Part 12 - Party With A Twist.
Purvi's POV
The house is looking wonderful. Orchids were everywhere. I just love it. My friends are here, my family is here and my Arjun is here. Only aie and baba know about Arjun and I. I have found a life partner but Zoya hasn't. I hope she finds a good guy to help her. She was at a delicate age when she lost her parents. I have my family but who has she got. She is all alone. She has no one in this world. Then I saw Zoya walking up to me.
Zoya: Purvi, the house looks awesome. So awesome. I love what uncle and aunty did with the orchids. It smells so good too.
Purvi: 😔 yeah real awesome.
Zoya: Purvi, you don't sound too good. Are you ok. Whats bothering you?
Purvi: Arre kuch nahi zoya, I'm just feeling a bit tired.
Zoya: You sure. Is there something you are not telling me.
Purvi: No there is nothing that I am not telling you.
Zoya: Ok then. I'm gonna join the girls. Come on.
Purvi: Its ok zoya. Tu jau, main aajayega.
Zoya: Teekh hai.
No Ones POV
Najma: This party is so awesome. Hena bhaijaan?
Asad: Yeah it is. Where is Miss Farooqui?
Najma: Pata nahi bhaijaan, she was just here a minute ago. Kahan dhoond rahe ho usse. I'm sure she will come. Anyway bhaijaan since when do you ask about Zoya?
Asad: What huh.
Najma: I just asked you a question bhaijaan.
Asad could not listen to his sister because he was too busy gaping at zoya who was coming down the stairs in a cream coloured saree. It looked perfect on her. Najma on the other hand was getting bored of asking her bhaijaan the same question over and over again. She looked at her bhaijaan. She followed his eyes and saw Zoya running down the stairs.
Najma: Shayad, zoya pehli baar saree pehnti hai. Abko kya laga bhaijaan.
Asad: Probably.
Najma: Achcha teekh hai bhaijaan, main change karti hoon. Ammi ne mujhe ek naya suit laya. Toh mujhe us suit pehnti hai.
Asad: Ammi, when did she give you the suit.
Najma: Just before college.
Asad: Ok, you go change.
Soon the hall was empty because all the guests went out to the garden. Zoya was again running down the stairs but her pallu was too long. She slipped on her pallu while falling down but luckily was caught by Asad just in the nock of time.
Asad's POV
I saw Zoya running down the stairs. Her pallu was too long. This was definitely the first time she wore a saree but she still looked beautiful. Why is she running? She will trip. God this girl is going to be the end of me. I better go to the stairs to make sure she does not fall. Just when I thought that. She tripped but I was close enough to catch her. it felt like time had slowed down. Like we were the only ones in this entire world. Just Zoya and I. Her soft hair blowing in the wind. Her milky white skin complementing her cream coloured saree. Her eyes, oh her eyes. Anyone can get lost in those eyes. When you stare into her eyes, it is like a deep abyss, full of mixed emotions, happiness and also sadness. Her lips. So full, so pink. She was the epitome of beauty. " Asad what are you thinking" I thought. This girl is completely different from me. Totally incompatible but why does she bring out these feeling that I never felt before.
Zoya's POV
Did he just catch me. Don't look into his eyes, not the eyes, not the eyes, I kept chanting in my head. I could not help myself. I had to look. Anyone can get lost in those eyes. And those muscles. Does he work out? What a weird question. It doesn't matter right. He does not care for me but then why would he catch me. He could have let me just fall but he didn't. We are completely different.
No Ones POV
They are so different yet so perfect together. They do not realise it but their heart do. Their hearts are yearning to be one, to be together but their mind stops them. The saying mind over matter should change to heart over mind because when your heart tells you something, that means its true.
Precap - BOOM!!!
Geet - Hui Sabse Parayee
