Her heels echoed into the distance as her heartbeats matched her steps. She nodded at her driver who came running towards her and clutched the suitcase against him. He opened the car door allowing her to settle inside the car. Her eyes darted towards her phone,
"Welcome to India, Miss Farooqui!"
She removed her Ray Bans and stared out of the window as a smile played on her lips.
Asad anxiously tapped his foot waiting for his guest to arrive. He breathed out as he stood on the balcony and stared into the distant.
"The room looks good big bro!" Ayaan fell back onto the king size bed. "It feels good to see this room open after so long! I don't know why mumani fought with abbu to keep this room shut. If only she agreed sooner, this could have been my room!" He closed his eyes hearing his brother grumble outside. "Bro, she will come soon don't worry!" He jumped up and joined his brother outside. "She isn't going to arrive any sooner by looking at the roads like that" Asad elbowed Ayaan in the stomach before chasing him inside.
"This is all work related!" Asad clarified his feelings.
"When did I say this was heart related?" Ayaan shrugged his shoulders teasingly. Asad fisted his hands, Dilshad burst out laughing outside the door.
"What is happening here? Is she here?" Dilshad asked, Ayaan looked at Asad with a smirk. Everyone looked towards the balcony; Asad's eyes opened wide hearing a car.
"She's here!!"Ayaan jumped excitedly. He looked towards Asad, "Your business partner is here" Ayaan grinned. Asad coughed trying to regain his composure. He glanced at his mother before walking downstairs to greet his guest.
Zoya stepped out of the car and looked at the familiar white mansion. Vivid images of her past and present flashed before her eyes. She held the phone in front of her with her thumb brushing the same spot again and again,
"I'm here Simpleton!" Zoya walked towards the lawn. She has arrived but she hasn't reached her destination. She turned her back towards the mansion and wiped the lone tear escaping her eyes.
"Miss Farooqui, you're finally here!" She heard his voice. She turned on her heels instantly with a smile on her face. She was here. And she wanted revenge.
