Thank you for your responses guys. And qhid, starrdee, Anjali, humpty,ithasme- I'm glad you guys enjoyed the post 😃

I wish I could reply to all your comments but I'm on my phone and quoting is a miserable task when using your phone to post.

Qhid and ranz- definitely true about Asad. The sorrow was so palpable. Qhid that is a great point- Asad is a stubborn man and he wont see the light any time soon. Zoya will fill the void in Asad's life by not only introducing him to a lighter way of living which he missed out in his childhood but she will also facilitate reconciliation with his dad. It's ironic given how things are turning out in her own life. She came to India to find her dad but she will end up helping Asad find his while being disappointed in her own.

Humpty- yes she surely said that in reference to her dad but we are looking at how that dialogue impacted Asad and how it was perceived by him- like you said, it might trigger him to be more proactive about Zoya. Zoya misses a father figure in her life. Asad can fulfil both roles in her life- that of a lover and that of pillar (which father figures usually are). When you're in love with someone, I think it's natural to want to care for them and to fill all the gaps in their life and so on- which is what I thought Asad was implying by trying to hold her hand.

Hi... Interesting post 😛

Certainly there was depth in his pain when Zoya mentioned she wished to leave. He was to hold her hand when she expressed her willingness to leave.

Surely Asad is no more turning away from the calling of his heart... he's no more fighting with himself and her, instead he's ready to let himself go and for once has put his defenses down. But just as he was gonna express it to her... may be not a confession but a deed... actions speaks louder than words and Mr. Khan is a man of actions... so when he was going to express it now, at a time when he knew things were spinning and falling around her... he wished to pull her out of the whirlpool of her pain... no more under the disguise of a prank or a fun-filled moment, not a reaction to her initiated action... but this time it was simply to be with her! But inadvertently zoya drew a line between them... ofcourse at this point of time she's vulnerable and doesn't realize the implications of her words or actions on him, heck she doesn't comprehend the beatings of her own heart... but i m scared at a moment like this, this might push Asad back into the shell and he would refrain from any sort of expression.

May be I'm wrong, but i think I read a question in his eyes, "Can you really leave?" The probability had clearly not crossed his mind, he has been so used to her presence in his house and life that he might have forgotten that she was a guest... as for him she was no more a guest but the one he's willing to share his life with. So her voicing out her thoughts of departure were a rude shock. Till date, she has reciprocated his advances, subtly though but the blush and smile were all the responses that he needed. Today it might make him think back... questioning himself if he's the only one affected by her and if he means nothing to her? He might have doubts now if its that easy for her to leave everything behind including him. There was disbelief written all over his face as she uttered the words he couldn't even imagine. Fear of rejection and being left behind alone to fend for himself might push him back.

Hi
I may be totally off track here ..but i felt it could be other way round too,,,
Asad may have acted aloof n stubborn all his life .. but his heart is bleeding for zoya's pain... and may be he understands her pain coz this is what he went thru when rashid left them but he was never able to vent out his feelings ..rather simmered in his pain all these yrs..
he knws the feeling of being lonely and running away from problems hopign in vain that they dont follow u..just like zoya is trying to do by leaving to US.
His expressions probably were coz he could understand that zoya now needs more than just superficial consolation.. She now needs more than just friends..she needs someone she can call her own n be in family.. and he has to bridge that gap for her and not let her become like him.(cold , lonely n withdrawn)
he want to help her out of love and cant bear to see her go away but dont think he is ready to accept how much he loves her and how much zoya loves him.. i guess both r still trying to live in denial abt it...

Yup he does pull back in response to her comment about returning. But did he do so merely from shock or because he realized the futility in expecting too much from someone who is meant to go away?!

Zoya is herself in so much pain n shock and they both have never openly accepted that they like/want each other.. Isnt asad suddenly expecting too much out of zoya at such a delicate moment?
she is so much traumatized with the truth.. n asad has never openly admitted that he wants her to stay..then y suddenly he is supposed to be going cold from her response...
i think that would be not nice of him..
His expressions probably were coz he could understand her pain and sees a reflection of his cold past in her tears.. and that she wont even give him a chance to help her..
