AsYa ff: Moments in Time: Last Chapter Pg 55 - Page 3

"For how long you will be like this? Gather yourself Asad. This is not the time to repent on anything. My daughter left you because she had to. I won't blame her. She had done that to make you happy. I have told you before also, now again I am telling you. You'll get a better girl than Zoya' Who compliments you better' Who fit into your life smoothly' Asad, consider that option for once'"

Finished Gafoor Sidhique with trembling voice. He didn't knew how to console the young man infront of him' the man whom his daughter loved with all her heart' the man who made his daughter genuinely smile' the man who could have been his son-in law' the man who is now grieving in the loss of the girl whom he loved' Gafoor know it's futile to force such a proposal upon Asad. But he is helpless, he had to do that' for his daughter's happiness'

Asad looked at the person who could have been his father-in law. He could see the genuine concern in his eyes.

"Uncle, I don't want a girl who compliments me. I don't want a girl who fits into my life smoothly' I want a girl who can love me with all she has' I want a girl who will go any length to make me happy' I want a girl who can fill light in my life'I want my Zoya back' Only she can do these things' No one will be able to make me feel the way she does' She fought against the entire world for me' for our love' Now it's my time to fight' for her' for our love' And I will do that' until my last breath'"

Gafoor sighed in defeat. He knew Asad and Zoya's love was special. They loved each other insanely. But what he didn't know that they were ready to sacrifice everything they have for each other.

Somewhere in Mumbai

A beautiful girl clad in white salwar suite was standing at the bus stop, her hand fidgeting the end of her duppatta. That sole gesture combined with the frown in her face indicated that she was waiting for someone impatiently. The frown was replaced with relief then with anger as she saw a bike coming towards her. She looked on as the bike stopped infront of her and a handsome guy with curly hairs stepped out of the bike.

"Hi Humeira beigum' did I made you wait soo much'?"

"Oh shut up Ayaan. Don't call me beigum' I am not your beigum and never will be'"

"Oops' I think someone is angry'Look Humeira I am really sorry' I have been stuck up with traffic'"

One look at Humeira and Ayaan knew, he was gone. He cursed the last night's party because of which he overslept. Humeira was fuming like a volcano.

"Oh come on Humeira' I am sorry. Please forgive me this time'"

"Ayaan' Do you have any idea how many times you had said these lines to me this week? You won't change, will you? We have been given an ultimatum by our chief editor and here you are coming late."
"What's the big deal yaar? We have to write an article about an impressing real life love story. That's it na?"

"Allah Miyaan. How can you say that so casually? Do you have any idea how important it is for us? If we diodnt do this properly, we will be sacked. SACKED'"

Ayaan throwed his hand in air in desperation as he watched Humeira blabbering. To stop her from blabbering anymore he pulled her towards himself and kept his fingers on her lips.

"Shhh..."

Humeira eyes went wide like saucers. Her big baby brown eyes locked with his azure eyes. She found herself drowning in those orbs. She was jerked back to reality as Ayaan left her hand and stepped aside.

"You girls speak too much yaar' you make big problem out of a small one'"

To cover up her the feelings she have just experienced in Ayaan's arms, Humeira went back to her angry self.

"Acha Bachu' you are the one who came late' you are the one who is irresponsible and now you are blaming me' Arghh' lets come to the point. We need to find a person who is in love ASAP. Then only we can work on the story."

"When Ayaan is here why fear? By the way I hate this job. All they want is to write about love"

Humeria couldn't help but to frown at his words. What was soo wrong about love?

"Why? What's the problem with writing about love? After all it is a magazine about love' Love is the most beautiful feeling in the world where you lose yourself completely. Where you will be ready to spend the rest of your life with someone' the one who will become the center of your universe' the one who will make you complete'"

Humeira finished in a dreamy voice. Ayaan looked at her in awe and in the next moment he burst into laughter.

"Seriously Humeria? Do you believe in all these? True love' soul mates' It's all in stories. People still believes anything and everything associated with love' No wonder why the owners named our magazine as 'Love It Is'' But I don't think such thing exists in this world' Love my foot' I tell you, come out of your dream land and face the reality'"

Humeira knew it's futile to argue with Ayaan as his pea sized brain won't accept the truth. How she wished he to be out of the cynical mode about love. But some people never change

"Ayaan, I am not gonna argue about it. You believe what you want and I will believe what I want. Now at least can we start our work? We need to find a couple'"

"Humeira, that work is already done"

"What?"

"Yes you heard it right. I have already got the person whom we are gonna do the article'"

Humeira was shocked will be an understatement. Ayaan have never done any job till now beforehand. Nevertheless she was happy that they had finished the biggest problem.

"Oh that's soo thoughtful of you Ayaan. By the way, on whom we are going to do that'"

"Asad Ahmed Khan'"

"What? You mean The Asad Ahmed Khan?"

"Yup. The Asad Ahmed Khan' The superstar of Hindi Film Industry' The same person who was once considered as the Play boy' The same person on whom thousands of girls are ready to die for'"

"But Ayaan' Don't you think this is risky? I mean' he is really popular' if we are going to uncover his love life, it may create a ruckus."

"Exactly' That's why we need to take this risk' He is every girl's heartthrob. It's time to show the world what that man really is' Through him we will uncover the truth that the true love which we see in films does not exists in real life. All that exist is betrayal'"

"What if you proved wrong Ayaan? What if true love exists in his life?"

"Asad and True love? Never'. He is famous as a playboy. He had already broken his marriage with his first wife Tanveer. That man's life is a mess. He never was a true lover and never will be'"

"Ayaan' You cannot tell anything' Love has its own accord' it comes when we least expects it' it can change anything and everything in this world'"

"Whatever Humeira' I am sure your 'so called love' can't change Asad'. Mr. Asad Ahmed Khan, here we come' Get ready to face your inner demons..."

What Ayan didn't knew at that time was true love really exists and it did change Asad Ahmed Khan'
