Everyone in the room was stunned. Aditya was shocked and couldn't speak a word. Zoya broke the silence with her crisp and curt voice which was missing for days now. She said 'Inspector , what do you mean by harassing this lady.'
The stranger lady cried out and said 'I'll tell you what it means. It means he slept with me in the pretext of marrying me two months back. Now I am going to have his child and he was nowhere to be found. I want justice and I shall have it.'
Zoya turned to Aditya and asked him 'Are the allegations made by this lady here true Aditya?'
The lady interrupted and said 'If I am here to validate this story why on earth do you have to ask him. Inspector , please arrest him.'
Zoya raised her finger and and stopped the lady from screaming. Her eyes were just fixed on Aditya and she asked again 'Is this true Aditya ?'
Adi said 'No , it's not. I have never seen this woman in my entire life. She is making up things against me.'
Zoya said 'Look into my eyes and tell me it's not true. Aditya looked into her eyes and said 'This is a false allegation Zoya .'
Zoya turned back to the inspector and said 'If Aditya says it's not true then it isn't.'

The inspector said 'We will have to go to the court to settle this.'
Zoya said 'The court demands proof I guess. And apart from this lady's statement you don't have any proof.'
The lady smirked and said 'I have a proof and it is enough to prove Aditya Hooda wrong .'
She fished out a mobile from her purse and played a video. She and Aditya were having an intimate moment in that video. She said 'So , Miss Zoya Siddiquie, is this enough.?'
Zoya said 'I don't believe this. I trust Aditya and I know he is telling the truth.'
Mr.Sharma intervened and said 'Zoya  why are you supporting a man who is wrong. The video is enough proof.'
Zoya said 'This man here saved my life , he stood up for me and has been a best friend to me. Videos can be fabricated but I have full faith in his words. Mr.Sharma , just give me some time and I will show it to you that Adi is right and is being framed. Consider this like a business deal I have to crack and trust me I never place my bets on stocks that will never rise.'

She said to the inspector 'Before going to the court I would like to call my lawyer , doctor and a techie.'
The inspector said 'Why?'
She said 'My doctor will get a DNA test done and the techie will check this video. After that if I am proven wrong I will happily go to court and fight this case.'
The lady said 'Or you could leave all this and do an out of court settlement. I will name a price and you could give it to me and we will leave this matter here.'
Zoya smiled 'Oh No.  We will do this my way.'
She called her doctor , lawyer and her techie. They all arrived and the investigation began. The blood samples were taken and sent to the lab and on Zoya's orders the results were to be hurried and given to her by midnight. Hours passed and both the doctor and the techie exclaimed at the same time 'It's a false allegation.'
The doctor said the DNA sequence didn't match and the techie explained how the video was a morphed one.
The lady stood embarrassed and Zoya walked up to her and said 'What an easy way to earn money. Grab a target . Plant some false accusations and then demand money from them. People like you disgust me. I don't know who sent you here but I know one thing that next time you come in front of Aditya I swear I will make your life hell. And mark my words , Zoya Siddiquie does what she says. Now get out of my house before I call the cops and get you arrested for forgery.'

They went and Aditya came to Zoya and said 'Could I talk to you for a moment. Alone?'
Zoya said 'Just a minute Adi". She turned to Mr.Sharma and said
"Mr.Sharma we have all had a long day today and we need to prepare for the wedding too. So let's call it a night shall we?'
Mr.Sharma agreed. Abhimanyu gave Zoya a goodbye hug and everyone left.
Zoya said 'Adi , you wanted to say something.?'
He came and hugged her tightly. He held her like he was going to lose her if he let go. She hugged him back. They spent five blissful minutes and then Aditya let go of the hug.They were standing really close to each other. Both could count the eyelashes of each other. They realised their proximity but neither of them moved an inch behind. Tears were streaking Zoya's face. Aditya came closer. Their nose touched and he gently kissed her tears.She didn't resist.She just saw Aditya's face and traced the lines on his face looks lightly with her hands as if she wanted to remember them forever. They spent the entire night like that. Standing silently, one kissing the others tears away slowly and softly. At the crack of dawn Zoya said with a heavy heart 'Aditya, it's time for you to begin my  wedding preparations. I just wish we had met in some other world , in some other situation and some other time, that would have been nice. I am sorry.'
She turned away and went leaving Aditya rooted on the spot , he just whispered as he saw her leaving  'I am sorry too.'
