dark so dark was everything around and so was the person with a gun who was silently following a lady clad in a red saree 

now finally, finding a perfect aim a bullet was shot 

hitting the desired target

the red saree of the lady became redder with her blood, her shrieks rang through the silent jungle and no ear was there to listen to them

the blood was draining so was the life 

the faceless man left with a wicked smile behind its facade 

no one was there except an 8-year girl hiding in the bushes, she could utter no word except

"MAA"


Shehnaaz woke up screaming the same word, gasping for the air which was squeezed out of her, she held her face in her hands, after a sec she felt a comforting hand on her back 

Siddharth: was it that dream

Shehnaaz: yes

Sid: talk about something, rather anything

Shehnaaz thought for a while and decided to speak about him

Sana: You know I knew that I'm gonna see him today

Sid: I knew that you knew

Sana: waise bhi, this year I'm gonna see all of them a lot

Sid: care to explain 

Sana: It's papa's 65th birthday this year and Raisinghania Group's 50th anniversary, and we all will be going there with family and not to forget press is also going to be there and apne rishto ka tamasha nahi bana Sakti sabke samne.

Sid: Mujhe bhi pata hai I think you should forgive him now...... it's been 9 years kab tak saza degi usse

Sana: I don't know, but I don't feel like going to him

Sid: Finally after 9 fucking years we're talking about this,

We both know Sana that wasn't his fault, and he wasn't just your dad Woh uske bhi the Kuch.... just forgive them aur utar yeh bhoj apne upar se

Sana: We both know that this weight will be going with me to my grave

Sid: You never fail to amaze Sana, you can send your mother's golden roses as your blessing on his wedding, you can change the engagement ring which he chose for his bride with one of your choices, you can send your anklets as a gift to his bride, but still you cannot forgive him. Very ironical no

Sana: you very well know the fact that I still love him but I just can't bring myself to forgive him

Sid: You are taking out your wrath for Chandrika Ji on him

Sana: Even you are amazing me now, you very well know the point that I am not angry for what he did to me rather for what he did to you.

Sid: Then let me make your job easier by telling you that I talked to him after all that shit happened and told him to give you space. And we both didn't know that it is gonna take you more than 9 years to realize this

Sana: I knew it, and I love you for not forcing me that time and for being the bigger person to him or that guilt would have killed him

They both smiled at each other 

Sid: Sleep is far away for me

Sana: Me too

Shehnaaz had a wicked smile on her lips and mischievously she spoke "would you mind around daddy"
