..hello sabiha  spoke  ambar

When did you come back from the village asked sabiha

Yes dear  i am back just a couple of days ago  , where have you disappeared  complained sabiha

Nowhere , just home   , same daily domestic routine to follow  , you tell me all about your village tour experience, both got to share their thoughts and even got ready to go out shopping together

Both sabiha and ambar were close friends and cousins , as luck would have it both were married into the same family  and they remained good friends even after their marriages

Next day when saba reached  ambar s place to go out shopping the door was opened by a ten year old , saba was taken aback by sheer surprise, the boy  had the look of a villager

...he was woken up by the morning alarm, he quickly took a shower,  briskly shaved  swiftly dressed up, he felt whatever he was thinking jaqulin had the same thoughts on her mind

Putting on his ciat he looked into her eyes and asked  do people of this house also go to work

Certainly eddie , they are all humans after all like us who need to go to work

For example what kind of work he asked showing deep interest

Perhaps they painted ceremaic pottery she explained

They peeped inside mr richards room 

No sound was heard from the cotton quilt, morning sun shone bright from the window outside, a vehicle passed on the road 

Eddie reached out to remive the cover from the cage, the toy house if mr ricgard stood  there in complete silence, one window currain was raised up , the other curtains were down , he drew himself cliser to the cage  to have a better look insude the cage through the metal frame, curtains flapoed  inside the rooms  with the blowing winds, suddenly a dangerous eye looked back at him from within

...jaqulin  was certain there was one canary in the cage but he knew there were two oarrots, because one canary can not make so much nouse , he was rather  wicjedly overgleeful that old  bad temoered mr richard had kept a oair if oarrots though this habit of jeeping pets did not match at all with his temparament ,  whatever it was making that much noise in the cage kept on the  windiw  their tenant was looking hatefully at it, they were trying to figure it out just by listening what was happening  but it was not easy , from the cage rose strange sounds if flapping   , from beneath it weird kind of rustling and knocking  and tgen the cage slightly shifted on the windiw from its previous spot

Mr richard understood  tgere was audience watching the cage with interest

...in a forest three groups of two hunters each were made to go in different directions to find their luck, two teams returned with their  kill, finally the last team returned slowly with just one carrying  a  dead deer on his back, he was asked to explain where was tony, oh its alright he explained to his friends , he fell unconscious  , nobody is interested in stealing him,  more important was this deer , if left there alone  someone would have carried it away

.. saira was not his true love but his  chosen target but she really believed he was passionately in love with her, she  thought  he would kill himself if he could not get her , this was  an idea put into her head by him , and she could do anything  he asked her to  because she wrongly  believed he was sincere , she did not know he  was  burning in the fire of revenge and hate, the fire of hate and revenge  in which his father was killed followed by losing  his mother, this revenge was possible only because saira s grandmother was  generous to him

The revenge started from that moment when  saira s mother asked his father she wanted to go shopping , his father was her driver, that kind of driver who was completely loyal to the seth sab and his wife

...for some people life is merely a journey, so they keep on  going around from here to there   , such people never  stay  anywhere long enough, they are not destined to  have a  peaceful life  and a home  

Seerat afaq also had such  invisible. wheels   fitted in her feet, she  owned massive property and  possessed  all that anyone can wish for but she was still  the poorest of all, she was the only child of her parents , her mother died when she was just three, her father brought another wife home, she saw gul ma as a new mother not good for her  nor bad either ,  she helped the child , bathed her, cleaned her, dressed her, cooked for her, helped  her  in growing up and raised her  as her responsibity atrended her school meetings as her mother, when watched she feeded her  her meals  with her own hands, that was the only connection between them without any warm feelings, when she was  in the eighth class her father suddenly collapsed moaning painfully
