"Nerve-wracking? Is everything alright?" Roshanay asked, concerned. "Yes. Yes. But you know...well.... he wants to meet me,""He?""He.... Remember?.... he....Ibtesham," Alizeh tried reminding her. "Oh him," Roshanay formed an O after realizing, "when?""Well in a week or two. He is coming back from London to Pakistan. He just informed me and I thought of sharing the news with you,""Be cautious, Alizeh. Rather I will suggest you to tell Moosa about him because if he will come to know on his own, it won't end up in your favour,""He is coming to Pakistan for this reason only,""For what reason?""Paving this relationship to our marriage,"Roshanay nodded and after a moment of silence, she spoke, "how did you two meet?""Well, his family lives in London. He often comes to Pakistan to deal the business wing here. One day, he came as an audience at our university for a play in which I performed. And then he approached me. I straight up denied but slowly with his persistence, I have to

It was evening when her eyes had striked open. One look at the clock made her realize she slept for six hours straight. She was shocked to say the least and later she figured it out, her coping mechanism overcame her. Whenever she felt this entire sense of anxiety enveloping her heart, clawing its paws deep in the pit of her heart, she always slept. Slept as if there would be no tomorrow. Because if she won't, her overthinking would tenfold her anxiety. And she was aware of that. So sometimes she took the help of sleeping pills or other times, the sleep would naturally come to her. She felt her stomach groaning out of hunger so she got up and as she passed through her bed, her eyes fell on the mirror. Showing her reflection. She caught the sight of her lips. They were red. A little bit swollen with dried blood where Moosa had bit her. As she recalled those moments in the back of her mind, her heart began to beat out of rhythm. Skipping beats. All you have is two days Roshanay...M

Her body quivered with cold. Lips turned white and shivered. She had covered herself with a worn out shawl that was stitched with patches at different areas. Her hair were untied-open and tangled, as if not brushed for days. She hid behind her mother, trying to save herself from the cold. Sitting on a corner of the street, she kept on observing with her half opened eyes, people strolling and having not even half of the worries she had. They paid no heed to her and her mother's despicable conditions. All they did was walk freely. As if a few months earlier massive bomb blast in their city had no affect in their lives. But here that blast changed her life in all sorts of way, bringing her out from the shield of four walls, protection of a roof to living under open sky. Sky. She once adored looking upto.But now this same sight of sky rose up a sense of terror and hopelessness in her.All she prayed for was to somehow remove this sight of sky and replace it with a roof so atleast the

Her mother had a little saving in her saving account that helped them to have some food but wasn't enough for them to rent a home. Often, her father fought with her mother to give him the saved money so he could buy beer for himself but since that money was the only source of providing them one time food a day, her mother didn't give in to his father's insults and beatings. Her father had been telling them about his struggle of finding a job in the town but they both knew that he was lying about finding a work. Because in the end of the day, he would steal, pick-pocket and from that money brought himself wine. That's all he did. And now it had began worrying Nur, since her mother's saved money was also concluding. Her mother also tried for looking for some work as a maid at people's home. But again whenever they investigated her past, and the charges against her, they didn't let her in their homes. Her mother couldn't even now look for a job at a hospital as a nurse since her license

"Alright," Saying that Moosa hung up, got into his car, brought the engine to life and drove it to its fullest speed to the desired location. Within minutes, he reached there and saw the security guard standing there."They're still inside,""Is Roshanay with him?""Yes sir."As soon as Moosa got inside, the atmosphere got thick. Gunshots were heard. Smoking grenades were thrown. Smoke rose everywhere hindering his vision."Take me to Roshanay," he ordered the security guard as he quickly took his gun out of his holster and unlocked the safety, trying to see through the thick smoke. The guard held his wrist and led him to Roshanay and what he saw there was the shock of his life.His wife, Roshanay was in the corner of the room while an unknown man.... kissed her?His back was towards him but Moosa was able to see Roshanay's face. Moosa's anger knew no bounds. Being quick on his steps, he rushed towards them and with one harsh tug pull that man away from him that he lied on the floor
