Chapter 4

Zoya sits on a bench in the park which is isolated with no one around .She thinks deeply about the incidents which happened an hour ago .She went home as usual and was about to retire to her room but was pulled back by her step mom and step sister who had started calling her names unable to take it more She had left her place thinking to find a place to sleepover .She had called Noor to find out that She had been leaving to her native place tonight and will come back after a week and Noor had started bickering something about Arjun , Who She is fan girling, currently but Zoya had not given her ears to and had ended the call abruptly. She was sad why couldn't they accept her? What was her fault in this ? She knew when her father married Madhu She would be treated indifferently yet She thought that She could become a part of their family but .

Aditya Takes his sit on another bench sideways from where Zoya was sitting lost in her thoughts .

Adi closes his eyes due to the weariness thinking about the incidents

"You have to come back to the mansion Adi" Dada orders

"I WILL NOT" Adi replies enraged .

His words echoed across the empty office "You will ..You should" He replies sternly as Adi glared at him

"If not I'll cut off from the will"

Adi lets out a laugh "It does not make any difference ..I always wanted to be back to my past life so I would be willingly go away "

Parth let out a sarcastic laugh "It Would not be easy my boy ..Come Back ..."

Adi leaves the place pushing away the chairs on his way . He had gone to his studio to collect his things but was informed that they had fired him from the job as Mr.Hooda had threatened to close down the studio. His friends who He had thought would give a hand had left his hand and had join hands with Mr.Hooda because He had paid off all their debts leaving Adi in the roads .The Hotel Room which He had been currently staying is told to be vacated immediately when He went there . His wallet that had been taken away by Mohan unknown to him in the process during his argument with Mr.Hooda..

Zoya closes her eyes in fear seeing a figure hovering over hear

"Bhooth ...Bhoooth" She shouts closing her eyes with her little palms

Sensing that the Bhooth is not trying to swallow her . She moves two fingers away . Seeing through the small hole to see a rather a man with brown orbs staring at her . She shouts more

"Bhoothh......" and pushes him away and starts screaming again "Bhoothhhhhhh...bhoooooooooooooothhhh"

"Aahhhh" She hears the bhooth scream in pain .Wait a minute if it was a bhooth how can it pain him ? Zoya wonders and turns around with wide eyes to see the bhooth glaring at her

She gapes loudly as the Bhooth was Aditya "..Ad..ith...ya..." She breathes out

He glunches with his scrutinizing eyes "You" He points his index finger at her furiously getting up cleaning away the dirt

"What is with you and your hand ?" He asks her enraged as Zoya gives a sheepish smile

"Who the hell told you to shadow over me?" She asks him back pointing out her index finger as He runs his fingers across his hair stuttering

"That..I....You...money..."

"What is it Aditya ?" She asks him tapping her leg and tying her hands across her chest with a frown Aww She looks cute Adi immediately smacks his head with his hand What the hell is He thinking ?Cute ?

Scratching his neck He awkwardly asks her "Have you got some money?"

Zoya laughs as they walk out of the park side by side "How is the taste of your own medicine ?" She teases him

"Have you got money Big Mouth ?" He teases her back with a smirk

She pulls out and waves front him "Two hundred Rupees "

He laughs "Only Rs.200? and you are showing attitude ?"

"Someone was desperate ?" She asks back

Giving her a smirk Adi moves forward "I do not need to feed on you" but , Zoya bursts out laughing as He stomach growls .Just the way He did without a glance She moves forward

"Jahanpanah..Follow me" .Jahanpanah ? He frowns and follows her .

She takes him to a road side stall and buys two Paav Bhaaji

"Here ..eat" She hands over him as He makes faces

"Have it ..or Get Lost"

Hurriedly Adi takes it and stuffs it in his mouth "hmmm It's tasty " He tells while munching

"Someone was showing attitude ? " Zoya remarks as Adi sheepishly laughs

Paying off they walk back as Zoya speaks "So I have repaid my debt "

"Did it costs only Rs.100?" He asks her

She smiles "It wasn't even a worth of Rs.10"

Adi gapes at her audacity "Girl..I helped you ..Remember ?" He tells frowning

"But did I get my Phone ..No right?"

"hmmm Don't you think you talk too much Big Mouth ?" He asks raising his brows

"Stop calling me Big Mouth I Am Not One" She pouts.

Noor is lost in his thoughts as She hugged the pillow as her face goes red . After removing his hand from her mouth He had signaled her to be silent and gave her an autograph and taken a selfie too, In over ecstasy She had jumped and hugged him and Kissed him on his cheeks as He stood baffled as her face came into his view a blush crept up Unable to face him She had run away from that place with a smile What would He think of me?

***

"Okay ...So I am leaving" Zoya says as they come to the road end She waves her hand with a smile

He grins , She takes a few steps forward to see him following her What is wrong with this man? Idiot He is following me ? Turning around She glares but without a glance He walks forward as She frowns

She runa behind him to match his steps .She stands front of him panting "Urgh why the hell have you got long legs? She snaps at him as He looks clueless

Catching her breath She asks angrily "Why were you following me ?"

"What..Following ..that to you?" He asks sarcastically

"I was going to the park" He replies

"What even I was going to the park !" She tells him confused

The realization hit them and both speak at the same time "Homeless"

They let out a laugh , Adi with a mischievous glint "So Miss Big Mouth you see leaving a girl alone at this hour of the night ..as a man it is not nice right?"

Zoya raises her brow challenging him to continue as He gulps his saliva ..Sure this women has an intimidating character

"To protect you " He breathes out

She scoffs " I know kick boxing so stay away from me " She warns him and sits on the bench as He occupies the place next to her .

The Sunlight directly hits on her face as She tries to block it with her hands .She snuggles closer to her comforter to seek warmth . She opens her eyes lazily to find her caged in two muscular arms .She looks up to see Adi's arms enveloped around her as her hands are locked around his neck . She smiles looking at him He looks like a baby.

He opens his eyes to see hazel orbs staring at him "Why?" He whispers

"How sweet do you look you know while sleeping ? ..Just like a baby " She tells him

He smiles and replies with an attitude "after all I am Aditya "

She tries to move but gets pulled back to his chest .He leaves her quickly remembering her kickboxing But how in the hell did we end up in this position? He Contemplates

"Akdu Sweet Hooda " She tells him cheekily as She breaks his stupor

What?' He asks her

"You are combination of rude and sweet so Akdu Sweet Hooda...How is it?"

"Big Mouth..You "

"Hey stop calling me that " She frowns as He smirks

"You did not have a problem yesterday?"

"Oh that I was in need akdu "She tells him with a pout

"Then Zo?..How is that "

She points her index finger at him glaring at him "Never call me Zo..Got it ?"

"Why?" He raises his brows as Zoya replies dreamily cupping her cheeks "Only My Husband Can Call me that "

Hearing tell that He frowns before He could control it slips from his tongue "Yash"

Zoya glares at him "Not him Jahanpanah , My husband " Adi did not know why He felt relaxed hearing her say that

"Bye Jahanpanah ..I am going " She gets up to go chirpily and moves a few steps forward

Adi calls her out "Bye Zo " He shouts teasing her making her glare angrily at him

"You bloody idiot it is for my husband to call! " She shouts throwing away the bottle She had in her hand , He runs away laughing as Zoya stomps her foot in the floor Frowning.
