CHAPTER SIXTEEN :
'Ok fine. I surrender ! Tell me when do you want to get married ?' He said with a smirk on his face. She was shocked. She wiped her tears by her own this time and smiled mischievously, there was no need to cry anymore.
'Miss Farooqui, did you try to fool me with your tears ?' He was shocked at her act.
'No Mr Khan, how can I ? I am not as smart as you are.' She tried to hide her smile. She was really happy that her plan worked.
'I think I should think about my decision again.' He said to irritate her.
'Don't you dare even say that. Lets just go back where we were. I was going to say Is this the way to propose a beautiful girl ? You are so unromantic Mr Khan.' She said angrily.
'See I told you, you will regret. You are complaining me at the very first moment of our relation. I was right.' He was enjoying irritating her.
'Allah Miyaan ! What's wrong with you Mr Khan ? I was just asking anyways, tell me when will you marry me ?'
'Whenever you say, wherever you say.' He said.
'Ok let me talk to Sam, Abbu and aapi. Sam is most important to me in my family. Let me ask her when she can come. I will let you know soon.' She said finally.
'And where is this wedding going to take place ? I mean in London, Rome or Doha ?' He asked her.
'London, Rome or Doha anywhere you say but we are going to come to Italy for our honeymoon for sure.' She said while making her plans.
'Honeymoon ? Are you kidding me ? I don't have time for these things. According to my plans, after this Nikaah thing, next day I will be back to my office.' He said in a serious tone. She was looking at him in disbelief.
'I think you should think about your decision again.' He said to annoy her.
'I am damn sure that I want to marry you. Stop irritating me now. Love has the power it can change anyone.' She was talking about him.
'How sweet. You will change yourself for me ?' He said like he was happy to know that.
'No, you are going to change yourself and I know how to do that. Just wait and watch.' She said proudly.
'I don't think so, you are just self obsessed.' He said while looking into her eyes.
'Oh really ?? You will get to know soon what I am.' She said angily.
'Anyways, my last day of exhibition is on Sunday. I will go back to London then, will you come there for me ?' She asked him.
'I will.' He said.
'And ya do bring a ring for me. This is not a way to propose a girl.' She said.
'Ok I will. What kind of rings do you like ?' He asked her.
'I think diamond would work.' She said while thinking.
'Ok I will buy that for you.' He said smiling at her expressions.
'Are you going now ?' She looked at him with sad face.
'Yes I have to but I will call you soon.' He said still holding her. He wasn't feeling like leaving.
'Yes, do call me when you are there and don't think too much in flight. Don't you dare change your decision or else I will come there and kill you. Just think about our future and. . . . .' She was stopped by his cold lips.
Just a touch of softness and warmth when he pulled back, he rested his forehead with her for a second. She was still shocked when again he closed the distance. His one hand was in her messy bun now. She closed her eyes this time, kiss was gentle at first but then he increased the pressure and it turned into a passionate kiss. She moved her hands to his hair and kissed him back. They kissed for almost two minutes and he moved back slowly.
That was just like a 'WoW' moment for both of them.
She was not looking at him now, she was blushing, she wanted to move back but he was holding her tightly from her waist. She never thought in her wildest dreams that there first kiss would be at airport, infront of everyone.
He was also surprised at himself. He just wanted to stop her blabbering. Well it did work but at airport ? But no one cares here. He looked at her. Is she blushing ? She can blush too.
'So you were saying something ?' He asked her to irritate her. He was enjoying her blush.
'Nothing. . . . I think. . .Mr Khan. . . you are getting late.' She said in a low voice. She was still not looking at him. He heard announcement for his flight.
'Call me Asad and then I will let you go.' He was enjoying her expressions.
'Asad, you are getting late.' She said after a while. He was happy to know his name in her voice.
'Take care of yourself, for me.' He raised her face and kissed her forehead.
'You too.' She was still blushing so she couldn't say anything more. He smiled at her and moved back even he didn't want to and walked away.
-----------------------------------
'Sammm, I am so so so happy.' Zoya called her and started before she could say anything.
'Yess ! I can feel that.' Sam said happily.
'Guess what ?' Zoya asked her.
'Your show's opening was good ?' Sam guessed.
'Yes it was but this news is bigger. I am getting married.' Zoya said.
'What ? With whom ?' She was not so happy to hear this surprise.
'I told you about him remember, we met in Rome. He proposed me today.' She was getting more excited now.
'Have you told dad about this ?' Sam asked her.
'No, I will call him soon. I wanted to share with you first.'
'I don't know how should I react ? I want you to stay happy, I already have alot of experience with Indians. First dad, then I told you what Ayaan's brother tried to do with me and then I got married to Hashim, who is nothing in my comparison.' Sameerah started to convince her again.
'Ayaan's brother was a bas***d, don't remind me about him and besides I told you before your marriage to just leave everything. Anyways, will you come on my wedding ?' Zoya asked her. She really hated to talk about Ayaan's brother and Hashim.
'Yes ofcourse I will come. You are my little sister how can I miss your wedding. When are you getting married ?' Sam wanted her to be happy.
'I will let you know in two or three days.' Zoya said and cancelled the call. She called her aapi now.
------------------------------------
He was back home. He was happy. He never felt that much happy ever in his life. He was loving himself, his life. Everything felt good. He took shower and came out. His phone started ringing.
'Yes Zoya ?' He felt happy taking her name.
'What were you doing ?' She asked him.
'I was just going to sleep.' He said intentionally.
'What ? You even didn't inform me that you have reached there and now you are going to sleep without talking to me.' She said angrily.
'Complaint no: 2. In last 14 hours, this is your second complaint.' He said.
'I won't leave you even if I will have thousands of complains from you.' She said loudly.
'Ok don't leave me but now let me sleep, I have to wake up early and I am tired.' He smiled at her and said.
'You are so rude, Mr. . I mean Asad.' She said.
'Complaint no: 3.' He said again. She was getting irritated by this word now and he was enjoying all this.
'Fine ! Go to sleep.'
'Ok I am but listen.' He said.
'Now what ?' She said like she was not interested.
'I love you and I always will. I know I am not that romantic but still i want you in my life. I want to enjoy my life with you, I want to feel colors only if you are with me Zoya.' He said and she finally smiled.
'Will you call me in the morning ?' She asked him.
'Yes I will. I wish you were here, I want to share my life with you, everything life did with me I want to tell you. I want you to say "you were not wrong Asad." because no one believed me. I want you to believe me and listen to me.' He said in sad voice.
'I believe you Asad and I always will.' She said.
------------------------------------
'Ciao bella.' He called her after getting ready.
'Ciao. Did you sleep ?' She asked him while getting ready for last day of her show.
'Yes I did.' He said.
'You must have slept thinking about me then.' She said proudly.
'Yes I did and I will think about you whole day to feel happy.' He said.
'That's good and I love you Asad.' She said for the first time.
'How much ?' He said while drinking his coffee.
'You can't even imagine. I can do anything for you.' She said happily.
'Can you stop painting for me?'
'Yes.'
'Can you stop going to Rome for me ?'
'Yes.' She said without thinking once.
'If you can leave these two things for me then you really love me.' He said happily.
'You just need to trust me.' She said.
'I do trust you, its just that I am afraid of my fate.' He was still scared of his destiny.
'Don't think about past anymore. Think about us, about our future.' She said.
'I will. Now I am driving so I will talk to you later.' He said and started driving his car.
-----------------------------------
He was back home. He thought he should tell about his marriage to his mother. He never called her, she was the one who always called him. He dialed her number in hope that she will pick up the phone.
'Asaalam O Alaikum Ami.' He said when he heard her voice.
'Walekum Salam beta, Tum theek ho na ?(How are you ?)' She was worried because he never called her before.
'Mein theek hoon, aap kesi hain ?(I am fine. How are you ?)' He asked her.
'Mein bhi theek hun. Sab theek hai na ? Tum kuch kehna chahte ho ?(Fine. Is everything ok ? You want to say something ?)' She can feel he was happy.
'Yes Ami, Actually I am getting married.' He was happy that there is someone in his family, he can share his happiness with.
'Kya ? Waqai ? Mein bohat khush hoon Asad, kaun hai woh ?(What ? I am so happy Asad. Who is the girl ?)' She asked her.
'Uska naam Zoya Farooqui hai. She is a painter. She belongs to India but lives in London.' He said.
'Is she beautiful ? Will she look good with my handsome son ?' She asked him. He smiled.
'Yes she is beautiful. I will send you her pictures.' He said.
'Mein usse milna chahti hoon Asad.(I want to meet her.)'
'Ammi. . . . .'He was confused.
'I want to see her with you, not on computer but infront of me. I want to see you both happy.' She said and wiped her tears.
'Ammi please, aap samajhne ki. . . . .'He was going to say when she said.
'Tum ghar per nahi aana chahte mat ao per Bhopal to asakte ho na ? Tum jahan kahoge mein tum dono se milne ajaungi. Kitne saal hogaye hain tumse miley. Ab to ajao Asad.(You don't want to come home but you can come to Bhopal ? Wherever you will say I will come to meet you.)' She said.
'Theek hai, jesi aapki merzi. Mein aaraha hoon India aapko aapki bahu se milwane.(Ok as you wish. I am coming to India with her to meet you.)' He said finally.
'Thank You so much beta. Mein tumhare liye bohat khush hoon.' She said happily.
-----------------------------------
He was still confused what he should do ? He didn't ask zoya and told his decision to Dilshad. He thought he should ask her now. He called her.
'Ciao Zoya.' He said.
'Ciao. How was your day ?' She asked him.
'It was good. Did you talk to your father ?' He asked her back.
'Yes I did. He is happy that I am marrying a Indian. Now tell me when are we getting married ?' She said while smiling.
'Actually my Ami wants to meet you. I tried to convince her but she was crying and I said that I am coming to India. I didn't even ask you. . . .' He was confused what should he say.
'Allah Miyaan ! What's wrong with you Asad. If she is saying then definately we are going to meet her.' She said.
'Ya but you told me you don't like going to India because of your father.' He said.
'Ya, but that doesn't mean I will never go there. I mean its fine. I am coming with you. We are going to India for sure.' She said making a decision. He was happy that she is fine with his decision.
