"Minal, look there in front, quickly......"Isha signals her in a direction from whereby Minal was walking with her."Where Api (sister), what is there?"She was not getting what her sister was telling her."Hey, look here in the front, with a black car where two women are standing...."Isha was now telling her in detail. Because there was so much crowd so she can't make her understand through her finger gesture.Because she feels scared if the one in front of her looks at her."Right that car......yes the car is good.... but Api we can't purchase such an expensive car."She said innocently, to which Isha smiled."Silly, I am not telling you about the car but the boy who is standing with the car....."Isha diverted her attention toward the boy. On saying Isha she looks at the boy, who was standing with the car and talking with someone on his phone."That's the guy about whom I told you.... you know he is the most handsome guy in our university, every girl in university droll over him, but he doesn't talk with anyone....... while he meets with me very nicely, and talks with me.....he also helps me so many times..... you know what Minal, sometimes it feels to me, that he......""Yes, yes I know, you feel that he like you...... that's why he is always ready to help you, isn't it......"Minal cut her in the middle."Api every time I listen to this from you, but have you ever paid attention to what I told you......"Minal looks at her sister and said solemnly. Minal is three years younger than Isha. But she is more intelligent and wise than Isha.She knows really well that her sister is falling for that man. But she doesn't like her sister befriending with these rich people.She constantly tried to make her sister understand but Isha, being an elder sister was not that much wise.She does whatever she likes. And when she wants something she became adamant about getting it.And that was the reason which keeps Minal worried for her sister. Because she is scared from the coming time.Whenever she came back from the university, she starts narrating her stories, and she always listens to them halfheartedly. And in the end, she doesn't forget to advise her."So tell me how do you find him.....?."Finding her silent, Isha again addresses her."He is fine, Api......he is like every other guy, I didn't find anything special in him....."She said uninterestingly. On that Isha glared at her surprisingly."You always act like that Minal, how handsome he is and you find him just ok......"Her sister's remarks have surprised her a lot."Yes Api, fine, now let's go home it's getting late, mama will be worried at home..... tomorrow you can see him in the university."She held Isha's hand and pull her with himself towards the other side. On that, Isha looks at her sister and just smiled.******Taking slow steps she came to her room. She was so much exhausted at that time.She was intended to take a nap after changing her dress.Being exhausted, she still was very happy today. First, she becomes happy after not finding him in the university today.And second, after coming back from the university Shah Zain took her for shopping with himself.She is not that much of a shopping girl. But today she spent a very good time with Shah Zain. Right now she was just with him and now she came back to her room. After locking the door of her room, she stepped in the room." You will be so obedient to listen to me, I was not aware of that."She was going towards the washroom when his voice halted her steps.Noor looks back and finds him standing in front of her. He was standing comfortably gazing at her and one hand was inside of his pant pocket.There was a strange spark in his eyes."If I was already aware that you will come to the university because of me then I will have left all my work just to come for you."He was making a move toward her."But, it's fine, now I just come here to meet you......"His eyes were fixed on Noor's face. Listening to him and his moving steps towards herself, Noor takes steps towards back.It means yesterday night was not her dream. He in actuality came to her. And now he is really in front of her in her room."W.....why are you doing this......at last, what do you want?"Now she gears some courage and looks into his eyes while saying. After all, she is much annoyed because of him.Till now she has shown enough of her patience."I want to imprison you with myself, and by doing so I enjoy very much which I can't explain to you in words....."It was the first time, Kawish saw her talking to him like that. Don't know why but he doesn't like Noor getting courageous. After all, he likes his nightingale getting scared.Listening to his answer, Noor eyes pops out in astonishment. It means he is doing all this for the sake of his fun."I will tell to my brother that you annoy me daily..... first I didn't tell....b.... but.... I will tell him now...."She said by moistening her throat, which become dry, by engulfing some saliva. While her eyes were on Kawish's steps which are coming close to her with each of his taking step.Finding him coming close to herself, Noor immediately run away but he caught her and grab her by her arm before her running."Go tell him comfortably, I also want that he also gets to know how close I am with my wife, at least the misconception can be cleared."He said while moving her close to himself. His hold on Noor's arm becomes tighter.While Noor's mind was still wondering about his word 'wife' than on his tightly holding her. With puzzling looks in her eyes, she keeps gazing at him."I...... I......y..... your wife......"She hardly utters these words. Kawish deliberately utters the word wife because he feels it's the time to let her know what is the relationship between both of them."Yes, you are my wife......if you don't believe in my saying then ask your brother.... and tell him that very soon I am coming to take you, so get yourself ready......"For a moment, he gazes at her puzzle-looking face then he let go of her arm.While Noor was not getting what should she say."But I am feeling sorry for one thing.... it's ok you don't recognize me but you have also forgotten my name, didn't you forget me too early......"He was looking at silently standing Noor. For a while, he keeps standing waiting for her that she will say something. But when she didn't utter a word then he went back from the way he came.While Noor keeps standing in that position."Kawish."He truly said how early she forget that name. Don't know how many times she used to listen to this name in the university but her attention never went towards that Kawish.Why was that and why did her brother hide such big news from her? Only Shah Zain can know the answer to all these questions."What happened? Why are you that silent, Is there something worrisome?"Since the time Mrs. Yusra came to the room, she finds silently her sitting husband in one position, when she can't bear it anymore, she asked him.At Mrs. Yusra's voice, he raises his head and looks at her, who was looking at him with questioning eyes."Nothing, there's a lot of work in the company nowadays so for that reason I am feeling exhausted."After answering her, he gets up from his place. As he already knows it doesn't make any difference to her if she knows. "Till now you never feel exhausted, then why today.....or you don't want to tell me something....."She inquisitively looks at him while saying. She feels like Mr. Hassan is hiding something from her and she was not wrong in thinking that."Kawish came back....."He tells her as if some surprising news. But she wasn't affected by what Mr. Hassan said."Kawish came back then what is there to worry about, he has to come back here one day and he came.
Flashback"Noor, come here....see what I bring for you...see."An eighteen years old boy, holding a chocolate in his hand, was standing in front of a ten years old girl to try to give her that chocolate.He tried to talk to her but that little child always gets scared and went to her mother hiding behind her."See Aunt, whenever I come here, she always does this with me...."The boy complained to Miss Sara, who was standing in front of him, against that little girl.He always comes to Mr. Hassan's house just for the sake of Noor. But, on the other side, let alone speaking she can't even come near him.And as always he complained against her to Miss Sara."No son, it's not only with you that she is behaving like that, she also acts like that with Shah Zain whenever he comes home on vacation......but you don't feel sad, Noor is a little child now, son....... and she is also very weak, she can't get along with other people that immediately.....it will take some time, she will get fine by
"Bhai, What are you doing...."As Noor enters Shah Zain's room, she finds him searching for something in his wardrobe, so she asked him.Listening to the voice of Noor, he turned to look back at her."Nothing, I was not finding my white shirt so I am looking for it....."He closed the wardrobe and came towards her."Let me do so Bhai, I will find it, it will be here, but you couldn't spot it...."As she listened to Shah Zain, she moves towards his wardrobe but Shah Zain stopped her by holding her from her arm."No, leave it, have I ever did any work from you before that I will do now."He smiled looking at her and holding her hand, he make her sit on the sofa."Now tell me, what do you want to talk about...."He keeps holding her hand. "Bhai, how do you know that I want to talk to you about something...."She was astonished, at what her brother said. "The sadness on your face tell me about it.... now tell me quickly what is troubling you...."His tone was serious now. He is like th
Flashback"Yaar, Minal I am here talking to you, and here you are sitting engross in your books.....put it aside......"Ishal said getting irritated. She takes the books from Minal's hand and puts them aside."What's this aapi.......let me study..... I will listen to you later on......"Minal said getting frustrated, she was taking her books back but Ishal has put them far away from her approach.She always does this, whenever Minal sits for studying she makes her engaged with herself in talking.Unwillingly, Minal has to keep listening to her talking. "Listen yaar, you know that till I don't tell you about myself I don't feel at ease......"She said innocently staring at Minal. On that, Minal feels great love for her sister."Right aapi, tell me, I am listening....."She gets up from the bed and stood. There's no other way with her other than listening to her sister."You know Minal, today what happened in the university .....he tells me that I am very nice."She started saying her
She slightly wriggles in her sleep to open her eyes. Her eyes are still filled with taking more sleep.At night, after talking with Shah Zain when she came back to her room and lay for sleeping. It seemed as if sleep was wiped out of her eyes.How much a great fact she came to know about herself. All these were enough to take her sleep away.For some time, she tried to sleep, but when sleep didn't come then she had to take sleeping pills, unwillingly.She always does this, whenever sleep didn't come to her, but Shah Zain was not aware of this. For that reason, her eyes are still feeling sleepy.Taking some effort, she gets up to sit on the bed, she draws her hand on her face.To look for the time as her gaze went to the side table only then her sleep wiped out of her eyes.In astonishment, she is looking at the room. It's not her room. In fact, it's not the room of her home.She started inspecting herself that she is present in the bed. But this place is unknown to her. In place of as
"Mama, finish this.....now what's still left to purchase... I am very tired now...."Walking on the road, Minal addresses her mother. And she had asked her that question at least three times in a row and, as usual, her answer was the same."My child, little things are still left to be purchase....then after that we will go home...."Looking at her daughter's tired face, she smiled."Mama, you find just this day to come to market, it will be better if I go to the office today..... I don't get tired there that much doing work the way I am feeling now coming here with you......"She said making a poor face.Today she was on leave. Don't know why but she doesn't feel the courage to go to the office today because of what he said yesterday.Every time his talks were keep ringing in her mind. Getting scared from that condition, she came with her mother but now she is cursing herself for coming here."My child, you were on leave today so I think why not we do shopping today, otherwise before
"Dad, what happened, why are you sitting here alone....."When exhausted Shah Zain came to his home, he saw his father sitting in the lounge alone, so he came near to his father."Dad I am talking to you......"When Mr. Hassan didn't respond to him, he then put his hand on his shoulder to address him.Mr. Hassan who was deeply engrossed in his thoughts, came back to his senses when Shah Zain addresses him."Yes son,....... nothing, I was just sitting free.... you tell me when you came?"He wiped his face with his hand to make himself look normal.All his day went in tense, he was not getting what he should do. As far as he knows that Kawish will not harm his daughter but still he has to take back Noor, as soon as possible."I just came now, why do you look so tense, is something happened?"He sits beside him on the other sofa and gazes at his father with inquisitive eyes."Nothing, everything is alright..... you tell me, how was your day?"He started talking with him about here and th
"Minal I was not expecting this from you, a lot of things happened and you didn't urge to let me know......have I become that stranger for you?"Not only his voice but also his eyes were filled with an accusatory look for her.In the morning, he came from his house to Mrs. Nimra's house in order to meet her but he was surprised after finding their house locked.Where they both can go that early in the morning without informing him. In worried, he dialed Minal's number.He was not able to speak for the moment when he listened to the news from Minal. After talking with Minal he moves toward his car hurriedly and came to the hospital.He took a sigh of relief after finding Mrs. Nimra's sound and safe but he was really angry with Minal for not letting him know about what all that had happened."Believe me I was calling you but you called me before that....."Minal feels guilty after listening to him.She confessed it is her fault for not informing Kawish but at that time she didn't give
