CHAPTER 3

Dilshad constructions:
Asad was busy with some work when Ayaan and Haider entered
Ayaan: bhai, I had a word with Mr.Kapoor, I think we should consider it, that joint venture seems quite beneficial
Asad: I had gone through the details everything is in our favor, I have noticed one thing their firm has just developed so more than this project they are more interested in collaborating with us! Well, that's fine it's their strategy also they are hardworking I don't mind giving them exposure. Haider explain them all the T&Cs of DC and make sure all the protocols are followed
Haider: sure I will mail them the details and will personally coordinate with them
Asad: cool
Haider: one more thing, we have three conference calls lined up for today
Asad: ok fine...wait! Today? No, not possible at all
Ayaan: Bhai, it was decided a week ago and you had told us to schedule it today
Asad: yeah, but I have some important work so you both manage it for today or else postpone it
Haider: we have to postpone it to tomorrow because it cannot be done without you
Asad(casually reading the file): ok then postpone it
After sometime Asad kept back the file but then suddenly taken aback seeing Ayaan and Haider starring at him
Asad: you both are still here and why you both starring like this!
Ayaan: what's wrong with you bhai
Haider: which kind of work is that which is more important than your conference call
Asad: guys, it's personal
Ayaan: I'm your brother
Haider: I'm your best friend
Ayaan/Haider: NO SECRETS!
Asad knew they won't leave him until he won't tell them the whole thing Asad signed and told them everything which had occurred from that flash mob till today morning. Haider was very excited and happy that Asad finally found a better half even Ayaan was initially happy but then after knowing that the girl is blind he was a bit worried for his brother but for the time hid it as he didn't want to ruin the moment so taught to talk to him at evening.

Small girl looked down blushing at the compliment
Another kid: Rhea oh ya tia! How can you tallk to my di like thesh! She is the best teachel(Rhea oh ya tia! How can you talk to my di like this! She is the best teacher)
Zoya: Suhana no fighting sweetheart! Powerpuff girls never fights with each other right

Rhea: but how come youl eyes is oval there and my eyes is oval here(but how come your eyes is over there and my eyes is over here)
For a minute Zoya was not knowing how to answer her innocent question, her thought was interrupted by a voice.
Humeira: because she has beautiful eyes and I liked it so much and since she is my elder sister she gave it to me so this is her real eyes(pointing to her own eyes) so you don't worry dear you can show your steps
Little girl convinced with a story happily went to her place
Zoya: again u handled humi...i...
Humeira: it doesn't mean I forgave you for leaving me alone at home and coming here
Zoya: humi, you were sleeping dear
Humeira: I was just sleeping was not in coma that you can't wake me
Zoya(sternly): never say that again!
Humeira(hearing her tone): sorry, but what you did was also not right
Zoya(huffed): even I'm sorry! Happy?
Humeira: it won't happen again right?
Zoya: right
Humeira smiled and hugged her both of them were above to continue with the practice but before that Zoya double clicked the clock icon on her cell and the voice came
Voice: 1 pm
Zoya(under her breath): 45 mins to go!
Humeira: di, every 20 mins you are checking the time, everything alright?
Zoya(smiling awkwardly): yeah absolutely, just that...I am little tired today, so I was checking time left to wrap up
Humeira: oh...k
2 pm outside the academy:
Asad reached the academy to pick her up he was searching for her
Asad thinking, "did she forget about the lunch"
But then soon he found her on the same bench where he saw her last night her eyes were glued to the entrance waiting for someone and he feeling so happy that someone is him only that stick of her is an indication that she is blind. Asad silently went and sat beside her
Asad: waiting for someone?
Zoya(pouting): yeah actually...(suddenly she recognized his voice)
Zoya: Allah miya what's wrong with you Asad! Here I am waiting for you and you are fooling around
Asad just had a small laugh
Zoya: why are you laughing?
Asad: it's a first time some girl waiting for me apart from my ammi
Zoya(covering up): I was not waiting for you...im just hungry
Asad: ok let's go then
They were walking towards the parking
Zoya(annoyed): tell me what took you so long!
Asad: you said to come by 2 pm and it's exactly 2 pm
Zoya(fumbled with the words): vo...vo...what you think ha you are the perfectionist!
Asad: I don't think like that, I know I'm perfect
Zoya: really?? Then back to earth Mr.Khan, because I told you that my batch will be over by 1:45, which means you were supposed to be here by 1:45
Asad: basically you are annoyed because you were missing me
Zoya: yes!(suddenly she realized her words and covered up saying) I mean...I was missing but not you I was missing my lunch you have no idea how much I am starving, it has been 2hrs since I ate something, if you would have reached here by 1:45 then by now we would have been relishing our food but now it will take another 15mins to reach there and I have to starve till then
Asad smirked at her attempt of covering up
Asad(amused): at least stop to breath, ok it's my fault
Zoya: yeah right!
Asad(teasingly): so will you able make it till restaurant! I mean 2hrs without eating
Zoya: I know... what? are you pulling my leg?
Asad(controlling his laugh): not at all!
Zoya: I am not coming anywhere with you!(turned back towards her academy)
Asad: hey, where you going? I was just kidding!
Zoya(giggling): when was I serious
Asad: you are a drama queen
Zoya: a proud one!
With that they seated on the car, Zoya was struggling with the seat belt as she was not getting the holder
Asad removed his seatbelt and leaned towards her side she could feel his face closer suddenly small blush crept Zoya's face, he pulled the seatbelt accidently touching her shoulder sending butterflies in her tummy and locked the belt
Asad: its done
Zoya signed in relief and Asad smiled seeing his effect on her
Zoya: I would have managed
Asad: nobody in this world can manage everything alone, we all need someone, you are not an exception(looking intently at her) I have realized this thing sometime before
Zoya thinking,"why is he always raising my heartbeat with his words, but seriously I hate Ms. Dinchak now I trusted her so much, how could she fill my mind against him like that"
Asad: so where should we head to, btw I had seen one restaurant on the way. It seems good we can try there
Zoya: on your way? That means you must have seen restaurant "DELICIOUS" its good and classy but I have better place in my mind, just go straight and take the second right
Asad: ok(with that Asad started his car engine)
Zoya was gazing blankly at the window when some small breeze soothed her face, Asad had opened the car window as he saw her staring at window's direction, she cannot see things but she can feel it. Zoya was overwhelmed by his gesture apart from her family which includes only her sister and father, no one attempted to understand her so well. She was about to tell him about the windows but stopped thinking he won't be comfortable as he is used to been in AC but then he understood her silence. She smiled at him, enjoying the breeze
Asad thinking," someday she will kill me with this million dollar smile"
Asad: Zoya its been 5mins since I'm driving forget 2nd right I can't even find the 1st right
Zoya: you are so impatient Asad within 2mins 1st right will come and then 2nd right is 3mins away from there
Asad: wow! Is that your mind or some kind of calculator
Zoya: I keep this small small thing in mind so that it helps me in future like my last visit helped me today
Asad: I'm impressed
Zoya just smiled proudly at his compliment
Asad: but I can't find any restaurant in my GPS?
Zoya: you just follow my direction don't worry you won't get lost I'm there na
Asad: that's a relief
Zoya(giggling): that you won't get lost
Asad: no that you are there(immediately changing his words) I mean you know the directions
Zoya gazed out of the window to hide blush
Soon Asad halted the car after 2nd right
Asad: now?
Zoya: now what, get out of the car
With that, she got out of her car with her stick followed by Asad who was glancing around the place looking for restaurant
Asad: where is the restaurant?
Zoya: over there(pointing towards the front direction)
Asad: Zoya that's a garden
Zoya: exactly! We are having our lunch there
Asad: what! Are you planning to eat grass and flowers over there?
Zoya: no, if we will eat their food what would that poor rabbits do
Asad: unbelievable!
Zoya: calm down Asad! Look I have tiffins with me so instead of having outside food trapped in a room we can have homemade food under fresh air over here
Asad was above to speak when Zoya interrupted
Zoya: don't worry, have enough food for both of us actually today my sister came half day to the academy i.e. after lunch and I like a fool packed her lunch also with mine so we have enough food don't worry and also I am a good cook trust me your stomach won't get upset now lets go
Asad: you are always this non-stop or today is some special occasion
Zoya: well I can make one occasion for your haters tomorrow's headline by Ms. Dinchak "Arrogant ruler of business world AAK was killed by a starving blind girl according to the source AAK was not letting her have lunch and was continuously bombarding with questions we are trying to contact their closed ones till then keep watching E24"
Asad: I'm scared!
Zoya: shall we?
Asad: after you
With that they went inside the garden, Zoya removed her sandals and comfortably sat down on the grass and Asad was just standing there like a fool not knowing what to do
Zoya: where are you Asad?
Asad: I'm here only!
Hearing Asad's voice from upward direction
Zoya: you are still standing common sit down make yourself comfortable
Asad sat there looking at the surrounding awkwardly he didn't expect this surprise picnic at all, he is not at all use to it even if his family plans some outdoor event making some or the other excuse he save himself. Zoya extended one tiffin to him he took it from her. Zoya had already started eating comfortably as if she is in her dining, Asad tasted one morsel he was actually relishing the taste it so delicious
Asad: delicious!
Zoya: you are still stuck in that restaurant!(sadly) you are not liking here?
Asad: no, I meant the food is delicious
Zoya: oh! Did U like it?
Asad: it's awesome
Zoya: thank you! Even my abbu loves my cooking once I had prepared...(went on and on with her story)
Asad again started with his drooling session suddenly there was a sparkle in her eyes when he complimented her cooking
Asad thinking, " she is so innocent it's so easy to make her happy her simplicity not having any girly tantrums so simple, so beautiful, so grounded how can one person can have so many qualities. The person who will get that golden heart of her will be the luckiest person alive I just hope I am that one but do I really deserve this angel in my life. I don't know if I am selfish but I want her badly in my life"
Asad: I LOVE YOU ZOYA!
Zoya was not at all expecting this she choked her food hearing him and started coughing, Asad immediately handed her the water bottle
Asad(worried): are you ok? Have some water!
Zoya drank some water which relaxed her the bit
Zoya(horrified): what you said?
Asad: vo actually...
Zoya: you said something else
Asad signed thinking,"why this girl is hell bend in making it more difficult for me"
Asad: i...I love you
Zoya(nervously laughing): it's a joke right?
Asad: I was never this serious about anything before
There was an awkward silence between them one was totally confused with her feeling and was having no idea what to say and other was totally nervous as his life depends on her answer

It really means a lot, and a big apology for such a late update was busy with exams, house function, and all other mess. Do let me know how you liked it part will be eagerly waiting for your reviews
