"Have you told your Sayee that the Gilani family is coming to finalize his sister's wedding dates? ".... it was a rare chance that zubaid Begum  ever talked to him,a mere servant, but Kamal always wanted her malkeen to  talk to him.and his reason was simply his  Sayee..

This commitment of getting these two married was a long standing vow between both the families .For keeping better cooperation of families in future.Heena was promised to Gilani family when she was just one year old.Now she was of the marriage able age they are asking for the marriage dates.

Kamal, who by his best luck was founded by a man like his master on the road while people call him names.In every prayer he asks Allah to keep his sayee in HIS protection.

"...No.Maaji, but I will make sure to tell him". He respectfully looks down because meeting eyes with her is not allowed to anyone but to her one and only Son Khider Hussain.

Khider Hussain was a man Kamal dedicated his life to ..if one day Khider asked to go on the mountains  and bring him a mere dandelion Kamal would do it happily.if his sayee will say that Kamal had to stand on his one leg he would,If he ever order him to jump in the ocean he would..he would do all not because he was khider Hussain's  servant but because Kamal never say not to any word which left his Sayee mouth..

It was all because khider Hussain is man who would do anything for anyone not just for kamaal but for anyone ..not because he was made or something but because he was loyal enough to any human which Allah has ever made him to meet them...

The people of his land were more than glad that their master is just and a wonderful man..he was a blessing for any women who walk to his protection like he to his sister.He was saviour to anyone who asked for a hand and he would take him to his own house to make them comfortable..

He was one of the wisest and  barve man this land has ever witnessed,never fear anything but His creator. He was the leader of his clan.He got his position  in young Age but it didn't matter he was trained under a wise father and a brave mother.

Maa ji was very upset to her only son to be this soft hearted because the world he lives in is as cruel as it could., but how can khider Hussain deserted his upbringing which taught him to be humble and which ingrained in him the thought that  strength is not weakness.

He is the heir of the legacy coming from a very long lineage of the great leader of his clan.it was very famous among the locals that if you want justice, you should ask it from khider Hussain. He decided better than judges sitting in the court.

"Maa ji,Kamal again came when zubida begum took another petal of pain to her mouth to chew.

" if you won't mind can I ask a question?? He was trembling but for his sayee saje he will ask.

" sayee shah is older to Heena Bibi than how come he is not getting married first?? The expression on her face changes quickly so that he won't understand what passes through this woman.

" for the first time you talked about something worthy of kamaal?? She became so happy that call him to sit near her on the ground and  Kamaal hardly imagined such a scenario would ever happen to him and he was beyond surprised.

" Do tell me truthfully..this Kamaal is the only one who can give the idea of her son as he follows him everywhere.

"...you are constantly with him,did he ever talk about any girl or have met any such woman who do you think would make him interested??  She took a paan from the box which she always kept at her right side and offered him too .The light coming from the jharokha makes the woman look majestic but the heart of the mother was visible through her smile.

MA JI,"he is always so busy with his work on the field and city that he ever gets time to think about a girl". He honestly answered.

" Why don't you convince your Sayee to get married. I am so tired of saying no to so many people? Every now and then she got a proposal but she declined in hope that his son might like someone.

His father too made a wise decision to not commit his son to anyone.Despite much pressure from other big family of the area he gave his son the choice to choose his partner.

It is nothing like Khider Hussain would ever say No to his mother but being mother she herself doesn't see women of his son stature.He needs a strong woman as she will be the leader of this family along with her son.

The happiness died down in the woman's eyes and Kamaal was in a dilemma to tell her or not.he didn't want to sound like an intruder on his sayee life .

Ma ji,..."if you don't mind I want to share one thing with you? He hesitantly asked for permission as he knew his position very well but out of his love for his master he decided to say just a few insignificant words.

" Yesterday,Near the common road beside the well outside of the village we met a strange girl." He stopped to see her reaction

... And ,she is busy putting her things in the paan box .she has no interest left in the conversation.

.... A child fell into the well and that girl jumped in the water and saved the child......zubaida Begum intrigue looked at him and imagining a woman so fierce made her think  the impossibility of the situation.

"..Merr jaane aage bol..".she hates suspense and this man is testing her limit.the words got woman attention.if this boy was here then it is must that Khider Hussain must be there.

"...The master gave his shawl to that girl to cover her up and for a minute I think she impressed your son...he didn't even finish his word when he watched his malkeen go happily in the direction of servant quarters.

Oh Rashida, "bring some sweets  and distribute in the neighborhood and send sadka to the mosque kids..."she stands up and goes looking out for every one.
Zubaida Begum ,never heard her son approaching a woman this way.It might be her chance to see her son happy and having heir to their legacy.In their culture when a man shares his shawl or gives away clothes to a woman it means he wants her as his wife.
