Silence - 'The Language Of Love'

CHAPTER 1

The moon was hidden by clouds which covered it perfectly, it was looking magnificent, anyone who would see this would be amazed by it but tonight the moon was hidden to not witness someone's world crumbling and that was Mahnoor a 11 years old girl.

She took her step out of the car with shaky legs while holding hands tightly with her best friend Rafia. Both girls were wearing a beautiful frok that they wanted to wear for the party which happened few hours before, they were looking like little angle in that dress few hours ago but not now.

The dress which was covered with flowers embroidery was now covered with blood. Rafia bodyguard held hand of both girls while taking them inside where rest of the family was present. Ayesha was with her husband outside the emergency room through which doctor just exist while saying a small sorry, Mahnoor heard the doctor and saw her aunt falling down while crying her eyes out. Rafia run towards her mother and started calling for her, Ayesha which was crying in her husband shoulder looked towards her daughter and then behind her where noor was present.

Ayesha wanted the world to swallow her before she break the news to Mahnoor but she didn't knew that Mahnoor had heard. She got up and kneel down infront of noor so they are in eye level, Mahnoor was shaking, Ayesha grabbed her shoulder and pulled her closer to her chest in an attempt to make her feel the warmth of her mother.

Mahnoor when came in contact with the warmth of her khala the same smell of her mother hit her nostrils and tears made there way to her eyes but noor controlled them because she thought it was not real but soon that thought of her was dismissed when the door to the emergency room opened and two bodies were take out of the room. They were covered with a white sheet, there face was not visible but noor father hand was laying life less on which her eyes dropped and her eyes were on the ring which never lefted his hand. Ayesha pulled back from Mahnoor when she filled her sobbing and soon that sobbing were turned into historical crying, Ayesha hold noor but she wanted to go and hug them. Ayesha loosen the hold on her and Mahnoor took small steps but her vision started to get blur because of the tears which clouded her eyes, but she felt her body weak and everything around her was circling. Her khala and khalu came to catch her but then she lost her consciousness

A loud gasp escape Mahnoor mouth, as she got up from her bed. Her both hand covered her face as she tried to regain her senses, it was a dream she just had but a reality of her past. Her eyelashes which were long and curled were now wet from the silent crying. She moved her hand together from her face to her head and then it landed on back of her neck while trapping the  long black hair, her elbow were rested on her knees which were folded, close to her chest. She sigh, while closing her eyes but soon her eyes shoot open when her alarm went off informing her of tahajjud prayer, she got up to start her day after offering tahajjud and farj prayer

Mahnoor was dropped at her college by Rehan after the breakfast was done. She was on her way to today's destination with her other group mate, there was a seminar which is specially organized for orphanage kid in which few were disable.

After the seminar, everyone was headed to the opposite building so they could have lunch. Mahnoor was also going that way but the girl that she was holding, stopped and Mahnoor looked at her with confusion as to what happened, she asked her in sign launge because that girl can not hear because she was disabled, the other girl who was beside them both said "her shoe laces, didi(sister)!!" Mahnoor bent down to tie them and after that she got up to see that both the girl were staring somewhere continually. She heard a loud scream coming from a distance, it was not a large distance because of it she was able to view the whole scenario, the man was running towards Mahnoor, she looked around her but there was no one expects the little girl beside her. She looked at the horror filled face of that man and in an instant there was a sound which was of a gunshoot, Mahnoor in an instant closed the eyes of both the girls before they could see the blood  coming out of his head and his body land life less on the ground. Her eyes was also closed when she saw blood coming from his forehead and when she opened them her eyes landed on that man body and to the person who shoot him straight on the head.
His eyes were holding no emotion on it and his face was straight, he was looking directly in her eyes. His eyes kept Mahnoor glued to the ground but then she broke the eye contact to see that some police man where coming, she thanked allah for the rescue but then she was shocked as the police men grabbed the gun from him before leaving the scenario and the other police men was talking to him, she took this as a chance to leave but she heard few words coming from them

"sir don't worry no one will find his body"

It froze her to the core but she needed to leave because there were two children with her.

When she came back home she directly made her way to her room to think whole situation which happened just a second ago. It wasn't making any sense, if he was a police men then, why hide a body? but if he was in police then, he was not wearing the uniform? nor the gun was something that the normal police guy hold, and if he is not in police then he could be a criminal but why police is helping a criminal?
These questions clouded her brain completely.
