Zahid:
I stopped the car and checked the address from my phone.Yeah it's the right one I smiled and got some hope.Thank you so much Ya Allah and I hope she's here.

I was away for whole five years but I know she knows more of what happened than I know and I want to hear her story from her own mouth.

I know some of it dad told me but still the one who has gone through it would be able to explain it in better and understanding way.

I came out my car and fixed my suit properly I scanned my eyes around the cafe it din't scream richness people were there but not so many it was already closing time I had heard alot about this place it just opened last year.

I went and sat at table where by near it there was no one and waited for someone to come up.

I was checking here and there just to catch glimpse of her to ease my heart and mind.

"Excuse me sir, mhh what would you like to order?"the familiar calm sweet voice snapped me from my thoughts and I jerked my face towards hers and her eyes widened and she stared at me with shock.She was still same wearing niqab and full headscarf(hijab)with specs in the eyes.

We kept staring at each other until she lowered her gaze.That's what I  love most about her.She will hardly shake hands with any guy or talk to other guys randomly.

"Zainab"I called her name and she snapped out of her thoughts just shaking her head.

"Please please Zainab we need to talk,"my voice sounded like pleading to her but do I care?I needed her back in my life and I will do anything but with her consent.

"After whole 6months?no text?no call?then you appear here?how did you know where I work?oh I forgot?money talks,"she said sarcastically and I just stood there I knew she was hurt.We all had hurt her in one way or the other but she's strong and now independent.

"Am so soorrry so sorry please please give me another chance?I want to give you back everything.All hapiness and I want to win your trust,"I said I wanted to confess my love to her but baby steps won't harm yeah?

"Mhh sorry for disturbing both of you but Zainab it's time and you can go home have rest,"her boss said with a smirk and smile and I gave her thumbs up she nodde while Zainab just thanked her boss.

"I will drop you it's pretty late,"I suggested and for first time am glad she din't argue or deny and this brought smile on my face.

"You don't need to do all these because I have forgiven you all and life goes on I have learnt alot,"she said in low voice and I waited for her to say something more.

"How can you forgive so easily?"I asked without starting the car because I wanted to hear truth from her dad told me some of it but still.

"Who are we to hold grudges?mom told me once we should forgive people and go on with life.

"Tell me everything Zainab please trust me tell me share with me?"I told her I knew she loved me no idea if shs still does if I tell her I love her she will tell me all this is so wrong and probably run some where.

"What if you hurt me again?and break my trust?"she whispered and I promised her I won't and I will fix it.

I know our grandparents used share stories with her also until we shifted but why?her parents know, mine never bothered to share with us.Granddad had told me something also before he passed away and I couldn't handle truth and their death.

I thought she won't talk and I thought I lost her so I was about to start the ignition and her voice made me stop and listen to her.

We all used to stay happily under one roof even you must be remembering but then when you left after sometime something always seemed off between mom and your dad or my dad and yours it's like someone had cast an evil eye.

Arguments, not talking to one another for months, the huge misunderstandings and money problem also lots of arguments so was money everything for people?

Then one day there was a proposal for me you know my mom and your mom never got along no idea why?I was so tired of it and Rehmat seemed distant also.

Everyone seemed to like Hamza and his family especially your mom she said so much positive comments about him to my parents until they agreed and I said whatever they decide.

Huge argument happened before my wedding and your parents left that's what mom told me and till now I wished we wouldn't have separated us youngsters we used to be very close cousins.

She looked at me confirming if I was listening and I nodded and told her to continue.

I was so shy in the beginning but then we talked and everything was going on smoothly he was always kind amd caring he made me smile but little did I know he had some other intentions there was so much going on as your family left us and took our grandparents with them then Hamza did something which changed everything.
