Chapter 36 The arguement
Asad walked back to his room and noticed Dom was not there. He looked around and saw the washroom door closed.
"Maybe he is in the washroom." thought Asad.
He came out and walked to Zoya's room. Suddenly he heard a noise behind him and quickly turned around, almost bumping in Dom.
"This guy was pretty fast and barely made a noise, which was deadly for them." thought Asad.
"So, what's the plan for today?" asked Dom.
"Plan?" asked Asad.
"Yes, plan, how do we catch this guy who wants to kill Zoya." said Dom.
Asad looked at him shocked. "Excuse me, we are not looking for this guy. We would like to stay alive, incase you have not realized that. "
"But if you eliminate the threat then you dont have to worry about staying alive." argued Dom.
"Look, why dont you mind your own business and keep out of ours." said Asad angrily.
"but you have helped me by giving me a place to stay and I would like to repay your hospitality." argued Dom.
"I don't want any repayment. Did I ask for repayment? NO!!! so why are you talking about that. If you want to repay me, then drop this topic and don't ever bring it up and especially not to Zoya. Do you understand?" shouted Asad.
"Yes, sir, I understand, although I don't agree, but whatever you say." said Dom and walked away.
Asad looked at his retreating back and thought about what Dom had said. He hoped to hell that he would not say anything to Zoya because once Zoya got it into her head that after they eliminate this guy, all will be well, she would jump at the chance and nothing and no one would be able to stop her. He was going to make sure Dom stayed away from Zoya.
He turned around to walk to Zoya's room and noticed her standing at the door. Just by the look on her face, he realized she had heard what Dom had said and God help him, he was in for a good fight.
He decided not to say anything and instead said, "So, are we going to play charades tonight as well or do you have a different game?"
"What was Dom talking about?" asked Zoya totally ignoring Asad's question.
"Nothing of importance." replied Asad.
"What was he talking about, I don't care whether it was important or not, what were you two talking about?" asked Zoya sternly.
"Like I said, Ms. Farooki. It was not something that you should worry about." said Asad, relieved that since she was asking him what they had talked about, which meant she had not heard what they said.
"Mr. Khan, answer me." shouted Zoya.
"Ms. Farooki, stop shouting, my ears are hurting. God knows how I am able to survive with you these last few days. You are so loud." argued Asad.
"Mr. Khan, don't push me." shouted Zoya.
"Huh, incase you have not noticed, I am not even close to you to be pushing you. You need your eyes checked." smirked Asad.
"Mr. Khan, you are pushing my limits now." yelled Zoya.
"Alright Ms. Farooki, you really need to rest now. Before you said I was pushing you and now you say I am pushing your limits. What are limits, I don't know because I am standing with my hands in my pocket, am not pushing anything." joked Asad.
"Mr. Khan...you think I don't know what you were talking about? Then you dont know Zoya Farooki. I think Dom is right. We need to eliminate this guy and only then will we be at peace." said Zoya.
Asad stared at Zoya with his mouth open.
"And you can close your mouth, before the flies go in." smirked Zoya.
Asad could not believe it. She had heard everything and was pulling his leg.
"Why were you asking me then, if you heard everything?" asked Asad totally baffled.
"I wanted to see if you would tell me or keep secrets from me and I guess I found out that you would definitely keep secrets from me." said Zoya.
"Ofcourse I would keep secrets from you especially if they were to protect you and save your life." argued Asad.
"Ohh I see, so any other secrets you would tell me?" said Zoya.
"Yes, I mean No...I mean, it doesn't matter. I was just trying to protect you." stammered Asad.
Zoya walked up to Asad and looked at him. "Why do you want to protect me? You don't like me. A couple of weeks ago, you were wishing I was gone."
"I did wish you were gone and I still do, but somewhere safe, I don't want you dead." said Asad, not sure where this was going, but he had a feeling he was being reigned into something.
"Why don't you want me dead? If I am dead then I am out of your life and you don't have to worry about me." said Zoya.
"ZOYA!!!!" shouted Asad and automatically his hand rose at the same time and connected with Zoya's cheek. The sound bounced off the walls causing an echo.
Zoya stumbled and before she fell, Asad caught her and held her tight against him. He held her so close that they could both hear each other's heartbeats. Dom stepped out of his room and said, "What the hell was that? Sounded like a gun shot. You guys ok?"
Suddenly Asad pushed Zoya away and walked out of the room. He did not look at Zoya for fear of what he would see in her eyes. He knew she would be angry that he had slapped her and hurt but he was afraid of what else she might have deciphered from his hug.
