chapter 13Zoya walked slowly behind asad, as they made their way inside the airport. Asad looked everywhere at the crowd avoiding zoya's teary eyes, which were pleading him to not let her go.but he choose to ignore her causing her to go all disheartened by his heartless behavior.
"Zoya thats the que, (pointing at the line near check in) go in show this boarding pass and keep bags for check ups and than chevk the flight and board in." He instruct her slowly and onr by one , confirming she understood everything he said. Zoya nodded her head after each pause he took to confirm and after finishing petite manual on safe flight he gets his hand to his side. Signalling her to go.
Zoya freezes on her foot her legs felt too heavy to move a step. She stood there a while pleading with her eyes to him to stop her , tell her that she can live with him. But he didn't say anything , he instead shoved his face to other side and instantly her eyes spilled tears wettung her chin. Zoya waited for a little longer untill his head turned for the announcement for check in passengers. Her hearts immediately accelerated with passing seconds as asad looked back to her and motioned his head to go. She stood there wearily looking at everyone passing by than back at asad her lips now started to sob harder and she started to nod her head in No. "Please" she begged. Spilling more water from her eye.
Asad inhaled sharply before looking at her with apology., "go zoya, you have to leave me" he says with fual meaning but poor girl thought he is talking about her distance with him for period, little did she knew he was determined to leave her forever.
Asad eyes locked with intense pain yet he managed to give a stern look, "i said go zoya. Now!" He shouted on her so loudly that zoya flinched on the spot and everyone passing by gave him some dirty looks which he easily ignored in that moment.
Taking, very slow steps zoya started to walk against asad towards the que he has pointed her earlier. She didn't turn her back to him and walked opposite to her feet watvhing asad's falling expression with every move she took. Her heart pleaded with allah to show some magic and make him say "don't go!" But nothing happened. Her ears went dry on the hope but no words fell from his lips only his eyes were something that were talking for now and she tried to decode it. Zoya felt her back hitting cold metal and she turned to found the barricader of metal asking her to enter for distance from him to her. She looked once more to asad with pleading eyes but he ddidn't said anything. Was loving her own husband is such a big crime ? she thought inwardly Crying more at the same thought. Her eyes went wide as her soul starts to break onseeing asad turning his back to her and with in a second he started to walk away. The world could surely haven't seen the breaking of zoya, but her heart made 1000 of noises shattering with million in pieces rewinding all the memories of him and her from start of her life.
Asad walkef few steps and stopped just before the pillar he quickly hided himself behind it watvhing her crying and walkimg towards security check up. He stayed there untill she completely got disappeared from his eyes. His eyes were red now and it was his heart time to accelerate and cry for her, with her.
With slow steps like a broken soul he started to walk to the exit crushing under the burden of his own soul.
He took his phone amidst and dialled dilshad's number." Hello dr." He said with respect which was rare for dilshad to hear and immediately she sticked her ear on phone with seriousness.
"Are you ok?" Its the first thing dilshad could make her self ask him.
Yes i am fine." He said flatly; "zoya has boarded the flight , can you please pick up her from airport shr will reach there at 7 in evening " he asked a little heaviness in his voice.
"Umh..yeah, sure i will. Give me her flight details. I will get her home with me." She added more knowing he would ask her to keep zoya with her till he returns.
"Ok.thanks" he ended the call without any tease any cocky remarks or grunt
"There is surely something wrong with my jammy boy" dilshad wonder , she never told him but he was a child to her. They shared tom and jerry love to be precise and he was her spoil jerry.
"What is happening to you James. You don't feel alright!" She whispered to herself softly.
Asad sat in his car and was about to start his car changing gear from neutral to one when he feel her silk duppata falling in his hand and instantly his eyes looks up to meet zoya who looks so etheral, so pure so happy. She is smiling at him with her raise brow and he simply nods with a smile. He lets his eyes soak tears and he raises his hand to put her duppata back over her shoulder but as he does she vanishes.
'Do pal ruka khwabo ka kaarwan
Or fir chaldiye tum kaha hum kaha' he sighs leaning against his leather seat.
Here, zoya passes the security and now with her small handbag she is walking to sit on bus which will take her to flight. Her legs continuously rebell against her and her eyes locks on floor wetting the white tiles. Just then she finds him clicking fingers near her face. She looks up and a broken smile appears on her lips. She finds him nodding his head in no and is pinching her chin with a smile . she feels her fingers below her eyes and cool fresh air hits her face instantly. When she opens them she finds herself alone standing under the roof. Her heart bleeds more.
"Do pal ki thi dilo ki dastan
Or fir chal diye tum kaha hum kaha"
Asad inhales again to calm himself and think straight, pushing every thought he forces himself to burn the fuel and start the car and with this he hits the road for his home.
'Or fir chal diye tum kaha hum kaha'
Zoya too shuts her eye again trying to gain her composure as she walks for the bus.
'Or fir chal diye tum kaha him kaha'
Zoya sits silently in bus looking at her side she spot two couples who are coying eachother, snuggling and laughing on sweet jokes. Her heart aches as she feels asad and herself sitting on the place and she is snuggling in his arm while asad is kissing and playing with her fingers, they are laughing softly on asad's some cocky yet sweet joke. And she finds herself heating up to him when he lands his hand on her waist while his nose touching on her cheeks, " i love you' he whispered back to her. Just then the bus driver put thw brake and her illusion broke and she finds herslf sitting in corner alone making her cheeks more wet and her eyes swollen with each tears.
' tum the ya thi koi ujali kiran tum the ya koi kali muskai thi'
Tum the ya sapno ka tha sawan tum the ya khushiyo ki ghata chai thi'
Tum the ke tha koi phool khila,
Tum the ya mila tha mujhe naya jahaan'
Asad drives on road when he sees two boys standing offside road with red roses in thier hands. His mind immediately drifts to the time where he took zoya with him for some gallery and she stares at the flower wanting them to have. But she remains quite and dont ask him to buy , asad had noticed it but didn't buy it for her. Her face had fall when he simply drove the car but still she didn't complaint.
asad calls those boys when the signal turns red and giving them 500 note he buys every single flower they had to sell. He takes the flower and bents to put it in back seat when thorns of one flower tears his skin and poursout blood. Few drops feel on the tip on that rose and it gets fells on the seat next him in front. Asad keeps the rest of flower behind while letting this lone flower sits pridely next to him. His sucks his finger to stop blood and starts his car once again to drive.
'Do pal ruka khwabo ka karwaan
or fir chal diye tum kaha hum kaha'
Asad parks his car in front of his home and he is about to get down when he gets a ring on his cell.
"James. I got that bas***d'
It was stella's voice and without even thinking he sits back in his car and continues to talk over bluetooth.
"Who is that man?" He asks with anger forming in his eyes.
"James. It feroz ansari. He was working for sabarshah nursery earlier.and now he is at islam humer school as watchman/security." She completes.
"And?"he raised his brow in question.
"Zoya pursued her nursery from sabarshah " she completes with a wry smile.
