Hello all i know its been a veryy long tym since the last update
So here goes the next update. I can now relate to how difficult it becomes for the writer to write an update after a gap of so much tym.
Two days later...
In the outskirts of Bhopal, in a small area stood a queue of women fighting for their chance to take water from the common tap. Amongst the women stood a tired zoya, waiting mindlessly for her chance to fill the bucket of water. While zoya missed her Khan Mansion, her room, her phuphi, tamatar and most importantly her Mr. Khan. Zoya almost smiled after imagining about asad coming to this area and his OCD kicking in on seeing the area. But her smile faded, realizing that her imaginations could never come true. How could they afterall, how could asad come there if she had not left a single clue of where she had shifted to.
On the other side of Bhopal, a panic stricken asad entered the police station making every effort to find his Musibat Magnet. Where was she? How was she? Eager to have a glimpse of her. But all his efforts were in vain. But he was determined to find her anyhow, he drove mindlessly towards the outskirts of Bhopal, disappointed by his life for taking his sunshine away. He recollected the sequence of events from the past two days in which tanveer tried her best to woo him. She had changed... was it the change zoya was trying to tell him about or else how could tanveer's behaviour change overnight. He would find out but for now his only priority was his zoya.
Zoya finally after successful in filling the buckets tried carrying the buckets to her room which was lead by a staircase. Halfway through the staircase, she stopped, unable to carry the heavy buckets. Would Mr. Khan be able to see her in this state? She thought. She was brought out of her reverie by a middle aged woman asking her to move aside. The woman noticed zoya struggling with the buckets and offered to help her. On reaching till zoya's room, the woman introduced herself as Shehnaz Bi. Zoya instantly felt comfortable in her presence, again remembering about the vibes she got from her phoopi. Shehnaz bi was her neighbour and on conversing with her she came to know that Shehnaz Bi was a single mother with a son and a daughter almost Zoya's age. She noticed that zoya's room was comparatively smaller than her two room house. It had no furniture's except a small torn mattress and a kitchen which looked empty without any vessels making shehnaz bi wonder what had lead such a sweet girl to live alone in such conditions.
She questioned zoya on the same although wary of the fact if zoya would feel bad about her trying to enter into her personal space when they hardly knew each other. Zoya as if sensing her hesitation, told her about the sequence of events since her arrival in khan mansion. Surprised by her own connection to the woman in front of her who she had met a few hours back but seemed as family member just like her phuphi. Shehnaz bi felt pity for zoya and prayed for the innocent girl's happiness. She asked zoya "But beta you seem to be from a financially stable family, then why are you staying here". Zoya smiled although it didnt reach her eyes, she told bi about how she had lost all her savings in searching for her abu and now she didnt want to burden her aapi and jiju with her responsibilities and therefore chose to stay here. Shehnaz bi blessed zoya and invited her for lunch.
While asad was still mindlessly driving when he noticed a young boy on the road he was injured and asking for a lift. Asad offered him lift. After sitting in the car, asad came to know that the boy's name was Akram. Akram lived with his sister and mother in a chawl in the outskirts of Bhopal. He was walking on the road when he slipped in a pothole and was injured. Asad felt relieved to have someone as company, but still his mind focussed on one person. Was she alright??
Okay okay tomatoes are welcomei know it was pure rubbish, but that is all i could manage.
