So, this bonus chapter is set before their wedding...and obviously in Paris...Hope you like it...muah...Also, I've never been to Paris so it's all my imagination of the things will be plus Google is always there...

"Aditya uthiye bohot der ho gayi hai..."

"Zoya bas thodi der aur..."

"Aapko hum se zyada apni neend pasand hai?"

She made a pout after saying this.

"Neend mein bhi toh tumhare hi sapne dekhta hun..."

He stood up from the bed and started walking in her direction. He back hugged her which made her jerk and she pushed him. From the impact they both fell onto the floor, with him being on top. Zoya's eyes were shut tight as she knew her head will hit the floor but she didn't feel anything and found his hand beneath her head.

He started leaning in while she was still trying to overcome from the shock.

Just when he was about to kiss her his phone rang.

Their lovely, romantic moment was destroyed by a phone call. The phone lying on the bedside table was ringing as if a holocaust has arrived.

He groaned as he felt his beautiful moment with her destroying.

"Aditya..."

"Hello"

"Aditya!!! Hum itni der se aapko phone mila rahe hain aur aap humari call utna hi nahi rahe hain"

"Zoya..?"

He found himself sitting on the bed clutching on a pillow.

"Ab chup kyu ho gaye, pehle humara phone nahi uthate phir uthate hain to mooh band karke baith jaaye hain kya ahmaq hain kya, ya allah humare hone wale shouhar ahmaq hain ab ky-"

"ZOYA CHUP!!!"

His head has started to ache because of her ranting.

"Shaadi ke baad kya haal hoga tera"

"Ji, kuch kaha kya aapne"

"Nhi. Vai..vaise Zoya tumne call kyu ki thi"

"Ya allah aapke chakkar mein hum yehi bhool gaye ki humne call kyu ki thi...ha! vo hum soch rahe the ki kyun na Mumbai wapas jaane se pehle thoda Paris ghoom le ek saath"

"Hmm...Not bad"

"Thik hai aap 10 baje humein lene aa jaiyega"

"Zo-"

Before he could say anything, she ended the call.

"Sapne mein bhi Zoya aur hakeekat mein bhi..."

He whispered to himself and started blushing, hiding his face in the pillow.

___

"Zoya aap bhi na ek number ki bewkoof hain unse pick karne ke liye bol toh diya lekin unhe address nahi bheja"

"Janaab ke saath reh rehkar ahmaq hoti jaa rhi hain"

Just when she was about to message him her address, her doorbell rang. She rushed to see who it is and was shocked to the core to see him.

"Aap yahan kaise!!??"

He walked past her into the apartment and started exploring her little abode.

"Tumne hi to kaha tha pick karne ko bhool gayi kya"

"Lekin address"

"Main to tumhari nas nas se wakif hu...address to fir bhi ek choti baat hai"

Little did she knew, that he had all the information about her which she was hiding from everyone from the past 8 months.

"To chalen"

"Aap chaliye hum apna purse lekar aate hain"

_____

Zoya settled herself in the passenger seat.

"To kuch plan hai ya fir aise hi..."

She took out a paper roll from her purse and rolled it as if it was obvious.

"Ye sab ek din ke liye..."

Aditya's eyes widened at the sight before him as if in the next moment he would be looking for them near the accelerator.

Zoya started explaining her plan to him and his head started to ache.

He placed his finger on her lips to shut her up.

"Pehle coffee piyenge...'La Closerie Des Lilas' pe...jahan maine tumhe aath mahine baad pehli baar dekha tha..."

Zoya took a sip of her coffee and foam on it made a mustache on her face.

"Zoya tumhe mooch mooch hota hai zyada pasand hai kya "

"Ji matlab"

He gestured her to come a little close and wiped the foam from her upper lip.

Her mouth instantly opened and her cheeks turned red due to embarrassment. She looked down in her lap not being able to meet his eyes due to shame.

"Zoya mere se sharmane ki kya zarurat"

He reached for her hand placed on the table and caressed it with his thumb in order to comfort her.

"Zoya, I love you unconditionally and when I say that I mean it..."

Tears welled up in her eyes and she placed her another hand on his.

"Ab jaldi chalo ek hi din hai humare paas"

He held her wrist and briskly rushed to the car. He drove to a place and didn't tell her about it.

When the car halted he said, "Chalo thoda sukoon maang lete hain..."

He parked the car and came out of it and then went to open her door.

"Ye konsi jagah hai Aditya..."

"Do you trust me?"

"Ye bhi koi poochne ki baat hai...humein aap par khudse zyada yakeen hai"

"Toh chalo fir"

He entangled his fingers with hers and guided her.

When they reached their destination, he looked at her and she was just amazed to see the sight before her.

"Notre dame Cathedral"

"Toh andar chalen"

"Ji zaroor..."

"Ya allah ye kitna sundar hai...shukriya Aditya...humein yahan laane ke liye..."

He didn't said anything rather he just stood there holding her hand and looking at her with a smile on his face.

They both went inside and were enchanted by the beauty of it. It was so beautiful.

They both went a further inside and started lighting some candles...together. They both kneel down in front of Him with their hands folded and a calm, peaceful expression covered their face.

"Ya allah Aditya ko humesha mehfooz rakhiyega"

Zoya prayed in her heart praying for his well being.

"Vaise toh aapke saath mera itna accha experience nahi raha hai...main apne liye kuch nahi mangoonga...bas meri Zoya ko surakshit rakhiyega..."

Aditya prayed in his heart for her well being.

Both opened their eyes at the same time and looked at each other smiling. They both got up and headed to sit on the chairs.

"Yahan kitna sukoon hai na"

"Chalein..."

"Chaliye..."

They both settled in the car and started exploring more of Paris, more of them. They grabbed something from a nearby cafe to eat.

The car halted, the sign that they have reached their next destination.

"Ab kahan laaye hain humein?"

"Tum bina kuch bole bina kuch pooche mere saath aaogi...you trust me na"

"Ye bhi koi poochne ki baat hai humein aap par khudse zyada bharosa hai..."

"To chalo"

They both made their way out of the car and entangled their fingers.

"Yahan se hum paidal jaayenge...chalte chalte apni manzil tak pohonch jaayenge..."

"Chaliye..."

"Vaise Aditya...aapne humein kaise dhoonda..."

"Tum chahe kitna bhi chup lo main har baar tumhe dhoond hi loonga...vo terrace wala incident bhool gayi kya..."

"Lekin uss din to Arj..."

She got a little confused and then landed on the conclusion.

"Us din aapne humein bachaya tha??!!"

"Agar main kahoon ha toh"

"Aapne humse ye baat kyun chupayi..."

"Kyunki...main tumhe is waqt ye nahi ehsaas dilana chahta tha ki mere andar bhi acchayi hai...lekin kismat dekho Zoya...waqt ne kiya kya haseen sitam tum rahe na tum hum rahe na hum..."

"Aakhir kismat ne hi to milaya hai humein...bhool gye humari kismat judi hui hai..."

"Bilkul humare haathon ki tarah?"

"Aditya!"

She said and hit him on his arm.

"Pohonch gaye..."

"Tumhe iska naam pata hai?"

"Pont des Arts"

"Tumhe pata hai yahan pe pehle log love locks pe apne naam likh kar taangte the aur uski chaabi pani mein fek dete the...taaki vo kabhi alag na ho paayen...lekin kuch din pehle vo taale hata diye gaye...pyaar ka bhaar ye bridge bhi nahi jhel paya...kya pyaar ko nibhana itna mushkil hai?"

"Pyaar nibhana itna mushkil nahi hota balki bharosa bekaraar rakhna hota hai...chahe koisa bhi rishta ho bina bharose ke nahi nibhaya ja sakta...aur bharosa ek lakeer ki tarah hota hai...zara sa bhi idhar udhar ho gaye to toot jaata hai..."

"Agar main bharose se bhatka to tum mujhe sambhalna aur agar tum bhatki to main tumhe raah par launga...lekin him apna bharosa nahi tootne denge..."

"Humesha..."

They walked on the bridge for sometime and clicked some pictures.

"Ab kahan jaana hai?"

"Bas yahan se thodi door chalte hi ek museum hai vahan chalte hain..."

"Chaliye"

After walking for five minutes, they reached their destination.

"Louvre museum"

"Ha...yaar tumhe to sab kuch rata pada hai..."

"Aapko nahi pata humne ye sab bachpan se plan kar rakha tha...aapko to pata hai na ki Par-"

"Ha ha pata hai 'Paris world ki sabse romantic sabse beautiful' jagah hai..."

He tried to imitate her which made her hit his arm again.

"Chaliye andar chalte hain..."

They entered the museum and were astonished by its elegance and beauty.

"Ya allah ye th bohot hi sundar hai..."

"Tumse kam"

"Kuch kaha aapne?"

"Nahi toh"

They started exploring the museum more with their hands entangled, still.

"Vaise Zoya tumne mujhe bataya nahi ki tumhe pottery ka bhi shauk hai..."

Her face again turned red.

"Aapko ye kisne bataya...Noor! inhe to hum chodenge nahi..."

"Kyun bohot acchi karti ho kya..."

"Aap humein chidana band karein..."

When they finally settled in the car, they were so tired, they literally explored the whole museum.

"Hum thak gye..."

"Main bhi..."

"Kuch kha lete hain..."

"Ha chaliye..."

They reached their next destination.

"Yahan se thoda chalna padega..."

"Hain!!?? Aditya hum bohot thak rahe hain..."

"Zoya kya tum chahti ho ki main poore Paris mein tumhe godi mein uthaye ghumu..."

"Ye kaisi baatein kar rahein hain aap..."

"Humari thakaan gayab ho gayi..."

He bit his inner cheek as he was trying his best to not burst out laughing.

"Pohonch gaye"

"Chaliye andar chalte hain...humein bohot tez bhook lagi hai..."

She rushed inside saying this.

"Abhi to thaki hui thi ab itni furti kahan se aayi..."

He thought in his mind.

"Aap kya poore din yahin pe khade rehne wale hain?"

"Nahin na-"

Before he could say anything else, she grabbed his wrist and dragged him inside. He followed her like a lost puppy.

She chose the table and settled there while he was still thinking of what happened a few minutes ago.

"Aditya..."

He was brought out, no...dragged out of his thought process.

He quietly went and sat opposite her. She ordered for herself and looked at his face to see what will he order.

On getting no reply, she added a few more items for him.

Well, I should tell you that Aditya is still thinking something and is staring at Zoya.

When the waiter went from there taking their order, she pinched his hand which was kept on table.

"Ouch!"

"Humein ghoorna band karein..."

Their food came after a while.

"Ab ye mat kahiyega ki order kab kiya..."

She read his shocked expressions and said, "Ya allah, humare hone wale shouhar ko short term memory loss hai...ab hum kya karein...aapko humara naam yaad hai?...ya all-"

"Zoya chup sab dekh rahe hain..."

"Toh dekhen"

"Video record kar rahe hain viral ho jaayega"

"To ho jaaye.."

"Agar tumhare abbu ke paas pohonch gaya toh meri to wo chutney hi bana denge..."

She let out a chuckle on this.

"Khana thanda ho raha hai.."

They filled their stomachs and made their way to their car.

"Aditya, ab hum aapko kahin leke jaayenge...humein gaadi ki chaabi den"

"Zoya...lekin "

"Lekin wekin kuch nahi humne keh diya na bas..."

He settled in the passenger seat quietly holding the seat belt very tight and looked with innocent eyes at her.

"Aise kya dekh rahe hain? Humein driving aati hai..."

"Maine kab kaha nahi aati...vo to bas prevention is better than cure..."

He whispered the last part to himself.

"Ji kya kaha aapne..."

"Kuch nahi..."

He sent a silent prayer to God.

When the car halted,

"Aditya!"

"Nahi main itni jaldi marna nahi chahta...abhi to golu rinki sonu sweety bhi nahi aaye is duniya mein...nahi...itn-"

"Aditya! aankhen kholiye...hum pohonch gaye..."

He slowly opened his eyes and checked his pulse.

"Main zinda hoon!?"

He said and hugged her tight.

"Humein aapse baat hi nahi karni..."

She turned off the engine and threw the key at him.

"Khud band karke aa jaiyega..."

Saying this, she stormed out of the car while he was still celebrating his 'rebirth'.

"Hain!!?? Ye kya hua..."

He said and hit his own head.

"Gadhe!"

He hurriedly locked the car and made his way to her shouting her name.

But, she was adamant to not listen to him. He should be punished was her thought.

She went and sat on the grass ground.

He came and settled by her side.

"Zoya...sorry...na"

She didn't utter a single word.

"Yaar ab silent treatment...sorry na"

"Dekho na maine apne kaan bhi pakde hain...ab uthak baithak karun kya...deewane se ho gayi galti jaane do na yaar..."

"Vaise ye idea bura nahi hai..."

"To pehle bolti na..."

He stood up and started doing sit ups. Before he could begin the second one, she stood up from her place and embraced him.

"Bas...itna kaafi hai"

She said and hugged him more tightly so that he could not breathe.

"Aap jaante hain humne aapko itne din kitna miss kiya? Roz apne khwabon mein aapse milte the aur jab aankhen kholte the toh aap gaayab ho jaate the...I love you Aditya..."

"Zoya firse bolna...kya bola kuch samajh nahi aaya..."

She hit him again on his arm and again hugged him.

"I love you too..."

He said while hugging her. They stood there hugging each other for as long as they wanted.

They finally seperated. He cupped her face and leaned in. She leaned in too and the two lost lovers finally found solace in each other under the sky.
