Part 4
I am sorry for posting so late but my exams were going on. Enjoy!
They Helped Dilshad to the table. Everyone ate their dinner in silence. After Dilshad and Najma had gone to bed, Asad decided to go over his lines once and then portray them to Zoya.
He went up to Zoya's room and knocked. Zoya opened the door and was surprised to see Asad there. He bent down on his knees and recited his poem. In the end he added, "Do you love me Zoya?"
He said it loudly enough for Najma to hear. She wanted her Ammi to see this so she started recording them. Asad wasn't aware and nor was Zoya.
"Wow Mr. Khan, I'm impressed. I never knew you were so romantic." stated Zoya.
"Can you please answer my question Ms. Farooqi?" said Asad, irritated.
"Yes Mr. Khan, I love you. Mujhe aap qubool hai!" she exclaimed.
Asad got up and hugged Zoya (mitwa in bg). Najma started clapping. Asad did not pay any heed, but after he was done, he pulled Najma's ear.
"Tamatar? You have been very interested in my life these days. So what, I've just admitted my feelings." he teased, not yet aware that she had recorded everything.
"That was very cute Bhaijaan and Ammi ought to see it. So does Ayan Bhaijaan." said Najma and ran to Dilshads room. Asad and Zoya chased her. Dilshad was lost in her own thoughts when Najma entered.
"Ammi, look at this!" Najma bellowed.
"Tamatar, quiet." Asad said sternly.
Najma became quiet. She was yet scared of her Bhaijaan.
"What do you want to show me Najma? Asad let her." said Dilshad, she knew that Asad wouldn't say no to her.
Najma played the video while Asad and Zoya blushed. Dilshad couldn't control her laughter. Her Asad, her angry and stern Asad had fallen in love with the girl he hated until yesterday.
"Asad? Now will I always see this romantic and fun side of you? Thank you Zoya for removing my son from the shell he had put himself in. Come here you too." Dilshad hugged them both. Najma too joined in. Zoya was elated. She had found her family, a family that she could name her own. She did not mind getting married to Asad, she could go on with her mission and he would help her too.
"I think we should all get some sleep now." said Dilshad with a yawn.
They went to their respected rooms and slept soundly. Asad and Zoya finally got some sleep as their minds were lighter.
Next morning, Zoya called her Jiju.
"Assalamualaikum Jiju!" she greeted.
" Walaikumasalaam! How are you?" He asked.
"I am fine. I have a sher for you" said Zoya.
"Go on." he was used her early morning shers.
"Arz kiya hai, zindagi hai pencil, kismat hai rubber,
I have called to give a good khabar!" she recited.
" Waah Waah! What's the good khabar? Did you find your abu?" he inquired.
"No, not yet anyway. I have a bigger surprise.I am sure Appi will be very happy. You guys just fly down to India as soon as possible." she told him.
"Okay we will come, but at least tell us why. You speak to your Appi." said Anwar, he knew that Zeenat could handle Zoya well.
"Hey Appi! You have to come down to Bhopal anyhow." Zoya instructed.
"Zoe, Anwar is saying that you haven't yet found your Abu, so why are you so excited? Why do we have to come to Bhopal?" asked Zeenat.
"The only him I can give you is that I found my family, but not my Abu. There is no trace of him." informed Zoya, disappointed.
"Okay we will come. Anwar will try and get tickets for tommorow's flight." Zeenat assured, she too was curious about what was going on.
"Thanks Appi! Allahfiz!" Zoya was delighted that her Appi was coming.
Asad had heard her conversation. He was confused. She was looking for her Abu?
"I have found my family but not my Abu? What was that all about? Are you looking for your Abu?" Asad threw questions at her.
"Uh, um, yes?" she stammered.
"Zoya, tell me everything. I assure you that I can help you." Asad said in his usual stern voice.
Zoya say down, " Mr. Khan my Ammi was burnt when I was 3. My abu left me in my cousins hands. My abu just left me Mr. Khan." said a weeping Zoya.
"Why didn't you tell me before? I would have helped in all ways." he said in a concerned voice.
Zoya rested her head on his chest.
" You two love birds don't even spare each other in the morning," teased Dilshad, "Zoya, what have you done to my son?"
"I haven't done anything yet phuphi, but I have to make Akdu Ahmed Khan into Asad Ahmed Khan." she replied.
Precap: "I know this is my mission 2." said Zoya absentmindedly.
"Mission 2? What's mission 1?" asked Dilshad, befuddled.
Sorry for any mistakes, I have updated this from my phone.
