Chapter 1- And it starts...

"So basically we have to think about something unique. Because this car has just average features and nothing new to offer. We'll have to crack our brains and come up with something. So, any ideas?", Zoya asked, looking at the twelve blank faces staring back at her.

"C'mon guys! We have to design an ad by next week. IDEAS!!! C'Mon!",she asked again, taking her seat in the conference room.

"Zoe! The car is just useless. Who'll buy it? We have nothing much to advertise in it",Mark said.

"That's the challenge Mark. Ideas!", she answered.

She had to think about something. There was pressure on her from the CEO and still she hadn't come up with anything. She looked around at the clueless faces.

'I am surrounded by idiots',she thought, slapping her forehead.

"We can do one thing",she was pulled out of her 'I-hate-my-job' thoughts by a manly voice. She looked up to see everyone listening intently to what Asad was saying.

"I was thinking.. Since the product has nothing much to offer, we'll have to hide its average features and put light only on the physical features since that's the only thing worth in it. Ask the client to spend 1-2 crores and we can get a celebrity to endorse it. He can drive the car in scenic locations and our work is done",Asad completed.

Contrary to what he had expected, silence greeted him.

"What? Was it that bad?",he asked, expecting some reaction.

"Bad? It was excellent!!! That's what we need to do",Zoya stood up from her chair in excitement. Her reaction was followed by applause from all.

"I'll talk to Boss about this. Meeting is adjourned",Zoya announced, as everyone got up to leave.

"Umm… Mr Khan?",Zoya called Asad from behind.

They were left alone in the cabin( unfortunately)

Zoya didn't know what to say or what to think. She didn't know why but she had this tickling feeling inside her stomach whenever he looked at her like that. Those eyes… deep Brown. The kind you can look into and feel like you are getting lose. Deep inside them, she could see anger,pain, anguish. She felt an urge to take away all his pain ,envelope him in her arms, and curve his lips into a perennial smile.

She was pulled out of her trance by the click of his fingers.

"Miss Farooqi? You okay?",Asad asked.

"Ya!Ya! I just wanted to thank you. I was stuck in this since a week and you solved my problem instantly. Thank you so much Asad.. Umm.. I mean Mr Khan",Zoya said with a smile,embarrassed at her fumble.

"No Problem",he said and turned to go.

"Zoya let out a deep breath.

"And yes, I don't mind you calling me 'Asad' ",he said with a small smile playing on his lips, turning back to face her.

She nodded in response as he went back to his desk.

She could feel her lips cuve into a smile as she observed him. He was so engrossed in his work that he was not affected by anything around him. There was something about him which was pulling her towards him, something dark,something mysterious. The way he tucked his pen between his teeth was so adorable, so contrary to his character.

"Zoe! Lunch time! Are you gonna stand here and stare at him the whole day?",Zoya heard Karen's voice behind her.

"What! No! I was NOT staring at him",Zoya blurted out, embarrassed at being caught.

"I can see that very well",Karen said with a chuckle.

~~~~

"Tomorrow night is going to be so much fun!!",Karen squealed as both of them walked into the office.

"Goodmorning Happy Ji",Zoya greeted the watchman as he nodded with a smile. She turned back to Karen.

"What is tomorrow night?",she asked Karen, pretending to be clueless.

"Are you for real Zoe?",Karen asked, giving her a Why-Are-you-even-alive- look.

Zoya let out a chuckle. Karen was the cutest thing on the planet. And more than that she was her best friend. She was her room mate. Zoya was glad she had met Karen. She made Zoya's life easier in New York.

"Its New Year Kar. I know. Your reactions are priceless", Zoya said, giggling. The next moment she received a tap on her head by Kar.

"Zoe, Will you be inviting him or should I do the honours?",Karen asked, with a creepy smile.

"Invite whom? To where?"

"Gosh! New year Paty Zoe! Mark's house like everytime! And Hotties have to be invited personally, right?",she answered with a wink.

Zoya rolled her eyes. She knew where Karen was going.

"I got it. But shouldn't Mark invite the new 'employee himself?",she asked.

"Oh God Zoe! Leave it!",Karen said, hitting her head. She bumped straight into the man himself.

"Oh! Hey Asad! How are you doing?",Karen asked Asad with a warm smile.

"Fine. Good Morning Karen",he greeted her and turned to go.

"Wait a second Asad! I wanted.. I mean.. We wanted to invite you to our New Years Party tomorrow",Karen said to him.

"Um.. Sorry, I don't like parties. I like to be alone",Asad said, giving her an apologetic smile.

Zoya pouted.

'

Why was he not coming! What would she do there all alone! Oh wait Zoe, He is not your oxygen. Shut up and focus', Zoya thought to herself.

"I am not taking a NO for an answer Asad. Its compulsory. You can bring your family too. You have to come. Please Please!",Karen pleaded.

"Chill. Fine. I'll come. What time?",he asked.

'He agreed! Yippeee! Uirg… Why am I getting so excited! Stop it Zoe!'

"8pm tomorrow. Mark will give you the address",Karen said as she shook his hand and left he left towards the Boss's cabin.

'He didn't even look at me, let alone greet me. Gosh! So What! What is wrong with me!",Zoya mentally slapped herself as she hurriedly seated herself and got engrossed in her work. She needed to stop thinking about him.

"Miss Farooqi?",she heard a familiar voice and looked up.

Asad Ahmed Khan. Not Again!

"Umm.. Why are you holding your file upside down?",he asked, raising an eyebrow.

Zoya looked down at her hands. Shit! What was wrong with her! She put the file on the table and stood up angrily.

"My File! My style! What is your problem?"

"That's not called 'style'. That's sheer stupidity! Who reads a file upside down!!"

"I do"

"You are strange"

"I am different"

"You are stupid"

"Excuse Me?"

"May your brain rest in peace,that is, if you have one",he said, as he took his seat.

Zoya stood there speechless. She had successfully made a fool of herself.

'Damn it!',Zoya screamed at herself mentally,'This guy will drive me crazy'.
