Hey Friends,
Chapter 9
"Yes, Zoya my dear, I know who your abbu is..."
Zoya was now furious, "and off course what do you want in return Tanveer, cos you can never do anything out of the goodness of your heart" shouted Zoya. Tanveer laughed "How well do you know me Zoya, I swear we could have been besties" teased Tanveer. "Cut the crap Tanveer, what do you want?" asked Zoya. Tanveer walked over to Zoya and crossed her arms and looked her in the eye "You know what I want Zoya, you have seen the property papers. I want it all. And to sure some good faith you can keep Asad" smiled Tanveer sweetly and thought although after knowing who your abbu is he wouldn't want you either, so I win either way, I have the trump card, Asad cannot stay without my darling son. Zoya watched the play of emotions on Tanveer's face. This woman never failed to surprise her. There was no way she was going to let Tanveer win even if that meant Zoya not finding her abbu. Zoya will not let Tanveer win, "this is all a game to you Tanveer isn't it" asked Zoya walking closer, "You know Tanveer, I never did know my abbu, he was my past. Do you really think I would put in past before my future, " smiled Zoya and continued Zoya "wrong move, you keep forgetting that in any game there is at least 2 players, you have played your move and now it's my turn". Tanveer was now beyond furious that her plan once again backfired "Zoya, don't mess with me you do not know what stone I am made off" growled Tanveer sticking her finger into Zoya's chest. Zoya pushed away her finger and stepped closer "Tanveer, whatever stone you made of eventually disintegrates and turns into dust " Looking at Tanveer square in eye "If I don't ruin you and turn you into dust my name is not Zoya Asad Ahmed Khan" proclaimed Zoya and walked away leaving a stunned Tanveer.
Meanwhile in at Asad's office, Asad was thinking of everything that happened all that was said and done. Everything that was said and done was hard to process but Zoya and showed him proof. He had to believe, he was never an emotional person, and he had to admit to himself that he was a fool when it came to Tanveer. But all that changes now. Zoya was right we have to think about Aakeer, that baby is innocent is all this, Asad picked and the phone and shouted "Prasad, get me lawyers in here now, yes Prasad now, it's urgent" roared Asad, it was time he actually started doing something. Whilst Asad spoke to his lawyers, Dilshaad's physio was going really well. She began walking on her own with a slight limp. The speech therapy was going even better. Dilshaad began saying full words and sentances. As per the therapist, there is nothing wrong with her speech it's just her vocal cords that have been strained from all the stress. Najma called Zoya, and relayed the news to her. Zoya was ecstatic, Dilshaad asked to speak to Zoya, Najma handed Dilshaad the phone, Dilshaad whispered "Zoya" softly, Zoya held the phone closer to her ear and said "ammi" Zoya cried out aloud. Ya Allah, what games you play thought Zoya. I just walked away from my father's empty grave, I turned down the only clue to know who he was and here you have given me an ammi that's loves me so much. What are you trying to tell me Allah Miya thought Zoya? "Zoya" whispered Dilshaad again "come home beta, just come home" Dilshaad could sense Zoya's turmoil. Zoya ended the call and cried for her fate life had dealt her. She thought of everything that happened since she came to India. Zoya was never a negative person, granted life had dealt her some serious blows but look at everything she had, and she has an ammi, 2 wonderful sisters, a jeeju and most of all a husband whom would do anything for her, No Zoya snap out of it. You are stronger than this. So what if your abbu is alive and you have reached another dead end. You just have to still looking. You cannot let Tanveer blackmail you. After Zoya self monologue to herself, she felt better. She wiped her tears and thought of the positive, ammi is getting better and now that Tanveer knows she knows she doesn't have to hide her relationship with Asad, she can finally show the world that they are husband and wife. Zoya smiled and blushed when she thought of the kiss this morning. Life may not be perfect but life is good at the moment, thank you Allah Miya whispered Zoya and made her home. Asad had also finished his meeting with the lawyers and felt confident after a very long time. He looked at the papers and now to just get them signed but how?
Zoya rushed through the door like the toofan she was. "Ammi, ammi" she rushed to Dilshaad and hugged her. Dilshaad smiled at this crazy precious girl. "I am so happy you are getting better" and squeezed Dilshaad again. "Zoya, it's only because of you, thank you beta for coming back and staying her to help us" whispered Dilshaad. "Ammi I had to come back home" said Zoya softly. Dilshaad hugged Zoya tightly, "Zoya, you know I started to notice things go wrong with me after I ate anything prepared by Tanveer, I started feeling more sick as the days went by. Asad and Najma couldn't understand what was going on. We went to several doctors but they couldn't find anything wrong. I never did suspect Tanveer until one day I actually heard her on the phone to someone, Zoya, she switched the recording in the doll and she was asking that person for payment. She caught me listening to her; she did nothing she just smiled. She brought papers for me to sign; it was property papers I refused to sign. I knew something was wrong that's when I started to think of all the incidents that happened, I wrote you that letter – I began to feel my life is danger that's why I wrote you that letter. I searched her room and found the recording for that night Zoya, Asad was drugged Zoya, he did nothing, my son is innocent he did not betray you. I don't know what happened next, but Najma told me I had a stroke" said Dilshaad tearfully. Zoya cried for everything her ammi went through, Zoya put her head on Dilshaad's lap and Dilshaad stroked her hair and continued "and then you came back, Zoya when I saw you, all my hope came back. I was so scared for Asad Zoya, he was broken and I was so scared that she manipulates him into doing something unforgiveable. When you came back I could see my family getting better, thank you Zoya" said Dilshaad as she bent down to kiss Zoya's head. Aakeer who was playing at Dilshaad's feet started gurgling, he wanted some love too Zoya and Dilshaad smiled at the child, Zoya picked him and Dilshaad hugged them both and showered him with love and smiles all this was noticed by a still tearful figure standing at the door like a statue. Asad was shocked at everything he heard. How much had his ammi suffered? His ammi that he would give up his life for smiling, all because he was blinded with friendship. Enough! Roared Asad's brain and heart together. Its time he started acting like the man of his house. He had to protect his family. He looked at the papers in his hand. This is the first step and by hook or crook he would get this first step done. Asad wiped his tears and stepped forward. Aakeer gurgled and smiled some more, Dilshaad and Zoya looked at what Aakeer was making so happy. Asad stood in front of the 2 people that got hurt the most by his ignorance, he face and red rimmed eyes with the tear stains conveyed just how sorry he was. "Asad" whispered Dilshaad. Asad was at his mother's feet in a heartbeat. Asad hugged Dilshaad around her waist and cried "I am sorry ammi, I am so sorry". Dilshaad shook her head and picked up Asad's face "No, Asad no more crying." She wiped his tears and said looking at Zoya "our angel is back and we will all make things better together" Dilshaad kissed Asad's head. Asad held Zoya's hand "Together - yes ammi we will." Zoya smiled back at Asad. Asad could sense something was wrong with Zoya. Zoya excused herself and said that Aakeer needs a diaper change. Asad knew Zoya was hiding something. Asad looked at Zoya walk away. Dilshaad who was watching Asad said "Asad beta, life has given you a second chance, take it with both hands. Do everything now; you never know if there will a tomorrow" Asad held his mother's hand. "Asad, Zoya had her abbu's body exhumed today, I don't know what she found. But you know this pagal girl, she will put everyone's feelings before hers. She never said anything beta, but its clear on her face that she is worried" said Dilshaad, Asad knew Zoya was doing something important today, but this why didn't she tell him. No, he was not going to get upset for that. Whenever she needed him and he will always be there. He remembered her words not so long ago, "Mujhe hamesha ek bharosa rehta hai, ki Mr Khan hai" remembered Asad and he will be there for her always. Asad sat with his mother for sometime catching up. Zoya came back with Aakeer and handed him to Asad and went into the kitchen. Asad saw her dry tears, she will never put herself first ever he thought, no more hiding your pain Zoya Asad resolved. Zoya came back with coffee and handed it to Asad and gave Dilshaad her meds and took her up to rest. Asad was left alone with Aakeer. "Women, Aakeer Miya, you can never figure them out" said Asad to the baby who just coo-ed like he understood.
Asad continued to play with Aakeer when the front door opened. Asad looked up to see Tanveer. How could such a sweet, innocent person be so evil? I guess tehzeeb and tameez is not everything. Asad smiled as he thought of Zoya in the mini skirt and her punch line, this is my clothes Mr Khan not my tehzeeb. Tanveer thought Asad was smiling at her and got happy "Jammy, you are home early" smiled Tanveer "I will get you coffee" she said sweetly. Asad was upset that he got interrupted from his Zoya's daydream, "NO!" he said a little too loudly, Tanveer looked at Asad a little scared, Asad calmed down and said "No, it's okay Tanveer I already have coffee" By hook or crook thought Asad I have to take this step, Zoya the things I do for you thought Asad and got up and held Tanveer around the shoulder and made her sit "Tannu" gritted Asad between his teeth, "I need to talk to you about something" Tanveer was getting happy Asad was trying to get close to her, "Yeah Jammy, you know you can talk to me about anything" said Tanveer holding Asad's hand. Asad cringed took a deep breath in and mentally told himself I am doing this for my family "Tanu, I have been doing some thinking especially since Zoya is back "Asad looked at Tanveer's face, he could see the anger and he continued "I am sure you noticed the way she is throwing around my name joined to hers." Asad smiled when he saw Tanveer get nervous and he continued "I was actually thinking of Aakeer and your future, I did take responsibility the two of you. So I have decided to transfer some of the company shares to your'lls name" said Asad. Tanveer was shocked, this is what she wanted all the time, she wanted it all, but this was small step. Asad could see the joy in her face and could almost hear her evil thoughts and before she regains her composure from her excitement thought Asad he had to get the papers signed whilst she was distracted, he quickly removed his hand and handed her the file to sign "Tannu, I just need to sign this now, so I can give it to lawyers today to make it official as soon as possible" said Asad quickly handing her the pen. Tanveer looked at Asad in pure excitement and then the papers, he saw her read the first page, yes it was company shares on Aakeer's name, Tanveer signed, she turned over the page and Asad held her hand quickly before she could read them "Tannu, I can't tell you how much you and Aakeer mean to me and keeping the 2 of protected is my job" smiled Asad, Tanveer was melting in Asad's hand "Sign quickly Tannu, I have to give this in" Still holding his hands and drowning in his eyes Tanveer signed the papers. Asad quickly grabbed the file from her. "Thank you Jammy, for taking care of us" said Tanveer hugging Asad. Asad was shocked at how quickly she hugged and he was even more shocked when he saw Zoya at the bottom of the stairs fuming. Asad you are dead now thought Asad! Tanveer saw Zoya storm pass and smiled and squeezed Asad some more. Aakeer started crying when he saw Zoya walk pass, Asad quickly pushed Tanveer, saying that he has to go submit these papers. Tanveer looked at Aakeer and said "You are finally becoming of some use" and ignored the crying child and went up to her room to gloat.
Asad handed the papers to Prasad whom he asked to come collect the file and het them filed with courts immediately. Now that was done, it was time to face his dragon, sorry his wife. Asad went to the kitchen to see her busy preparing supper. Asad walked up to Zoya and wrapped his hands around her from behind and nuzzled her hair. "Leave me alone Mr Khan" Zoya emphasised on the Mr Khan and pushed his hands away. But Asad was not giving up that easily "But Mrs Khan" he emphasised on the Mrs Khan "I was doing what was best for us" said Asad. Zoya was furious now "Oh Really, Mr Khan did that kamini aurat have fevicol stuck to her that you were stuck to her" asked Zoya furiously. And Aakeer who Zoya picked up after his mother left him crying was sitting him baby chair was thoroughly enjoying this war going on giggled seeing Asad's plight. Asad smirked he loved when Zoya got jealous "Aakeer miya, you smell something burning I think someone is jealous" smirked Asad looking at Zoya. That was it for Zoya "Jealous my foot!" Zoya looked at Asad spitting fire and said "Why don't you make yourself useful and get Aakeer ready for bed, give him a bath first and out on his pj's" barked Zoya. Asad was amused "Your wish is my command Muibat ki Mallika sahiba, this kaneez is at your service" said Asad picking up Aakeer. Zoya turned around and looked at Asad, her eyes spitting fire. "Ya Allah, Aakeer miya, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" said Asad and Aakeer giggled. Zoya turned around and continued making the salad, when she suddenly felt a kiss on her cheeks and she turned to see Asad smiling childishly with Aakeer in his arms backing away "We still love you Musibat ki Mallika" and then fled the kitchen before Zoya could respond. Zoya turned and smiled, God how she loved that man.
Dinner was a quite affair. Asad, Zoya and Najma let Dilshaad talk most of them time. Dilshaad's voice was music to their ears. Zoya fed Aakeer who was seated in the baby chair between herself and Asad. What a picture perfect family they made. Zoya fed Aakeer whilst OCD Asad kept wiping his mouth. Najma laughed at that picture. Tanveer arrived at the table and was quite surprised to see everyone laughing but what shocked her most was the fact that Dilshaad was talking. Tanveer was getting nervous now. Dilshaad will expose her. Tanveer brushed the thought away, when she remembered this afternoon with Asad. He still trusted her and he himself said that he will always protect her. She had nothing to worry about. Tanveer smiled and faked the happiness towards Dilshaad getting better "Khala, Shukriya Allah ki that you are getting better, this house wasn't the same without you" said Tanveer sweetly. Dilshaad smiled and said "Thank you Tanveer for your concern, it's all thanks to my bahu that I am getting better. Otherwise Allah only knows what would have happened. But Tanveer remember one thing, Allah is watching everything and one day, we all have to answer for our actions. The world is round, what you do onto other will always come back to you tenfold". Tanveer almost choked on her food. "Careful Tanveer. Just now you would say I mixed something in your food only" said Zoya sweetly knowing Tanveer would understand the meaning. Dinner continued and everyone noticed Zoya ignoring Asad. This pleased Tanveer, who thought everything, was going according to plan. But just to be sure "Jammy, will you please make Aakeer sleep with you tonight, he hardly slept last night" asked Tanveer sweetly. Thank you my son, said Tanveer in her head, you can stop any late night visits. Asad picked up Aakeer and went in his room whilst Zoya and Najma cleared the table. Tanveer took this an opportunity to "talk" to Dilshaad "come khala, I will take you to your room" said Tanveer sweetly. Dilshaad shrugged her arm off "No! You are a guest in our home, if you want you can help Najma with the dishes, my bahu will take me to my room" said Dilshaad. Zoya went to Dilshaad's side and helped her stand up. As they walked pass Asad's room, Dilshaad stopped at his door, Asad was laying on the bed playing with Aakeer and Zoya's music box was playing in the back ground, Dilshaad looked at Zoya "you know Zoya every night, I think he played that music box more for himself than for Aakeer" smiled Dilshaad at Zoya. Zoya took Dilshaad to her room and helped her settle into bed and gave her meds. Zoya wished Dilshaad good night and Dilshaad told her "Zoya beta, never go to bed upset, if it helps stay up and continue fighting" Dilshaad smiled with a twinkle in her eye.
Everyone had retired to bed. Zoya went to check on Aakeer not Asad she kept telling herself but Aakeer. She opened his door and found he was not there. She went up to the terrace and saw Asad trying to make Aakeer sleep. "See Aakeer miya, I told you she would come looking for us, sorry I mean you" said Asad speaking to Aakeer but looking at Zoya. Zoya ignored him and sat on the bench. "Still upset Aakeer Miya, maybe it time I tell her just how much she means to me sorry I mean us" said Asad making Zoya look at him with a hint of surprise in her eyes. And Asad began singing looking at Zoya ... (AN: listen to this song whilst reading... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcJLjgxIwq0 )
tu ne zindagi mein aake
You came into my life,
tu ne zindagi mein aake zindagi ho zindagi badal di
you came into my life and changed it completely.
tu ne pyaar yuun nibhaake zindagi ho zindagi badal di
You fulfilled our love and changed my life completely.
tu ne zindagi mein aake zindagi ho zindagi badal di
You came into my life and changed it completely.
zindagi badal di
You changed life utterly.
Asad walked around to Zoya still holding Aakeer on his chest and sat down next to her and continued singing..
ishq mein tere ham kya se kya ho gaye
What have I changed into, and from what, in my love for you?
bhuulkar yeh jahaan bas tumhaare ho gaye
Forgetting this world, I became yours alone.
tere bin ae sanam hain adhuure se ham
Without you, beloved, I'm more than incomplete.
mil gaye tum hamein khwaab puure ho gaye
I found you, and my dreams came true.
tu ne faasle mitaake
You erased the distances,
tu ne faasle mitaake zindagi ho zindagi badal di
you erased the distances and changed life completely.
zindagi badal di
You changed life completely.
tu ne zindagi mein aake zindagi ho zindagi badal di
You came into my life and changed it completely.
zindagi badal di
You changed life completely.
aisi diwaanagi hamne dekhi nahin
I've never seen such madness;
jaan-e-jaan sochkar hamko lagta hai Dar
thinking about it, love, I get scared.
yeh to ek daur hai sach to kuchh aur hai
This is but a stage (in time), but the truth is something else.
kal jo honewaala hai uski kis ko khabar
Who can know what will happen tomorrow?
is mor par yuun laake
Having brought me to this turn in the road,
is mor par yuun laake zindagi ho zindagi badal di
having brought me to this turn, you changed life completely.
You came into my life and changed it completely.
zindagi badal di
You changed life completely.
The intensity of the song in Asad's voice with his expression melted Zoya. Zoya had tears flowing from her eyes. How could she have even for a minute think she could have given this man and his love up for her abbu. Zoya ran to Asad and wrapped her arms around Asad and Aakeer. Asad put his available hand around her and hugged her tight. " I love you Zoya more than my life" said Asad softly. "I love you too Mr Khan hamesha and forever" said Zoya. Asad broke the hug and placed Aakeer on in his stroller and covered him. Asad turned to Zoya and made her sit down, Asad wiped her tears and turned her face and slowly moved his lips over hers, Nothing was sweet as a salty kiss, as tear stained lips, as grateful surrender. Zoya sighed and pushed her hands into Asad's hair urging him down onto her lips. They devoured each other lips as their tongues duelled. Eventually they came up for air. Asad held onto Zoya and Zoya onto Asad. Zoya was content now, she had made her mind up that all that mattered was the here and now. "Zoya, Ammi told me that you had your abbu's body exhumed today. I would have really wanted to be there with you, but I understand it was something you wanted to do by yourself but Zoya, I want to be a complete part of your life and when you need me I will always be there, silent and strong just like you are for me okay, maybe not the silent part." Teased Asad and Zoya hit his arm and put her head on his shoulder Asad continued "Zoya, I know you finding your abbu is something you have to do but please know that I don't care who he is and quite honestly whether he is alive or dead, I know that's harsh but Zoya all that matters to me is you" said Asad and kissed Zoya's head . Asad then handed Zoya the file. Zoya looked at Asad puzzled, Asad explained "I am sorry Zoya, what you saw earlier was just to get this signed, I had to do something, by hook or crook. This was the only thing holding us back from kicking Tanveer out of our lives, but it's done now. We have no more excuses. I am sorry Zoya I did this without speaking to you but this something I will do and I understand if you cannot stand by me in this" explained Asad. Zoya was puzzled and a little scared. She opened the file and read, Asad watched her eyes become round as saucers, as everything sank in Zoya looked at Asad and tears began to fill in her eyes, "Asad, adoption papers?" asked Zoya surprised. Asad smiled. Zoya looked at Aakeer asleep in the stroller and asked again needing some verbal confirmation, "Asad, Tanveer signed the adoption paper, Aakeer is ours..."
