"Zoya maine kuch nahi kiya hai...please galat mat samjho...tumhe kaise dhoka de sakta hoon ", Aditya was still in the same place where Zoya had left him, pleading and requesting her to trust him
on the other hand Zoya was sitting on a bench in the garden, completely wet due to the rain but still, she didn't utter a single word, not even to herself
They remained like that for very long, trying hard to comprehend what had just happened in their beautiful world
She sat under the rain letting it wash away every single thing going on in her mind and heart
Whereas, he sat on the floor lifeless, finally life had become beautiful, both were in a bliss but the bubble was not long to live and had burst in the worst possible way, he thought
"Zoya", he came back to his senses, it was raining heavily and she was out
He rubbed off his tears and stood up to go and bring her back, but the next thing he saw blew away his mind
Waseem Siddiqui and Roshnaq Siddiqui standing at his door and wait what is Meeta doing with them
"dikha di na apni aukaat aapne?", Waseem spoke up
"hum jaante thhe sachhai kitna bhi chhupa le ek na ek din samne toh aani hi hai...aakhir Harshvardhan Hooda ke hi bete hai...khoon mein hai na aaplogo ke dhoka dena", Waseem kept making allegations against him and his family but he couldn't say anything because whatever Waseem said was right
"Zoya", he whispered as he saw her standing at the door all wet and shattered
Roshnaq immediately brought her in and stood there holding her
"beta aap thik toh hai?", Waseem asked placing a hand on her head
Zoya didn't utter a word, seeing Zoya's condition Waseem said,
"Roshnaq jayein Zoya ke kapde pack kar lijiye, woh humare saath chalegi...yaha nahi rahegi humari beti
Aditya couldn't speak a word, he was guilty of his actions, but was it even his mistake?
"aap Zoya ko bhul jayiye samjhe...ayinda humari beti ke aas paas bhi dikhe na toh humse bura koi nai hoga"
Aditya wanted to stop her hold her to him for eternity, therefore, he slowly moved towards her and taking her hand in his he spoke
" Zoya kuch bolo please aise chup mat raho... please...", he softly spoke to her looking deeply into her eyes, their eyes were doing the talk when Waseem spoke up
"Zoya ab kuch nahi bolegi...hum apni beti ko ap jaise dhokebaaz ke saath nahi rehne denge...chaliye Zoya" Waseem said separating their hands harshly
Roshnaq took her to their room and she quietly went inside the washroom
---
Aditya came inside and knelt down in front of Roshnaq who was sitting on their bed
without saying anything he just kept his head on her lap, there was an unspoken bond between these two...everytime he was distressed he would come and sleep on her lap, though they didn't get to spend much time together but still they shared a very deep relationship, but something was different this time, Roshnaq didn't keep her hand on his head and on realizing this a lone tear trickled down his eye
"aap toh humare achhe bete thhe phir kyun?", after a silent moment Roshnaq finally spoke up
"ammi maine kuch nahi kiya... please bharosa kijiye mera", Aditya raised his head and pleaded at least her to believe him
"kaise Aditya...kaise? Zoya ne apni aakhon se dekha hai aap dono ko bistar...bohot galat kiya aapne Aditya...",so Meeta had told her story to them
"ammi...", only a whisper left his mouth, because Roshnaq was his last hope, after Zoya it was only Roshnaq who trusted him
leaving him there she went out, closing the door behind her, maybe she was giving both of them space to talk it out
Aditya sat there numb as tears rolled down his eyes...he couldn't take in the fact that he had just lost everything
He was brought back to his senses by the sound of the door as Zoya came out wearing a fresh set of cloth, seeing her dressed he stood up and went to her
"Zoya, please mera bharosa karo maine kuch nahi kiya hai, Zoya main aisa kar hi nahi sakta...tum janti ho dhoke se kitni nafrat karta hoon main, main nahi kar sakta na aise...Zoya bolo na please main kya karoon ki tum maan jao...please mat jao chhodke...please, tumhe...tumhe gussa karna hai na, karlo...galiyaan de do but please chhodke mat jao...main kaise jiyunga tum dono ke bina...maine kuch nahi kiya hai...wohh ladki...wohh Zabardasti kar rahi thhi mujhpe...Zoya main sach bol raha hoon, tumhare ilawa mera koi nahi hai Zoya please...main sach bol raha hoon", he said sobbing
Zoya who hadn't uttered a single till now spoke up finally,
"hum jaante hai", Aditya whose head was hung down looked up surprised, a small smile appeared in between his tears
"aapko kya laga hum bharosa nahi karenge aap pe ...hum uss ladki ki baat manenge aapki baat chhodke...humara vishwas itna kamzor nahi hai Aditya...hum toh iss baat ke liye darr gaye thhe ki agar hum waqt pe nahi aate toh kya ho jata...", she choked, but, gulping down she continued
"Aditya apne bachhe ko apne abbu aur ammi ka pura pyaar dena hai hume...agar hum nahi aate toh shayad...aur hum jaante hai uske aap khud ko kabhi maaf nahi kar paate, hum aapke liye darr gaye thhe Aditya...apne bachhe ke liye darr gaye thhe...ek pal liye bhi ap pe shak nahi hua hume, ho hi nahi sakta...hum jaante hai aap gussa karte hai, bachho ki Tarah naraz ho jaate hai, baat bhi karna band kar dete hai par aap dhoka nahi de sakte...hum jaante hai", she said cupping his face and Aditya listened to everything intently, there was pain in his eyes, relief on his face, all the emotions had just mixed up inside him
Looking at Aditya she knew there was whirlwind of emotions going on inside him, so to calm it down she softly placed her lips on his and kissed him gently...he simply closed his eyes and gave in letting her dominate. At the very moment he only wanted to feel his wife's presence within him
"thank you", he whispered hugging her tightly as tight as he could, she also hugged him back and Aditya let it all go as he collapsed to the ground still in the hug, Zoya held him tightly to her sitting down with him letting her tears flow as well
They stayed like that for some time, he cried it all out and she kept holding him close to her heart and kept running her fingers through his hair...she knew the intensity of the situation he was in, his life could have been spoiled had she not arrived on time
---
Both came out holding each other's hand firmly
"chaliye Zoya", Waseem stood up to leave
"nahi Mr. Siddiqui hum kahin nahi ja rahe...apne shohar ko chhodke hum kahin nahi jayenge", Zoya spoke looking directly into her father's eyes
"shohar hahaha...dhokebaaz hai yeh ek...itna bara saboot bhi kaafi nahi hai aapke liye", smirk clearly visible on his face
"shayad paise kam pad gaye aapke, convince nahi kar payi Meeta hume apni acting se...", her gaze sharp on Meeta now
Waseem was shocked that Zoya knew it was him who had sent Meeta to ruin Aditya's image in front of Zoya, but it was Meeta's plan to take advantage of Aditya to fulfill her desires
