6 Months Later-

"Noor" Zoya shouted "Noor" she shouted again

"Yes Aapi" Noor smiled sweetly, yawning

"Your to be fiancee will be here soon, dont you want to meet him" Zoya chided

Noor's face dropped, she looked down at her pyjamas, she was nowhere near ready, she turned quickly, running back up the stairs as Zoya laughed

Waseem stepped forward, smiling at Zoya "Go, eat breakfast now, you've been up for hours getting the house ready"

She nodded and ran off into the kitchen to eat quickly

Zoya ran to the door, quickly pulling it open, she smiled

Arjun looked up "Hey, i'm Arjun"

Zoya shook his hand, and moved to the side for him to come in

"This is my mum, Anjana, my father and brother couldn't make it" he smiled

Zoya hugged Anjana "Hi Aunty" she ran off quickly to get the snacks and tea for the guests as they all spoke

XXX

Zoya sat on her bed facing Noor "So, you like him right"

Noor nodded "He's really polite, kind and funny, he seems to come from a good family to"

Zoya's face dropped "Aditya came from a good family to, looks can be deceiving, his father was"

Noor squeezed her hand "His father is far away now aapi, please, dont worry anymore"

Zoya looked off into the distance, a fearful expression on her face

"If you keep going on about this Aditya, I may start to think you like him" Noor winked, trying to change the mood

Zoya shook her head, she smiled as she reminisced "No, nothing like that, he was just a very good friend to me when I needed him, I guess I know that we have no reason to be in contact anymore, I just wish I knew if he was happy, you know, because he deserves happiness"

Aditya stood outside the shopping mall, he downed his bottle of alcohol then threw it to the floor, his head ached from the constant nights without sleep

BEEP sounded the car horn as Aditya jumped out of the way, he laughed loudly

"Wouldn't want to get run over again" his smile dropped as he looked up

"Why me, why did this have to be my life, yeh itna chort kyun karta hai" (Why does it hurt so much) he sobbed, sliding down the pillar

Life wasnt meant to be like this, after moving out of the family home, getting his wife arrested and losing the only friend he had in a long time, nothing seemed worth it anymore

He looked down at his phone as it buzzed beside him, he sniffed and answered the call

"Bhai, please dont cut the phone, i'm getting engaged in five days, and I really want you to be there, it wouldnt be the same without you" pleaded Arjun

Aditya sighed heavily, he loved his brother, even if he had left the house

And he didn't want to miss something that would make his brother smile

"Text me the address" he cut off quickly, leaning back, he closed his eyes

5 Days Later-

Zoya sat smiling next to Noor, she lifted her arms and hugged her close

"Im so happy for you Noor" she smiled

Noor smiled back, though she wondered if Zoya would ever get her happiness to

"Ill be back, let me just help people with parking" she kissed her cheek and stood up quickly

She paused outside, closing her eyes, allowing the breeze to flow through her hair

She was nudged backwards, she opened her eyes and held her shoulder "ouch" she hissed

Her body froze as she heard "aankhon par pati hai kya" (Are you blindfolded)

That voice, the voice she had longed to hear for six months, the voice she had tried to forget but failed time and time again

She turned around quickly, sighing when she saw no one was there

"Bewaqoof Zoya" she laughed, shaking her head (Idiot)

He wouldn't be here, why would he be here?

She directed people to parking spaces, then walked back into the hall

XXX

Aditya walked towards the door, pushing it open, he looked around, his eyes met Harsh's, he stepped back angrily

He had no plans to drink today, but after seeing him here, he decided he needed a little alcohol

He moved toward the bar, leaning against it he smiled "Rum, on the rocks"

"A rum man, you take after me"

Aditya turned around quickly, facing Harsh, he scowled

"Just because I didnt get you arrested, doesnt mean I like you Mr Hooda, stay away from me"

Harsh laughed, stroking his stubble "Pooja says hi by the way"

Aditya tapped the bar "Keep it coming"
The bartender nodded

XXX

Aditya walked to the middle of the hall, he nodded at Arjun, then glared at Harsh

"Sunne Waalon Suno Aisa Bhi Hota Hai
Dil Deta Hai Jo Woh Jaan Bhi Khota Hai
Pyar Aisa Jo Karta Hai
Kya Mar Ke Bhi Marta Hai
Aao Tum Bhi Aaj Sun Lo"
(Hear hear, everyone, sometimes a thing like this also happens
The one who gives the heart, also looses his life
The one who loves in this manner
Does he die, even after death
Come and listen all about it today)

He stretched out his arm, grabbing a woman's arm, he spun them around

Zoya gasped, falling into his chest, she looked up

"Aditya"

He looked down at her, licking his lips he chuckled "Fancy seeing you here Zoya" he purred
