Zoya and Ayaan, or best known as Zoyaan. They were the most famous couple of school. While Ayaan was the best soccer player, Zoya was the best student and the most popular too. So it was totally normal that they would be a couple.
Asad on the other hand was the best friend. In fact he was Zoya's best friend since kindergarten. He was also a good student but he was deep in love with this dimpled girl, already known as untouchable.
It was 8.00 p.m. So that meant that it was time for his reunion with Zoya. In fact, as she was the popular one and he was the 'loser' one, they didn't hang out like they used to.
"Again?" Rashid asked on seeing his son ready to leave.
"Yes."
"But when will you realize that Zoya isn't the same little girl any more. She's not the one for you, not any more.." Dilshad said caressing her son's cheek.
"Explain it to my heart ammi.." Asad said and left.
His house and Zoya's were just three houses away. Asad arrived quickly and climbed to her window to surprise her. But when he reached her window, she was talking on the phone.
"I know that you've already told me Ayaan." She said.
"Yes I know that he's not like us..But..You've already told me that he's a jerk and I know it okay! Now stop it.."
"No I don't want us to break up. I love you."
"Okay I won't hang out with Asad any more.."
It was enough for Asad. He got down and when he was going to leave, Zeenat, Zoya's sister was going out with her father Safdar Farooqui.
"Asad? Do you want to see Zoya?" Safdar asked. Asad was like a son to him and well he did prefer him more than Ayaan.
"No I don't want to see Zoya. I..Can you please give her this? And please just tell her that I understood." He said and he gave to Safdar a necklace which was hanging on his neck since he was ten. 
It was her first gift to him. He had given her an exact replica of this necklace as it was for both genders. And Safdar recognized it.
"Allah Hafiz." Asad said and went back home.
"Asad? You're back already!?" Dilshad said. Normally Asad and Zoya would spend at least an hour together.
"Ammi..I just want to go bed." He said and left to bed.
Next morning, Zoya was looking for Asad everywhere in the school but she didn't find him anywhere. They needed to talk. During the lunch break, she finally found him in the library. He was working for his chemistry exam.
"Chintu we need to talk." She said behind him but he ignored. "Chintu I'm talking to you!" She said. "Chintu!" He got up furious.
"I'm not your dog Zoya! I'm not the one who will stay and wait for you to give me some of your precious time!" He said a bit too loud.
"Please stay quiet you two." The librarian exclaimed.
"What do you mean?" She asked taken aback by his words.
"I'm done. I'm just done with your attitude. You can keep taking material things as the most important things in the world but I won't stay here waiting for you at 8.00 p.m. each day. I thought that our friendship ended yesterday but in reality this friendship never existed." He said and left.
Zoya saw him walking on her and didn't do anything to stop him. He was right after all. Instead she went back to Ayaan and did as if nothing happened.
She really broke down when she arrived home and locked herself in her favourite room. Her house was a huge mansion with many untouched rooms so she had the room where she slept and just next this room she had her sanctuary. It was basically a room which contained all the things she cherished and most of them were related to her best friend Asad. She collapsed in the middle of the room and cried.
"Asad!" She cried as she finally realized how cruel she had been to him, her best friend. She tried to call him, at least twenty times but he didn't pick up.
Asad had seen every call of Zoya and didn't pick any. He was way too broken to answer her calls. He concentrated on his final exams instead.
Next day, Zoya didn't dress up like she used too. Instead of the usual heels, she just wore flats ballets, instead of the shorts and the tee-shirt which looked way more like a crop top, she wore a long purple dress and instead of all the make up, she just wore the necklace. Her hair was braided on the side in a cute way.
"Zoya what is this?" Her 'friend' Tanveer said.
"What do you mean?" Zoya asked.
"You just seem so normal!" Tanveer replied.
"Oh because of my dress? Well deal with it. I'm done with this look!"
"What about Ayaan?" Tanveer argued.
"I don't care about him! What matters it's me!" Zoya said and left from there.
She looked for Asad but he wasn't there. But she was happy because she had biology and they would be next to each other. But Asad wasn't there once again.
Zoya had spent all day looking for Asad, thinking about him, but he didn't come this day.
"Zoya are you okay?" Ayaan said kissing her neck as they were sitting in her room.
"Yes Ayaan I'm okay.." She said and he tried to unbutton her shirt but she pushed him off of her.
"What are you doing?"
"Zoya we're 18 for f**k sake! I think it's time to let go!" Ayaan said and Zoya looked at him shocked.
"Please leave my house! If you're just here to get in my panties, leave. I'm not in the mood right now." Zoya said and opened the door for Ayaan to leave. He caressed her cheek.
"Someday you'll be mine."
A week later.
Asad had finally got the courage to go back in school. Zoya had sent him by mail every course he missed even though he didn't answered to her messages. When he saw her for the first time after their argument, he got the shock of his life on seeing her completely different. She smiled at him but he ignored her. His heart was bleeding and he still couldn't find the source of his pain, he didn't know it was for losing his best friend or for realising that it was an impossible love, they were now too different.
Zoya got hurt on seeing that he didn't even threw a glance at her, she couldn't know if the pain she felt was only because she lost her best friend or because she lost something way more important.
After school, Zoya was going to Ayaan for him to drive her home but she got the shock of her life on seeing him making out with Humeira, one of her classmates but she didn't care about it. This scene just made her realize something. Zoya ran to a park near her house. She sat on the swinger and started swinging herself. It was the place of their first encounter.
Flashback.
Zoya was swinging herself next a little boy when he fell down on the floor. So she stopped swinging her self and got down to help him. He was crying.
"Are you okay?" She asked taking a peek at his knee to see that it was bit red. He nodded his head no and she blew on his knee before kissing it.
"Ammi said that it's a magic kiss which allows the wounds to heal quickly!" She exclaimed and Asad smiled at her.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Zoya."
"I'm Asad."
End of flashblack.
It was beginning to get dark, and it was also raining so she left this place full of memories to go writing new memories. When she arrived at his doorstep, she was dripping cold. She knocked on the door, while tears were streaming down her face. Asad was alone at home as it was the Friday and his parents were out to some relatives' house along with his baby sister Najma. He opened his door and was shocked to see Zoya in such a depriving state.
"Zoya? What do you want?" He asked.
"You." She said and locked their lips in a warm kiss. Asad kissed back but then, he suddenly pulled off.
"What happened?" He asked.
"He cheated but I don't care. All this week I was only thinking about you. During all this time it was you and only you, my best friend, my first love, my first kiss..."
Flashblack.
It was a rainy day when Asad and Zoya had stayed at her home, all alone. They were watching 'The Notebook' when all of sudden there was a thunderbolt. Zoya who feared them jumped into his arms and Asad hugged her. When it was over, they realized that their faces were just few millimetres from each other, and, closing their eyes, they closed the distance and kissed.
End of flashblack.
"Few days ago you were saying that I was a jerk! Laughing at me with your beloved Ayaan!" He protested.
"Few days ago I was blind! Few days ago I refused to see my love for you. Few days ago I thought that to be important, I had to be popular. But today I realized that I only wanted to be important for you and only for you..Please, take back your necklace..Please.." She said hugging him while she cried on his shoulder.
"Zoya.. I.. I don't know..I do love you but.."
"Maaf kardo.." She said falling on her knees, pleading him for forgiveness and Asad finally listened to his heart and knelt in front of her. He cupped her cheeks and kissed Zoya on her lips. It seems like he wanted to suck every drop of her love from her lips. What happened this night stayed between the two. What I can say is that Asad became her first lover too.
Monday morning.
Asad went to pick up Zoya and they walked to school hand in hand. When she came back home on Saturday, Safdar, Zeenat and Rani Farooqui knew that something changed in their little Zoya. She was radiant. True, they shouted at her for not coming back home but when she said "I was enjoying a film night with Chintu." The knew that Chintu and Bounty were on the road again.
On arriving at school, Asad had been pushed by Ayaan and he fell on the ground.
"What are you doing with my girlfriend? She's mine got it!" Ayaan said and he was going to punch Asad but Zoya stopped him.
"Don't touch my boyfriend. You and I are over. I am with Asad and you have to accept it."
"No one leaves Ayaan! No one!" He said.
"It seems like I'm no one then! And if you truly wanted me, you wouldn't have cheated on me with Humeira! Do you believe that I'm blind or what?" Zoya said and extended her hand to Asad.
"Come with me Chintu." She said and Asad took her hand and they left to this corner behind the school.
"I love you Asad. No one will come between us. I promise." She said kissing him.
"I love you Zoya. You're the best thing that happened to me." He answered and they hugged. 15 years ago, she didn't only find a best friend in Asad, she also found a companion for life..
