tariqa wardat

...there was still some time for the train to arrive,  Mr Simon waiting for the train  took out a novel from the bag placed beside him,  he was  resting his back against the  back of the bench as if it will be  a long wait , this was his  normal  attitude  whenever he   could  get  snatches of free time   , reading novels was his  first love,  he always carried several novels in his  his luggage,  it seemed the main purpose of his traveling was  for the love of reading novels 
Mr Simon had three additional suitcases besides his carry bag, quite extra large,  decent expensive  clothes and facial countenance defined he was wealthy , his eyes glued to the reading  some minutes passed when he felt a horrifying  touch of a cold knife on his neck,  he was shocked and tried to move his head but he couldn't 
Sit still Mr a rough  crude voice spoke harshly,  
Railway stations were sparsely  crowded,  a few people stood some distance away,  it was  a small backward township,  very few cared to come this way,  Mr Simon belonged here , he owned  landed property and a family house,  every  fortnight he would visit  his roots to go back to the city where he had moved to with his family a few years ago

...a strange  overwhelming feeling descended heavy on Imran,  as if he was constantly thinking  only of mahin,  she who was in the prison,  he felt guilty she was  suffering because of him,  the day  she was produced in the court  he  left her to face it all alone by herself as he  drove his bike around in the lanes and bylanes of Lahore,  he was under great stress
Hoping the footage would  reveal  mahin innocent,  she will be released on bail, women  get easy bail, even mahin was granted bail,  within a couple of hours Imran reached the narrator lawyer  s place with a box of sweets  looking extremely happy,  he distributed  sweets amongst his neighbors,  seeing the lawyer ready  he asked if he was going somewhere,  the  lawyer was  going to see taufuq rai
A few days later Imran again showed his interest in the case ,  telling  the lawyer uncle whatever this man rai was saying  knew too much about  Chawla or he wouldn't have tried to kill himself  when  Chawla was arrested

....baraza ali, this deal will prove mutually beneficial for us both,  it's a hundred percent win win situation,  this deal can give you fifty chores  , in turn all you have to do is to come with me for a few months,  most probably you will be  free  within a few days  and there won't be any more need for you to be with me,  whatever  , the deal will change your life,  it is a turning point 
The Cafe was  absolutely still in silence,  it was morning  and hardly anyone  came to the Cafe at this time 
And what exactly made you believe I would accept this deal  she asked  who was sitting facing him  , listening attentively in complete silence  without any expression,  this time raised an eyebrow  looking directly into his eyes 
Barazah ali, though I don't know you but  I am  very much familiar with money  and it's buying power,  he  smiled wryly before taking a sip from his  coffee mug 
Good,  I like it
She too  moved forward and sipped her own coffee and declared decidedly she  accepted the deal

...bhabhi you are going to extremes,  such a huge  punishment for a small mistake  that you are trying to break up your own family,  burning down your own   home, , arfi was doing his best to make her understand  and she was  just a  mute spectator 
 The day  the man  , the head of the family changes with that changes the life of the woman,  their home life and the world  is destroyed that moment , the other woman  brought  sparks  and  her world  turned to emotional ashes, ayat was   figure of hard pathos and sorrow,  , her thinking was restricted  by the experience of  faithlessness  she was unable to  cross the mental barrier and think beyond,  she had forgotten herself  how could she remember anything else at all 
Bhabhi  look at this way it's impossible for men to avoid women  enticing and inviting them  into sinful  relationships,
