Glad Zoya did not confide in Asad.

Why should she?

What does Zoya know about Asad?

He has refused to apologise to her- twice.😡

Once when she had been abducted by Akram- he had saved her, but he did not seem to understand that his actions had put her in grave danger. She herself had to remind him that an apology was due, yet, Asad had been stubborn. (Though he had actually apologised very nicely, well, it was not Zoya's fault that he chose that particular moment when she was listening to music.🤔)

roven him wrong- that she did not think about only HERSELF like he seemed to think, when she helped Mariam run away. Well, Akdu Ahmed Khan had enough brains to see that Mariam was running from dangerous people. Still, he refused to budge- instead, he accused her of disrupting his peaceful life😡 and on more than one occasion he had made it clear why he ends up saving her all the time- it was out of respect and regard for his ammi. He had NOTHING- not even an iota of respect or concern for her, so if he seemed to be nice, it was only because she was phoophi's guest.

 'Kyunki ammi ko lagta hai woh bechaari hain'😲

 

And he had made it very clear that Mariam had to be handed over to her father (that is how Asad's strict directive sounded), so that he can go ahead with her marriage as planned. (Zoya did not hear that convo between Dilavar and Asad that he wanted Mariam's life in place of the honour she had stained. Zoya still thinks it is all about a father's 'zid'-   he had given his word and his daughter was going to keep it. And this father is so adamant about his decision that he wouldn't think twice before killing any stranger who butts her head into his family's affairs. Zoya knows Mariam will be forced to marry her rapist- with all the blessings of her relatives- much like Zoya had been forced to marry Akram. It was just her luck that her Aapi ang Jeeju were broadminded enough to let her go.)😊

 

So, what does Zoya know about Asad?

His heart is in the right place- she has seen plenty of evidence for that- the way he rescued her and his sensitivity in dealing with his mother, sister and half- brother Ayan. But she is not quite sure about his brains. It seems like he cannot think past a first impression.😒 His impression about her has not changed in spite of the situations they had faced together. And it is unlikely that his orthodox beliefs will change too.  😉

Then again, she had proven him wrong- that she did not think about only HERSELF like he seemed to think, when she helped Mariam run away.

Good points. But even when I like Zoya's character more than Asad's (first because I am a feminist second because she is so much more fun), here are my views.

1. She has given Asad the impression of arrogant girl. Remember their first bumping. He was nice to her but she was the one who started arguing and being defensive. Clearly, this girl has too much of adrenaline flowing in her body.
2. Asad has some rules about how people should be in his house. Zoya comes and takes Najma to the cricket match and dancing there on TV screen. Do you blame him for getting mad? I don't.
3. Yes, he did make a mistake by sending her to meet Akram, but that was a genuine mistake. He thought Akram was a nice guy. And looking at Zoya's behavior, I wouldn't be surprised for his assumption that she ran away without a proper reason.
4. As far as Mariyam's thing goes, what would you have done if you were in Zoya's place? I will tell you what I would've done. I would've saved her, but wouldn't have told her to run away. Whatever it is, it was her battle. She had to learn to fight. I wouldn't butt in where my nose doesn't belong. But he came back to save her. That is more than any grand apology in my opinion and he was the one getting her out of that house on the bike. So, let's not blame him for that.

It is not easy to be with a person who is always doing stuff without understanding the consequences. I like her, but not her stupidity and I know lot of people give the name selfless. But when you are doing something selflessly, you cannot put someone else's life in danger. If a guest in your house brings another person and hides under your own roof, what will you do. However good her intentions are, it is wrong. If I were Asad, I would've thrown both of them out and be done and I am serious. Writers killed the character when she hid Maryam.

My 2 cents.

[ Umm given the way Asad is , apologizing is a HUGE deal for him . But he DID apologize eik dafa. They way Zoya demanded her apology was JUST not done. Asad ke jagah mai hoti toh I'd punch herr nose. For someone as busy as Asad, their phone is their lifeline. Professionally speaking. Fone pe deals bante hai, toot te hai. What Zoya did with his phone is absolutely unacceptable. Humiliating him in front of his subordinates. Just not done. 

Thanks, TanHa.

Actually I was thinking about the Akram episode She never got a real apology from him.

I found the phone thing really cute- all he had to do was say 'sorry' and he'd have had his pride back.

Haan! Asad has a problem with saying sorry. I understand that. Why should Zoya understand it when he was looking down on her all the time? She wanted to teach him a lesson.
