Chapter 16

"What is wrong with me ? " Adi face palms himself remembering his actions .

"What was the need Aditya to go tell her that She looks cute in Pjs ? " He questions himself pointing his index finger poking his heart.

"That's nothing..She looked cute and you wanted to praise ..That's it ! ..It is not a crime! " He assures himself stroking his heart.

"Let me sleep ..That would help me take my mind off things" He drops himself on the bed and closes his eyes ..The Flashes of the mini moment that they shared comes across his mind She under him Staring at him innocently with her hazel orbs nervously..Unknown to himself his lips hooks up in a smile ..His eyes shot open .

"What the hell are you thinking Aditya ?..She is nothing ..Nothing!!" He talks to himself hurriedly gulping down a glass of water which was placed in the nightstand.

I Was Serious When I Told I am Gonna try & steal you from him!, "You look cute in pj's with those Cinderella printed on it ". Aditya's word keeps ringing on Zoya's Mind Since the time She got up ..

She had made up her mind that He is just trying to play with her ..Just some fun with her..But her heart says something else .She Knows very well A Person like Aditya will never like a girl who is not of his status .

"He is just messing with you just to show Yash " This had been the 10th time Since She woken up She had been trying to assure herself .

"Zoya get me the sugar " Meena calls Zoya while working in the Kitchen.

Zoya who was lost in her thoughts absentmindedly gives her the salt ..

Meena without checking on the container ends up putting salt in Halwa She had been making.

"Oh My God " Meena Shouts checking the container slapping her forehead .

"Zoya" Meena shouts glaring at her

Zoya thoughts halt and her stupor breaks hearing Meena's Shouts .

"Maa What Happened ?" She asks her innocently seeing the way her Maa is glaring at her .

"What did I ask you to get me ?" Meena asks with her hands on her hips .

"Sugar"

"Then What's this ?" Meena shows the Salt container making Zoya bites her tongue .

giving her a Sheepish smile "Sorry " She says quickly and trots from that place mentally scolding herself .

She bumps onto Yash making him fall flat on his butt .."Aah " Yash yelps in pain sending daggers at her ..Zoya gives him a lopsided grin and clicks her tongue.

"Are you blind?" Yash shouts standing up rubbing his butt..

"I am not ..It was you who had your eyes behind not me" Zoya yells at Yash tying her arms across her chest.

"Now I am wrong!" Yash snaps at her..Zoya gives him a nod as Yash gives her ARE-YOU-SERIOUS Look..

"Are you flustered with his words ?" Yash questions her absentmindedly Zoya ends up nodding .

"Don't be ! " He almost ends up yelling making her vaguely understand what She had done

"No no I am not " Zoya tells hurriedly more than Telling Yash She was trying to assure herself ."You are" Whispers her heart while her mind questions herself "Am I ?. Zoya sighs closing her eyes , She herself is not Sure what's happening to her.

"Pooja is the only special person in her life who Aditya cares & likes " Yash drops the bomb making Zoya snap open her eyes .

"It has nothing to do with me and I am NOT affected by his WORDS" Zoya answers back ..Pooja is the person He likes He is JUST messing around with me !! Zoya concludes her thoughts ..

"Sweetheart talking about Me " Aditya walks in hearing his name been said .

Zoya widens her eyes hearing his sweet endearment..

"Sweetheart!" Yash snaps at him.

"Sweetheart " Adi gives him a sickly smile and moves forward and putting his arms around Zoya's shoulder making Yash send smoke out of his ears..

"Take your hands off her ! " Yash tells fuming pointing her index finger signing him.

"Let her Tell !!" Adi smirks grinning

."Zoya !" Yash eyes her to tell him..

"Aah !" Zoya stutters as her daze breaks She had been lost for the time being hearing him call her sweetheart .

"Zoya" Yash says more shocked remembering how She had whacked him & twisted his hands when He had called her Darling & Tried to touch her hand .

Zoya looks at him clueless..Feeling someone soothing her shoulder She Looks to her right side to find a hand shocked She turns to her left to Find Aditya dangerously close to her face..inches apart Staring at her with a lovely grin .

."Lovely ? , Seriously Zoya' her mind questions .."Yes it is " her heart leaves a dreamy sigh .."He is smirking not grinning " her mind snaps back .."He is giving a grin ..That too a lovely one " her heart leaves another sigh cupping it's cheeks .."have you got cheeks to cup ? " again her brain snaps at her heart...."Yes I've got !!" Her heart snaps back and goes back to it's work..i.e. Looking naah Staring at him without moving her eyes off .."His smile is so infectious !" Her heart leaves another sigh .."You stupid heart stop poking the great mind aka I am with your illogical reasoning He is smirking.

." Again her minds snaps at her heart ...."You bloody brain stop confusing her He is grinning at her ..That too a lovely one "Again her heart leaves a dreamy sigh .."No no no !!" Shouts her brain.

"Stop it " Zoya yells closing her eyes .Zoya peeks opens her eyes embarrassed hearing Aditya chuckle at her while Yash gives her a ARE-YOU-CRAZY Look.

"You are not affecting me Jahanpannah ..you are not ..your smile is the ugliest. yes it is ugly !!" Zoya mutters hurriedly and runs away from that place whereas Adi and Yash stood shocked hearing her blabbering.

Yash sighs and chuckles turning to Aditya as Her words dropped in his mind .

"You heard her ..Didn't you ? " Yash laughs standing in front of him ..

"Stay away from her !" Yash warns Aditya ..

Adi smirks looking at him "She is crazy !! " Adi Shakes his head smiling and leaves the place .Yash looks at the direction of Both went flabbergasted,

Adi dives himself in the pool all the while smile never leaving his face remembering Zoya's expressive face which is Like a F1 track which runs with multiple thoughts at times . Zoya peeks though to check whether He is swimming naked ..She leaves a sigh seeing him on his suits .

"Jahanpannah " She yells standing in front of him with her hands on her hands .

"Why Darling?" He asks flirting back making her Gape at him .

"Stop that !" She yells throwing her hands up in the air pissed more than pissed Flustered trying to hide her blush ..

"Why are you blushing darling?" He flirts back playing with the water

. "I am Not ! " She tells him trying to maintain but She ends up blushing more . He chuckles looking at her ..

"Stop blushing you idiot " her minds snaps at Zoya while her heart which was pumping blood halts it's work and interjects it's thoughts "She will blush ..Stop controlling her, you stupid mind " her heart yells at her pissed.."She Will Not..I am her brain..The Genius Brain She has to Follow my order !!"..."I am The Great Heart I giving better advices !!" her heart answers back and continues its side work of poking her to continue with her blush "You heart go plump blood without putting ideas " her brain yells pissed seeing the way that stupid heart is insulting the brain !! ..

Zoya closes her eyes trying to fight the urge of strangling her heart and her brain which is all the more confusing her.

"What is your mind telling that your expressions are changing in milliseconds ?" Adi asks curiously seeing the way her face is changing from time to time.

Zoya takes a deep breath And Decides to ask him straightaway "Let's swim together !"

"What?" Adi asks her shocked and surprised about her declaration.

."What's wrong in that you Like me don't you ?"

"I am Naked!! " Adi answers her back .

"Then Let's swim together naked!! " She tells him as if it is not a big deal ..

He gapes his eyes widening in horrified ..

"Are you crazy ? He snaps at her .

"You Like me , you are planning to steal me so what's the big deal " She shrugs her shoulders

He looks at her shocked while Zoya continues "Can you say that you like me in Front of Pooja? ,You Like Pooja ..But Pooja likes Yash..Already you are in a complicated love triangle Why are you trying to pull me in the mix and trying to make a Love quadrilateral " Zoya asks him getting straight into the point .

" Because Complicated Relationships are my hobby " Adi answers back Looking intently at her.

"I am Naked Get Lost !!" He snaps at her still not reeling from the shock .

Zoya chuckles tying her hands across her chest She looks at him .He strides out of the pool wondering why Shei s not running away and moves forward . Getting Serious She tells him once He is out of the pool

" Aditya think twice before you do something ..you might end up hurting someone who are close to you or in second thoughts you would be the person to get hurt in the end " and leaves the place as He keeps looking at her retreating figure trying to process her words .
