The trio start moving and aditya's shirt gets stuck in the nail hammered on the wall and pulls the shirt and it tears into 2 peices.....he then removes the whole shirt only and wdout wasting a second...reach the open area which was decorated beautifully as per aditya's instructions...

A devastated noor wdout confirming whether it is aditya or not...

Noor: appi..! Woh dekhiye...aditya...kisi larki ko propose kar raha hai..

Arjun sits on his knees wd a ringbox in hand..and plays the recording...just as the recording starts noor and zoya appear...and aditya is hiding somewhere....

Zoya: noor....! Yeh aditya nahi ho saktey...! Aditya humarey saath aisa nahi kar saktey...(assuring her self)

But as the recorder starts playing she recognizes aditya's voice...and tears started brewing in her eyes...

The recorder says..:

"mujhey nahi pata tha pehli nazar ka pyaar lekin jab tum aaye toh mujhey waqai mai pata chal gaya k pehli nazar ka pyaar kaisey ek dum ho jata hai...mai yeh nahi samajhta kai mujhey tum sey pehli nazar mai pyaar ho gaya par yeh zaroor bolu ga k kuch toh hua thaa pehli nazar mai. Mai yeh bhi samajh gaya hu k pyaar dukh bhi deta hai aur khushi bhi...mujhey pyaar mai dono chahye tumsey kyu k agar sirf khushi miley gi toh mujh mai guroor aajaye ga aur agar sirf dukh miley ga toh mera pyaar sey bharosa uth jaye ga..aur agar dono miley gey toh lagey ga k yeh such hai k tum meray paas ho aur qadar (importance) hogi tumharey pyaar ki...tum mujhey pyaar karney k kaabil samjho ya na samjho...yeh aditya hooda tumsey pyaar karna kabhi nhi bhooley ga...! "

And arjun stops the recorder...the recording in not yet complete...

Zoya's eyes are red in tears...how could he just do that....all her moments wd aditya starts flashing in front of her eyes....just then she sees aditya coming in front of her shirtless. Shock would be an understatement for noor and zoya.....if aditya was here then who was that on his knees...tht person got up and turned out to be arjun...and he moved aside

Trying to register everything aditya took her hand and bought her exactly where arjun and sanjana were there making arjun shocked tht his bhai loves this girl..the shopping mall girl....he then sits on his knees and takes out a bright,shiny,diamond ring..

Aditya: zoya siddiquie..! Mai tumsey beyintehaaa pyaar karta hu aur tumharey liye mera sab kuch qurbaan...tumhey dhoka denay kay baarey may mai soch bhi nahi sakta...agar tum mera saath chuno gi toh mai tumhey duniyaa jaahan ki khushiyan laa k du ga...lekin pyaar sirf khushi ka naam nahi hai...agar larai naah ho toh rishta mazboot kaisey hoga...miss zoya siddiquie , do u accept me.....

A traumatized zoya didnt speak anything but just forwarded her left hand....and the next millisecond a ring was in her finger...she had tears of happiness in her eyes...but wasnot able to digest tht why all tht happened just a while ago...

Adi: jaanta hu...bohot sawaal ho gey...! Sab ka jawaab miley ga...

He then signals arjun to play that recording of noor and her plannings....

Noor was stilled...no emotion,expression on her face and she came forward being visible to everyone now...

And the next one who has to be shocked was arjun...the one who he loves did all this mess wd her only sister...

Noor sees arjun and feels guilty...

Noor: appi..! I can explain..!

Thudd...! A slap on her face...

Zoya: kya samjhaye gi ap..! Noor humey apsey yeh expect nahi tha...ap humey ek baar bolti toh sahi k apko aditya pasand nahi...noor..itni bari planning..ap aisi toh nahi thi...

Noor: im sorry appi..! And she leaves from there...

She rushes to the apartment and packs her suitcase and starts to leave...tears rolled down her cheeks..she was extremely guilty for whtever happened...she indeed wanted this to happen...she did want aditya to be low in front of her sister..but destiny always has some other plans...

Yash: noor di..! Ap itni raat ko kaisey jaaye gi..? Subah tak ka wait kar ley mai chor du ga apko...

Noor: mujhey abhi jaana hai....tum na hi nolo toh acha hai...mujhey kisi ki salaah (advice) ki zaroorat nahi hai...

Yash: noor di..! Kya huwa hai..? Zoya di kyu nahi hai apkey saath?

Noor: shut up..!

And she leaves the house....

One more tension for yash....

Yash's thoughts: aagey problems kam thay zindagi mai k ek aur...

On the other side....

Zoya runs inside the resort...and goes to the bar counter..,she wants water...(A/N: i hv no idea if u can get water from the bar😐😐) ...

The bartender sees her drooling over her angelic beauty...and gives her alcohol mixed wd water....

Zoya takes a sip and frowns....bartender understands...

Bartender: Mam! Saada paani nahi tha toh isi liye flavoured water diya hai...

××

Arjun was left baffled after the shocking revealation of noor to him...he was confused the moment he saw zoya there..but bechara was slow to understand and respond to the surrounding...

He is broken...aditya , sanjana doesnot even know the reason of tears in arjun's eyes...just a drop of tear escaped his eyes and the next millisecond he wiped it...

Arjun's thoughts: kuch nahi lagti woh meri...mai uss sey pyaar nahi kar sakta...ENOUGH! YOU ARE NEVER GONNA CRY FOR HER AGAIN...how could i be so dumb..how could i not recognize her voice..in the recorder...this all is enough for me...his inner voice spoke to himself...

Arjun: bhaii..! Mai ap k apartment jaa raha hu...! Subah hotey hi first flight sey mai waapis mumbai chala jao ga...

Aditya nods , failing to understand and interpret his brother's broken voice...aditya himself is in a so complicated situation...he just created a rift between two sisters...but he had no choice...he wanted to sort out matters wd her...but she refused...

++++

Yash calls waseem...

Waseem: yaad aagaye apko hamari...!?

Yash: Assalamoalaikum abbu..! Kaisey hai ap aur ammi...!

Waseem: hum dono theek hai... isi din k liye ap teeno ko bara kiya tha k hum dono ko akela chor dey...! Khair choriye....

Yash's thoughts: yeh abbu aisey kyu baat kar rahey hai...itney gussay mai kyu hai ..

Waseem: ab kuch boley gey bhi ya phone bund kardey..

Yash: abbu..! Noor abhi thori der tak mumbai pohonch jaye gi ap usko ley lijye ga...

Waseem: theek hai..! Allah hafiz...

Yash: khudahafiz...

Yash's thoughts: yeh abbu aisey kyu baat kar rahey thay...aur noor di woh bhi..! Zoya di kaha hai..? Uff meri zindagi...! Masley hi khatam nahi hotey..! Zoya di ko call karta hu..!

He calls zoya...no response...no other option than waiting for her...

####

Arjun is about to leave..when aditya stops him...

Adi: chotey..! Sanjana ko bhi chor dena.....! Mai taxi sey aajao gaa..!

Arjun nods and leaves to the car...sanjana also goes....

Adi: zoya kaha gaye...! (He looks up and closes his eyes ) bhagwan ji..! Ap please meri zindagi k saarey masley sort out kardo..!
He opens his eyes and goes for searching zoya...!

Arjun is driving wd sanjana sittinf on the passenger seat...

Sanjana: ek baat poochu...?

Arjun: hmmm..!

Sanjana: pehlay mainey socha k nahi poochti...lekin phir pooch lia...

Arjun: pooch bhi lo..!

Sanjana: tum ro kyu rahey thay...?

Arjun puts brakes on her question...

Sanjana:please bataaa do..! Mayb i can help...!

Arjun: woh bass aisey hi...woh unn do behno ki larai ki wajah sey...

Sanjana: arjun...tum jaantey ho na tum jhoot nahi bol saktey...na abb aur naa hi bachpan mai....

Flashback....

Arjun(5 years old)
Sanjana(4 years old)
Aditya(7 years old)

Little Sanjana was at the hooda house for playing wd aditya and arjun...

Arjun was showing his new batman toy..

Sanjana: wooowww..! Yeh kitna pyaaaraa toh hai..!

Anjana baked the trio's favourite cupcakes...2 ,2 for each one of them and then 2 for herself...

She kept them in the fridge to cool them...arjun and aditya being impatient ate when the icing or cream on the cupcake just cooled a bit...

Anjana: sanjana beta...! Tum bhi khaa lo..!

Sanjana: auntyy...! Jab yeh full thandey(cool) ho jaye gey mai tab khaao gi...tab aur bhi mazaa aaye ga....!

Anjana:(smiled on her patience level...she being the smallest still had patience) acha theek hai..,

Arjun, aditya finished fast...
Arjun had his eyes on sanjana's cupcakes as well...
He remembered how she liked his batman toy...he went upstairs and bought the toy and gave sanjana...

Arjun: tumhey yeh pasand tha..! Tum ley lo...! Jaldi jao ghar pey rakh k aoo...

Sanjana: haaww...! Sachi..! Mai ley lu...! Thank u..! And she hugs him...

Arjun: ab jaoo..! Jaa k apney ghar may rakh k aoo..

Sanjana: kyu..! Mai jaatey huey ley jaao gi...

Arjun: aisa nah ho k mera plan badal jaye aur mai toy wapis ley lu...!

And she runs out out of the main gate..and arjun runs towards the fridge...he takes out the cupcakes...

Arjun: yumm..! Kitney mazey k lag rahey hai...

And in his full speed he kept munching the cupcakes...leaving the cream on his cheek...

Just then someone keeps a hand on his little shoulder...!

He turns to see aditya....

Arjun: bhaii..! Sorryy..! Ap please sanjana ko mat bolna..

Adi: mai toh bolu ga...phir tujhey maa sey maar paarey gi...yaaayaaaaayyaaya...phir mujhey mazaa aye ga...! Aur mujhey kitniii sukoon ki neend aaye gi...

Arjun: bhai..! Please...warna mai mom ko boldu ga k jo chocolates gayab hoye thi..woh ap khaa gaye thay....

Adi: jaa bol dey..! Mai konsa darta hu..! Chocolates hi toh thi..!(wd confidence)

And arjun for real starts going near anjana's room and adi's confidence shatters into peices...

Adi: acha nahi batao ga...promise...

Arjun: thank u bhai...!

Adi: waisey ek cupcake toh mujhey bhi dena chahye tha...!

Arjun: agli baar bhai..! pakka..

They are busy in talking near their mom's room...when they hear shouts from down...

Sanjana: anjana aunty..! Kisi ney meray cupcakes khaa liye...! Boohooo...(crying)..

Anjana: (seeing at adi and arjun) koi baat nahi tum meray cupcakes ley lo...!

Sanjana: woh to mai ley hi loongi...! Par meray cupcakes kaha gaye..? (Glaring at arjun and adi)...

She runs to arjun and starts pulling his hair...

Sanjana: tum...tumney meray cupcakes khaye hai..! Mujhey pata hai....

Arjun: nahi..! Pakka nahi..! Bhai sey poocho mainey toh nahi khaaye...!

Adi: sanjana..! Tum jaanti ho mai tumhari cheezay nahi leta....

Sanjana: mujhey pata hai k arjun nay khaye hai...! Meray favourite thay...(crying)..

Anjana: ok rona band karo...hum dono mil k abhii aur bana ley gey..!

Sanjana: nahii..! Mujhey wohi waley chahye hai...! Arjun tum lie kar rahey ho...truth mai batati hu...tumney hi khaye hai kyu k tumharey cheeks par chocolate cream lagi hui hai...! Aur chocolate cupcakes sirf meray thay...

She starts punching him...

Sanjana: tum lies nahi bola karo kyu k mai tumhari lies hamesha pakar lu gi...! Ab jao aunty k saath meray liye cupcakes banao..

Arjun: okayy(sadly)..

Flashback ends*

Sanjana: ab batao..! Kya huwa hai...

Arjun opens the car door and goes out...sanjana does the same...

Arjun: mai aur noor..pehli baar ek shopping mall mai miley aur phir...(he narrates the whole thing to her abt noor)...woh mujhey bohot pasand thi...pehli baar mujhey koi larki pasand aaye dil sey..lekin aj k baad...shayad meri choice hi galat thi....

Sanjana: tumhari choice galat nahi thi...tum bass wait karo aur sab theek ho jaye ga...dont worry...tum jo bhi decision lo gey koi suppprt karey na karey mai zaroor support karu gi...

Arjun: thanks...! (Smile..)

Sanjana: ur welcome...ok ab chaley..!

--

Zoya drinks the alcohol a bit more than needed thinking it was flavoured water....she was trying to digest and accept the facts tht life showed her...

Zoya's pov:

Noor hum sey baat toh karti...lekin nahi unhoney hamesha apni marzi ki aur ab bhi apni marzi ki...kyu..? Noor ko humari khushi sey problem kyu thi...aditya kyu nahi pasand thay...aur aj toh humney noor ko thapar mara woh..!

Adi spots her near the bar counter and goes towards her...

Adi: zoya..! Chalo..! Mai tumhey ghar drop kardu ga..,

Zoya: ghar..! (Thinking for seconds) humara koi ghar hai? Lagta toh nahi...

He pulls her to the open area of the resort again...where no 1 was there...he couldnt lsn to her in high pitched music...

Adi: yaha pey koi chair nahi hai...hum dono neechay baith letay hai...(he sits down legs crossed)

Zoya: acha..! Agar hum neechay baith gaye toh humari dress kharab ho jaye gi...! Hum yaha baithey gey....(she goes and sits in his lap...)

Adi: zoya..! Tum hosh mai ho..?

Zoya: humey kya hua hai...aur ho bhi kya sakta hai...? Ap nahi jaantey aj na humey apni zindagi ka sab sey baraa shock mila hai...!

Adi: aur woh kya hai...?

Zoya: aj apney humey propose kiya..? Ap mazaak kar rahey thay hum jaantey hai (sadly)

Adi: mai mazaak nahi kar raha tha..! Mai serious hu aur ab bhi hu..i love you zoya...! Humeshaaaa...!

Zoya: sach mai..? Looking straight in his eyes..

Adi: haan..! Sach mai..also looking straight in her eyes..

Zoya: wwwoooowww....! She smiles ear to ear.. and the next second her smile fades away... par noor...woh apko pasand nahi karti...kyu? Ap toh itneeyyy (widening her arms) achey hai...sab apko pasand kartey hai...par noor kyu nahi..?

Adi: pata nahi..! Shayad woh tumsey jealous hogi...

Zoya: woh humsey jealous kyu hogi....woh bhi humari behen hai...jo humarey paas hai woh unn k paas bhi hai...ap galat hai woh humsey jealous nahi ho sakti...

Adi: tum galat ho iss baar...uss k paas sab kuch hoga lekin woh tumsey isi liye jalti hogi kyu k tumharey paas mai hu....

Zoya: haawww...! Ab ap itney bhi achey nahi...!

Adi: pata hai..! (Sadly)..

Zoya: finallyyy...! Ap maan gaye k ap achey nahi hai...! phew..! Hats off to u miss zoya...! (She pats herself)

Adi: self obsessed women..! Huh..!

Zoya: hum self obsessed nahi hai..! Hum...ummmm! (Thinking) hum aditya obsessed hai...! Haan..!

Adi: (his eyes shot open ) tum mujh sey obsessed ho..? Waah....waisey tum pehli larki nahi ho...! Its ok..! ab toh aadat si hogaye hai...

Zoya: haah..! Ap ki kitni girl friends thi..?

Adi: countless...!

Zoya: huh..! Itni zyada..! Ap toh khel rahey thay unn k saath..! Humarey saath bhi ap khel rahey hai...(tears brewing in her eyes)...

Adi: oyee..! Tum ro kyu rahi ho..! (Wipes her tears)...mai mazaak kar raha tha...!

Zoya: waqai mai...! (Aditya nods).. (she takes his hand)..ap humey kabhiiii chor k nahi jaye ga...

Adi: kabhi nahi..! Ek baat batao..! Tum mujhey kab pasand karney lagi...!

Zoya: ummm...! Sochney dey.,!

After 2 mins...

Zoya: humey yaad nahi aaraha ..!

Adi: koi baat nahi...! Chalo utho ab..! My legs are paining....kitni bhaari ho tum...

She got up instantly....

Zoya: uth gaye...agli baar nahi baithey gey...aur hum halkey hai...bhaari aap hai..! (Says while raising her finger on him )...

Adi: acha acha ok..! Mai bhaari...! Aur tum meri

She smiles....and she passes out due to the alcohol running in her system...

He picks her and her purse along in a bridal style...he is going to go in the parking lot when he remembers that arjun took the car...he then went to the taxi stand...all the people he saw in the way were staring at him and zoya...without paying a heed to them he sat in the taxi and reached her apartment...and told the taxi to wait 5 minutes

He pressed the bell twice...and the door didnt open..he thought of checking in her purse for the key...

He found the key and opened the door and straight went to her room..very well knowing the interior of her apartment...

He placed her on the bed and went to the kitchen and made a lemonade for her...and placing a note beside it...

"Sar mai dard ho raha hai ryt...drink the lemonade i made for u by my hands and will never forget yesterday...it was the best....
Love you,aditya.."

He then went outside and locked the main door wd the key and went...

Aditya's thoughts: yash aaye ga toh khud hi khol ley ga..chaabi mai ley jaata hu....

He goes and reaches his apartment smiling like an idiot...

He was too much into his happiness tht he didnt realize arjun was missing...

He calls anjana...as his happiness had no boundaries...

Anjana: hello adi..! Kaisa hai tu?

Adi: mai toh bindaas hu ma..! Ap kaisi ho aur pa...? Pa sey baat kiye huey zamaaana hogaya hai...

Anjana: sab theek hai..! Aur tu arjun sey mila kya...? Woh college k kaam sey delhi gaya tha..! Teray exams kab hai?

Adi: haan ma..! Mai arjun sey mila tha aur meray exams next month hai...

Anjana: exams k baad tu aur pooja yaha mumbai aao gey chuttiyo k liye...aur mai naa nahi suno gi....pooja k exams ka kya?

Adi: maa! Ap relax karo aur mai next month pakka aao ga aur pooja bhi aaye gi...! Hum dono k exams saath mai hai...!

Anjana: okay..!

Adi: okay maa! Mai baad mai baat karu ga...!

Anjana: ek min sun..! Arjun kaha hai..mujhey uss sey baat karni hai...

Adi: maa...! Ap uskey number pey call karlo simpleee...! (Duhhh)

Anjana: tujhey mai bewaqoof dikhti hu kya..? Kiya tha call...jawaab mai aaya "the person ur trying to reach is currently unavailable, pls try again later" (imitating the lady in the phone)..

Adi:*chuckles* acha maa..! Mai karwata hu...

He goes out of his room, checks the living room, washrooms, pooja's room and everywhere..he was no where to be seen...

Anjana: adi..! Itna time kyu lag rha hai...

Adi: umm..! Maa..! Woh..woh nahaa (bath) rha hai...! Baad mai baat hogi..! Khyal rakhiye ga...

And he cuts the call wdout waiting for her reply..

Anjana: (herself) ye aisey achanak kyu phone bund kardia...koi toh masla hai..! Arjun k baarey mai kuch toh hai...

Aditya on the otherside goes outside and checks the nearby places to find arjun....but he wasnt found anywhere...his mind was blocked , where to search him and who to contact..suddenly something strikes his head...and he dials sanjana's number..

Sanjana: haan..!

Adi: arjun kaha hai..?

Sanjana: kya matlab arjun kaha hai..? Apartment mai hi hoga..!

Adi: nahi hai..! Kahi bhi nahi hai...!

Sanjana: tum aisa karo gaari lekar meray ghar sey mujhey lo..hum mill k dhoond ley gey ussey...

Adi: okay...!

Sanjana was scared , what if arjun harms himself...she knew wht he is going through but self harm is not the solution...

He soon picks her and they start roaming on the streets by the car...45 minutes passed...they both started losing hope....

Suddenly,

Sanjana: gaari roko...! (Screamed)

He stops the car and she gets out of the car...she runs and hugs the person who was sitting on the bench..! Tears flowing from her eyes...

He was revealed to be arjun...he looked up..

Arjun: bhai..! Sanjana..! Ap dono yaha pey kyu..!

Adi: aur kaha jaatey..! Chal gaari mai baith....!

The trio sat in the car..arjun on the passenger seat....aditya on the driving seat and sanjana on the backseat..

Aditya drops sanjana and then goes to his place...without speaking to him he enters the room and takes blanket and pretends to sleep...

Arjun: bhai..! Ap so gaye ho..?

*no reply*

Arjun: bhai..! Sorry naa...!

*no reply*

He goes and pulls his blanket...and sees him crying...

Arjun: bhai ap ro rahey ho...

Adi: nahi (while wiping his tears)...

Arjun: bhai..! (Glaring him)...

Adi: kya karu..! Aansu (tears) ruktey hi nahi...khud hi ronaa aajata hai...!

Arjun: its okay..! Bhai ap mujh sey naraaz ho...!

Adi: nahi..!

Arjun: waisey apki love story ka kya bana..! (Teasingly)..

Adi: jo bhi bana ho tujhey koi masla hai...

Arjun: shayad ap bhool rahey hai..mainey hi apki madad ki hai...

Adi: haan haan..! Thank you meray bhai..

Arjun: ap k toh bacho k bhi bacho ko mera thank u bolna chahye future mai...mai nahi hota ap aur bhabhi ko patch up karwaney k liye toh woh bhi duniya mai naah hotey...aditya glares.. bhai...! Future mai...fuuutttuuureee(longing it)..abhi ki baat nahi kar raha...

Adi: ok..ok.. hogaya tera..! Mujhey koi farak nahi parh raha teray iss teasing session sey...

Arjun: wah..! Mujhey toh laga tha ap bhabhi k saath future banao gey apna..,lekin ap toh sirf mazaak kar rahey thay...waisey bhi bhabhi ko koi aur mil jayee ga uss sey woh shaadi kar ley gi..its ok... phir woh apko apna bhai banaa ley gi..aur unkey aur kissii aur k bacho k maamo (mother's bro) ban jao gey..

Adi: arjun..! Just shut up...! Get out..!

Arjun: bhai.., mai toh bass..

Adi: i said get out...! Shakal mat dikhana...

Arjun: bhai mai kaha jao..! Mujhey neend aarahi hai.., mai so raha hu...! Ap sochtey raho apni zoya behan aur uss k husband k bacho k baarey mai, mai toh so raha hu.

Adi: arjun..! Chupp..!

And arjun was giggling...inside his blanket and was stopped when adi started beating him...

Adi: bara mazaa aaraha hai...*punch*

Arjun: sorry sorry..! (Laughing)
