"chod usse", I warned him holding his hand which he was about to place on Zoya's shoulder
"Zoya chalo", holding her hand firmly I tried to move away from him
---
we were walking down a lane, it was a dark road, population was very less only few people here and there...she held my hand firmly...I could sense the fear in her
"Zoya"
"ji", she replied
"darr lag raha hai?"
"nahi...aap hai na", saying this she looked at me smiling, though, it was a teasing smile but she's so cute yaar
"haha...main koi shahrukh khan hoon jo gundo se akele lad jaunga", lightening the situation I said
"haww...aap itne kamzor hai...hume nahi pata tha ki humare pati itne darpok hai", she pouted as she said it
"eh! heylo main koi darpok nahi hoon...tum Aditya Hooda ko kamzor samajh rahi ho?", I said with my nose at a right angle.
We were busy in our banter proving each other correct, respectively, when she shouted out my name
"Aditya"
"kya kya baat hai?", I asked petrified of god knows what
"ice-cream, waha, chaliye", looking at me with a hopeless expression she moved towards the stall
"bade aaye bahaduri dikhane wale...ice-cream dekhke dar gaye...", she said showing her tongue to me
"arre yaar Zoya main ice-ccream se kyun darunga, main toh...", before I could complete she interrupted
"phir kisse dargaye aap humse...boliye Mr.Hooda...boliye...haww...Mr.Aditya Hooda apni biwi se darr gaye...yah Allah, ab iss sharminda chehre ko lekar hum kaha jaye...", she did the typical 'nahiii...' action, such a drama queen, saying mentally I smiled looking at her cute antics
"ha ab tum aise chillaogi toh...", before I could complete, the ice-cream vendor said,
"lijiye do mango aur ek tooti-frooti ice-cream", forwarding the ice-cream cones before us
I gave him the money, luckily they didn't ask for my wallet, so financially we were at least not tensed...both of our credit cards were there in my wallet itself...and the money we both had, would take us one month at least because Zoya's maximum amount was in Zosh's account which was no more accessible for us
"ee...barish", I cried as we ran under the shade...it was an under construction building
We went inside...and stood there eating our ice-cream and waiting for the rain to get over...
I was looking outside as the thoughts of our state and tension crept in, not knowing where to go, where to spent the night was scary way more than I had thought...it's not that I hadn't spent nights outside...after Pooja's death, most of the nights, I used to stay awake wandering here and there all drunk, but, today the situation was different...I had her with me, keeping her safe was the foremost priority...thus it scared me, because I know, now I don't have a house were I would return after staying out all night...looking at the sky I remembered him...the man who stood behind me no matter what the relationship between us was...my PA...'kyun chale gaye chhor ke mujhe aise akele Pa...aap toh jaante the na mein abhi tak bachha hi hoon nahi hoon Arjun ki tarah...nahi aate duniya ke yeh khel samajh mein...kyun chale gaye apne Chiku ko chorke?' the question clouded my mind, I wanted to ask him but he was no more with me, my eyes blurred due to the tears that had formed.
"Aditya...", she softly placed a hand on my shoulder
I turned and hugged her, understanding my vulnerability,she held me tightly stroking my back
"sab thik ho jayega na Zoya?", I asked her rubbing off my tear parting from her
she cupped my face with one hand and said, "Aditya, pehli baar toh nahi hai hum problem main hai, haina? tab bhi sambhala tha ek dusre ko abh bhi sambhal lenge...don't worry", she assured me with a smile
I smiled back at her through my tears...rubbing my tears, she said,
"itni fikr na kiya karein aap...itne handsome se chehre ko kya buddho jaisi bana di hai...aur upar se ice-cream bhi poori pighal gayi",looking down I realized my ice-cream was long gone
"areh meri ice-cream", I said pouting, then suddenly something struck me, 'did she just call me handsome', my heart started doing bhangra...
"hum laa de ek aur?"
"nahi", I shouted trying to control my heart which had decided to come out and dance today
"arre par kyun...hum ja rahe hai na tissue laane, dekhiye na muh mein lag gaya hai poora...toh apke liye bhi le ayenga...", she said as she showed me her lips which had ice-cream all over
She said it innocently but had no idea how much that turned me on
I went near her, slowly encircled my arms around her waist...
"tissue laane ki kya zaroorat hai...main hoon na", my voice had grown all dark and husky with desire
"Aditya kya kar rahe hain...aap", she stuttered, breathing heavily she looked down
I licked the corner of her lips...which made her close her eyes tightly
"kuch bhi toh nahi...ice-cream kha raha hoon tumhi toh bol rahi thi khane ko", my breaths also turning heavy with the proximity, as it turned me on more and more
"koi dekhlega...", gasping she managed to say these words
"dekhne do", these words came out in a whisper as our lips brushed against each other's...both of us knew we were loosing our control
my eyes were fixed on her lips laden with ice-cream and she closed her eyes, I slowly pressed my lips on hers delicately kissing her
Her hands traveled to my nape and my hold on her tightened as I deepened the kiss...the kiss took away all the tension and the worry that had clouded our minds the entire day...I bit her lip, she opened her mouth letting me in and exploring every bit of her mouth, I felt as if my entire world was around me, and it was, she is after all my world...more than passion, this kiss had love...
Two lovers assuring each other their presence, two souls becoming one so that even if the world tore our bodies apart the souls still remained together...with the kiss somewhere both of us were releasing from our minds the fear of death, knowing it was hovering over our heads, being fearless was the only option
panting we broke apart...this was the longest I had kissed her till now...but, as we looked at each other both of us knew, we had fallen in love all over again at this moment, we had tears in our eyes, smile on our faces, it felt as if we found life again...the moment was magical...
I hugged her tightly...placing my chin on her head I smiled looking at the sky, thanking God for sending her into my life, for letting me reach my destiny
Closing our eyes we stood there hugging each other...
This very moment I realized the power of love...it is the only force that exists in the universe...love neither has birth nor death, it is eternal...
ZOYA'S POV
Being in his embrace was the most surreal thing I've experienced...it felt as if the universe enclosed me in it's arms giving me all the love and care for my wounded soul
"thud", I hear a sound and the next thing I saw was him collapsing in my arms
"Aditya...Aditya...aakhein kholiye...please", I tried to wake him up
"adi...", I could feel a huge hand pressing a cloth to my mouth...and I lost my conciousness
