“ Distance between two hearts is not an obstacle, rather a beautiful reminder of just how strong true love can be. ”
Chandigarh,

He wrapped up with reading of the letter with a sad smile.
Ayesha,
Maiṁ inā nū samajha sakadā hāṁ, ithōṁ vī ihī hō'i'ā hai. Para maiṁ vā'adā karadā hāṁ, asīṁ jaladī milāṅgē.
( I can understand Ayesha, even same has happened here. but i promise, we'll meet soon. )
Cācā atē māsī nū mērī śubhakāmanāvāṁ bhējō.
( convey my regards to uncle and aunt.)
" Iha patara Ayesha 'ita nū surakhi'ata bhējō. ( Send this letter to Ayesha safely )" He said, handing it over to the post man.
He nodded and left.
Lahore,
25 September, 1951.
Her lips tugged up in a small smile as she closed the letter.
" Hum bhi waada karte hai. Hum jald hi milenge."
Unknown them, to the words that meant.
" Appi... Appi.... Abbu.. Abbu... " Falak came running in her room.
" Abbu? " She shot up running towards panting Falak.
" Kya hua? " She asked.
" Abbu ka katal ho gaya hai appi. " She bursted out crying falling on her knees.
" Kyaa? " words came out to be a whisper as she stood there numb, engulfed in grief of sudden loss.
She ran down to her mother who sat near a blood drenched lifeless body, her father.
" Ammi? " She whispered seeing her mother's pale face.
" Ayu beta, un... Un logo ne, tumhare abbu.. Abbu ko maar diya! " Her mother cried.
She ran and hugged her mother tight as her mother cried out until she fainted.
" Appi, abbu ke janaaze ka waqt ho gaya hai. " Her sister reminded her.
It had been just a day since her grevious loss. All the world went unwanted and unrealistic to her.
She could hear her mother sobbing, a strong woman devastated in fraction of seconds. Her sister, trying to calm her mother.

They were back after the funeral.
" Saare darwaaze aur khidkiyaan andar se band kar do. Ek tinka bhi ghar mein aana nahi chahiye. " Her mother ordered Ayesha feebly to which she nodded promptly.
