Part 4

The day was ending in serenity of exquisite brilliance, Asad and Zoya sat at the deck facing the lake, in hues of orange and red, they watched the sunset brooding, they were so absorbed in the beauty or the thoughts of each other that both were at a loss of words. They had had a splendid day. Asad and Zoya had done things none could ever imagine, they had roamed on foot exploring all the old gallies and mohallas, Asad became a guide for her, answering all her queries about the Mogul architecture, and the amalgamation of old and modern and the combined existence of different cultures and people in Bhopal. They roamed like teenagers jumping and playing cricket with street kids. they ate from the local stalls, Asad didn't actually approve of that but still zoya insisted to at least taste, after a few faces Asad gave in, and tried what he hadn't tried for a long time, he was free today. They had a splendid desi lunch at a dhaba, before they drove out to the lake to watch the sunset.

Asad wasn't as bad as she had assumed him to be, there was something that tangled his personality. His image of arrogance was a faade for him to ever get hurt again, because if he wasn't human he would have been able to love, yes he loves the life and happiness around. He was so good with the kids, wonder how lucky his own kids would be, thought Zoya. He was patient with her, a trait which he lacked enormously, he heard her unrelenting queries, and only a few times he did look really exasperated, when he folded his arms and rubbed his temples, zoya had noticed him very intently. She was more interested in her guide than the places they visited. She was awed and thrilled to see the old buildings learning about their relevant history but nothing matched the cool and exuberant aura of Mr Khan her guide for the day. All the time she spent with him, never did he once mention a thing about himself or his family; he was a reserved person, who kept his personal life out of conversation at all cost. There is something that stops him from mixing with people and has almost made him secluded monk. She had never imagined that she could have such a great time with him. Yes he did turn into the akdoo Khan the despicable Asad when his phone ringed twice and he barked order of not disturbing him. She smiled thinking about him.

The darkness that haunted him day and night was nowhere on the horizon today, zoya had spread her warmth and melted his cold exterior, he had relived moments of happy childhood with street kids today. He hadn't expected this day to turn out as it had; he was a vulnerable man who sat looking over the sinking sun. He didn't know her; he yearned to learn more of her. He showed her around but when she was drooling over the sights, he admired her. He listened to her constant chatter, he was irritated but he had to be compelling to make her stay, or else she would have gone flying away just as she had threatened earlier; she was fresh as air and hot as espresso shot. He knew how to be convincing at times of dire need. He needed her, but he wasn't sure if it was right for him or both of them, it was too early to ponder on those thoughts. he was treading on a dangerous path, a path of pain suffering and heart break but didn't he already had his sentence with pain and suffering, would adding zoya to the equation be that bad.

Sun had set, dusk had fallen and lights began to appear, but the silence remained constant. Asad felt weird, silence and solitude his best friends were not delighting today, he looked around to see zoya, the goddess of his thoughts was watching the pacified water. She was in deep thoughts; he didn't like her quiet, "what he wanted that irritating zoya back on chattering mode", his mind whacked his muddled thoughts. He looked on to her serene thoughtful mode, she was quite a handful, but she could be this pensive at times made Asad marvel all the more.

"So was it that bad?"Asad said trying to get her out of the trance. "Huh!" zoya uttered bewildered looking at him; she was so lost thinking about him that she had forgotten that he sat next to her. Or did she feel protected that she went into such a trance, this Asad was sure to get her into trouble, she sighed mentally. "How was the day?" Asad rephrased his question. "It was unbelievable, magical", she said looking at the water not wanting to meet his gaze. For she realized how temporary all this was, she is supposed to be leaving India in a day and now she is having second thoughts, she wanted more time to remove all the layers from Asad and get to know him, thoroughly inside out. But it was impossible she was stretching her imagination and desire way too long than were negotiable. She strangely felt as if he could read her eyes, and she averted her gaze from him. It was just a day! Her mind was screaming n pulling the reins of her thoughts and heart, but she wanted more of Asad. "Wouldn't it be the perfect crime, if I stole his heart and he mine, Zoya!! tu pagal ho gai hai kya, people like Asad are not for you. Stay where you are. "

"She was unusually quiet what's going on in her mind, oh only if she didn't look so confused I could have made some sense of it" Asad thought. "Are you alright? Is everything ok?", Asad inquired "I didn't even have a split personality stroke once today and you still upset" , he added cheekily. Zoya smiled at his lame attempt and said "it's nothing Asad, it's been a magical day that has come to an end. Everything ends now." Asad stood up in an instant and said "the day hasn't finished yet, it's a magical day as you said, and it's got to be longer" and held out his hand to help her stand. She looked at him surprised, this man had the ability to surprise her every next instant. She took his hand and got up. "So what next?" she asked. Asad just smiled and pulled her into walking with him.
