<font color="#330099">Zoya darling, you said what we have been saying all along. Earlier, Asad had always berated her in front of others and out of respect for Dilshaad or others, Zoya had tolerated his bitter and reprimanding words but today, Asad did the right thing- he took her aside and discussed the issue in private. Guess what, Asad mian- if you can growl, so can she, if you can bite, so can she and if you can spew venom, so can she.</font>

<font color="#330099">Zoya's words hit hard and not a single word that she said was untrue</font>

<font color="#330099">- she has always done things to please him. To be fair, he has tried a few times- remember the cheese cake? As they say bitter words once said can never be forgotten and Asad should have realized today that he can't buy Zoya with cheesecakes and gifts. Unless he respects her as a person, he will always be on the receiving end of her wrath.</font>

<font color="#330099">- She didn't mince her words about his judgmental nature. Yes, he has always judged people by their appearance but again, to be fair, he has changed for the better (albeit just a little). That's why, at the Jashne bahar, he was upset about the kurti but accepted her once she sat next to him. For the most part, he is still prejudiced and judgmental in nature.</font>

<font color="#330099">- 'yeh mere kapde hain,mera character nahin' This was a direct reference to Tanveer. While she is investigating Tanveer's evil plan, she has realized that behind those heavy salwaar kameez's lies a cunning and evil person. The day, Asad realizes this, would be the day of enlightenment for him.</font>

<font color="#330099">Asad was enraptured by the woman in a bridal lehnga at the dargah but in reality, it's Zoya's fiesty nature and her independent way of thinking that's drawn him to her. The day she becomes a doormat, he will probably lose all respect for her. I think that's what was happening over the last few weeks. Zoya had become more docile,more compliant and fearful of rejection. Today, she was clear- don't marry me if I am not the right girl!</font>

<font color="#330099">So, we might see a different Asad tomorrow. He knows what Zoya thinks of him. If he really loves her, he will hopefully ponder over her words and try to change himself.</font>

<font color="#330099">Is it Tanveer's revelation that's given Zoya the confidence or has she had enough of Asad's judgmental nature that she snapped today? Whatever it is, I am happy that out Lioness is back.</font>

<font color="#330099">Now, it's the lion's turn to win his lioness back with respect, trust and lots of unconditional love.</font>
