TALAASH

the past

Utho chalo shabash .. lets go for a walk? Sahir smiled at her who frown at him in return.

Weren't you suppose to be in office? Inquired shehnaaz while the guy shrugg .

I was .. I kind of sneaked out! He grinned making the girl shake her head .

Give me my chips back you dofus! They heard a yell and not a while after came a running zoya behind her brother .

This .. this makoda ... She painted sighing heavily . She dropped herself beside her bestfriend who smiled offering her a packet of chips .

Zoya Bibi

Hmm

V..vo shehnaaz b..Bibi k p..parents aaye hain .. kaafi shor dala hua hai unhone ... The three figures stiffen hearing that .

Stay inside okay? Zoya asserted her bestfriend who noded , fear lingering in her hanzel eyes .

So this was it? That was her short term happiness was huh? Only 5 days .

It's been only 5 days she had came here ... 4 days he had left for his duty.

But even after his aching absence she was happy here... In his house... With his family .

Sighing coldly she got up to face her parents .. the sultans were being nice to her that doesn't mean she will burden them anymore.

She is bound to go back to the cruel jail she calls as her house.

Hume humari beti vapas chahye ap samjhte kyu nahi hai aapa?

The youngsters frown on the word aapa which means sister while others remained unfazed .

Beti? Tumhare mu se ye lafz acha nahi lagta hai ! Jao Bibi .. vo yaha mehfooz hai .. infact pata hai kya? Vo ab yaha hee rahegi .. amma announced .

Kya? Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Aap bhul rae hain hum uske parents ... Mrs siddique was cut off when shehnaaz appeared looking afraid .

M..mom inse mat lade plz ... M ..mein chal rae hu aapke saath . She pleaded immediately fearing that her parents would hurt anyone .

They speak too rudely!

Mrs siddique smirked in amma's direction while the women glared at the vile women .

Nahin! Shehnaaz kahi nahi jaaygi . Amma declared .

Amma .. naaz whispered shocked but the women was determined .

Maine kaha na ... Amma was cut off by Mr siddique.

Hum parents hain uske .. vo humare saath hee jaygi .

Acha? Or kisne kaha k tumhara Haqq hai uspe ? Kya tumlog bhul gaye k aaj bhi shehnaaz ki legal gaurdian mein hu? On hearing this several gasps were heard .

Amma then turned to shehnaaz with a sad smiled .

Tum puchti ho na k tum apni maa jaisi kyu nahi ho? Or m humesha khti hu k tum exactly uske jaisi ho ! Naaz noded with a frown while amma wiped her tears with a smile .

It's time for revelations!

Tum uske jaisi hee ho shehnaaz .. bilkul meri noor ki tarah.. paak .. masum ... Khubsurat! She finished .

M..mtlb? Zoya stumble forward joining the dots .

Noor aunty was amma's sister who died along her husband I e. sids dads brother ahad .(both the sis were married to both the brothers)

this means .. shehnaaz is noor chachi and ahad chachus daughter? Zoya gasped out .

Han . Mere noor ki beti hai ye .. or ye aurat , amma pointed at mrs siddique .. ye meri or noor ki bhn hai ... The revelation stunned silence in the room .

30 years back .

The marriage of sultan brothers to the Qureshi sisters was the biggest topic of the state.  The union of two most powerful and influential families .

Major zayd sultan married mehmoona (aka amma) and ahad sultan married noor sultan . It was a marriage for strengthening the bonds between the two families .

Unaware of the fact that ahad sultan was madly in love with noor since he saw her on the first day of college . There love was destined for there togetherness . The couple's were happy in there own bubble .

When the first child of sultans .. Siddhant Ali chaudhary was born . His father wanted to name him Ali while mehmoona wanted him to be her Siddhant so they came up with Siddhant Ali chaudhary . Chaudhary being there ancestral name .

After 6 years into marriage ahad n noor were blessed with a beautiful angel . Whoom they named shehnaaz noor sultan . The girl was absolutely beautiful and just like an angel .

Aamna was happy with her sons and content with the way her noorie was glowing as she was expecting her second child .

She was five months pregnant!

That fateful night , when the couple was out to bring a cake for there beloved daughter who was celebrating her third birthday when the tregedy crushed them .. they met with an accident and all of them died .

Noor

Ahad

And the unborn child .

Nikalo is manhus ko yaha se .. mera bete or Bahu ko kha gayi ye Naish ... Ahad's mother screamed . She had been like this since her son hd died
Her  intensifying hate  for her own granddaughter leaving the family in worry .

It went for two months until one day

aama's(mehmoona)  third sister laiba siddique  showed up with her husband and asked or more like begged for shehnaaz .

Appi 7 saal ho gaye hain .. mjhe ab koi umeed nahi hai k aulad hogi .. a..ap yakeen kare m shehnaaz ko maa se zada pyar dungi . Aakhir vo meri marhoom bhn k beti hai .. the words had weaken mehmoona .and she agreed .

And that is when the turmoil had started .

The torment for an innocent soul .

***

Present

Tum par aitbaar Kiya tha maine laiba ... Shayad sabse badi galti ki thi maine. Amma shake her head .

Aap isse nahi jaanti aapa bahot tez hai ye .. aapko nahi pata iske drame .. amma glared at her sister shutting her up .

Shehnaaz

Naaz?

Zoya immediately sprung to her bestfriend who was dizzing and soon the girl fell unconscious .

It was too much for her fragile heart . Too much .
