"What are you doing here Adeel???" 

Zoya was having a hard time contemplating everything. The newfound revelation has shaken her to the core. Her mind went numb, her brain cells failed to recover from the shock and disbelief. It was too much for her to digest. Not only her, Eshal was equally shocked too.

"I was the one to call you!!!" Adeel exclaimed, inching closer to her.

"You? How come? What are you saying I can't understand anything." Never in her wildest nightmare did she imagine he would turn out to be the person who has been bothering her with those obsessive flowers and love notes for the past few months.

So it wasn't Armaan Khan, it was always him!!!

But how???

How couldn't she understand it??

How couldn't she recognize him??

"No worries sweetheart, I'll explain everything. Take a deep breath and Relax!!!" He poured water in a glass from the bedside table and extended towards her, gesturing her to drink, knowing she needed it the most at that moment. 

Zoya accepted the glass and gulped the water down her throat in one breath. After that she inhaled and exhaled a few deep breaths only then she could get a grip on herself and get back into her senses.

Adeel glanced at Eshal and mouthed her to leave them alone. Understanding his warning, she eyed Zoya who nodded for her to go.

"I'll wait outside." Peering at Adeel for one last time as if warning him he shouldn't harm her bestie in any way, she walked out.

"What's all this huh?? Are you playing with me???" Zoya screamed at him furiously.

"Aa ah! How could I dare to play with you??" Adeel feigned innocence.

"Stop messing with me Adi and answer me honestly, are you the one who has been sending me those love notes and bouquet of flowers and not Armaan???" This time Zoya bore into his eyes sharply, throwing daggers through her intense gaze making him amused.

That's what he loves about her, bold and fierce attitude!!!

"Yes!!!" Adeel admitted with utmost honesty.

"Why the hell would you do that???"

His face expression morphed into seriousness as he professed, "Because I'm in love with you. Love is a small word actually, I'm obsessed with you. I expressed my genuine feelings through those small gestures to let you know you mean the world to me. I don't know how and when I fell for you but I couldn't stop myself from feeling for you no matter how much I had restrained myself. Maybe it's because we've been close since childhood. Whenever we'd be together you brought joy, happiness and sunshine in my life with your jovial personality. Your childishness, your cuteness, your little spoiled attitude, everything about you used to attract me but you're too blind in love with Zain that you never noticed my love for you in my eyes or pay any heed to how differently I feel for you!!!"

What was he saying??

How's that possible??

How come she never felt his love for her?? Because he never tried to express it!!!

Learning that he is in love with her, It was another shock for Zoya. Her head felt dizzy hearing his confession. It was true apart from her husband, she never tried to see past through someone else's emotions because she never felt such feelings of love which she feels with Zain or from someone else other than him. Now things began to make sense to her. Only the closest person to you could stalk you ever so effortlessly, know about your whereabouts, what you're doing, what you're eating, what you're wearing. Armaan couldn't have, It all makes sense now!!!
