*3 years later*

Aditya gently placed his briefcase on the floor, trying to be quiet as possible. He heard the piano from his study and knew that Zoya was in there playing. Dressed in a sharp navy blue suit, he quietly slipped into the room. Zoya's back was facing him. Dressed in a casual salwar kameez, she was seated on the piano bench lost in the music.

Saiyyan...

It was her favorite tune. Aditya smiled and crept closer to her. She was focused on playing the chords...it'll be easy to scare her. Aditya grinned wickedly...almost there...3...2...1

"Aap aa gaye." Zoya said without turning back. It was more of a statement. She stopped playing and turned, giving Aditya a 'I know what you were about to do' smile.

Aditya pouted, his shoulders lowering in defeat, "How did you know I was here?"

Zoya stood up from the piano bench and giggled at Aditya's childish reaction. "We've been married how long?...I know your every move." Zoya said confidently and went into Aditya's waiting arms.

She lifted her face up and gave him a kiss. 3 years of marriage...and it was the best. Zoya still couldn't believe how blissful these years have been. Sure they fought...which married couple didn't? But when all was said and done, the love between them remained strong...and it remained true. And even after all these years, she felt it in her heart every time Aditya was near. It was a flutter every time he was close...she didn't need eyes to see him...her heartbeat always informed her. It was simply the connection they shared.

Aditya pulled back and looked down at Zoya, "Hi freckle face", he said affectionately and placed a soft kiss on her nose.

Zoya simply smiled back lovingly. "How was your meeting?" Zoya asked.

Aditya was now full time CEO of Hooda Hotels. "It went well...we'll sign the contract tomorrow." Aditya replied. "How was yours?" Aditya asked back.

Zoya was now running Siddiqui Electronics. She took over the empire when her father decided it was time to retire. "We closed the deal with the foreign delegates today...the new stores are planned to open by the end of this year." Zoya replied. "That's my girl." Aditya said, proud of his wife.

Both of them stepped into their respective roles so beautifully. Business was flourishing under Aditya and Zoya's guidance, and they were now considered the power couple of the corporate world.

Aditya leaned in for another kiss, but this time, was interrupted by the cry from the baby monitor. "Looks like she knows you are home too..." Zoya said, knowingly.

Aditya chuckled in response and they both walked over to the nursery. Going over to the bassinet, Aditya picked up the little bundle wrapped in a pink blanket. Green eyes, just like Zoya's, looked up at Aditya.

"Hi baby..." Aditya murmured and placed a soft kiss on his 3 month old daughter's forehead. They named her Adiya...for Aditya and Zoya.

"She is getting more and more beautiful...just like her mom." Aditya said, "You know I'm getting a gun right? Need to keep all the boys away from her." he said, earning a slap on his shoulder from Zoya.

"You will do no such thing!" Zoya lectured, trying to give Aditya a stern look but ended up laughing when Aditya simply grinned back.

Zoya then walked up and stood behind Aditya, wrapping her arms around his waist and resting her chin on his shoulder. They looked down at their daughter, simply soaking in the fact that she was theirs.

"Every time..." Aditya murmured, "Every time I come home...she wakes up. How does she know every time?" He asked, amazed at how much he loves this little bundle in his hands. His daughter yawned and started falling back asleep and Zoya smiled, feeling her heart swell with love...the sight of father and daughter always having this affect on her.
