Adiya's destiny

AND SHE IS GONE...

"bhai yeh property ke papers.. mujhe apna hissa alag chahiye...use bechke mein humesha ke liye Mussoorie shift hona chahta hoon...is sheher se ab koi rishta nahi rakhna chahta main...aapke sign ke bina batwaara nahi ho sakta toh aap please ispe pe sign kar dijiye jaldi se taki hum nikal paaye"

Adi kept looking at Arjun as he said all these,"saare rishte tor dega Arjun? khoon ke rishte bhi? Pa aur Ma ne bahut pyaar se is ghar ko sajaya tha thod mat ise please, tu poora ghar apne naam karle par please ma aur pa ke sapno ke ghar ko eise tod mat"

"par bhai mein bechna chahta hoon is ghar ko aur Mussoorie mein hi ek law firm kholna chahtu hoon"

A sad smile left left his mouth, but he didn't cry, he was exhausted, didn't have the energy to fight back

His hands were trembling but he managed to sign the papers, as soon as he finished Arjun snatched them away, "bhai mein bechne se pehle aapko notice bhijwa dunga", saying this he left.

He slowly walked back to his room because he didn't have the courage to see her moving out, he stood there at the centre like a statue all numb.

Zoya's POV

After seeing the papers in Arjun's hand I went to Abbu, "abbu please, hum jaante hai humare rishte mein daraar hain magar please humein yaha rehne de abbu"

"Aap sure hain Zoya woh phirse aap pe shak nahi karenge, phirse aapko ghar se bahar nahi nikalenge, ab toh unka ghar bhi nahi raha unke paas, aap hume is baat ka assurance de Zoya, hum aapko wapas lautne ke liye force nahi karenge"

I didn't have any answer for his questions so I had to give in, I slowly stood up and moved out of the room

We were living when I turned back to look at my home for the last time, I remembered how he had fought with his mother and left the house for me, how could he doubt me? the only question that crossed my mind. I cursed that day , the moment and that Rajveer Khanna for doing whatever he did which made me lose my love today.

Lost in my thoughts, when I reached to the car I didn't even realize, I was about to step in when I turned back and ran inside the house

"Zoya...", I heard my father calling me but my mind didn't register anything at that moment, I just dashed inside pushing open the door of my room, he stood there, hearing the door open he turned back.

We stared at each other and the momet was magical, without thinking twice I kissed him, cupping my face he kissed me back, none of us thought, we were only kissing each other with everything we had as if the world would end the moment we parted, tears kept flowing from our closed eyes.

Unable to breathe we parted, but our lips kept lingering over each other's, foreheads joined we stayed like that with his hands on my cheeks and my hand on his neck

"Zoya go...", he whispered still holding onto me

"rok lijiye hume please... hum mar jaayenge aapke bina", I sobbed as I asked him to fight for me

"main bhi..."

"please rok lijiye..."

"kya kehke roku Zoya", there was helplessness in his voice, he wanted to hold me in his arms forever but the punishments he was getting for calling me tainted were too harsh for him, that is when I realized he hadn't forgiven himself for what had happened one year back.

"Zoya jao...go... don't make it harder...go", he whispered detaching himself from me .

We stood apart, our fingers entwined, both of us looked down as we were emotionally struggling to detangle those fingers.

I sat in my room quietly, Mussoorie had always filled colours, light and happiness in my life but today nothing lit up my life as the colours, light and happiness of my life was struggling to breathe somewhere in Mumbai.

I had refused to move out of my room since two days we had returned, ammi would come to feed me and I would only cry in her arms

Abbu now and then tried to take me out of that dark room but how could I see light when I know my heart was beating in the darkness of his room. If he had no light in his life how could I have.

Noor's engagement preparations were going on, but my mind only revolved around his thoughts, ammi understood and didn't force me to join.

All day I wondered what he might be doing alone in that big house? what was he eating? how was he eating alone? was he even eating?

I called him twice or thrice but he didn't receive, neither did he call back

So, to know about him I used to call on the landline number which was received either by Marcus or Victor and the only thing they told me was he didn't come out of his room, he would order food eat inside but wouldn't come out.

My phone rang, I received it as it was hooda house landline number, "Ma'am...ma'am woh sir...aap please jaldi aa sakti hain...sir aapko hi bula rahe hain baar baar...please ma'am", it was Victor, his voice was trembling.

Aditya's POV

I saw her fingers detangling from mine as she turned back and ran out... till the end she pleaded me to stop her to hold her and not let her go, but I couldn't, my fears didn't allow me, I failed as a husband... again

as the door shut behind her my legs trembled and I fell on my knees, "Zoya..." I whispered but she was gone, I cried and cried, curled up on the floor, my tears refused to stop, I want her..."I love u Zoya...I love u...I love u...",I kept whispering till my throat dried up and my tears were finished.
