Chapter 12: Heart-stirring

Anjana was having a small get together with her friends . They were all having a good time talking with each other .
"So Anjana , tell me when are you giving us the good news about adi? When is he getting married ?" Asked one of her friends .

"Well, I myself need to ask him this question . He is completely focused on his work for now . He'll get married when the right time comes but trust me that'll be soon."

"That's nice. Pooja is lucky to be the daughter in law of Hoodas .Adi made a best choice." All the ladies agreed with her friend. Somewhere Anjana didn't find her words satisfying . She liked Pooja but somewhere inside she wasn't sure . Was she really better for Aditya she thought.

Her mind was deviated when she heard her other friend ,
"That's really good . I saw Pooja a moments back with a man . She said it was her cousin . She met me in a restaurant. She was so good . Anjana I must say your son really has a taste" . Anjana looked confused at what she said. Aditya went to Pooja's home saying he's going out with her. Then how can pooja be out with someone else . Infact her friend knew how Pooja looks so there's no doubt in meeting the wrong woman.

"Anjana? Where are you lost ?" Asked her friend.

"Nothing Rekha. Wait I'll just go and check on victor. He didn't get the juice yet." Saying this Anjana went to the kitchen.

"Seems like she has started mind planning of Aditya's wedding." Everyone laughed .

Anjana went to the kitchen. She was really tensed . She thought of calling Aditya and dialler his number but to her bad luck he didn't pick the call.

"Something is wrong adi". She said to herself .

*****

Heavy wind blew . The night was silent. Everything seemed quiet except her heart which was filled with chaos. She couldn't believe what just happened moments back . Aditya Hooda touched her and she didn't even budge . What was wrong with her ? She doesn't want to look back but the flashback kept playing again and again. She sat on her chair near window watching the moon. She felt helpless and shameless at the same time . She can't deny the fact that she too got involved in the moment. Be it for a second . The way Aditya kissed her neck, her shoulders , the way he held her waist , it all kept coming in front of her . She closed her eyes and uprighted her face denying the thoughts wanting to enter inside her mind . Again.

It was very hard for Zoya to digest what all happened at that very moment . She came home not aware of Noor's presence . She tried to control her tears . She didn't pay attention to Noor's words. She directly went to her room. Noor could easily make out something was wrong . She later went to Zoya's room to ask if she was alright . Zoya lied to her sister for the first time . She gave the reason of headache to which Noor didn't believe but thought to just let it be for a moment. She will ask her later because Zoya's expression seemed a way disturbed and she didn't want interfere much into it so she decided to ask her tomorrow morning .

Zoya wished to forget everything that happened but only if it was possible. She just stayed numb. Just then she saw Noor opening her bedroom door again.

"Noor you have dinner. I'm not in a mood to eat." Zoya said still looking at the moon.

"Appi..."

"Please Noor"

"Appi , Aditya is here."

This sentence was enough to make Zoya jolt from her position . She quickly stood up. Her face showed nervousness . Noor found her behaviour strange. She has never seen her Appi getting panicked . Specially when meeting someone like Aditya. Something was definitely wrong she thought.
