Phew! Well it;s actually nice to see a more mellow chapter.. Asad and Najma's pain was soo heartbreaking... I wonder how Asad really feels about his sister... does he really hate her? Poor Najma.. how is it her fault 😭 My heart literally went out to her... poor soul. Didn't ever meet her mother so I can understand her no mourning her.. but how I hate her thinking that she doesn't deserve to live.
Hmm "When he was wrong he was wrong" Loved that part. Shows that even though he tries to come off as this shrewd businessman, and emotionless person, he's still human and has his moments when his facade comes off, even in front of other people, and especially Zoya.
I also loved that Zoya was still afraid of him. I mean not loved it LOL but loved you for putting it in because god only knows how traumatic it must be to have someone tell you to strip against your will, and then some.
AND OMG ok my three favourite parts (besides the ones above of course! 😆 Who am I kidding? I love every bit of it, but these particular bits stood out the most!)
1. Asad seeing the scene of his mother's burial all over again through that little boy at the cemetery. My heart broke when I read how he screamed and how cold Rashid was toward him. Poor souls. One overcome with grief, and the other still hoping that she may somehow come back to him.
2. Asad's need to see her face, and how he changed his demeanour in front of her. How his coldness and his arrogance went out the window the minute he saw her eyes. How he was nervous seeing her because of his guilt and hatred for himself, was just too exquisitely written. And her reactions in turn were justified, but I couldn't help but feel a little more sorry for him, since he was trying to apologize, and I'm glad Zoya noticed this in his eyes.
3. AND the gift. The gift itself was insignificant, but his gesture, to show her that he was genuinely apologetic. How he acknowledged that she needed things and that it wasn't JUST Ayaan's responsibility, even if she was staying with him. And love her last line "I will never understand you Mr. Asad Ahmed Khan." Just because it's true that he's too multifaceted for her now, AND it kind brought a little humour (to me anyway) and reminded me of the show just a tad 😃
OK DONE WITH MY RANT 🤣 Didn't mean for it to be sooo long 😛 But I can't help it 😉
