shabbogham ki seher

...she had heard it
Love and death demand whole person,  both are consuming,  this was  happening to her, she had  heard the saying ages ago  that had settled deep into her heart  and now she was  witnessing it and going through it, she didn't want to  fling her Love away nor  did she wish to embrace death,  but both were real  and both readily demanding 

The moment  car turned towards johar town  the little girl  looked at it in sheer disbelief 
Mama  aren't we going to the hospital 
 She  shook her head helplessly, 
You lied to me,  you had said we were going to see baba 
Of course after the check up in the hospital  we are going to see baba 
Just the check up, no needles, rasil demonstrated   by pressing her right fist into the side of her left arm 
Dear you are so brave,  you aren't afraid of needles, she   tried to  encourage herself  instead of the  child 
Not so brave mama that you  so frequently  get the needles stick into me, rail s  voice  now sounded annoyed
