  Slight sound made him turn to look at her dressed in banarasi sari with matching necklace  and make up  decorated  against the doir  , her intense annoyance radiated from distance , he turned vack to the cabinet searching for his things ,  his  unconcerned  attitude   irritated her

You are nit ready already

Why, where are we supposed to be going

He pulled out his favourite shirt

Are you really that naive  , your brother is getting married today

But i have already explained yesterday i am not at all interested in participating in this wedding

Doosra admi

 Basira was extremely distressed that night , little azaz who had arrived just recently into the world   , not forty days old  lay beside her cosily  motionless staring fuxedly up at the ceiling not sleeping not wailing just silent , basiro was frightened it had never happened before  little azaz either cried ir slept peacefully

But that night  he would simply  not shutting his eyes, his gaze glued to the ceiling was surprising and worrying her , that small infant ought to spend time mostly sleeping or crying awake but he was not  normal  and seemed to stare incessantly up at the ceiling

Mother woke up to find basiro  awake and sitting up

What happened asked mother

Amma  , little munna is not his usual self today

, he did not cry nir slept all night , he refused milk , he is just staring up, his eyes not  not turning away from the ceiling, basiro was scared  perhaps it was  black magic  or spirits shadow casting a spell on him

Akhri safar

 When  it was time to get rid of her husband nikole started  looking for answers online like she would buy a pet  for  herself, it was not really a big task but it was not easy either, she despararely scanned sites for the person she needed, naturally finding a killer  and getting his services is a very delicate matter, more delicate than keeping a personal shopper

First of all getting her husband killed was unlawful , for such unlawful criminal activities caution and secrecy was imperative  even when using the dark web to advertise  it , she had read about the dark web on elin s paperback book  when he was gone for his medical check up , she was there waiting for him in the car , elin was always frantic  worried  about his health , a casual sneeze would make him scared , he would rush to see a doctor  imagining serious problems like cancer or brain tumour to return to tell nikole the doctor says it was just seasonal , nikole lost all hope of his being dead  of any  disease

 ...sanbal, it was ammi calling for the third time

Tanhaìi

 ...deep was the  sorrow of isolation

I was river  river river  alone

Unable to control singke tide

I played with the deadly storms

Tiny iota of isolation

That stuck along 

Left was i alone by friends and known

Only loneliness accompanied

Dried up the brancges of happiness

Blossomed sorrow  s bloom

Prayers filled  isolation complete

Fear of gid alone existed

Surrendering my soul to the ultimate

It was river of  absolute patience

Defeated was isolation

Transformed was isolation to blessing

Divine settled inside my heart

That i was looking fir outside

That loneliness was my paradise

I am  alone absolutely alone
