Jihan Sikander (2)

She had never seen Jihan Sikander. She had just heard about their relation. She was just a year old when Sabeen phuphu came to Pakistan and under emotional circumstances she had asked for Haya's hand for her eight year old son. Her brother agreed and the kids entered the contract of marriage-Nikah. Jihan was present with his mother at that time. And then they left for Turkey.

Twenty one years passed by, and they continued staying in Turkey. He never returned to Pakistan and after that visit even Sabeen phuphu never visited Pakistan. Nor did she ever send a picture or write a letter.

If anyone ever visited Turkey, they used to visit her or else it was as good as not being in contact. She never used the internet. Even if Jihan was on social media no one had his email, facebook or twitter id.

Irum and the rest got tired after constantly searching him on facebook but they could never find Jihan Sikander from Turkey.

At the beginning Phuphu used to frequently call them but then gradually everyone got busy with their lives. Once in three months phuphu used to call and once in three months they used to make a call to Turkey. Just the normal conversation...exchange of greetings, and talk on condition of weather, exchange of political views and then Allah Hafiz.

Despite all of these things she had mentally and emotionally linked herself with Jihan. The picture at the time of nikah was still with her. An eight year old, fair and good looking boy...whom she had never met in person and maybe the entire happiness of visiting Turkey was because of him...and now Abba was spoiling her plans. At that time she was very angry with phuphu and Jihan because of whom this relation had become a big question in itself.

Anyway, after Dawar bhai's wedding and at the end of semester, she will visit Turkey and will definitely search them.
