While Zoya was about to go, Aditya hold her hands.

Zoya gave a questioning look.

Aditya: Thank you.

Zoya: Kis liye?

Aditya: WO nurse ne mujhe bataya how you continuously prayed for me.

Zoya just shifted her eyes and Aditya also left her hands. Zoya left the room. Then everyone came and met to him.

Onwards Anjana, Arjun, Harsh, Virani, Kalpesh one by one came to see Aditya.

Outside Aditya's cabin.

Doctor: One should stay at least 3 days with him in the hospital for the proper care.

Zoya: I will stay with him.

Anjana: No. Zoya beta. I will stay with him. Yous should go to home.

Harsh: No. Nor Anjana neither Zoya will stay. I am gonna stay with him.

Kalpesh: No. I will stay with Adi.

Arjun: Plz you guys stop. Me, Zoya Bhabi and Noor will stay with Aditya cuz Wasim uncle and Roshnaq aunty is not at home so Noor almost has no work.

Harsh: Noor do you have any problem?

Noor: Not at all uncle. Even I would love to stay here.

Virani: Okay then. So we will leave now.

Zoya went to the doctor to make sure about all the medicines and all. While Noor and Arjun stayed in the hospital.

In the hospital after everyone left.

Noor: Aj ke baad ye sabit ho hi gaya ki Appi love Aditya jiju. And Arjun did you notice how Appi was referring Jiju as hers.

Arjun: Hmm. Ab bas ek kam reh gaya.

Noor: Kya?

Arjun: Ab Hume Zoya bhabi ko realise karwana hoga that she loves Bhai.

Noor: Hmm. Hope for the best.

In Aditya's cabin.

Aditya in his mind: Why Zoya behaved like this? She was tensed and her eyes. Her eyes were puffy and red. For how long was she crying? Her eyes had lots of untold emotions. Were those for me?

There were a lot of questions in Aditya's mind. His trances broke when he heard a click sound of door opening. Arjun and Noor came.

Noor: Jiju. Ab apki tabiyat kaisa hain?

Aditya replied with a smile: Ab accha hain.

Aditya: Where is Zoya?

Arjun: Bhai, Bhabi wo medicines ke baare mein Doctor se baat karne gayi hain.

Aditya: Oh.

At that time, Zoya entered.

Noor: WO rahi Appi.

Zoya: Aa kuch chaiye tha?

Arjun: Haan. Wo bhai apko bula rahe the.

Aditya: Haan. Matlab nahi. Wo wo mujhe bhook laga hain.

Aditya made up an excuse cuz even he was confused why he called Zoya.

Zoya: Oh. To main khana le kar ati hoon.

Aditya: Hospital ka?

Zoya in a sarcastic tone: Nahi nahi janab Aditya Hooda. To main na ek kam karti hoon. Main apke liye hotel se khana le kar ati hoon. Okay?

Aditya just rolled his eyes while Noor and Arjun were giggling.

Aditya looking at Noor: Sali saheba ab app hi apne Appi ko kuch kahiye.

Noor: Jiju. Main aj apka saath nahi de sakti. Sorry.

Aditya: Arjun?

Arjun: Bhai. Main to adopted hoon na?

Aditya: Kisne kaha tujhe? Ye jhut hain. Tu mera apna bhai hain. Plz mujhe bacha le.

Zoya in a stern voice: Bohat hua natak. Main jo laungi apko wohi khana padega.

Aditya just bowed his head in an acceptable way.

Zoya then left to bring food for him while Aditya was glaring at Arjun and Noor.

Aditya to Arjun: Tu sachme mera sautela bhai hain.

Arjun scoffed while Noor chuckled.

After 15min Zoya came with the tray of soup without salt and salad and fruit juice.

Aditya scrunched his nose by seeing at the food.

Aditya's right hand was bangdage that is why someone had to feed him.

Zoya was confused whether to feed him or not. Arjun understood it and pretended that he had a call.

Arjun: I have to call Wasim uncle and Roshnaq aunty. Noor you also wanted to talk with them r8?

Noor: Aaa aisa kya?

Arjun pinched Noor's back side of her hand.

Noor: Oh haan.

Zoya: Lekin Noor.

Noor: Appi. Hum abhi aye. Ap tab tak Jiju ko khila dijiye.

With that Arjun and Noor left the room.

Zoya took a spoon of soup and forwarded it to Aditya's mouth.

Aditya scoffed.

Zoya in a stern voice: Aditya.

Aditya: Yeah yeah fine.

Aditya opened his mouth and sipped the soup.

Aditya: Zoya.

Zoya: Hmm.

Aditya: Tum aa tum thik ho na. Mera matlab main iss accident aa.

Zoya: Main thik hoon Aditya. And I know that iss accident ke baad hum logo ke upar se kya guz ra hain. Ma, Paa, Arjun, Chachu, Kalpesh, Sagarika Bhabi, Sunny. Sab log bohat tensed the.

Aditya: Aur tum?

Zoya: Aaa main wo. Ap pehle ye khana finish ki jiye.

Aditya: Zoya.

Zoya: Aditya. Hume apke nakhre samajh mein aa rahi hain. Ap khana nahi chahte iss liye app Hume baton me ulajhna chahte hain na?

Without saying anything Zoya forcefully put a spoon in his mouth.

Zoya: Ab aur kuch baat nahi. Ab app dinner ke baad, you will get to sleep. Okay?

Aditya: Hmm.

Zoya: And apka question tha na ki hum matlab wo Jo kuch.

Aditya: Hmm.

Zoya: Uska answer ye hain ki hum sirf dosti ke farz nibha rahe hain. Ab hum to apko dost mante hain na isiliye.

Zoya said this not maintaining an eye contact with him.

Aditya just smiled at her.

After the dinner, Aditya slept and Zoya slept on the sofa while she allowed Arjun and Noor to go for a night walk as they were also very stressed about Aditya.

After some time Zoya also fell asleep on the couch in a sitting position. There were 3 couches to be settled in total. Later, Noor and Arjun also fell asleep on the other 2 couches.

The first two days in hospital, every family member came to visit Aditya. Zoya really took care of Aditya whole heartedly. While the family members could see Zoya's care and love for Aditya but Zoya's mind is still stuck at friendship.

The 3rd day in hospital.
In the morning, Aditya was having his breakfast with the help of Zoya's hands.

Aditya: Bas. Aur nahi.

Zoya: Aditya, you ate only 5 spoons of soup.

Aditya: Haan. Lekin ek baat to hain. Mujhe to aisa hi lagraha hai jaise tum mere Sach much ke biwi ho Jo mera itna khayal rakh raha hain.

Zoya: Kuch to waisa Hume bhi lag raha hain.

They just giggled while Arjun entered in the cabin.

Arjun: Bhai. Today you are gonna go home.

Aditya: Kaash. Otherwise I would have been dead by eating this non salt soup and salad.

Zoya then fed Aditya and in the evening Zoya, Aditya and Arjun set off for Hooda Mansion while Noor set off for Siddique House as Wasim and Roshnaq were home.

The family welcomed them. 

Anjana: Zoya, take Aditya to the room.

Zoya: Okay Ma.

Aditya: What okay? No no. I will just sit in the living room.

Everybody chuckled while Zoya tapped her palms on her forhead.

The family sat there for an evening talk.

Zoya: I will just make coffee and snacks for you all.

Sagarika: Zoya. I will also join you.

Zoya: Okay Bhabi.

In the kitchen.
Sagarika: Zoya, how did you and Aditya fall for each other. I mean how did you guys made up through an arrange marriage?

Zoya: Aa actually Aditya is a very good and kind person that is why.

Sagarika: Oh. But I must say he is a lucky guy that he has a wife like you. May God bless you both.

Zoya just passed a smile.

In the living room the family had an amazing gossip, fun.

They heard a door bell.
Zoya: I will just see who is at the door.

Zoya opened the door: Ammi, Abbu.

She hugged her parents.

The rest of the family greeted them.

Roshnaq: Adi beta. How are you now? Noor told about the accident today. How is your health?

Aditya: I am fine Ammi. Don't worry.

Wasim: But how did this happen?

Harsh: Aa it was an accident na.

Wasim: Oh.

Wasim and Roshnaq joined their evening talk while Adiya, Arnoor, Kalpesh, Sagarika, Sunny went to the terrace for a gossip.

After the dinner the Siddiques left for their home while the Hoodas went to their respective rooms for a good sleep.

In Aditya's room.

Zoya made Aditya eat the medicines.

Aditya: Bas. Not any more.

Zoya: This is the last one I swear.

Aditya had the medicine.

Zoya: Done.

Aditya: Accha Zoya. I have talked with the lawyer about the divorce papers cuz he told me that you need to apply for divorce at least 1 month before. And I am sure that may be we will manage our parents in this one month.

Zoya: Hmm.

Aditya: Are you not happy?

Zoya gave a fake smile: Yeah yeah. I am very happy that finally I am gonna get rid of you.

Aditya laughed as well as Zoya gave a sad chuckle. Zoya was totally messed up. Whenever Aditya would talk something about their separation, Zoya's heart would broke into pieces. But Zoya would just shrugged the thoughts thinking "Jo hoga dekha jayega".

After 5 days, the Viranis also bid a bye to the Hooda Family and left for London and Aditya was also getting better day by day as Zoya and Anjana took care of him.

After 7 days of Aditya's accident.
In the afternoon at Hooda Office.

Aditya entered Harsh's cabin.

Aditya: Papa may I come in?

Harsh: Yes beta.

Aditya: Papa you called me. Is there any urgency?

Harsh: Adi. Actually your accident was planned.

Aditya: By whom?

Harsh: By Rajveer.

Aditya: But where Rajveer came from all of a sudden. We are not in a contact for about 2 years now.

Harsh: Adi. He is the owner of Khanna Industries. I did not knew at first cuz I only used to meet his secretary before I signed for the deal.

Aditya: But what he wants now?

Harsh: He wants 55 percent of profit from the partnership deal. I don't know why he is doing this. I just knew that you guys had some problem and did not talk with each other for a long time.

Aditya: Can't we cancel the deal?

Harsh: We can but there will be a loss.

Aditya: Papa if we get 45 percent of profit then we will still be in loss.

Harsh: But what about that accident?

Aditya: Did the police had any solid proof?

Harsh: No. That is why they are not able to arrest him. Even the truck driver died.

Aditya: Papa. Don't worry. I will manage everything.

Harsh: Hmm. And BTW I forgot to tell you that today evening there is a business party. You and Zoya need to come there.

Aditya: Papa Zoya also?

Harsh: Hmm cuz I am not going there as I have to handle the Sharma's files.

Aditya: Oh okay.
