Zoya and Sahir reached his house. Zoya immediately got down from the car and went to her room. She closed the door and sat on the floor. She then heard the voices of people saying that she is a bad luck. She closed her ears with her hands in order to stop the voices but the voices didn't stop. She continued crying for a long time and she didn't have any idea that for how many hours she continued crying. She wiped her tears when someone knocked on the door. She straightened her dress and opened the door only to greet a worried Sahir.

"Yes?" asked Zoya. "Nothing. Just came to check on you. Leave all that. You might be hungry. You have not eaten anything after breakfast, shall I bring something for you to eat?" asked Sahir.

"I am not hungry, Sahir", replied Zoya. "Zoya, why are you remaining hungry? What will happen if you remain hungry? Will Aditya come back? Will he be happy seeing his Zoya like this?" asked Sahir a bit angrily as Zoya refused to eat.

This time, Zoya got angry and shouted on Sahir, "Then what do you want me to do? I am trying my best to forget that accident. Even if I forget the accident, I won't be able to forget that Aditya lost his life while trying to save me."

He sighed and replied, "I know you are feeling guilty. But didn't you always tell us that everything in our life happens for a reason? You used to console me and Aditya whenever something wrong happened in our life. And now you are talking like this?"

He came forward and wiped her tears. "I am sorry, I got angry on you. But please eat something", requested Sahir.

"Sahir, I want to say something. Can I sleep in another room?" requested Zoya. "Of course. If you are not comfortable then you and Ammi can shift in other room", replied Sahir within a second.

"No need to bother Aunty. I want to stay alone", said Zoya. "But you are not able to sleep alone. Since childhood, your Nanny always used to sleep with you", argued Sahir. "I don't sleep anyway", saying this, Zoya gave him a fake smile.

Sahir closed his eyes to control his tears that were ready to escape from his eyes. His Zoya was always full of life. Since childhood whenever he used to get upset on some silly little things, she used to cheer him up. As a child, when he saw other kids with their father, he immediately used to feel that why his father is not with him. Even at that time, Zoya used to say that he has his Ammi and Zaki. Zoya had her parents, but she stayed away from them. No one knew the real reason that why her parents sent her away from them when she was a little girl of age 7. But he needed a grip on his emotions now. He needed to bring back the old Zoya. Aditya was his friend as well and he was not going to break the promise that he made yesterday night of bringing the old Zoya back.

"I'll send your food in the room itself. I'll also tell the servants to prepare the guest room so that you can shift there", saying this, he was about to leave but he remembered something and again looked at Zoya.
