...they will leave  me one time 

It might not be easy to wait for their return

.no need fir any mentor 

.travellers ask directions on the way

They know unworrying  heart

If they leave nothing is gone

Forgetting them is my first priority

If they  ever fill my mind

.tales of love are  interesting indeed

When told  listening is possible

They dont stop anyone  moving

But who cares to visit anyway

Staying away from rotting

Life is enough once lived well enough

Everything was the same  even after ten years had passed ,  it seemed just yesterday, every moment in her memory was as clear as the scenes  before her , how was it possible to  change , the digital screen dispkayed the arrival and touchdown of the flight, a few minutes later she saw him in distance approaching her

 ..sahir ali  felt  pain pangs shooting up in his body, , he had regained consciousness and opened his eyes very slowly bit by bit  looking around, he was in a hospital  room, , on his left side of the bed towards his pillow was a  screen showing  lines  going up and down , his face was swollen , he was breathing through the oxygen mask on his face, for a few moments he could not understand his situation , but as he  recalled his  memory the death wish became intense , he desparately prayed to god at that moment to end his life tgere and then 

But observing he was  conscious the doctor broke into genuine smikes, seeing him he realized the life of shame would drown him

Sahir ali was in his early sixties , good looking pleasant person , his beghum was equally good and amiable , old  timers were mistly simple plain people,  they always got along with their life partners  acceptance  readily came , he too had accepted his cicumstances  though he had wished for someone ekse  more beautiful and attractive

 .., one day he  started driving towards his friend s son s wedding , on the turn he was stopped by two policemen on the bike,  he lowered his window , they asked him  the location of sheikh ramzan, the narrator knew sheikh ramzan  lived in his street , he pointed backwards from where he had emerged, but curiousity  made him ask why they wanted  him,  because the man lived all alone and was a very peace loving person, barely sicialized  and spoke  rarely , 

The bike driver was a constable and his back passenger a sub inspector, they could not  have found the end of the row house in the street without his help, 

There was a complaint made by a woman  on telephone , who gave the number address and the name of the man who was harrassing her

Strange the narrator thought because the sheikh lived alone

Put away that mobile of yours and carefully listen to me  , she ordered  her firmly as she sat down in a sofa

Sighing manu  obeduently  nodded and looked at her mobile 

Tell me truthfully  she loudly sneezed  her sentence half complete  , ramin   she managed to utter followed by a long  fit of sneezing 

Here take this manu opened a box on the table  pulling out tissue papers  before handing them to her

No never does she mention brother , we simply gossip casually like friends on nothing particular

Hena spoke sharply , i have just seen that man there , its so  bothrring me 

He tiredly asked what was wrong in that , first thing is nobody can see us  besudes not every person around can be an enemy

Nervously she muttered that man was special  close to ahned  he knows us well and  there must be a reason he is here

Salman looked in the direction she had gestured near the blockage he ciuld not see him, perhaps he merged well into the gathered crowd

He tried to  encourage her  morale but it did not boost her spirits at all

Ahmed cant hurt us he finally spoke judgementally perhaps his close assiciate was there by chance 

Hena expressed she was feeling relaxed and happy being there but now it was impossible to relax it was tensing her nerves, tge rascal s presence had stolen her  moments of joy

Meantime the fallen debris on the road was remived the blickage was cleared up, shaban ali drove forward , the windiws of the car were black , nearing  the spot  salman looked out through tge dark glass there stood a man gkaring back

 ...my eyes are tearful

My heart heavy with sorrow

My dreams are  unfulfilled ellussive

My own abandoned 

My heart depths of pain

Your  separation is  real

Desire of your presence 

your smiles and frowns 

Signs of love  show 

Dusk of life has come

Tired gone to sleep 

All poetic moments end

 ..blossoms    earn love attention to bloom

Some earn respect  attention  to survive

Make them understand  

Engrossed always in the pleasures  

Give up  your world for others

 ...night  hid its face in the blanket of darkness , that flat  consisted of two room smelled of cigarettes , he sat working  late night on his laptop , turning hus head right and left to release stress , his face  dimly lit in semi darkness and play of light , his fingers  flew over the keyboard , he was busy for very long time 

His mobile  buzzed  , screen lit up , a message was displayed , without wasting a second he read it , his facial expression quickly changed , he shut down his laptop , lifted his soft  mattress  from the cot , opening a  discreet sction placed his laptop there , covering it back again , nobody could ever  know there was a secret pocket in his bed

But now the reality is  absolutely different  ,  she has spent her life s one precious decade with a murderer and she never doubted him

 .. on the other hand manu was completely  disheartened,  it was unbelievable someone actually had rejected her

Both were on the terrace  to exchange their notes , the air was not cold  but quite pleasant , both of them were seated in chairs arranged there under the shade , between   them was  a small table  placed on it was eateries to remive their unhappiness , chips momos and doughnuts , they had not eaten the night before  their dinner , this was their helpline to stay alive 

Heroes appear in dramas and bring so much  positive energy with their performance, but poor girls had not any villain also around their reason for being miserable , picking up momos to her mouth spoke manu scowling

This is real life not a drama  , entry of a dashing goodlooking hero  was not possible in real life situations  ramin was  eating her unhappiness could not stop her from stuffing her mouth with momos , how delicious the momos were , 

Now a days there were no princes , horrible times  , princes used to choose ordinary girls like them and carried them back to their castles and made them queens

 ...kashor arrived unannounced with guests, maliha beghum was flustered , the guests were special  but they were expected on sunday , why today all of.  a sudden at this odd hour, she made them sit comfortably  in the drawingroom before ushering kishor on one side corner  to ask her 

On sunday they are going  somewhere , they rang me up explained kishor  that they were reaching now 

You ought to have called  me up  at least i could have rearranged my  household cindition and  appeared more presentable 

Of course i made so many calls all attempts failed , your phone was shut  off

Ringing up her husband beghum maliha instructed to get  snacks from the market, manu was scolded to quickly appear in her  proper condition  and she herself  entered the drawingroom

 ...jibran had no problem in getting inside the quarters, he was an old player of his game , he could unlock any type of locks merely with a ladies hairpin  within seconds , using his skills he had entered that quarter , in fact he had locked the locks  too , so whever the residents would return home they wont find any difference   in the licks , as he hid waiting inside for them 

For the past one year there was a visible spike in the local robbery landscape 

The cases were quoted as  salary snatching in isolated spots near the banks , , these incidents  firced jibran to think that he was also one of the underworld robber but why only bank clients were selectively targetted

Page 39 huma urdu digest

 ...the three of them had met inside the prison  cell, they had become good friends , they shared  common  , they were all victims of injustice and revenge , they were all sent to prison for similar criminal acts , they personally believed  they were innocent and  accused for crimes they did not commit , society was wrong  in understanding them , each of them had a story  why he turned to crime ,  hurt people hurt others, society  was not supportive when they were harmed 

Nable was not a real electrician but he  could make himself useful  in several ways 

Zahir was unemplyed and absolutely loafer, he belonged nowhere, not invited not acceptable anywhere, he was a useless pawn on the life board of chess

Story of parvez was rather different from nabel s and zahir s , he had no proof of his innocence and sent  to jail, he had suppressed rage to avenge them

Dedh ser huma urdu digest

 ...they were rovbers who did not rob the banks but the clients of the banks, outside the banjs , very cleverly in a refined sophisticated manner, they  always had extraordinary schemes  that the  victim helplessly  became their prey, , these financial  predators  always emerged victorious 

The three of them were working together as a team , selecting a bank  that would be overcrowded, because in peak rush hours on mondays everyone  focused only on getting his own thing done , the pending work after saturday sunday weekends  was a nice  playground full of  busy  people  nobody bothered to pay attention to what was happening around, , it was healthy atmosphere for their execution of their dishonest schemes, token system provided  enough spare time  to clients to stsy away from the counters

Chengez khan stepoed into the camp at that moment , the maid retraced her steps , he sat down on the cot meant for sherya , it was decorated 

We have decuded to honour your beauty  smiled he maliciously at her

She  spat hatefully  

Did you fail to hear me he demanded  his voice carried the heat of rage 

I heard you , you miserable cruel man , i dont answer to men  such as you, you are idious , ending her sentence quickly she spat turning away 

It came as a startle because nobody dare speak to him like this flippantly, it was gard to swallow his wounded pride , because she was helpless and  left at her mercy , she could be beheaded at his  slight  gesture

Your mental balance is  disturbed but your beauty is an attraction  , you are forgiven 

You liar, killer  how can you forgive anyone , to defy you is a crime  but your men have killed harmless innocent silent people , they were as innocent as me who were sleepung in their village  camps  satusfued with life

Girl, we are aware of it  you hate cruelty but lands belong to the powerful, the weak have no right to life

 ... it was an ordinary two storey buiding of a house ,  the outside walls were draped in pink flowering climbers, the wall  profusely  civered with flowers and green foluage  stood by a blue gate , the gate lead to the stairs on the right , there was a  small space near the stairs  where potted flowering plants were arranged carefully  but looked sickly because they were kept dry 

By the neatly kept rows of potted plants  was a wooden door that opened into a  medium sized lounge , sofas and  dining table were  set amidst  untidy chaos 

The simple plain reason of untidiness was the domestic maid did not turn up to clean up the mess for two days

The door on the right was wide open , the room  had  built in cupboards , a single bed on a side with a dressing table next to it , a two seater sofa ,  some one dozen pictyres  pasted on the wall behind the dressing table , the room belonged to manti alias manu , pictures  showing him in his infancy to childhood to teenage to youth  , that implied  the latest  stage of his life was here in his youth

 ....tolerating harrassment is supporting the tirmentor

Silence is acceptance

During   the era of yore the chinese courts  allowed  nomadic tribes to  inhabit their lands, though these tribes main livelihood was robbery  and   other petty crimes, every tribe owned a separste area ,  their life depended entirely on their  beasts , they rode them everywhere , consumed their milk and meat , from the dead beasts ropes from their hair were braided  for tents and  other uses, from their dead skins leather garments were made, shoes and   wraps , bones were  made into  tools and weapons , the fat of the beast was used as a body massage to give them energy 

Milk was preserved fermented  in leather bags  for later use for children  as tonic , trade was centered around the beasts and all the fights for domain and dominance  were woven around them

 Its not probable imran would prove wise all the time 

But there was no other option besides

Instead of choosing to come here we could have followed  them , i wonder where is the steamer gone 

Hopefully it should be within our transmeter  radius, very soon we must be able to get connected to it, though it seems impossible for now

Sehrab asked still lying in his cot   slightly turning his face towards him how dare he come , pinto also gave him  stares of hatred

Nice to see you  have not completely lost your sarcasm  even in that condition , philips clapped his hands  wagging his poisonous tongue

 ...i dont understand  sakina why for farhat you are looking for a suitable match outside your house when the real  groom is present in the family clan , having already what you want and searching elsewhere for it is truly stupid

Nasrin had a fertile imaginative  active mind that produced suggestions with examples for others whether they needed or not was absolutely another matter

Sitting beside sakina her sister in law she quickly explained her practical point of view

What do you mean by looking for a match here and there, when girls become marriageable one has to ask others around to find someone  suitably decent match  and who is this hidden treasure you speak of,  sakina was not sharp and aggressive like her elder sister in law, their husbands were brothers, she was rather meek and simple , therefore she had to  be  explained in detail the simple plain thing also 

Farhat  her daughter was  getting over age  sakina was stressed and worried , she became frantic  hunter  for a groom for her daughter by speaking to everyone she met to find a groom

No woman accepts divided husband , she would run away even before hayat did

Fazal looked pitiably at him  and sighed  , its not certain every time it will happen the same way , i never gave my consent for your first marriage, because you and haya were very young and naive then,

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

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
