PART 3 :It was now dawn, Asad kept caressing Zoya's hair throughout the night, fearing that if he sleeps, she would be gone by the morning, a beautiful dream which would break and he wouldn't be able to bear that, losing her after winning her, he couldnt afford losing somebody he loves anymore... Unknowingly, his grip around her tightened, bringing her closer to him, resting his chin on her head, she was his light in his darkness, his angel in his bad times, she made him smile whenever he was sad or upset... She was now his everything... Son ame soeur... ("His soulmate...")
Stiring, Zoya felt warmness all around her, she could smell this familiar scent, the scent she could never forget, the scent she could recognize amongst thousands, her Mr. Khan's scent, she smiled to herself and encircled her arms around his waist tightly, resting her head against his broad chest, she could feel his hands in her hair, she sighed in contentment. Asad kissed the top of her head and smiled.
"Sorry... Did i woke you up ?" Asad asked softly and she nodded, "Go back to sleep, it's just dawn, i won't disturb you...", he said softly against her head a bit guilty for disturbing her unintentionally because of his selfishness, but he was unaware of the smile Zoya had against his chest, she shook her head and looked up at him smiling, Asad was confused at her expressions.
"After ages i slept this peacefuly ! Et tout ca, grace a vous ("And all this, thanks to you..."), you are my shield... I felt as if cocon away from all bad memories, as if protected, complete..." Zoya said almost crying, while smiling at him.
Asad kissed her forehead, looking deep into her eyes, not guilty anymore but delighted to make her happy, to relax her, to ease her... He caressed her hair as if putting her back to sleep and Zoya put her head against his chest.
"You didn't sleep, why ?" Zoya asked innocently without looking up at him, while he looked at her, shocked, she smiled guessing his expression, "Mr. Khan, i know you since more than three years, i can tell by now, what you do, how you do, etc. But i have an idea to why you didn't sleep, am i right ? Do you think that it's all a dream ? Let me tell you that it's not... I'm with you and will always be, you don't need to feel insecure, i'm here, with you, always..." Zoya by now had looked up at him and had cupped his face into her hands, her forehead agaist his, finishing in a whisper.
"I'm scared, Zoya... I-I am scared losing you, i feel it too good to be true... What if i wake up and realise that it was only the most beautiful dream of my life, i wont be able to bear it, Zoya... Losing again somebody i love... I-I cant... No..." Asad was cut off by Zoya's lips on his, she kissed him, it was a kiss of reassurance, of love, a promise, to be there, for each other, in between the kiss, she pinched his arm hard and she broke the kiss.
"You are not dreaming, i'm here, with you, always... Believe me or i will pinch you harder !" Zoya said with her eyes full of mischieve.
Asad just couldnt hold back, he just laughed freely, whole-heartedly ! It wasnt Mr. Asad Ahmed Khan laughing, it was an eight years old little Asad who laughed, his laugh echoed in the flat, making Zoya grin, grin and just grin, she never saw her Mr. Khan laughing, that too so freely, his laugh was melody to her ears, she knew that she would never get enough of his laughter, he was looking like a pure child.
"Sleep, Mr. Khan. You need rest because i'm taking you somewhere out this afternoon. But for now sleep, dont worry, i'm not going anywhere..." Zoya said ever so softly as if talking to a baby, a handsome grown-up man, her man.
Asad stared at her beautiful face, then gave up, he was tired, not in a mood to argue, needed rest, he closed his eyes and rested his head on her shoulder, in her neck while hugging her by her waist, now it was her turn to pass her hand through his hair, caressing them, she even heard and felt a sigh against her neck, she just smiled. Both got into a peaceful slumber once again.
It was now afternoon, it was 3 pm, but still both were sleeping. Asad was feeling for the first time after ages, loved and coconed, Zoya was his everything, his love, his best friend and right now her behaviour towards him was like a mother. Since he was eight, Asad never got to sleep in his mother's lap, he was too busy and she was ill. Today, having someone like that was overwhelming for Asad, he had now somebody to call his. While Zoya had the peacefulness she never had before, having lost her parents at a young age, she never felt a motherly love even though her Zeenat Aapi brought her up like a mother, she could never replace their mother, but right now, in Asad's embrace, she could feel this love, this protection that babies have when they are with their mothers, and she could never get enough of this touch, this embrace, of her Asad.
Finally, they woke up but they were still lazying on the bed, not wanting to break this embrace.
"I slept like a baby... I didnt slept like this since ages... You made me forget about this cruel outside world..." Asad said while caressing her cheeks and then he kissed her forehead, Zoya closed her eyes and smiled then it was her turn, she kissed his forehead.
"Same things for me, you block all my bad memories, i feel protected in your arms..." Zoya said caressing his stubbled cheek. "Ok now, get up, i want to take you somewhere !" Zoya said excitedly, he asked her where, but she didnt told him.
Zoya got ready in a beautiful white salwar suit, and Asad wore a casual shirt and black pants from his flat which was next to hers. When Asad saw her, he was mesmerized, she was looking even more beautiful in traditional attire, even Zoya was impressed at Asad's looks since she never saw him in casuals.
"Looking beautiful, Masha Allah !" Asad said smiling while taking her hands in his and entwining their fingers, she smiled and blushed, suddenly she felt very shy.
"You are looking no less, Mr. Khan !" She said trying to suppress her blush.
Both of them grabbed had a very late breakfast, then they both grabbed their coats and went out hand-in hand. When they got out, they saw a lot of chaos, everything was upside down, all the rubbish was out of the government's bins, some cars were burnt, Zoya got closer to Asad, fearing as if yet again she was in the metro and she was in danger. Asad put his arm around Zoya's shoulder reassuringly and whispered, "Dont worry, i'm there... Come on, let's go..." Both started to walk, soon they reached their destination, the graveyard.
Zoya put her dupatta on her head and took Asad to three graves, which were all next to each other. "Mr. Khan, meet my father Ghaffur Farooqui, my mother Zainab Farouqui and the last but not the least my Zeenat Aapi..." Asad and Zoya sat on the ground accross the graves, Asad smiled sadly. "Hey my lovely family ! I want you guys to meet my fiance, Mr. Asad Ahmed Khan !" Zoya kept talking to them while Asad was looking at Zoya sadly, at the end, Zoya whispered, "I miss you guys... But dont worry about me, i'm not alone anymore, i have my Mr. Khan with me, he's a very nice guy, he will take care of me..." Asad smiled sadly once again, then both of them prayed for their family, Asad prayed for Zoya's parents and his Ammi while Zoya prayed for Asad's Ammi and her own family. After sometime, both exited the graveyard.
"Are you ok ?" Asad asked softly putting his arm around her, she nodded and smiled.
"Now let's go somewhere, i wont tell you where or else you wouldn't want to go there !" Zoya in a bubbly tone and he smiled.
The sun was starting to get away, the sky was now orange-rosy. Both went towards Le Pont des Arts, also called in English : the lovers' bridge where couples lock a lock on this very bridge with their name on it.
Both got on the bridge and Asad smiled at Zoya who was all excited to lock a lock on their names.
"You might find this to be stupid, but i find this to be cute and romantic ! So no matter what, i'm going to lock a lock on our names ! I always dreamt about being on this bridge and locking a lock with the person i love..." Zoya said determinedly and continued softly, while taking a lock out of her coat's pocket, Asad smiled.
Asad took out a marker pen from his coat and took the lock from her hands and wrote their names.
"Asad
+
Zoya
=
<3"
Asad showed her and she grinned. "That's what you wanted to write, right ?" He asked and she nodded happily, both locked their lock together on the bridge.
"Forever together ?" Zoya asked innocently taking her hand in his, entwining their fingers.
"Forever together !" Asad smiled and encircled his arm around her shoulder, kissing her forehead, she put her head on his chest and encircled her arm around his waist sideways, they both started to walk away, together, no matter where they went, they were going together... It was their ISHQ IN PARIS...
THE END !
