Part One
Royal Palm premises, 7th Floor, Head Office of the weekly Magazine "NEWSWEEK"
Ms. Zoya Farooqui, The Managing Editor of the Newsweek entered into the cabin of Mr. Ashutosh Kapoor, The Editor -In -Chief of the Newsweek.
Good Morning Mr. Kapoor, u called me, Zoya asked with a smile
Yes Zoya, have a seat, Mr. Kapoor said while placing the file on the desk. Actually I want to discuss one important topic but before that tell me how the meeting was & what the progress of the Assignment is.
The meeting was good Mr. kapoor. Our team is working so well & the assignment get completed till Thursday, then I will make sure if any further editing is required & It will all ready on Friday for your approval, her each word was oozing with confidence.
Well, that's nice, I know I can rely on you in that matter, so there is another task I want u to complete...rather I say I can only rely on u in that matter, Mr. Kapoor said leaning back in his chair.
Sure Mr. kapoor, zoya said smiling.
U knows the awards in the field of Architecture declared yesterday, & luckily we have got the appointment of the two winners for interview. So I wish u to conduct one of the interviews. That man was not as social & known as very arrogant, we had only half an hour & I don't want any mistake to happen that he cut short that time also. I want you handle this interview of The Spectrum Young Enthused Architect Of The year Award winner Asad Ahmad Khan.
Asad Ahmad Khan...Mr. Kapoor said that name & Zoya felt her heart stop at that moment. The last sentence started ringing in her mind... I want you handle this interview of The Spectrum Young Enthused Architect Of The year Award winner Asad Ahmad Khan... She felt her head spinning, she didn't hear any word after that...
So zoya I have a meeting scheduled with the publishers, we will discuss the details later, Mr. Kapoor said closing his laptop on the desk but didn't get any reply from Zoya, he again called her name but she seemed lost somewhere. What happen Zoya, are u alright? Mr. Kapoor asked walking towards her placing his hand on her shoulder.
Um...ye...yes Mr. kapoor I m fine, I will see you later she managed to said & left the cabin.
Walking back to her cabin she shut the door & leaned back closing her eyes. She couldn't think anything at that moment. How can I face him?? After that fateful day how can I face him now?? She thought walking towards her chair. Leaning back on the chair she shut her eyes tightly to calm down her increasing heartbeats. Moments later she opens her eyes, taking a long breath she unlocked the right drawer of the desk. Picking up the blue diary she closed the drawer. One photo was there in that dairy, she stared at that photo sometime with teary eyes & again shutting her eyes she leaned back holding a photo tightly to her heart...Allah Miya how can I face him after so many years, no..I can't do it...how he will react...I will refuse for this interview...yes I will talk to Mr. Kapoor...But...she mumbled to herself feeling helpless...
She accepted every challenge in her life, she was not the girl who refused to do any job, how can she said no to Mr. Kapoor, what excuse she could give...but again this was not any challenge, this was her past...she don't want to face...Allah Miya please help me in this...she prayed & remembered that day...
Flashback...
Zoya how can u said that, you are lying na...or this is one of your prank?? Please Zoya said it is not true...Asad pleaded her with teary eyes.
No Asad I m not lying, I don't love u, never I said u that, so how can u claim my simple friendship as Love, I have a career ahead & I don't want to engage in any relationship at this point which can become a hurdle in my success, you also had your dreams, your career so just focus on that Asad.
Zoya I know we have had our dreams but I don't want to lost you for that, I want u by my side in my every success...how can my zoya said this bitter words, it's just a prank na...bolo na Zoya, Asad said holding her hands, tears were running down on his cheeks.
Leave me Asad, don't be emotional, u can't achieve anything in this world being so emotional, be a practical & rule the world, you can...but Zoya I can't live without you he said cutting her words. Ohh come on Asad you are sounding crazy now, when you will explore the world you comes to know that how crazy you were...you could get your best Asad...She turned facing her back to him, All the best for your future...saying so she left from their leaving a heartbroken Asad behind...
So you think Zoya being career oriented girl said that all bitter words to Asad...
Well, that day everything changed in Zoya's life...
She was so happy that day, she finally have got her Degree in Journalism & Mass Communication...she wants to share that news with her Abbu who had been in Mumbai for some business that time, so she dialed his number & got the worst news of her life...
Her father was hospitalized coz of paralysis attack. He had lost everything in business. Zoya got numb after hearing this, after her Ammi's demise her Abbu was there for them only, she don't understand what to do at that moment, but she even can't sit & think at that moment so she decided to go to Mumbai with her sister & brother. Asad was not in the city that time. Before the day she left for Mumbai Asad came back to give her the news that he got selected for M. Arch. Program & wished to get engaged to her before he left for three years.
Zoya was very well aware of how much he loved her, now she had the responsibility of her father & her younger siblings. She knows that he could do anything for her, but she doesn't want that he suffer because of her & give up his dreams. So she didn't think twice before pushed him away from her but she only knows that how badly she stabbed her own heart by saying that bitter words to him.
After left Bhopal she joined as a reporter in a news channel. But fate was not in her favor that time, after one month she lost her father, but she didn't have the time for sit & cry on the situation, she had to be stood strong for her siblings. She accepted every challenge which life throws at her. She was a hard working & strong girl. After two years she joined NEWSWEEK & now she is there as a Managing Editor. Her baby sister got engaged a month before & her brother is still studying. She gave them all happiness & best she could give. But in all this, that guilt is always there in her heart, that void created by herself only couldn't be filled...she is all alone...
Mobile on her desk beeped & she came back to the present...It was Mr. Kapoor,
Hello Zoya, I want to inform that earlier the interview was scheduled for day after tomorrow in Mr. Khan's office but now there is slight change as he has to go for Delhi tomorrow afternoon. He will be there in our office tomorrow morning at 11.00 sharp. He waited for a moment, Zoya...are u there..? he asked not getting any response. y..yes Mr. Kappor, Zoya stammered. I am coming to the office till four, then we will discuss further. Saying so he cut the call...leaving Zoya shocked & helpless...
