"Didn't you expect it?" Pooja asked.
Aditya shook his head.
After a pause Pooja continued,
"So you like Zoya?"
Without hesitation Aditya answered, "Yes"
Pooja was surprised.
She wasn't able to take all if the chaos that took place in one night.
"Aaah this is harddd!" Pooja screamed.
"Do you have any plans in mind to win her?" Pooja asked.
Aditya stayed quite and went to his room.
Pooja was furious and puzzled.
He got a dairy with him while returning.
"This will help me." Aditya said.
"How?"
"This is Zoya's dairy, She writes everything that she wants to do in this book."
"Like a bucket list?"
"Yes"
"But how did you get it?"
"Remember the day of my art exhibition, There it had fallen and happend to reach my hands."
"Oh fate."
"Maybe, But now I'll make her happy by doing all of this for her."
"Are you sure that it'll work?"
"Yes"
Aditya was confident.

Zoya was really stressed about the whole thing. She did not reply to Yash's confession. But she didn't have feelings for him either. Zoya liked Aditya, But was afraid. What if he hurts her again? She kept thinking all of this and she wasn't able to sleep that night.
Noor comforted Zoya the whole time. She was able to understand Zoya.
Zoya gave in another chance to Aditya, Even if she was scared she believed him.

The next day, Zoya went to Yash's office to give the budget plan for the wedding.
Zoya was very nervous to go up to him after that night, But he seemed normal as if nothing happened at all.
Zoya didn't want him to bring up that topic.
"Zoya." Yash called.
*Really?*
"About last night..." Yash started.
"Sir the clients have come." Noor informed.
Zoya was relieved.
"Keep them in the conference hall." Yash said and went to Zoya, Who was nervous because of her life.
"We'll talk about it later in the evening." Yash told Zoya, To be precise he wispered it in her ear and left.
Zoya stood there, Planning how to run away to an unknown area which has no living creatures in it.
She was ready to go on a full fruit diet if she was somehow dropped in a forest.

-One new notification- (Zoya)
Kohinoor: I'll be late, You don't wait for me and go home me. Caught up in a meeting with Yash and devils. Bye love!

Zoya sighed looking at the message.
She was relieved at the same time. She didn't have to 'Talk' to Yash.
Zoya immediately looked for cabs but unfortunately they weren't any.
She searched in many apps.
"Need help?"
Zoya was startled.
She turned and it was Aditya.
"Sorry,Did I scare you?" He asked.
Zoya nodded.
There was an awkward silence for a long time.
They were able to hear the papers moving due to wind.
"So may I help?" Aditya asked.
"It's fine, I'll go-"

-One new notification- (Zoya)
Pooja: Hey Zoya! I need some help could you come home?

-Two new notifications- (Aditya)
Lil Big sister: Get Zoya home safely.

Lil Big sister: And I mean it. 😡

Aditya smirked looking at his messages.
Zoya glared at him.
If one problem goes,Another one finds it's own way.
Aditya stood up.
"Do you still think you'll get cabs?" Aditya asked.
"Don't worry, You'll be safe..." Aditya started.
"...With me"

The first few minutes felt like hours in the car because of the silence. Aditya tried breaking the silence a million times but he stopped himself thinking it was lame.
Zoya just admired the street lights along the way according to Aditya, But Zoya really wanted to run away somehow.
She just wished that someone she knew could kidnap her soon.
Maahi!
Maahi is the perfect person to help her at such a sit-
After some point, Aditya wasn't able to take it so finally he spoke.
"Are we going to figure who could stay silent the longest?"
Zoya turned Wiping all of her desires and nodded, "No"
Aditya smiled and took a glimpse of her.
"Were you thinking of ways to run away?" Aditya asked.
Zoya's eyes widened at his question.
Aditya noticed it in the mirrors and smiled wide.
"So I was right." Aditya said.
"How did yo..."
"I know you since we were kids, Of course I could read your mind."
Zoya sighed.
They became quite again for a few seconds, But Zoya started this time.
"Why are you like this?" She asked.
"Like what?"
"Why do you always try to make me happy and even when I told you to leave me you stayed back, Why?"
"Because out happiness lies here. Wherever we are, We will be happy together. And we both know it."
"But th-"
"You cannot deny it."
Aditya said and turned the car. Zoya noticed something different, It's not the usual way to his house.
"Isn't this the wrong way?" Zoya asked.
Aditya chuckled.
"It's the right way."
"But isn't your house the other side?"
"Yes"
"Then why are you going this way?"
"Good question. We aren't going home."
"Then?!"
"You'll see."
Aditya said and smiled.
Zoya didn't know how to react to his smile, She just sat back.

"Come on" Aditya said and extended his hand towards Zoya, Gesturing her to hold his hand and come into the boat.
But Zoya was confused.
Where is he taking her in a boat.
Is he going to take her to a deserted island and force her to live there forever?!
Even if it sounded childish, Zoya was afraid.
"I'm not going to abduct you" Aditya said cutting her off from her thoughts.
Zoya opened her eyes wide again.
She held his hand and got inside the boat.

The boat was very wide that could constitute many people in it. There were many chairs assembled in the back and a very few in some places.

(A/N: Sorry, I don't know much about boats and it's types.)

Aditya and Zoya sat in between them. Zoya was still confused about everything.

Zoya was scared in the boat. It was shaky, So she wondered if she would fall into the water and drown until her lungs gets full with water and she would suffocate to death.
"Don't you think too much? " Aditya asked.
"I'm just kind of afraid." Zoya said.
Her hands were Trembling.
Aditya held her hands tightly.
Zoya was shocked and looked at him.
"Don't worry." Aditya wispered.

Suddenly Aditya got up, And the boat stopped.
Zoya was puzzled.
Aditya held her hand and pulled her to the edge of the boat.
(A/N: Titanic~ Just Kidding)

Zoya was confused and looked at him. Aditya understood her expressions and pointed at the sky. Zoya followed his finger and looked above. After a few seconds, There were fireworks.
Zoya's eyes widened in surprise.
She loved it alot.
Aditya looked at her and admired her looks.
She smiled wide.
"This is amazing!" Zoya exclaimed.
"Yes." Aditya replied.
"More than I expected for it to be."
"So you planned all of this? " Zoya asked.
Aditya nodded in response.
"Wow! But why?" Zoya asked.
"I told you.." Aditya started.
Zoya looked at him.
"..I told you that whenever we are together, Time goes slow and happy."
