Hi guys back with a update! Sorry its taken so long, I'm enjoying my break too much😆 not proof read it so please forgive me for any errors, do let me know what you think.
The car journey seemed to be very awkward. Dilshad could feel the tension in the car she cleared her throat. "Is everything ok guys?" Najma looked at her confusingly "of course Ammi, why wouldn't it be" Dilshad looked at Zoya, she seemed very tensed looking out the car window. The car stopped, they finally arrived at the restaurant. Asad got out and opened the door to Zoya's side she got out slowly and thanked him. "Awkward" she said to herself. Asad on hearing this smirked.
They reached inside the restaurant, a waitress approached them with a smile on her face. "Hi welcome did you book a table?" Asad nodded "Yes a table for the Khans please" Dilshad smiled and looked over to Zoya who looked very lost. They were taken to their table.
Zoya felt uneasy for some reason and as they reached their table she thought to herself" I have to sit far away from him" she tried rushing but she tripped over and strong arms caught her holding her by the waist she sighed at his touch, straightening herself "Mr Khan I think I've told you many times that I don't need your help." He rolled his eyes "Of course, how silly of me to help" Zoya felt irritated, her irritation increased when she realised Najma and Phuphi had taken the far seats and the only one was next to him, she braced herself and sat next to him.
Asad felt like laughing aloud but he kept quiet as he saw a nervous Zoya approaching the seat next to him, he lifted his menu up and smirked behind it he then put it down "Najma do you like it?" He smiled "yes Bhai, I love it." She beamed at him. They then ordered the food, Asad couldn't help but gaze at Zoya. She looked ethereal. The food then arrived, and they all tucked in. Asad noticed that Zoya was using a knife and fork, "So Miss Farooqui aswell as your attitude changing you've also improved on your table manners" Zoya spluttered. "Asad, cut it out" Dilshad said glaring at him. Zoya gave him a cut look.
Najma felt ecstatic the meal had gone well and a big birthday cake had been brought in much to her surprise. Although the atmosphere was nice she felt tension sparking between Asad and Zoya but she put it to the side thinking it was probably just their usual nokh jokh, Her Ammi had given her a beautiful set, she gave her Ammi a big hug. She next opened Asad's gift "Oh my god!! A Michael Kors watch! Thank you so much bhai, I love it." Asad grinned at her the last gift was from Zoya she opened it, inside was a beautiful silver bracelet with royal blue gems "wow, Zoya its beautiful thank you" Zoya squeezed her hand and beamed at her. "Thank you so much guys its been the best birthday ever, you guys are amazing" her eyes glistening. They all then chattered amongst themselves.
Zoya felt extremely happy, she was glad that Najma had liked the bracelet she knew how much Najma loved jewellery. Najma was admiring her new watch, Zoya could feel someone's gaze on her and she very well knew who's it was, "Erm, nice choice Mr Khan" she looked down blushing furiously. "Thanks" he replied in a husky voice. Just then the same waitress approached the table, "Hi Mr Khan there's a couple dance going on right now would you and Mrs Khan like to join?" She looked over at Zoya. Zoya was beyond horrified. "Mrs Khan"? She thought to herself "N.." "Actually yes they would, thanks." Dilshad said in a booming voice. "Phupphi what?" Zoya exclaimed, her face looked beyond appalled. "Just go Zoya they asked nicely" Zoya frowned and was about to say no when Mr Khan suddenly took out his hand looking around. "Please Zoya" Dilshad asked once again.
Asad was mortified, how could they have mistaken her for his wife? And then asked to dance with her? "God what is my life" he said thinking to himself. But he didn't want to argue with his Ammi so he sighed and took out his hand, Zoya hesitated and slowly put her hand in his he again felt a spark in her touch, he couldn't deny it now. They made there way to the dancefloor avoiding any eye contact with each other they reached the dance floor and looked around awkwardly, Asad again put his hand out and she gave him a questioning look "Mr Khan, I'm only doing this on Phuphi's insistence don't get too happy" He chuckled, putting a hand on her waist and pulled her forwards.
She felt his hand on her waist, he then pulled her forwards, again she felt a tingling sensation at the pit of her stomach no matter how hard she tried it wouldn't go, "I'm not normally like this around males" she muttered under her breath. She looked up slowly and saw a smirk on his face "What do you think your doing Mr Khan?", he spun her around until they were both facing forwards and he snaked his hands around her waist slowly dancing to the music, "this is only on Ammi's insistence Miss Farooqui" he whispered in her ear. Again his touch made her melt, she blushed a bright red as they danced and she could feel his intense gaze on her. Why was he making her feel so mushy she looked at him, their eyes locked for what seemed a eternity
Precap: Asad and Zoya in the office ;)
