Zoya: Where is she?

Madhu: She is in her room, sleeping may be.

Zoya: Oh then I will talk with her in the morning.

Madhu: Okay now have the dinner first.

Zoya: Umm. I will just get fresh at first.

Madhu: Okay.

After the dinner, Zoya and Madhu went to their respective rooms.

Plz plz ignore the typos and grammar mistake as it is not checked. Sorry. 🙏🏻🙁

At Hooda House.

Aditya, Arjun and Anjana at the dining table, having their dinner. While eating, Arjun noticed Aditya was looking at the seat where Harsh would sit during the dinner. Arjun poked Anjana with the help of his elbow as she was sitting right beside him. Anjana questioned him by her eyes and Arjun replied by signing at Aditya who was looking at the chair.

Arjun deliberately asked Anjana: Ma, Paa aj Kanpur gaye hain na, kuch kaam ke liye?

Anjana understood and said: Uh Haan. Harsh to parso ayenge shayad.

Arjun: Oh

Aditya heard it and ate his dinner quietly and went to his room for a good sleep.

Arjun: Ma, Bhai still loves Paa. He just doesn't want to show anyone. You noticed na how he was looking at Paa's chair and was missing him?

Anjana nodded: Haan. After Harsh is his Paa. Dekhna Arjun, shayad koi na koi humare iss toota huya parivaar ko thik jod dega. Mera man keh raha hain. Mere Adi ke liye jo bana hoga wohi humara Parivaar ko ek kavaj ki tarha protect karega.

Arjun; I hope that day comes soon.

In Aditya's room.

Aditya was looking at the balcony and thinking about his father. When Zoya asked him about his father, a lot of flashbacks of happy moments came in his mind but that one day changed the whole relationship of a father and a son.

Aditya: No Adi, you should not forget all the things how Harshvardhan Hooda betrayed you, your mother and your brother, you should not. Then there was a knock on the door. Aditya wiped the taers which unintentionally flowed down and went to bed for a good sleep.

In Zoya's room. Zoya was still not asleep. Yes she always sleeps only after remembering her bitter past. The regret which she is carrying till now.

Flashback continues from chapter 2.

Pooja: It is 8:50. I need to attend my class.

Radhika, Rajveer and Yash: Yeah me too.

Aditya: Oh. Then you guys go. I have my next class at 9:30 so see you all at 11?

Rajveer: Okay. Then.

After all the classes, Pooja did not meet Aditya's group later as she was with Zoya all the time.

In the evening at Zoya's House.

Pooja: Zo, you cannot believe how Aditya caught me like a hero. O my God. He is such a charm. He is so so good looking. His chiselled jawline, muscular arms o my god. He is totally a chocolate boy.

Here Pooja was saying not so innocent things to Zoya, who was just listening or I say was bound to listen to her best friend's useless talkings.

At that very moment, Roshnaq came.

Pooja: Hello Aunty. How are you?

Roshnaq: I am good beta, how are you? And how is Sakshi ji?

Pooja: We are fine Aunty. Aunty I must say, your gajar ka halwa is the best in this whole world. When I will get married, I will learn the recipe so that I can serve it to my in laws.

Zoya giggled: Who is gonna marry you?

Pooja whined like a child: Aunty...

Roshnaq in a stern voice: Zoya.

Zoya: Okay Sorry baba.

Roshnaq: Okay. I came to tell you that we need to go Mussoorie as Zoya's Chaha is getting married.

Zoya: But Ma, my college have just started.

Roshnaq: Don't worry about college Zoya, your Abbu has arranged everything for that.

Zoya: Ahaaa. But how can you do this to me Ma.

Pooja: Arreh Zo. You are lucky na that you will travel and look into new places rather than being in a college. Btw Aunty, for how many days will you guys stay?

Roshnaq: May be 2 to 3 weeks.

Pooja: Aunty that is huge. How can I stay without Zo.

Roshnaq: Allah Jane jab app logo ki shaadi hogi tab app log kaha jayengi.

Pooja and Zoya laughed and gave a hi 5.

The next day.

Pooja: Zo. When you will reach Mussorie, plz call me once okay?

Zoya: Sure I will.

Sakshi to Roshnaq and Wasim: Bhai, Bhabi, plz take care of yourselves.

Wasim: G Sakshi Bhabi. We will.

Roshnaq: And we will try to come as soon as possible cuz we all know Zoya and Pooja can't stay longer without speaking their bickering together.

The trio laughed and Pooja last time hugged Zoya and bid bye to them.

Sakshi: Pooja, now quickly go to college. Otherwise, you will be late.

Pooja: Yes Ma.

In the college.
After Pooja's first class, she went to the canteen where Aditya's gang was sitting. No wonder, Pooja had a huge crush on Aditya.

Pooja: Hey.

Aditya, Radhika, Yash, Rajveer: Hey Pooja. Wassup.

Pooja: Nothing much.

Radhika: You look a bit sad.

Pooja: Yeah actually, Zoya, my best friend, she will not be in the city for 20 days.

Radhika: Ohho. That is so sad.

Pooja: BTW. How is everything going?

Rajveer: Upto now. It is fine. BTW did you heard about our new professor. By god. She is so strict.

Aditya: Yeah. And even I heard that our Principal is kind of flirting with her.

The group giggled.

Yash: Hush. The walls also have ears. If someone knows that we are talking about this, we will seriously get out of the college.

The group again laughed at talked about few things.

After 6 days in a call with Zoya.

Pooja: Hey Zoya. Wassup? How are you?

Zoya: I am fine. What about you?

Pooja: I am super fine. You know today Aditya wore a black t shirt and he was looking so hot.

Zoya: Poo. Like are you serious? App humesha Aditya ke baare mein hi kyun baat karti hain? Yeah I know you had a huge crush on him but....

Pooja: OK meri maa. Ab mujhe zyada gyan mat de. Tu ye bata tu kab aarhi hain?

Zoya: Bas 12 din baad.

Pooja: Air bhi 12 din? OK listen you have to come to the party.

Zoya: Which party?

Pooja: Oops. I forgot to tell you. On 23rd of this Month, Rajveer's birthday. So he invited all of us and including you.

Zoya: But I did not even meet them then how?

Pooja: Uhha. I don't wanna hear anything. You have to come means you have to come.

Zoya: Okay Fine.

Pooja: And you know then Aditya......

Zoya in her mind: Shuru ho gayi Aditya ki topic.

Everyday, Pooja would talk about Aditya with Zoya. Aditya did this, Aditya did that. But Zoya was bound to listen to these useless speech. Zoya thought Pooja started having some sort of feelings for Aditya.

But that day...........

Present time.

Her phone rang. She was a bit tensed by seeing the caller I'd.

Zoya: Hello. Is everything fine?

The caller: Yeah. I just wanted to know how are you beta?

Zoya: I am fine Aunty. How is she?

The caller: The same.

Zoya: Don't worry Aunty. I will fulfill my aim as soon as possible and after hearing it, she will be absolutely fine.

The caller: Hope so beta. Just always stay happy. My blessings are with you.

Zoya: Hmm. Aunty I am getting a call may I will talk to you later?

The caller: Hmm. Sure beta. Bye.

The call got disconnected.

Zoya in another call.

Noor: Hello Appi. How are you? You know how much I am missing you.

Zoya: Shant Shant hojaiye. Noor. First of all, I am fine. How are you and Ammi and Abbu? And I am missing you guys a lot.

Noor: Everyone is fine.

After a small chit chat session with Noor, Zoya slept as her head was aching a bit.

The next morning.

Aditya called Zoya at 8 o clock on Sunday.

Aditya: Hello. Zoya?

Zoya: Yes Sir.

Aditya: Sorry to disturb you on Sunday but we need to work on Sharma's project.

Zoya: Oh OK Sir.

Aditya: Don't worry it will be a half day.

Zoya a bit quietly but Aditya heard it.

Zoya: Thank God.

Aditya giggled a little.

Aditya: Now come to my home as the office remains close on Sunday.

Zoya: Okay Sir.

The phone got disconnected.

After getting fresh, Zoya head down for the breakfast but she does not see Mahi.

Madhu: Aunty. Mahi?

Madhu: Beta, she went to some friend's house.

Zoya: Oh. Aunty today I have a half day at office.

Madhu: Oh okay beta.

After the breakfast, Zoya set off for Hooda House.

After Aditya gets fresh, there is a knock on the door.

Aditya: Ma app?

Anjana: Why? Can't I come to my son's room now?

Aditya: Ma, you know nothing is like that.

Anjana entered the room and sat on the bed.

Anjana: So? How is your office going?

Aditya: It is going good Ma. And you know I have cracked the deal of Sharmas which was way more than impossible but it has only become possible because of Zoya.

Anjana: Zoya?

Aditya: Yeah. And she is coming today. In fact now. You can see her.

Arjun, who just came inside and heard the name: Zoya? Bhai.... How can you do this?

Aditya: What?

Arjun: I just heard Bhabi's name.

Aditya: Bhabi?

Arjun: Hann. Zoya Bhabi.

Aditya took the pillow from the bed and threw the pillow at Arjun which he caught and grinned.

Arjun: Bhai, at least you could have told me right?

Aditya: Chote, Zoya is not your Bhabi.

Arjun: Haan haan, aaj nahi to kal ho hi jayengi.

Aditya now started chasing Arjun while Arjun started running around the room, Arjun went downstairs. The elder brother is still chasing the younger.

Suddenly the calling bell rang.

Arjun: Bhai. Shayad Zoya BHABI ayi hain. I am gonna welcome her.

Aditya: Chote, Nahi. Don't open the door.

As Arjun opened the door, he saw a girl and asked.

Arjun: Zoya?

Aditya came and stood beside Arjun.

Aditya: Zoya.

Zoya to Arjun: Yeah. But how do you know me?

As Aditya was about to speak Arjun spoke up.

Arjun: Arreh Zoya Bhabi. I am your devar na. So I should know you right?

Zoya: Devar? Hum kuch samjhe nahi? App kehna kya chahrahe hain.

At that very moment, Anjana came and watched the whole scene.

As Aditya tried to speak again but Arjun again spoke up.

Arjun: See, you are now Adi Bhai's girlfriend and then after some time you will become my Bhabi right?

Zoya: Kya?

This time Aditya stopped Arjun by keeping his hand on Arjun's mouth.

Aditya: Kya bake jaa raha hain tu Arjun? Zoya meri nayi secretary hain.

Arjun: What?

Aditya: Yeah. And I was talking with Ma about how she handled one of my project.

Arjun: So why did not you tell this earlier?

Aditya: Tu mujhe baat karne de raha tha kya?

Zoya and Anjana both were watching the bickering of the Hooda brothers.

Arjun: Ohho. Zoya Bhabi. Oops Sorry. I mean Zoya. I am really sorry.

Zoya: It is okay.

Anjana: Ab usse andar to ane de.

Arjun: Oh haan. You come na.

Zoya entered the house.

Zoya: Namaste Aunty.

Anjana: Namaste beta. How are you?

Zoya: I am fine. How are you Aunty?

Anjana: I am also good. Come sit.

At that very moment, Aditya's phone rang.

Aditya: Excuse me.

Anjana made Zoya sit on the sofa.

Arjun also sat on the sofa.

Anjana: So. Zoya right?

Zoya: G Aunty.

Anjana: Tumhari Family mein kaun kaun hai?

Zoya: Main, meri choti behen, Ammi aur Abbu.

Anjana: Ooh.

Arjun: Apko choti behen ka naam kya hain?

Anjana: Arjun?

Arjun: Ma. Can't I just ask her sister's name? Do you mind Zoya?

Zoya: Not at all. Her name is Noor. Noor Siddique.

Arjun: Hmm Nice name.

Therefore the trio had a very good chat session.

When Aditya came after attending the call, he saw the three laughing on some topic.

Aditya cleared his throat to gain the attention.

Aditya: Zoya, let us do some work on the Sharma Project?

Zoya: Sure Sir.

Anjana: Arreh. Abhi abhi to Zoya ayi hain. Thoda rest to karle, phir kaam kar legi.

Aditya: Ma. She is my secretary. No your go...

As Aditya was about to speak, Arjun interrupted.

Arjun: Not your Bahu.

Aditya in a stern voice: Arjun. Will you plz stop?

Arjun: OK ok Sorry baba.

Aditya: Zoya. Come to study room.

Zoya: Yes Sir.

Zoya followed Aditya to the study room.

Anjana: Mujhe na Aditya ka name Kaam rakh a chaiye tha. Humasha Kaam aur Kaam.

Arjun: Huh. Bhai to bhai hain. Lekin Zoya acchi ladki hain na?

Anjana: Haan. Wo to hain. Zoya bohat acchi hain. Uska behaviour kitna sweet hain na?

Arjun: Haan.

In the study room.

Aditya started explaining and Zoya started to note down some things.

After 1 hour of discussion.

Aditya: And Mr. Sharma also....

At that very moment, Aditya and Zoya's attention went to a voice which was coming from downstairs.

The voice of a girl: Listen you can't stop me from going there. She is my Appi. I have rights to meet her.

Arjun: Listen I am telling you na that she is busy.

In the Study Room.

Zoya: Noor? Ye to Noor ka awaz hain.

Aditya: But why they are shouting. Come. Let's see.

Downstairs.

Noor: First of all ye Appi ka boss bada hi ajeeb insaan hain. Sunday pe kaun kaam karwata hain?

Arjun: Dekho. Tum na mere Bhai ke baare mein aisa nahi keh sakte OK?

Noor: Oh. To app Appi ke boss ke Bhai hain.

Arjun: Haan. Aditya Hooda ke Bhai, Arjun Hooda ka name nahi soona kya?

Noor: Aditya Hooda ka to soona hain lekin ye Arjun kaun hain?

Arjun: You are such a ridiculous person.

Noor: Haan haan. Jaise ap to Mahabharat ke Arjun hain na?

At that moment, Zoya and Aditya came downstairs.

Zoya: Noor. App yaha?

Noor turned towards Zoya.

Noor: Appi.

Noor ran and hugged her and broke the hug.

Noor: Appi. You know how much I missed you and this Arjun wasn't letting me go inside to meet you.

Arjun: I was just telling her that you are busy.

Zoya: Noor. Arjun is right. I was busy. But how did you came?

Noor: I wanted to surprise you by coming at Madhu Aunty's House. But when I went there, I got to know that you came here. Then, she also told me that you got a half day so I thought after finishing your work we will enjoy the whole day.

Zoya: But how come Abbu allowed you? Aur wo bhi ekele ayi hain app.

Noor: Appi. Ab na hum bade ho gaye hain. So It is not a problem.

Arjun: Haan. Bade ho kar bhi logo se kaise baat karte hain, madam ko ye nahi maloom.

Aditya: Arjun. Shut up.

Noor: Exactly. Appi. Ab app bataiye apka kaam kab tak khaitam hoga.

Zoya: Hojayega. App ghar jaiye. Hum ane hi wale hain thodi der baad. Shaam ko hum jayenge na. Ab ap jaiye.

Aditya: Noor. Main tumhare Appi ko bas 1 hour baad chod ne hi wala hoon. To agar tum chaho to tab tak yaha par Beth sakti ho. Mujhe koi problem nahi hain.

Noor: Arreh. App kitne acche hain. Thank you.

Zoya: But Sir...

Aditya: Zoya. No arguments. Your sister came to surprise you and you are neglecting her. That is not right.

Arjun: Hawwww. Bhai. Jab maine ap ko birthday par surprise diya tha tab to app bade keh rahe the ki "Nahi Arjun, mujhe kaam khatam karna hain and all." Ab kya se kya hogaya?

Aditya now gave a strong glare at Arjun.

Noor: Lekin mai yaha karunga kya?

Zoya in a stern voice: App yaha chup chap bethe rahengi. Thik hai? Agar ek aur bar koi tamasha kiya na to hum se boora koi nahi hoga.

Aditya was now admiring the strict Zoya.

Zoya: Sir. Will we first make the presentation or will I make some more points on it?

Aditya was lost in her.

Zoya: Sir.

Zoya waved hand in front of him and that he came from his lala land.

Aditya: Haan.

Zoya: Sir app kaha khoye huye the?

Aditya: Aa kahi nahi to. Tum kuch keh rahe the kya?

Zoya: Sir I was saying that Will we first make the presentation or will I make some more points on it?

Aditya: Make some points and then will start the presentation work.

Zoya: Okay Sir.

And they head to the study table for more works.

Meanwhile in the drawing room.

Noor: Kuch to gadbad hain.

Arjun: Mujhe bhi yahi lagta hain.

Noor: Arreh waah. Hum aur app ek baat pe hi kaise maan gaye.

Arjun: Uff tumse to baat hi karma bekar hain.

Noor: To kyun karte hain. Jaiye na. Apna kaam kijiye.

Arjun: Wahi karne jaa raha hoon.

With that Arjun also left for some work and Noor just sat on the sofa for some time talking with one of her friends. Anjana was also out for some work.

Aditya started to have some sort of feelings for Zoya. May be not. Or may be yes. Even Aditya don't know then how can I know. And Zoya's Maqsad will be revealed in the next chapter. I promise. Next chapter will be uploaded soon. Plz plz vote, comment and share the story. Comment down your views. Keep supporting. Stay happy. Stay safe. 😊♥️
