....it was an unknown hour of the night, there was a knock on the door, Mrs jafry was a light sleeper , her eyes flew open instantly, She glanced at the wall clock, it was turning one past midnight, who could that be this hour, perhaps Tahir sahib had brought police, flustered she got out of bed, both Rawat and Ada were fast asleep in their beds by her bedside, fuda was inside the other room, the door was once again knocking, putting on her slippers she reached the door, once again the door was knocked, she worriedly asked who was there
A male voice was heard saying he was jalaluldin , a friend of jafry sahib, I have something the matter to discuss with you, open the door
She was doubtful whether to open the door or not, anything could happen at this unexpected time specially in a house where the number of women were more
The male stranger's voice rose he had some years ago taken loan from jafry sahib and he wanted to return it , next morning he had his flight to Canada therefore he arrived this unusual hour
As far as she remembered the factory was in loss , jafry sahib practically couldn't have given any loan to anyone
