....hardly after ten days had passed that the water was back , into the streets and the open fields flooding them covering them leaving everything soiled damp drained out dirty, swelling up fermenting stench filled up the entire area , cracks and bumps appeared , trees and other plants chipped and flaked resembling turtle s shell blotchy and bloated, the surrounding greenery and foliage was completely wiped out as if life was squeezed out from them , on the broken dried out wet dead branches all that was left was torn clothes hanging and stuck , shoppers, nests of strange webs of residual hooked up amidst the branches, traces of water receding was visible like maps on the uneven houses some higher built others lower in size , their doors and windiws painted by the floods stamping its signatures , even after ten days the walls smelled of wet soil and river water, the resident natives were slowly catching up with their routine life

Wrong number huma urdu digest
.., 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

...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

Nobody listens what others care about
Make them understand
Engrossed always in the pleasures

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 ,

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

...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

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
