In Jaipur.

Aditya in his mind: At first I need to be confirmed that Zoya have some feelings for me. I feel that she has. I feel it. I will not give up on my love. No. I will try till the last breath.

Aditya totally made up his mind that he will be sure at first then he will confess cuz he did not want Zoya to be in guilt but somewhere in his heart he knew that she loves him. That little hope made his confidence level into 100.
........................................................................

In the evening.

In Zoya's room.

While Zoya was wearing her earrings, she was drowned in thinking about Aditya.

Zoya in her mind: Why did I imagine Aditya when he said me to imagine which make me feel relieved. Why am I getting attracted towards him. Why do I care if he is hurt. No Zoya. You should not care. You just need to take the revenge for Pooja. You know na that Pooja is only in this state for Aditya Hooda. You need to ruin him completely.

Then her phone rang. It was Sakshi, Pooja's mother.

Zoya: Hello Aunty. How are you? How is Pooja?

Sakshi: I am fine beta. And I called you for Pooja. You know what? Pooja blinked and made a movement in hands today.

Zoya's happiness had no limit.

Zoya: Sach mein Aunty.

Sakshi: Yes Zoya. And even Doctor said that if she responses like this day by day then she will be fine soon.

Zoya: Yes Aunty. I know, Poo will be fine soon.

Sakshi: Hmm. Zoya, how are you beta? How is everything?

Zoya: Everything is fine Aunty. And I am working on it. I mean about Aditya.

Sakshi: Don't get in trouble Zoya. Don't take such risks.

Zoya: Aunty don't worry about me. You just take care of Pooja.

Sakshi: Hmm.

There was a knock in Zoya's room.

Zoya: Aunty, someone came. May I call you later?

Sakshi: Sure beta.

Zoya: Bye Aunty. Take care.

Sakshi: Bye Zoya. You also take care.

The phone got disconnected.

Zoya wore the earrings properly and went to open the door.

There she was, wearing a white outfit looking extremely gorgeous.

Aditya murmured: Beautiful.

Zoya: Huh? You said something?

Aditya: Nahi to. Are you ready?

Zoya: Umm yeah. Just a sec.

Zoya went and brought her purse.

Zoya: Yes Sir. Now I am ready. Let's go?

Aditya: Hmm.

Aditya and Zoya got into the car. Zoya went to seat on passenger's seat but Aditya whispered to her.

Aditya: It will not look good if you seat near a passenger seat. You sit behind, I will seat on the front seat.

Zoya: Umm. No Sir. Why will you...

Aditya: Zoya I said na it is fine. Now get fast otherwise we will get late.

Zoya nodded and sat behind while Aditya sat on the front seat.

Zoya was surprised would be an understatement.

Zoya in her mind: I just can't understand why is he acting so much? Or is this all care and respect real? No. It can't happen. Zoya. Pehli hi apne apna impression bohat kharab kar chuki hain Aditya ke saamne. Ab tak to wo hume nafrat kar rahe honge shayad isiliye itna care karke humara guilt aur barha rahe hain. Ab hume sirf aur sirf apne Maqsad par kaam karma hoga. Aur Aditya ko mujhe propose karwana hoga.

Zoya made this decision on the way to the venue.

Finally they reached.

Aditya opened the Zoya's door and helped her to get out from the car.

For a moment Zoya almost forgot why she was here with him. Zoya was very much overwhelmed by the gesture from Aditya.

Zoya got out from the car and went towards the hall with Aditya. Soon many of the business partners gathered around Aditya Hooda.

As Aditya made a small talk with them, Mr. Sharma came to welcome him.

Mr. Sharma: I am glad that you came Mr. Hooda.

Aditya: My pleasure Mr. Sharma.

Mr. Sharma and Aditya made a small talk about the business while Zoya was listening to them being bored.

Mr. Sharma: Okay Mr. Hooda and Miss Siddique. Enjoy the party.

Aditya and Zoya just passed a smile.

Aditya then noticed Zoya's face and realized that she was getting bored.

Aditya: Are you bored?

Zoya diverted her eyes to Aditya from the floor.

Zoya: No Sir. I am fine.

Aditya: Hmm I can see that.

Then Mr. Sharma's daughter Natasha came towards Aditya.

Natasha: Hey Adi.

Aditya: Hi Natasha. How are you? Long time we did not see each other.

Natasha: Yeah. Probably for the busy schedules we have.

Aditya: Yeah.

Natasha: Well I was getting bored. May I have a dance with you if you don't mind?

Aditya looked at Zoya who was just using her phone scrolling something.

Aditya: Umm Sure.

Aditya in his mind: In Arjun's logic if Zoya can't tolerate me dancing with other girl then she will react.

Aditya hold Natasha's hand which took Zoya's attention and they head to the dance floor.

Zoya in her mind: What the hell? Why Aditya is dancing with this girl.

Her inner feelings: Are you jealous?

Zoya to her inner feelings: Obviously not. I am just worried that Aditya kahi uss Natasha ke saath na settle ho jaye.

Her inner feelings: Then what are you waiting for? Chal jaldi.

Zoya made her way to the dance floor but a guy just came forward.

The guy: Hey I am Sidharth. You can call me Sid.

Zoya just gave a questioning look.

Sid: Your name?

Zoya: Zoya.

Sid: Ooh. Beautiful lady with a beautiful name. May I have a dance with this beautiful lady?

Zoya: Umm no thnx.

Zoya was about to go but Sid hold her hand.

Sid: Areh darling. Itna jaldi bhi kya hai?

Sid hold her hand and drag her to the corner of the huge hall. Zoya tried to shout a lot but was failed because of the loud noise.

Sid took her in an isolated area which was behind the hall.

Zoya (with a broken voice): Listen. You don't know who I am.

Sid: Then tell na who you are?

Sid came forwards and Zoya was just moving backwards and finally hit the wall.

Zoya (panicking plus crying): If something happens to me, then you will not be spared.

Sid: Oh baby. Come on. Just give me one night. I am even ready to pay for it.

Zoya could not control herself and just slapped him.

Zoya (crying): How can even people like you stoop so low.

Sid hold her hands and was about to slap her. Due to fair Zoya closed her eyes but she did not felt any touch on her cheek so opened her eyes only to be witnessed, Aditya holding Sid's hand.

Aditya's boil was just boiling: How dare you bloody a***ole.

Aditya punched Sid's jaw so bad that it started to bleed.

Zoya quickly stood behind Aditya.

Aditya moved forward and started to beat Sid so bad that he was literally begging him to let him go.

Aditya, while punching, he took Sid to the main hall. People gathered around him.

Mr. Sharma: Mr. Aditya. Plz leave him.

Aditya still did not listen to anyone. He was merciless today.

Aditya: How dare he touched her. How dare he tried to touch My Zoya.

Mr. Sharma to Zoya: Miss. Siddique plz stop him. Plz.

Zoya nodded and just walked to Aditya: Sir. Plz leave him. Plz.

Aditya was about to punch but stopped hearing Zoya's voice.

Aditya stopped and stood up.

Sid talking with pain in his voice: Itna tashan, itna junoor kis baat ka haan? Agar isse chu bhi loon to tujhe itna kyun farak padta hain? Kya lagti kya hai ye Tera?

Aditya literally screamed: SHE IS MY EVERYTHING.

Zoya was taken aback due to this Confession.

Zoya in her mind: What did he just say?

Her inner feelings: That you are his everything and that clearly means that he loves you Zoya.

Sid still maneged to talk: Oh. To pyar ke liye itna junoon haan.

Aditya hold Sid's collar and said: Just shut you mouth.

Aditya left his collar and said: Mr. Sharma. How can be your guest like this?

Mr. Sharma: I am so sorry Miss. Siddique and Mr. Hooda. I will take care of it. I am sorry.

Aditya hold Zoya's hands and just dragged her outside the hall in a lawn.

Aditya ran his hands through his hairs and just scolded Zoya: Couldn't you be with me all the time?

Zoya whose eyes were just swollen due to crying: You, you left me.

Aditya then remembered that he went for a dance with Natasha.

Aditya then silently said: I. I am sorry. I should not have shouted on you. Sorry.

Zoya just hugged him.

For some time Zoya totally forgot about her Maqsad, about her aim to come in Mumbai, about everything. It was only them, Zoya and Aditya.

Aditya in soft yet broken voice: Zoya. Agar ajj tumhe kuch ho jaata main kabhi apne app ko maaf nahi kar paata. Zoya you (sighs) you mean everything to me.

Zoya just raised his head which was on Aditya's chest.

Aditya looked in her eyes and just said it: Yes Zoya. Ho gayi hain. Beshumaar, beyhadh, bepannah mohabbat ho gayi hain. I am in love with you.

Zoya: Aap ye.. ye kya keh rahe hain?

Aditya: Zoya pehle bhi mujhe attraction lagta tha lekin kab attraction pyaar mein badal gayi mujhe nahi maloom. Main tumhari dil ko baat to nahi jaanta Zoya lekin I somewhere feel that you have sort of feelings for me. It is totally up to you. I will not force you Zoya.

Aditya's hold loosen and was about to go when Zoya hold his hand and just hugged him and cried.

Aditya hugs her back.

Aditya whispered: It is okay. Calm down. Let us go.

Aditya made Zoya sit in the car.

During the journey, Zoya's head was on Aditya's shoulder. And his head was over hers. There were just silence.

After they reached the hotel.

Aditya: Zoya.

Zoya: Hmm.

Aditya: We have reached.

Zoya nodded and they got out from the car. Outside Zoya's room.

Aditya: You go inside and take some rest. If you need something then you can call me. Hmm?

Zoya nodded and just went inside the her room while Aditya also went inside his room.

Aditya just went to his room and just sat on the bed.

Aditya in his mind: In a matter of seconds, I just know what happened. Huh.

In Zoya's room.

Zoya in her mind: Aditya kyun humare jaan bacha te hain. Humesha. Agar ajj wo sahi time mein nahi ate to shayad hum aaj....(crying).

Zoya: Lekin wo humse pyaar karte hain, hume aisa kyun laga ki wo sab Sach.. Nahi nahi Zoya. Ye app kaisi baate kar rahi hain. Apko yaad nahi ki unhone Pooja ke saath kya kiya. Ek insaan bhale hi kitna bhale ho jaye unka paap kabhi nahi mit ta. Aur Zoya apne 5 saal pehle Sakshi Aunty se wada kiya tha ki ap Pooja ko justice dilwayenge. Apko wo waada nibha na hoga.

Zoya wiped her tears: Aditya ke iss nakli pyaar ke jaal mein hum nahi fasne wale. Hum unheki nakli pyaar mein unhehi fasayenge. Wo jitna hi hume bacha le, hum unhe kabhi bhi maaf nahi karenge.

With that Zoya made up her that whatever happens he will not forgive Aditya even if he shows her his so called fake love. But little did she knew that how much Aditya fell for her. How he was ready to give his heart to her.
