farooqi.. Yeh sab janke main kya karoonga? Jus leave me alone! Aapki bakwas mujhe nahi sunna.. " Asad lied, "Ammi keliye maine haan kehdi. par please stop your nonsense. Kisi ki bhi fav ke baare mein nahi jaanna hai mujhe! Please jayiye.."
"Come on Mr. Khan.. Aap mein thoda patience nahi, aapse zyada woh aapka dost acha tha! Zay ed is such a sweet guy.. "
"Sweet guy..?" Asad glared at her.
"haan, Usee ne mujhe lift dia aur dekho kitni meethi meethi baatein karta hai.. "
Asad was pissed off. That idiot from US! Zayed ke bache..How dare he? " can you please reveal what kind of food, places does Jia like ? Cause I'm planning to meet her over dinner..."
Zoe was pleased. For a moment, it looked Mr. Khan was jealous. Wasn't he?
"OK.. Jia likes home made food. She's not much a foodie and she likes queer places and royal restaraunts.. "
"thanks Miss Farooqi.. "
"mera abhi hua nahi.. Aapko pata hai, restaurants are boring! I suggest you meet her for a coffee. Slight music, coffeee and dedh saari romantic baatein ho sakti hai.. allah miya Koi toh mujhe aisi date pe lejaaye.."
Asad had to smile. She was always this way. Care free and happy. He wished he could tell her he would love to share a coffee wid her, wished he could tell her he some how enjoyed her company. Well, sometimes he got pissed off too! But did it count?
"thanks for the advice Miss Farooqi. You may leave now!"
Her smile dropped. He hated when she was sad, especially because of him. Did she want to stay back and offer her a ride like Zayed did?
"Aw.. mm OK. " And she was gone.
Zayed walked in five minutes later.
"Look I got her number! Bahot bholi hai yar.. aur achhi bhi! I said she could persue a job here in my company as an app designer. She seems interested and the way she smiled mashallah.. "
Asad slammed his hand on the table out of frustration. He took a deep breath, "Is tarah ladki ka peecha karna galat nahi hoga?"
"maine thodi na usko cheda.. sirf baat karraha tha. Kya patha.. Baat banjaye?!"
"phir bhi.. " Asad mumbled something under his breath.
"Jealous haan?" Zayed teased him.
"What?? Are you mad? "
"Well pehle maine bhi yahi socha .. Asad aur Zoya.. kuch toh hai raabta.."
"Zayed... "
"Tu maan kyoun nahi leta. . tu use pasand karta hai hai na?"
"Bakwaas band karo.. tujhe kyoun lagta hai aisa? She's jus our guest. Apne se humesha door rakhta hoon main use.. Kyoun ki.. "
"tu jisse pyar karta hai woh door hi rahenge na tujse? Pehle tere abbu.. aur ab Zoya.."
"Abbu ki baat mat kar Zayed.. "
"OK.. OK. Asad know tu bohot ziddi hai.. Par apnon ko door mat hone dena. Aur agar tu sach mein jealous nahi hai.. malab agar tu sach mein Zoya ko pasand nahi karte toh.. good for me! I'll ask her out for a coffee! Hum dono NRIs. Khoob jachegi humari jodi.." And Zayed left the cabin leaving a fuming Asad behind.

That night..
"Is baar baat banjayegi! Asad.. dekho yeh Jia ki tasveer hai aur her poetry book. Kya Khoob likhti hai.. badi nek aur tehzeeb wali bhi hai.. Bilkul tumhari choice jaisi.. " Phuphi remarked during dinner.
Zoya was sad. She dint know why. She was happy for Jia but still.. Is tehzeeb and knowledge is all Asad wanted in his bride?!
