Before ep 24

One day when the doctors were relaxing in the break room,
Dr Shahroz said, Dr Asfandyar I noticed that you did your medical from Karachi.
Dr Zubia you are from Karachi right?
He asked.

Yes sir, Zubia nodded.

It's nice if we go to Karachi we will have two tour guides ,Dr Asifa said.

Dr Haroon said, Is it possible that you two already crossed each other's paths? he laughed.

Well Karachi is a big place Dr Haroon, and I am sure if I had met Zubia ,I would have remembered her. Dr Asfandyar replied

Dr Shahroz smirked as he noticed the flirt in the sentence and how casually he dropped the formal Dr.

But they failed to notice Zubia, who looked as if she was thinking about something.

Come-on lets go, break is over .
Saying this all the Dr's went back to their duties.

Dr Asfandyar, Dr Zubia and Dr Asifa had completed their shift and so they were going home.

Dr Zubia I will drop you, Dr Asfandyar said.

Sure, lets go, Zubia replied.

He smiled.

In the car , Zubia broke the silence and asked ,
Do you really not remember me?

Excuse me?, Asfandyar asked confused.

You must not remember you were the one who saved me in Karachi,
I will always be thankful for that ,she smiled.

What had happened that day? Asfandyar asked recalling the face of the frightened girl.

Well I used to love that guy,
And was a huge idiot . One day the guy said that he wanted me to meet his mother and sister who had come to Karachi and after hesitating a bit I went there , As soon as I felt something is wrong, I pushed the guy and ran towards a public place but he followed me that time you saved me ,she said.

I was thankful to god and to you for that day.
Zubia thanked him and got down the car

It was not your fault Asfandyar said , you were young and he knew you were an easy prey, people like that target young girls.

Thank you you are the first one who said that and she left.

Back in her room

There is a reason why I mentioned my past to Dr Asfandyar today I know his mother likes me

But I want him to know about my past , I want to thank him for the favour he did on me that day.

He will discourage his mothers intentions

So I wont have to refuse, she thought to herself.

I know Dr Asfandyar is not like my abbi but I don't want to marry.

After so many years I remember my first love Khurram he took advantage of my innocence my trauma and tried to use me

I was also an idiot at that time.

If only my Ammi was alive she would have guided me, stopped me.

When my bhabhi realised the truth she used it to her advantage and separated me from my Bhai instead of confronting me , guiding me and stopping me She made it a play to the whole neighborhood. I am aware that she was the one who used to spread rumors about me.

Tears came down Zubia's face as she recalled her past.

Somewhere down the lane Asfandyar was feeling sad and sorry about how much she had suffered in such a short life . He felt angry toward his past neighbour regretting not beating him to a pulp that day.

He was glad that he was able to help her.
