Old memorues kindled

Faces expressed clearly  emotions

Hidden and carried deep in the hearts

.

.excellence in expressing  eloquence

Increased with each experience if hurt feelings

.

.never be in love with the kinds

Whose very nature is faithlessness

.

.temoting and ellusive this world is

Slipping out of catch  unobtainable far  beyond

.

.heart  feels heavy in gatherinfs 

Almighty , orayers to you i offer

.

.why speak  blaming of strangers

...  that  crazy lover  who has lost hus mind is usually seen sitting by a couple of graves in the  main city cemetery mumbling to himself , once upon a time he was a famius doctor , a reputed surgical specialist , owner of a  massive  private hospital , then one day what happened  was   everything  ended , now he like a spirit  of misfortune   roams the streets and crossings of the town  speaking to himself, his filthy apoearance   old rags dirty face  contradict he ever was a rich  doctor

...located  amidst the vast blues of tge skies  the brightly shining sun casted its  white rays directly  on the ground bathing it in its divine light  , the ground was full of all sorts of people 

 Lush green  trees  and adjoining  roofs of cottages surrounded  the church  with its sloping roof and architecture that stood there befire him  in its full majestic form

Sir vatese church  absolutely fantastic , was a treasurehouse of heritage and renarkable history lineage built one thousand years ago  in german architecture  during the ekeventh century  contained ferman streak  explained serena  in her cool voice, sir vetese was a preacher fearless enough to promote christianity , he was buried  underneath  , king henry then  turned  the building into a chapel , serena was speaking in englush all this long but zaran s expression was clearly  uninterested in historic facts  of the building 

yunhi rstey mein

....she was simply  taking one step after another walking forward without thinking unaware of the surrounding world

Mikal is quite nice , dear he will definitely take  wonderful care of you , on her mental screen the morning breakfast scebe replayed like a film scene 

But daddy i dont want to get married  just niw  , she refysed the proposal at her level , either sides of  the  walkway were  lined up with colourful flowers but sge did not see them 

Why  wont you marry him , its a million dollar contract , they are the top  industrial group ready to  partner with us, spoje her stepmom rina 

Still engrossed in her own worrying thoughts  turned the corner on the street

Your mother is right dear , they are willing to transfer several factories on your name 

She had looked into her fsther s eyes where she realised  rina had successfully   managed to register her own thoughts 

No way daddy, i am not agreeing to any of your business  deals 

She wanted desoarately to lose herself in that crowd forever so that she will never be found again 

plan

...it was absolutely unbelievable he tgought , that russle would do something like that  spoke  faltering christan in a voice  drowned in overwhelming sorrow , from his eyes and face   incredible  misery dripped , pamela looked towards him , he sat there on the carpet his head clutched with his both hands , he was powerless  and collaosed  with  defeat

Russle did absolutely wriong, taking  extrene wrong step is not the right solution to any  situation  pamela gently spoke up, she too was grieving why russle did this

When miserable man  feels its impossible to go on  all ways to get out are shut the end has approached  then he loses his sense of judgement, he cant correctly tell right from wrong  , rubbing his eyes commented christan 

 Its so  sad he was your clise friend , what all are you going through is unimaginable  pamela understoid his  situation  completely, just gather yourself  , pamela s tone was consoling

..in south california  university   he was  given admission and for over a year he was working very hard  earning his living doing part time jobs  overtime , they were not enough but still  he was  managing  somehow , he was a hardworking student like he was in college, he had no other friend besides arthur , he did not want to have a friend circle but then catherine came along into his life

She was their classfellow  but he bever oaid much attention to ger anyway , unlike nirmal girls catherine  was very tall  yet she was proportionate and looked innocent , tge following year both of them represented their class in comoetitions together, both shared  a passion for writing stories , bith were business students but were more deeply interested in literature,  outside their classroom they met a few times and  apparently she was drawn like a moth to him

dushman dost

...introducing catherine to arthur was his life s second most terrible mistake, now every one if you must be thinking what was his first mustake , so let me tell you , the first  biggest mistake  was making friends with arthur, it was when he had just stepoed onto the threshold of youth, he was like any other ignorant youth enjoying every moment in life  unaware of the troubles life   holds  , arthur appeared  with his brown gair  blue pair of eyes  , a clever looking face , the narrator had few friends in college  , he used to sit alone in the classes  and arthur occupied the seat next to him , introduced himself hi i am arthur just got admission yesterday , his tone was informal 

I am christan introduced the narrator himself , i am here from the beginning of the session  , his voice was rather rude , though he was not a loner nor bored it was simpky arthur himself whise prsence christan  actively disliked  then 

Christan, why do you sit so far  cut off from others, silent , dont you have any  friends in the class , his eyes were fixed on a girl sitting two rows ahead , her posture revealed every  attractive  angle  inviting  boys   glances

...rukhsar ridiculed simply  if love was not an error and disturbance in mind 

Sayad murad stopped her gently to speak like that  because she was quoting  ghalib s coupket tge latter half part incomplete aand the twisted version to prove her point, but ghalib wrote it to explain his situation ,it was a narrative of his past experience. 

But i am not at all interested in listening to any piets  love life sge spoke impatiently  and i am not passing any law against love and romance  she added annoyed , nasir was in love  with nazbi  and this disturbed state of his mind sent him behind the bars 

I got my answer to my question , whether falling in love with nazbi was nasir s disturbed mind or a matter of heart  clearly rukhsar was unhappy that  nasir chose nazbi

case

....this particular case gad started somewhere and then soon enough took a different direction all together, and it was considred absolutely normal and not at all surprising, in  matters of law such things jeep on happening all the time , it has to ve handled most carefully

It was the last phase if the mon5h of august, as dar memory recalls oerhaps twentueth or twenty first of tge month, the investifatir sat inside his office cabin , outsude monsoon was aggressively active, , that year monsoon was hyoer active,  it was unstoppable even after  

He pucked up his intercom to speak with his secretary an update on the waiting room

It was cold and emoty perhaos because of the incessant pouring rains

...jene 

12 august 1985

 Have you ever noticed  it when you are all alone in your dark lonely room  at night  half asleep in your bed and right at three midnight you feel wide awake your peaceful calm sleep is broken  there is no apparent reason  but your sixth sense is hyper active and alerts you there is some presence in the room not directly visible to you , that you are not  alone in the dark room, some might say its madness but she had experienced this herself during her short stay at elene mansion, her mother used to say , jene elizabeth one day your senses will prove  beneficial to you

Jene would then roll up her eyes  and would  ignore her  predictions  of future hapoenings  not believing it at all that one day her mother s  observations would be realised , perhaps that alone was the reason jene became an investigative journalist , to know the unknown , it shot thrills down her spine , so when she was asked to  write a story on rwenty years anniversary of elene mansion murder case  jene took up the case  wholeheartedly

...more. cautious one should have been

Ought to have cried without tears then

.

Now wailing is pointless  remembering  them

That ought to have done  on separation then

.

Silence is maintained on my breeching the promise

Rage intense  they ought to show instead  then

.

Certainly in dreams  they would have appeared

If only sleep would have descended on me then

.

Love gave us all it had to give then 

If only  fabric had lasted and was  maintained

.

I am asked how i am

You ought to have known that  already then

.

Faithfulness is keeping you helpless

You ought to have been helpless then

...in the center of the  colony  there was an ancient mulberry tree, it casted thick cool shade , under which were   built two rock benches on which sat men of the colony discussing women , low  mentality men s cheap entertainment keeps them occupied  with the topic of females , and it was truly a backward locality, it was a common expected practice that men worked whole day to spend their evenings together after their shifts under the old mulberry tree talking  their favorite  thing on women , these men gathered together  on the benches bringing with them newspaper or transister

...alex reached the fifth floor in the medical center to check on her mother in the cancer ward, her mother lay unconscious still , she took her hand in hers and sat silent for s while , a sad air gripped her tight , was there anything in this world  that really existed as happiness , sge released her hold on her mother s hand , she quickly wrote small note and  handed it to the nurse to read it out to her mother when she woke up , dear mom, i was here, i love you so much, i am always with you,  soon again we will meet i love you always, alex

She left the ward and  walked up to the elevator , she stood waiting fir it to reach the floir, a man in  white ciat already was inside, he stood in the right corner do she took the left corner facing the exit, the the polisged surface mirrored  the man , he was rather tall , bearded, a.  Scar on his left cheek , perhaps a birthmark , in his sixties she noticed he was staring at her

..the magical scene at dusk by the sea shore was captivating , harold was enchanted   

Walking on the shores he abruptly stopped, he dug his both  feet  deep in the wet sand , breathing deep twice  he mumbled incomprehensively 

Oh , the same dark shadow

The shadow had   been troubling harold for quite some time , he had tried to find a solution and talk himself out of this situation, that it was merely an illusion  , some error of thought that he felt a shadow  moving around him , after sundown the night fell quickly

Its easy to explain and lecture others but the situation completely changes when you experience the same problem yourself, harold was going through the similar cicumstances

..third july 2019  evening eight past three minutes lake texas

The lake  was still and the surface reflected sundiwn  crimson bright , vessels sailed  towards their destinations ,  nightly activities had begun clouds were molten gold  amidst them shining shimmer of stars danced , benjamin  stood in his soanish villa valcony watching this scene , this villa was located  one stone away from the ninety years old dam built by the lake, he considered  it was bought at galf the price , he could sell it whenever ge wanted at double the price, it was the best befitting gift he ever could get for serving loyaly  the state for over twenty years

He was asked the spelling of glass

He did correctly  g.l.a.s.s

Fail

He again spelled it right

...  the following year azim s factory caught fire , it was a garment factory  fuel  to the fire

It happened like this , one year after muhammed sadiq was thrown out of the house,  during winter when the sun was quite dull , the factory was working its routine on threads  , materials, cutting, stitching, sewing, machines clanged noisily, workers bent on their projects focused, , 

Azim looked  around owning the factory  proud and content,  success and  fulfilment showed on his face  but what was really in his heart was not showing

Play of destiny is incredibly unpredictable  by the evening a spark struck the clothes kept in the godown , it kept on moving through the bundles  unseen un noticed, nobody observed , the spark breathed  and the wind blew  it s lapping flames  to swallow hungrily all that came into its contact, smoke started rising , workers began panicking screaming jumping and running for their life , clanging nachines noise was drowned into absolute silence , as strong  whispering flames began consuming menacingly the.  factory

akhri scene

...nadya stood behind the rostrum in the classroom looking at the sixth standard students explaining to them the importance of hands 

Children, there was a poor boy in a village , his name was ali, he gad no wealth no assets but the almighty had given him two hands  strong and healthy, ali frequently thought what good were his hands , they did not give him foid nor money, one day the village was destroyed in a terrible storm, trees were uprooted, neighbours rooftops flew off , ali saw  the villagers were helpless and miserable, ali extended helping hands tiwards them, rebuilding their cotrages, digging the earth, piling up bricks, removing stones and debris, others followed him, the village stood back as good as new again, his village  rewarded him for lending his helping hands ,  ali had learned  extending helping hands to the needy  was his true wealth god had given him

...one who gives respect to others is respected because one can only give what one has

.

When in distress start counting your blessings , the bitterness is instantly removed replaced by the sweetness of mercies

.

Merciful is that almighty who does not let sins  be visible on your face

.

Lord wants you to pray so that He can show you his power , just ask and it shall be granted

.

Many a times  many die with one dead , on the other hand many start living on the death of someone, its the role of the character and nature of the dead 

.

Lord knows  about every fallen leaf , so dont shed tears , be patient for He knows of your pain and the reason of it, the merciful lord  will  remove your suffering pain and distress

...children loved him too , he was always surrounded with them , several girls looked at him admiringly, i had mixed feelings for the two brothers, i had taught them in classes, i found them quite likeable and attractive, , they were quite sensitive, specially tristan  was most adorable , but the crime that they had committed was unpardonable

Tristan sighed, the police officer looked at me and pressed the button on the door, two nurses rushed in, within minutes his bed was surrounded with technicians and nurses,  tristan lay there with his eyes shut, he opened his eyes fluttering and glanced about the room  as if searching for something , he spoke  in a heavy  and hard raspy voice surprising everyone  , for he had not spoken for over a week at all, , he asked for a lawyer and then shut his eyes back  again

Kevin  i thought looked more aged than before, he still had an attractive appearance, he had not shaven for a day, brown eyes brown hair  with touches of white , looking at me his eyebrows shot up happily surprised, miss its you
