Khala had trained elder bhabhi very well because she always believed she belonged to them, bhabhi quickly within a week changed from her newly wedded bridal to practical gear and took full charge of tge whole household though she remained lonely all her life, amma instead of giving her elder bahu credit for being so strong kept her under her foot treating her like dust, bhai sahib remained helpless silent witness watching his beautiful young bride being ill treated but the bride would simply smile and shrug off she was accustomed to such a hard life

....where are you, where to find you arises spoke out loud to himself, it was his habit to think aloud, he would sit in a chair tired after his work with his back resting against the back of the chair he spent time thinking aloud with eyes shut, she was also so lost that didn't turn to cast another glance , he looked for her every where but he couldn't find her, three years passed and he couldn't find her, there wasn't any clue of her whereabouts and no track of her location , wasn't she aware of his sentiments, if course she knew of his feelings for her, arise had openly expressed his feelings to her, he looked at her picture in his wallet..zonash, you are very bad, all this was included in his daily routine
Sometimes we unwittingly treat our children unfairly just because we don't trust almighty s judgment and we take control of all the plans and decisions in life and that is exactly what amma did after abba s demise amma took full control of her elder son and trusting nobody not even almighty she took her son's support in all the matters

In future we hope you won't repeat your mistakes
Her face blossomed with genuine happiness
Sge promised silently never to do something like that again to break the trust in one's relationship , that loses all meaning and importance leaving it hollow, she couldn't afford to lose it
Zen smiled and turned his attention to driving and she turned hers to bhai sahib and zibya story, the truth was out, , they didn't deserve that kind of life, who was in the wrong she couldn't tell or perhaps nobody was wrong but both of them needed to be reformed, tasbiha could get a complete family and she herself would be set free from all her responsibilities, she hoped she wasn't being selfish, she was satisfied with her self

....she said she wanted a good life, was it wrong of her to want it,, she hated being an orphan in her childhood, Claudio gave her security and warmth, she gave him the satisfaction of having a most beautiful woman by his side, both of them were equal beneficiaries,
Several marriages are based on mutual interest and are great success and life becomes comfortable
She bit her lip she had never done this kind of fun trip before, it wasn't absolutely right but it wasn't absolutely wrong either , John was a faded memory, , he said all he wanted was a sensitivity that is forever, she pulling him towards herself declared he was just at the right place, he pushed her aside , he didn't want to leave her but larya must trust him he will come back for her again, larya was certain Fred could give her all that she wanted before Claudio returned next week, except that he wasn't rich enough

Sge became happy with Fred within minutes because she liked his natural cheerfulness and body language and he was far more handsome than John, how long could she have fooled herself for that loser who didn't even say hus final goodbye leaving her

....larya sighed a long sigh coldly, he always had an excuse for not spending more time with her
Claudio patted her shoulder did she really believe it he was making excuses, she grumpily explained if she didn't trust him that's what she would think that he was meeting another woman in Naples
That's absolutely correct
What, she exclaimed shrieking as if he had slapped her face
He smiled and replied who else could be there besides his adorable mother, he was a loving son
If she comes to stay with them said larya she would like that in fake voice, she was certain his mother will never like to live with them
But she is too weak and dislikes traveling
Perhaps you should persuade her added larya against her wish holding his hand she said they could be good friends and how much she missed him
Really?
He clutched her hands, he feared she might find someone else and forget him

Uff amma, zen is coming in the evening and she was going to meet one of her special friends, she explained she had forgotten to tell her and patted her shoulder lovingly
Ammi wasn't certain if it was right 8f zen knew of her plans
She felt guilty for not telling him , it was breaking his trust and he will not trust her again, she was taking a risk but tasbiha was also a worry in her life, once her brother s character was introduced to her in laws all would be fine, she nodded to ammi she had informed zen and picked up her mobile to call safer, as she left ammi reminded her zen was coming at seven

He said he would build a brand new house on modern style but that takes time and meantime they would travel , the reason they were there, the town was most beautiful and very close to the airport
Fred showed his surprise how could he stay away from her
Larya looked at her watch and stood up thanking him for seeing her, Fred expressed the pleasure was entirely his, she left without telling him her name
Next day she was back again there, Fred was busy working in the bakery, she kept an eye on him from a distance, he was kept extremely busy and couldn't speak to her but they managed to exchange smiles
She again reached the street at afternoon one of clock, crossing the open door of the bakery she stopped, he was talking to a customer, he just happened to glance her way just for a moment,
She began walking away and felt her whole body quiver realizing it was just a game, she was attracted towards him after John had left she had stayed safe
On either side of that road there stood stone houses and the road was tightly squeezed for the walkkers, larya reached the pizza shop, she got herself an ice-cream and sitting under the shed enjoyed having it, it was then she observed Fred crossing past the fountain, he waved at her

Crossing the bakery she would always take a peek inside, whether hungry or not, the snacks in the display window looked fantastic, seeing John sitting there her heart was again tempted but he was gone without saying a word
For past two weeks a young attractive woman was seen sitting at the bakery counter , that day she saw a stranger s face, it was a twenty five year old young man s face , he had black hair, he resembled John, , he smiled when their eyes met, she didn't stop there , she had no wish to go inside, she knew men are quick to misunderstand

Oh God They are the guests someone shrieked recognizing them and then suddenly the whole thing changed, quickly they were freed , the blindfolds removed, gags pulled out, for quite a while they couldn't see for the blindfolds had numbed their senses, , tge throats were dry and tongues were leather

Sge promised to take care of everything if ge was with her and supportive of her plans, he certainly could never leave her he was always beside her, he spoke in a dramatic manner

During the month of ramzan al mubarak the kitchen work load increased , all things were to be cooked on time and strict punctual schedule was followed, shammo began speaking more and laughed more often

...alham felt she was kept in a basement, it wasn't a typical dark basement but quite a complete and modern style basement equipped with everything she could want, a middle aged maid animal was her chaperone, for the first three days alham screamed and shouted her heart out , Anita comforted her and began feeding her morsels of food , besides animals she could glimpse another person in the basement , a lean tough like iron jamshed who was in his late forties who declared she was to remain detained there for a few more days and spend time watching television and movies

....suddenly Adil s mobile began receiving signals, he was shaken up completely, quickly looked at the screen, it was the same number unable to locate, he receiving the call walked into the other room, he could hear jamshed khan s extremely sharp and shrill voice like a sword cut, he without any frills coldly said to not let his police officer friend sheikh or anyone else put their dirty sniffing noses into the matter, , he had his daughter kept with him like a daughter with dignity and respect until Adil forgot to cooperate his statement faded away with meaningful threat
Adil asked trying to hide his shaking voice what did he want
Simple, fight of eight rounds with the opponent and his bank account will increase in millions of euros
Adil explained it wasn't possible because of his physical condition
Jamshed said whether Adil was interested or not Jamshed wanted this money and win and Adil was fine but he was doubting himself,
Adil explained only last month his back pain was back
Jamshed argued Adil cooked, jogged drove and did all his daily routine himself, it wasn't Jamshed but Adil stubborn to admit it, in fact before Adil all his reports reached Jamshed

....your ammi was elder sister and should have helped them, he never spoke against his ammi, he explained ammi always sent mamu monthly allowance but she avoided showing her sympathy to them because she wanted them to feel comfortable and lead a life with dignity, shammo khala also needed attention, nobody tried to get her married off , in fact she was a full time maid to mami, , she didn't want to lose such a good maid, shammo khala raised their three children, the children got attached to her and slept with her, mamu stayed alone in his own room, to see mamu in a pathetic condition hurt him, but what could he do for him, , ammi stayed connected to them for their sake and nobody in the family of the in laws ever spoke against them
But when shammo khala had lived her life so far there what made you bring her here home to live with us now
He said just because he didn't share something with her means it wasn't worth telling so it would be better not to ask much about it but there was her life and she in a miserable condition and his conscience didn't allow him to ignore her so he brought her home without taking permission from ammi and without informing anyone

....two benefits happened of warning being arrested, one was it became easy to trace exact location of tabana second warsi could help find her safely, if alham was really kept captive by tabana and now it seemed possible in that case tabana was to be taken care of very carefully, arfan also reached the barrier in his private car on a personal unofficial stand, plans and strategies were discussed
By then it turned midnight twelve, tabana was located in a new residential colony in single storey building in shekhopura, according to the plan warsi pressed the house doorbell, arfan was with him in plain clothes, tabana herself opened the door, warsi introduced arfan as his mamu who purely coincidentally happened to meet him on the side street turning, after some initial hesitation tabana let him come in, she made them sit in the drawing room, she couldn't have suspected warsi had brought the police with him

....when Jamil and Adil were some five kilometers away from shekhopura arfan phoned them, he gave them two very important pieces of news, the first was that tabana s mobile was turned on for a few seconds and that warning s phone location was traced moving towards shekhopura , most probably he could be stopped from entering shekhopura, there was already a barrier set up at shekhopura,
It was proved warming had lied, when minutes later arfan informed Adil that warning was arrested something lighted up within him, , by the time the two brothers reached the barrier warning had received a healthy beating, he was looking and behaving helpless, seeing them his color changed several hues
They began questioning him, it was inside the police van standing in darkness, his own Suzuki Mehran was parked on the side of the road
, all he could tell them over and over again that one hour ago tabana called him telephonically to urgently reach shekhopura, he was following her instructions to reach the address and what were the madam and the miss going to tell him was to be told after he reached there

...Jamil spoke to Adil he had instantly comprehended seeing the clipping in the news paper that tabana s family was not right, alham s association with tabana was harmful for the innocent girl but the question is is tabana really capable of going that far and take such an extreme step, at that moment harfu baba panting rushed into the room , he told Adil there were two flower pots found broken by the gate, he asked him to see for himself, , both brothers Adil and Jamil followed the baba to the flower bed near the gate,, the lawn was grassy and garden lights were on , harfu was right someone had stood there been there for the footprints were all around and two mud pots were smashed up, it couldn't possibly be a cat because the footprints belonged to human being s, Adil was forced to think what alham had shared with him there was one warning the manager in the judo club and tabana and her mother were very close to him, ge us their trusted man on whom tabana leaves all the responsibility of the club, Adil along with Jami reached the club, it was a semi commercial area with a modern building, the neon sign if the new age club was shining over the building

....two days later alham briskly entered Adil s room and asked her father if he knew it tabana was in the hospital, Adil was shocked
Alham explained Tabana was admitted she had taken wrong pills, they must hurry to see her but Adil was reluctant and not in a hurry, he was certain it was a reaction to two days ago argument, Rahat the maid was sent to find out what had happened, tabana s neighbors said she took the rat poison , Adil tried to explain to his daughter not to be so quick 8n visiting tabana because she and her mother had a bad reputation, he showed her the newspaper cutting given him by alham s chacha, secretly Adil wanted tabana to get well soon but was scared she could mention his name before the police but her statement cleared him to his relief, , Adil saw for sure tabana drive past in a car high speed several times , once he was standing at the gate but she didn't turn to look at him , hus doubts proved him wrong sge didn't write him any letters nor did she send him any messages or call him

.....what is it
She replied it was an eid card, she apologized for not giving it yesterday , it was because of the chaos but usually such festive cards are given and the beautiful tradition is lost because of digital messaging on mobiles, she enjoyed exchanging greeting cards personally, she placed the envelope by hus pillow
She wore a loose silk night gown yet her figure looked good
Adil was quite bored but still thanked her for being so thoughtful, she must take care of herself for how long will she sit there rubbing his head, he was down with a bad flu, it is quickly spread
She smiled strangely before adding she would be happy to catch his flu, with that she left the room
Adil was even more confused and embarrassed, he slit opened the envelope to see the eid card, a pleasant evening with a tall evergreen tree by the trunk of it sat a girl looking at the earth touching boughs and right below there were printed a romantic couplet
Adil took a long sigh and put away the card , he wasn't a naive man, , he was a man of the world, he was very aware of the path Tanana was walking on, she was approaching like an unleashed uncontrollable flood totally unaware Adil actively disliked it

....she asked Ahmed if she could speak to him , her tone was sweet as he watched Shahid afridi , her question was heard but his eyes were still glued to the television screen as he rapidly began delivering a memorized speech
Does you worry, you are looking gorgeous, his gaze stuck on the television he added she looked a divine creature today in fact more ethereal than the divine, certainly her hair suited her so much, he was testifying her tresses were silk, her hair do was so good she must always appear in that style
She heard him out , it was absolutely useless chatter, she wanted to hit ger head somewhere but checked herself or ge would have given her a cool look and said dear that action looks so good on her
She was ready to argue, all the points he praised her were not valid, but he always responded by admiring her whenever she used sweet tone and asked him if she could speak with him
He had learnt by heart several poetic metaphors to make her happy but watching the television specially afridi Shahid he forgot his lines well learnt and mismatched some phrases
She glared at him and at that very moment Shahid afridi was declared caught out

....catching ber point Adil explained his injury was quite complicated , surgery for such was not easy, thankfully he could manage to walk around, suddenly Tanana asif scowled wasn't something burning, now Adil too could smell the burning , he was heating his food when he had heard the door bell , he forgot all about it engrossed in talking to her, he quickly reached the kitchen , his chicken potatoes were destroyed, holding the dish with a napkin he removed it from the stove, some of tge gravy spilled over his trousers and feet, he felt burning sensation on his left foot, Tanana had followed him into the kitchen, the kitchen was smokey, Tabana quickly turned on the exhaust, ger gaze fell on his foot, she exclaimed the hot gravy had fallen on him, sge sat down on the kitchen floor to wipe his foot with her shawl, embarrassed he pulled back his foot, , she insisted and took off his chappals to clean up his toes, did he have an ointment, he pointed towards a cabinet

.....Adil once more looked at her from head to toe, she had an openness to her way of talking walking and dressing up, she was strong and flexible, players usually have that type of a body, she was also watching him assessing him, she began showering compliments on Adil, he felt probably she wasn't aware of how much she knew herself, his entire career depended on it, , on what dates when where between which teams the competitions were held, how many knick outs and who all declared mot outs, she had memorized scoring and fines too, how remarkable she was
She was an enthusiast, if her dad was alive how amazed he would have been to see him, suddenly remembering something she asked him if he was badly hurt in the accident, it was said he was to for life be in the wheelchair but God forbid you look well
Adil smiled he wasn't as well as he looked, he takes lots if care while walking and sitting down, he had a special bed for him
But sir, you look so handsome and young still, spontaneous her statement was realizing what she had said turned her red, , she carefully added orthopedic and physiotherapy streams were quite advanced, she hesitated why didn't he go abroad for a treatment then she fell silent

He was tired staying on his one side in bed for long, he turned on his side now sambal his wife's portrait was before him, every time he looked at it he felt she was encouraging him to live, in fact now he truly found courage to stay alive
He carefully git up, the wall clock showed one of clock mid day, the maid Rahat was on leave today, she had though cooked for him and left the food properly kept in the fridge, Adil very carefully bent and took his food out from the fridge and carried it to the kitchen to heat it, at that very moment the door bell startled him, he waited a while on the third bell he crossed the lawn to reach the door,
He asked who was there
A sweet voice asked him to open the door, he craned his neck and stood on his stretched toes to see a good looking young woman covered in pretty shawl stood outside the door
