Ok you guys. So I wrote this part along with the last chapter. Thought of posting it yesterday itself but then I thought of something and well the response I have got. 😂😂 Thank you so much for loving Zoya and Sahir. Enjoy this one. 😊
-----------------------------------------------------

"Zaira.. Jaldi aayiye. Hum late ho rahe hai." Zoya called out from the hall.
"Jee Ammi." Came a soft, cute voice of a kid.
Zoya felt sudden warmth around her. She knew who it was. She smiled when those muscular arms wrapped around her waist. She bent back to lay her head on his chest. Sahir took this oppurtunity to place a soft kiss on her cheeks. He saw it turn deep red. She really looked so cute when she blushed.

She closed her eyes staying in that very position. After a moment spoke, "I still cant believe Sahir that we are alive and we are together."
"It all destiny my dear wife. Zoya and Sahir were meant to be. " he smiled and snuggled closer to her.

Flashback
Sahir's eyes burnt with the direct sunlight that hit his face. With much difficulty he tried to open his eyes. He got up and found himself on the river bank but it was not the city. Infact city was no where near. His head ached severely. He held it and tried to recall. Events of the previous night flashed before his eyes, they had jumped in the river. He remembered, taking one last breath before sinking in. Then where was he? "Heaven or hell?" He wondered.

"Zoya!" He looked around and found her lying on the sand. He rushed to her and patted her cheeks. "Wake up baby." Zoya moved a bit and that brought him great relief. Within next few minutes, she rubbed her eyes and opened in slowly. Seeing Sahir beside her, she opened her eyes wide in shock and sat up straight. She looked surprised and confused. She looked at him and touched his face to make sure he was real. Tears rolled down her eyes.

She hugged him tight with Sahir clutching onto her shirt as well. They broke free and looked around. It seemed as an isolated area. "Where are we? Are we in afterlife?" Zoya asked with utmost seriousness. "Oh trust me Zoya, I felt the same." He said getting up and then helping her stand.

"No. You people are very much alive." A voice came from behind. They turned around only to find the same old lady , they had met years ago , who saved them, the one Zoya had seen in Dargah. She was smiling at them.
"Par kaise? Hume yaad hai.. hum.." "Haan lekin tumhe bacha liya gaya." She said.
"Par yeh mumkin hi nahi hai." Zoya said still surprised.
"Jab Allah ki rehmat hoti hai na toh sab mumkin ho jaata hai." She smiled.
"Universe has put a great effort for you both and you people decided to end up just like that?" The woman seemed angry now.

"Par hume bachaya kisne?" Sahir asked.
"Maine."
"Par aap yaha kaise? Aur hum kaha hai?"
"Tum log seher se kaafi door ho. Un logo ne tumhe dhoondhna bhi band kar diya. " she replied.
"Sahir aur Zoya meri baat suno, Allah ne tum dono ko bohot shiddat se banaya hai. Universe has it means of healing people and you two were meant to meet, to heal each other. From here on, just go and make a new life. Leave the past behind. " she said and started walking away.
"Shukriya. " They said. Though they had so many questions but they were thankful that they were alive and together. If they were blessed with another chance, they would hold onto life.
They turned around and started walking. Suddenly, something hit Sahir's thoughts and he turned back to ask, " Lekin aapko humara naam kaise pata?" To their surprise, there was no one. It seemed as if that woman vanished in thin air.

They started their life all over again. Though Zoya missed her family sometimes, she knew they were fine . They left the city and after staying under false identity for few years and making enough money, they shifted to London. Sahir started with a business all over again and within a short time regained the status. Zoya in the meanwhile joined law college as a professor. Life was getting normal until one fine day -
"Sahir! Sahir! " Zoya shouted from her room. She seemed really panicked. Sahir rushed to her room only to find her in shock. He cupped her cheeks. "What is baby?" Zoya had tears rolling down her eyes.
"You wont love me the most anymore." Zoya said crying. Sahir couldnt understand anything.
"What are you saying Zoya? I love you and only you. Why such thoughts?" He asked. He was really upset.
