Part 17 - Nightwalk

At Yash house-

Welcome Zoya. It's the very first time you are here. We never got the chance to interact with each other. Why didn't you came here earlier? You should have settled here. Told Yash so many times to bring you here. But he never agreed to this.

It's not his fault ma. Actually I am responsible for this. I have been brought up in a very small hilly area. Never got to explore any places properly. I am very reserved kind of a person. I was scared. Y
I thought this city won't give me happiness. I am very ma. But I guess destiny had its other plan. See now I am here.

It's okay Zoya. I am glad you finally came here. Stay here. If you feel like this city is yours then you can move here permanently.

Dats not gonna happen mom. Yash thought. She will stay here till I want her to stay. Until I find the right opportunity to speak the truth Zoya will be staying here. I am sorry ma. I know you will hate me for this. But I can't stay in loveless marriage. I am sorry. I hope you will understand.

Where is Mahi mom?

You know how she is with zoya. She won't come here. She is in the office Yash.

I am sorry Zoya. I tried to make Mahi understand but she just...

It's okay ma. Now that I am here, I will try to make things better. Just give me some time. I am sure Mahi will understand me.

It's okay Zoya. Don't feel bad about it. I am sure you can .

Yash take her to your room.

Yes mom. Let's go Zoya.

****

So here is your room.

Our room Yash. It's our room. Ummm not bad hubby. You definitely have a good taste.

Zoya you go and change. I will just be back.

Yash enough now. Stop leaving me like this so often. I mean come on I am here and I don't even know anything about your room and the people here. And you are just going like this.

Zoya relax. Why are you over reacting? I just thought you are tired so I asked you to change. What's wrong in that? You are seriously going overboard now.

I am going overboard Yash? Since few days I am noticing this. You have suddenly changed so much. I mean you leave me anywhere anytime, Don't even communicate properly. What's wrong with you?

Zoya see I am seriously tired now. Don't wanna start a fight here at the moment. I have to rush to office for some emergency meeting. You go and change. Will catch you at night. This is the way I work Zoya. You have to deal with it.

Yash leaves the room in anger.

Zoya couldn't believe Yash has changed this much all of sudden. Zoya was hurt. She really was. It was her first day in her in laws house and she was treated this way that too by her husband.

****

Finally home sweet home. Damn whatever we say man but I get all charged up when I return here at the end of the day. The big Hooda mantion.

Adi, go and change . Everyone is having a jet lag. We all gonna doze off earlier today. I asked victor to prepare food. Go freshen up.

Yes my lord. Your wish my command.

****

At night Zoya was waiting for Yash to return. Since the time he left for office he has not returned yet. Her mother in law already said Zoya to stop waiting for Yash as he works like this here day and night. Zoya somehow felt bad with her behaviour with Yash. She should have understood how Yash works all day and night just to earn good and give a better life to his family and his wife simultaneously. Zoya wanted to apologise to him.
