... ali wss  running on the west side on a weekend , it started raining once again , he quickly ignored the rain uncaring, his mind was clear of all tyoes of worries , his focus was to complete sux miles run  , he reached the point and remembered missing mendy , long ago he  had met mendy on this very point,  with her disappearance had disappeared michael harrison , when he went missing mendy had long before   his disapoearance had gone missing , thinking about them he reached  the building  and crossed the marine parade  to head tiwards the underground  parking 

He did not have to wait long , the doir opened and a dark blue  porsche apoeared, he wss inside before the gates shut, he knew where the bmw was  standing , the garage was  isolated, he reached the car and glanced around , he bent to look at the wheel as uf he wss removing dirt from it, he took out a handkerchief and a folding knife from his picket , he scratched some dirt out from the wheel and put it on the handkerchief, he slid down under the car and emerged oth other side and walked tiwards the gate, he reached the infra red device , he waved his hands , the gate ooened he started running  once again

...the  evening  had passed in may, it was eight thirty , they were on their way  , there was enough spare time , they. Carried with them  a coffin and four shovels in their slow moving green van , the colour of the sky changed , as it began to rain , they had come without michael yesterday

Are we there asked jack like a child

 Just about there  answered robu who was driving  and was less drunk than others, they had crossed three  bars on the way out of four

We will be there shortly josh spoke , a deer was seen crossing the road in the headlights , the road  lead towards the jungle, now they crossed a small white cottage , michael lay unconscious on the back on the floor , i should take one more drink,  his tongue stumbled words falling on each other , had he used his brains he would still be  sane and conscious

gazal wasim bareily

..styles of pleasantries will be flung across

Distorted meanings will be  deliberately extracted

.

Let the storms take over, nothing can be carried away

Real fear is when courage  and spirit is broken down

.

The ground I stand on is my true identity

Just that you are blind  to recognize  it completely

.

We are to live on in history of mentalscapes

Not printed material on periodicals to be torn away

.

Decisions lay entirely on ettiquettes of the gathered

Who will be thrown out  of sight of the gathering

.

You are merely a character limited in fiction

Remember that before you are discarded forgotten 

angna phool khilengey

.ammi just stop it my feet are swollen , if arram could have got her way she would have simply sat down in the middle of the market , she was absolutely tired going around the mall shopping for the best choices  , selecting and rejecting 

Yes. i am also tired , i am done , lets come back tomorrow again, sadya agreed quickly, 

But before going back home feed me some good meal  somewhere good,  arram quickly  stuck her demand  , at that very moment asya s mobile started ringing 

Your mother in law is calling, , here hold them , she briskly  transfered all the bags  towards her, yes appa  her voice was completely  focused

gazal ...wasim bareily

..the house i live in  is not my home

As  much as my favourite haunt

.

Moments made between hearts is the glue

To escape formalities unwanted

.

How could someone  accept me

As i never accepted anyone

.

To keep alive relationship

Shedding a few tears  is enough

.

Roads follow  mapping the feet walking

.spent is the era of fearlessness alone

.

Swallowed i have oceans of sorrows

Never do i spill a drop of tear

.

How much i repent saying that

If possible forget all that what happened

.

Dont let ego ever stop you

Just come back when someone calls you

..she .on the final moments  of separation  from shehzad , even after shehzad got married to her younger sister sanya , she constantly kept on toying with the idea  that there never existed any relationship of love between them , whatever it was  he was merely a friend , her own contact  and thats all, she was doing her best to console her hurt feelings , even if something  existed  between them it was rotted and bitter , she wanted to forget it , her full focus was only on her life , hard as it was she had to move on in life, but some time later she started feeling she was a fool ,  she had been a real fool to fall in love with her own boss

Three months earlier she had entered that office  of waqar shah as his secretary , excited like a school girl 

ye fashion

....fashion is a term that relates to self love and appearance it is meaningful    in a different way, to present oneself in a personalised custom made appearance totally different from others, human nature is weird , it gets easily tired and bired by any monotonous  style  quickly ,,  there is a natural pattern  yet  there is uniqueness   in individuality, everyone  secretly desires to  dominate  others by their own exceptional  presence,  bollywood has spread  like corona   infecting  the streets and commoners  , nobody stays untouched by fashion  which quickly  captivates minds of the majority and as quickly  gets down like fever to catch something new , styles of walking talking and dressing up tickle imaginations  of the ordinary who dream of becoming extraordinary  by copying the new styles  which dont last a week

Girls are seen in strange   hairstykes  whether they look goid ir not but they do attract attention , children from wealthy families  look rich in expenssive attires branded  shoes and get ups 

Communication in english is trendy  and always in fashion for the elite  considered classy  in high end lifestyles, though urdu is one of the most beautiful languages everything sounds romance in urdu

Latest fashion is boys look girlish delicate

Women appear masculine muscular

...  douglas had retired five years ago as  police officer , yet he had not forgotten the narrator whom he believed to be  accused  in  a  reported  case of   a girl gone missing seventeen years ago  when he was  still working in los angeles homicide department , he suspected the narrator had a hand in her disappearance , ,daughter of doughlous was close friend of the missing girlfriend of the narrator,  most probably the seed of doubt was sowed in the father s mind by his own daughter but there was no evidence against the narrator

 It was logical when he was on the job but he became agressively active to find oroof of his involvement in the girl s disappearance after his retirement because  he was no longer  lawfully tied back  now he works for a private detective with licence   as a client to find out what really happened to nikol vance, the missing girl friend of the narrator, , shaun doughlas was  passionately  using his power and money and expertise   to catch the narrator

...sayad was one of thise unfortunate  children  who was raised in a orphanage, how did he reach there, who placed him there, who were his parents, these were a few questions he gad no answers to nor dud he bither to find out , he was not unhappy to be living in an orphanage because he was completely unaware if the world outside the restricting walls of the orphanage, he was nit at all acquainted with the feeling of happiness , he was just familar with a strange  disatisfying  feeling all the time mussing something in life, he had no drwams no desires no spirit  , simply a plain life routine a system to follow  regularly punctually 

pearls of wisdom

....if there is a possibility if forgiveness , avoid revenge and force

.

Make your heart an evergreen forest of joy, birds of peace and love will nestle in

.

Your real wealth are those friends who sincerely  pray for your happiness  even in your absence

.

Good hearted soul needs not search for peace, they are themselves refreshing  like pure sunrises 

mashal abar karam hy tu

...sayad   very happily emerged from  danyal s house , the scene outside the fate was enough to  make him nervous , his pet dog tiger had sneaked out   the gyard was  unable to see him , tiger stood before a kid  growling at him  visciously, the kid was frightened to death , the innocent kid  was screaming at top. Of  his loudest voice

Sayad himself was scared of digs  but now seeing the child in trouble he decided to take action regardless of  any  unimaginable result , he quickly moved forward and oicked up the child , 

Thankfully the dog s memory was good and he recognized his master s friend  sayad quickly, tiger sat down  on his feet wagging his tail , by then the guard also joined them 

Khan baba where have you been , dont you realize how ferocious this dog is, he can attack anyone  yet you failed to stop him from getting out of the house gates

..are you nervous  

His question startled her completely

No not really nervous  just feeling out of place  she spoke frankly

Its fine to be nervous but dont cross the line over to be scared  or you will lose your own self  explained salman 

No, i wont appear scared not even for a moment , farha looked quite confident , her eyes had cold sparks of passionate fury

Okay all set , lets start then  salman instructed  and turned towards his mobile  his face a mask of solemnity

Farha nidded in agreement  and tightly covered herself in the chadder  and also covered her face , nothing on her face was vusible except her eyes , her whole body covered in the chadder

Asslam allekum my viewers , i am salman ali  and you are watching such ki awaz

page 7

..salman  stood outside an ordinary house in that low middle class colony, the apparent  condition of the house narrated  a story of lack and depriviation, it was a poor victim of neglect , though beautifully designed  attractive spot yet  uncared for , he glanced vaguely at the door  which had lost all its  real grandeur and rich colour  to the multiple layers of dust stuck on it, he habitually scratched his head and mumbled this us the address all right , mobile shiwed green tick  for location  searched  salman wearily looking around once more walked closer and pressed the bell , a few minutes later a youngush woman emerged from within, she was about seventeen , fair   plump  clad in brown , bright black eyes  were filled with sadness  with supressed  fury

chamkiley andhere

...his mind wss slowly and steadily moving from the depths of darkness towards  the lights 

Lights were incredible  like fliecs of glow worms  simply shimmering   imoressing their presence  pulling him towards consciousness , his eyelids heavy with unimaginable weight  unable to open  besides weight a strange sensation of inhuman rustling was  forming  inside his mentalscape, amidst all this chaos he tried to make a noise and disturbance to attract attention but all he felt around him was stark silence, the shimmering lights of glow worms started to turn into flashing lights if  an aircraft  descending  for arrival, he gsthered himself to regain coordination of his limbs and bidy but failed  to move , he discovered he was tightly bound to stretcher  , the pain was shooting up in waves from his legs 

Where am i he asked  himself barely audible

Where ever you are , you are alive a ripple of satisfaction ran down his body

page 303

... that very evening hamid sat with gloria  in a family cabin unwillingly listening to a one sided lecture , uninterested because of gloria herself,  exceptionally beautiful to look at but during conversations she would scowl and purse her lips  as if ready to sneeze, this woman had  killed his interest in women   , in the matter of women his feelings equalled lord byron s strange  feelings of cynical disillusionment

He was doing his best to tolerate her patiently, strict instructions from faridi were clear he was to keep an eye on gloria

What are you thinking she asked him

Did you see any evening newspaper 

I only follow morning newspapers

Last night colnol faridi s car was found on sharnaroad , on the back of. The   front seat a dagger  was stuck  and some blood stains around

Oh, it implies an attack on him but where is he

Faridi,  sighed hamid long and deep i hope to find his dead body somewhere in a  river or drain by late evening

page 299

......captain hamid stopped breathing and quickly lay down flat on his chest , the roof was completely flat , his caution  saved him from being seen from down beliw , though the night was absolutely pitch dark but it was clear and ooen area  and moving  silhouettes are visible too

He stayed so silent for a long while and then started crawling forward, reaching the side of the terrace he glanced diwn  over the edge, the entire yard was covered in dark  yet tge floor was visible, the distance between the floor of tge yard and the roof was barely ten feet, it was not difficult to reach the yard, then he turned to move towards a room  from its windiws blue light was casting outside, hamud oaused before the room thinking something  and then pkaced a hand on the door, the door was not licked from inside, he very slowly opened the doorand without any hesitation stepped inside, his face looked quite ugly in that blue light, thick beard  on his face  and  long moustaches stooping  on his beard

muhabbet fateh alam

.....asfand  cut off the xall and ramin s heart  filled with venom of envy, she swiftly punched the numbers of mahi , pleasantries were exchanged and she quickly began  pouring out her  hatred..what do you think , that you will succeed in  in this , never  can you win, asif is mine just mine , he belongs to no one else, her vouce was high pitched shrieky, mahi patiently heard her bitterness to the end before coolly replying  of course he is yours, who is trying to own him , but her screaming shrieking yelling did not  stop, 

But what was the point of it all

Of what

Of having a child her annoyance was  genuine

But.. mahi was about to tell her the truth when ramin cut her words in the middle  and snatched the conversation rolling on her side of the story...no ifs and buts , just listen very carefully to me she spoke on top of her highest pitch on the scale, i have just now spoken to asif he is flabberghasted  , the child could destroy our relationship completely, 

Mahi  removed the phone from her ears to look clisely at ramin doubting her mental condition, why was asif  lying, but she first had to speak with him befire clarifying the point to her

...the first beat of the tradional dholak had officially announced the wedding mood had started, now their merriment would outlast the night,  vibrant  infectious rejoicing would fill the whole village , every morning would bring loads of new arrivals of guests, chacha ji s horse cart standing under the old  rosewood tree  happily  transferred all the lorry passengers to carry them to the wedding house on  the  gravel path, they were ujalas guests  normally but all the women folk  got involved  in showing hospitality , during the night more music more entertainment more dancing gidda  and more sleeplessnights

Taya ji  had several city acquaintances, they all were expected to reach   with their families, one was specially arriving all the way from dubai, taya ji was  going crazy  and  forcing others to  get ignited with the same weird spark   to receive his friends and families

incredible

...you are so fabulous and beautiful, people love you , everyone wants you, the thorn mournfully added everyone hates me and avoids me

The blossom spoke 

Tge hateful  desires of odious world do not matter at all, i love you and live with you all my life  unless and untill someone plucks me

.

Sukrat was asked what is more cruel than death

Socrates answered life is more merciless , one has to go through pain and sufferings , death is a release

.

A wealthy man was afollower if socrates,  arrogantly claimed god was great and always fulfilled all his desires  thankfully

Socrates replied he was thankful  to god multiple times because  he had no desires  at all

hattakizzat

...i never heard this story   in this way  ever before, filip s voice was louder than normal speaking voices

A bar member of the club sitting on a stool turned to look at the source of that loud voice , it was a fruendly argument of friends so he did not give it much importance  and cheerfully engrossed  himself in conversation with a sportsman  beside him 

As usual the weekend morning  drew more crowds of club members and golf players  the spaces quickly filled up leaving no space to squeeze in  more crowds

Club members had been present in the dining hall for quite some time , second rounds of drinks were circulating , they sat by the glass window watching at the  grounds outside clearly , some players were still there playing golf , both filips and mike had finished their golf  sessions early  that weekend morning and now sat there enjoying their drinks in the golf club bar  gossipping

... it was the first time ever in his professional life  that  his aim failed  had to hit the target, it was definitely not his fault, not his mistake  , it was good fortune of the target and considerable misfortune of his own  the trigger was squeezed here and the target bent with a sneeze   there. as a result the bullet was released  certainly accurately towards the target but the target remained absolutely unharmed and the bullet hit someone else

He was a sharp shooter, sniper  , professional killer  paid to eliminate anyone at a certain  ammount, he was perched on a  under construction site for past half hour aiming his sniper scope that had basically two functions to perform first to frame the target and second to  pin point the target, , today his simple task was to shoot a high profile politician down

mazlum

..dear tanya someone has come, open the door, tanya was sunk deep in her pile of books her head lowered when she heard her ammi s voice 

Ammi please you open the door yourself i am studying  

Dear  daughter the stew will burn  otherwise i never disturb you while you study, meanwhile another knock on the door was heard, this time it was louder and stronger, as if the arrival  had totally lost his patience

Tanya wrapped her chaader around herself completely before dragging her feet into her slippers towards the door

She was a student  of b a  , her exams were close , college had freed them to prepare from home , she was seriously  studying day and night at home, she was good in all subjects except english which was  testing her comprehension

Education   from government  schools had left her weak in english,  besides  graduation level englush was quite   high in srandard  , it could kill anyone , she needed professional help a private tution at home preferably but family s financial condition did not allow it

zaroorat

..the scottish people are notorious for  being misers

 During a church service the donation pkate was circulated, the scot  placed one pound   , the priest was surprised and exclaimed one soul was saved from going to hell

The scot put one more pound on the  plate and asked if now two souls were saved from going to hell

The father confirmed   it was exactly so

The scot  explained there was no  need of the pounds on the plate any more and  picked up the pounds and  slipoed them into his own pocket

ishq natamaam

...he was the chieftain of his tribe , shamsher khan  was still energetic at seventy plus , he had been the head of his tribe since his father  died thirty years ago and the burden shifted onto his shoulders, 

It was his bad luck   at seventy one  life  suddenly presented him a turning point, he went out hunting accompnied with his security and surrounded with his staff , he spotted a  deer and  shot him  down but the wounded deer attempted to escape by   jumping   out of sight, the tribal chieftain  predatorially  chased the  escaping prey and slipoed from the slope crashing down  thirty feet below , he was alive but his back was badly broken, he since   was bedridden

pardes

 she banged her both hands on the dholak with excited energy and rani s dholak started officially for the function, her lovely melidious  voice filled the whole  area full of women , it was a massive open yard  that  comfortably accommodated entire village , all the chairs were arranged  in the back  outlining the  gathering  , the rooms were emptied, qamar was  snooping around with his group of boys  trying to have fun , bamboo cots and bamboo handmade stools were arranged towards the womens section , all the aged and elderly  occupied them , all the teenage girls and other younger women settled down around the dholaki beat to enjoy the show , it was the first opening scene  of the dholak beat kept  fifteen days ahead of the  wedding  it was a tradion  followed for genrations

Folk gidda  also started from this  dholak opening beat, older women folk  started the dancing  ,  then gidda started  and one by one younger girls joined the elderly  women  on invites , dragging laughing teasing  others to join in speaking singing  tumbling over each other falling  over each other  enigmatically brightening the wedding house , girls are birds , chirpy and sweet adding so much  meaningfulness to life itself , girls are birds  who decorate homes and surroundings  before flying away, bari barsi begins with the first dholak beat   double meaning funny  songs are sung and every profession  is presented in a twisted distortion of memes

...amma ji,  please take your nedicine, salma heloed her mother in law to sit up and swallow her medicines, amma ji was unable to get up for four days , on shammo s  engagement day amma ji had overeaten and got indigestion now it was troubling her, it was impossible for her to swallow anything , her burning ulcer was  making her miserable , all the heavily oily fried  greasy foods had activated her inner  illnesses , amma ji could not even take a step without someone s support, it was  her old age related weakness and  deteriorating health  problems issue  but even nimmo and shammo were  no better

It was an occassion of happiness , both had completely ignored bhabhi and with all their hands  stuffed themselves with the  delicious feast, both had reached their ends , unable to breathe , , they  were diagnosed cholera, anwar had taken them to the dispensary and that is completely a different story

Thankfully the lady doctor was still present at night at ten , who immediately   took action and emergency treatment started on them with  putting them on drip, amma ji was given medicines with follow ups and several more prescriptions, when nimmo and shammo  s condition slightly improved  amma ji   gave them a generous verbal thrashing

...it was a courtroom scene , aniq ahmed stood  in the witness box , he was accused  of killing his elder brother, aniq was a necganucal engineer  just returned from quwait

 His lawyer mirza beg  opened his argument  in favour  and defence of hus client anuq that he was not a criminal, that anuq was a decent law abiding  citizen   who lead a peaceful life , it was a conspiracy against him , his eldef brither was murdered and anuq was   falsely accused  

The  prosecutor   looking at the judge  sarcastically  cut in that his friend and colleague had used  terms   decent citizen and false charges , he must explain  from  which country  has his client come and  is he a national of this country, what is the basis of  this case being false  and a conspiracy

The defendant  priceeded to explain  his client   was  deliberately brought here  , there is no witness , murder is not an easy casual  thing to do specially of your loved ones ,  there is no motive  ,  and he will prove it in the future proceedings

tarqeeb

... the mood in the courts of california was extremely hostile, the lawyer was absolutely certain his client will lose the case, he duscussed the matter with hus senior  in the firm   if it would be  a good idea to gift a most expenssive cigar box to the judge who liked cigars , the senior lawyer structly prohibited him to  do it because  the judge had a reputation if being very honest and wuse, the bribe could even  harm their own  case 

On the next hearing the lawyer  won the case , the senior lawyer  reminded him  the cigar box would have  gone against them

The lawyer laughed heartily, he actually had sent the cigar box to the judge but from the   rival lawyer

... the son was fast asleep , mother reached his pillow side  and spoke dear son get up now its too late already eight, you have to go to school

No , i am not going to school today

You are  skipping school for two days, its not right , her voice was rather annoyed, why are you avoiding school

When i go to school all the children and teachers hate me, i dont like being there, after all what s the point in going to school

My dear child go to school because now you have turned fifty two, now you are the principal of the school, , these days ghost schools and ghost teachers are in great trouble

You will have to see the sights impossible to see

Empty promises  dont measure it up

Burn either in hell or burn the gatherings

No flame is questioned  where to burn

Doors of prayers  have shut tight before you

No live  complaints are to be risen loud again

We are one of the wealthy in town

Rules are made for others to follow

Yet the loan of   soil is never repayable

...what all has happened

Chaudhary sahib if you are aware of the incident of madam being poisoned  then you should not be asking this  the investigator spoke sharply

Who are you he asked

Ask this question from gul zeb 

You are a weird person he glared 

Ruby  spoke challenging his glares everyone was flared up only he was in the dark

Perhaps he was ready to  ask more rounds of questions but  at that very moment noor came in , first rahel  got down  to usher rawa aside towards the haveli so the poor kid wont have to see the dead bodies lying there, gul zeb walked up to that spot , she then turned to the investigator  explaining she had called the police all that they could do now was just wait

sheri vohti..city wife

....anwar wedded a city girl and brought her home , what followed was a storm and commotion

She was not arrogant nor did she have any airs, not that  she prided in her beauty and intelligence because she was just ordinary, she did not treat her village in laws like dust nor did she order them around because she was a city creature, she did not spend the entire day lazing about in her bed not that she avoided helping  in the household chores but she was different , she was born and  brought up  in tge city and that made her completely unscceptable, she was invisible to the family

page 47

.. several days had passed after the incident, new year had begun  but the life was still the same old self, tgere was a wedding in sabiha s  granny s household , except dadi and chachi everyone left for the function, sabiha stayed vack home , her finals were started , she cooked the meals and served dadi hers in her room  before going to her own room to study 

It was around eleven thurty at night  when she craved to gave a cup of hit refreshing tea and reached the kitchen to find all the foid was there untouched

From that day onwards  there was no talk between chachi and herself , first she thought of keeping the foid in the fridge  and make and take her tea to her room  but an idea hit her mind and sge headed towards chachi s room , before she could enter the room she heard her chachi sneezing and coughing , she turned right away from there

from previous

...who are you to question

Are you blind, i am standing in the patio of the haveli  so i must be holding some definite responsibility and authority, now explain yourself, he raised his tone  harder, the other doubtfully looked at his companions, he understood he was getting ready , he quickly  measured the distance between  the spot he stood and the entrance  before vanishing inside  and shut the entrance door  with all his strength, befire the outsiders could blink he was inside  locking up all the  bolts , the door was banging violently from outside , ruby s voice rose from upstairs

Asad whats happening

Its not the police but the invaders attacking us asad screameD   , followed by noisy commotion in the haveli

Ruby  yelled back , i am coming downstairs , she quickly reached down floor

...it was getting dark as the evening settled down, the darkning sun was about to sink over the western horizon corner, a man was dead at the doctor s place , the other was carried away by the police , perhaps to the hispital , gul zeb was  locked up inside her bedroom ever since she had arrived, ruby had tried to  speak to her  but she would not come out of her room , he was mentally oreoared for anything and everything , he was soeculating what all  could malik zaman do to get hus men released, so he came to sit down in the corridor a few minutes before  to  pass on messages to ali  whatever developments were happening, once he had already spoken and now he simply sat there observing and absorbing

... the light has come  for certain

Torch of knowledge is lit for certain

Someone is approaching heremy heart is resonating 

Do me a favor today

Show kindness to me 

Hurting others is a common trend

Arguments  specially  norm practice

One who succeeds  in this world

Surrounded he is with envy

Someone was there in the middle

Conversing was all remotely done

One ete  feels overwhelmed  

The other is flooded with emotions

Almighty is remembered since

Youth has wilted  and  life on threshold

My  beloved met me as if

We were long lost  life  enemies

...yasmin , where are you a high pitched rough voice asked pointed directly to the girl

She was a beautiful delicate    charming person, her nature seemed agitated disturbed and hyper eager excited

I am by your side, where else can i go , startled  yasmin  emerged from her day dreams , she  detested her father calling out for her at that very moment , with her eyes open she was dreaming of romance  , though still not an adult her dreams were getting more saturated with  desires and mentally she was more mature than her age , she dreamed of becoming ripe deliciously  youthful  , cause commotion in the world of beauty and attraction , someone  like a brave charming price rich and mighty fall in love with her, in most    selected  poetic words he would express hus love for her, yasmin s day dream had reached only till thus point  when her father had called out for her not giving her time to develop her dream story

Daughter, i  have lost my eyes not my brains and life

...a large group of boys was seen on the road  leading to the  garden  near the jamya masjid in nishapor, , they were all    same age group  returning home after their classes were over in the madrassa, the trees on either side of the road casted pleasant cool shade in the summer heat , it was one of the most. Likeable area 

What s wrog, what makes you so silent asked abdulrehman  from yusuf   a boy  walking by his side , both were sons of goid well off families

Not really silent, just thinking about something explained yusuf simply

What are you thinking about  abdulrehman was curious now

Pointing towards a boy walking along in the group he explained i am thinking about what has he done , this was a large suzed rather stronger than all briad shouldered their age boy

Right  abdulrehman reacted unhappily this was becoming his everyday routine

ek cup chai

....it was the month of december , in the begining the winter chill was slow and quiet not noticeable at all , the intensity was missing  but as the month  unrolled so did the winter, the sun hardly showed up,  always  the dark grey sky  looked gloomy

For the past four days waiting for the sun to appear sabiha did not   plug in her washinb machine  but today seeing there was no change in the outside grey sky she   rebeled and defied the rude weather and decided to use her washing machine, doing the regular household laundry felt a  harsh punishment in this bad weather, she looked at the mountain of dirty laundry  as if it was  a prifessional  task

...he  had gone to the nearby village to see a friend , he reached home after dusk , as ge stepoEd inside tge gall the furst thing he witnessed was his chachaji followed by  red fuming faced baji , chachi was weeping covering her face in the vack of the room  amma sttod stunned silent in z corner

Perhaos they were  in a hurry to leave for somewhere , the whole scenario seemed   odd enough to ibrahim just fir a fleeting miment he got confused

What has happened, where ars you all going , he was  completely mistifued and could not phrase his questions in a better way

This news had sent waves of rejoicing in the whole household , but abba had absolutely different ways of working , he was old timer and  totally loyal to malik sahib, he had  given all his life to his family, his life was commitment  to loyalty

Bad is bad , bad is good how to say that

They are merged into my breaths , heart , glances

Separate from me they are how to say that

No interaction with  the not  so likeminded

Yes love has blessed us so

Not a word of complaint can be found

Mirror says so different you are from the world

Why more like us sre not foiund

Withered completely are blossoms like children

Undernourished  uncared for

Seeki courteous  gatherings because

Life  s enjoyments are  not for all

Lesson for shirkers  is blunt

False tokens of profit  also escape

What can be mentioned of the homeless

Life is real    not easy for all

But older mature men keep their women happy  argued ehsan  and the agressiveness of their women  i did not notice but it completely depends on our daughter to get along with them , mahi s father sighed coolly

Not neccessarily  that things would go as you think because many a times mature men become crazy and behave weird  when their wives are extraordinary beauties and very young, they become illogical and psychological
