Isha : What do you mean, mom?Isha's mom : His body is feeling cold, and he is not responding to my words.Isha : Mom, have you woke Sissy up?Isha's mom : no Isha : Ok, I will wake her up. She is a medical student, so she will check on him.Isha's mom : Ok, go quickly and wake her up.Isha: Ok (went to her sister's bedroom and woke her up).Ayesha : What happened, sissy? You are waking me up at this time.Isha : Dad isn't responding. Can you check on him?Ayesha : What do you mean?Isha : Mom says his skin is feeling cold and he isn't responding no matter how many times she calls him.

Ayesha rushed from her bed and hurried to check on her father, without waiting to hear another word, to find out how he was doing and what had happened. Reaching his father's side, Ayesha put her hand on his wrist to feel his pulse. After checking his pulse, Isha began to cry out and shake her father, yelling, "Wake up, you can't leave." Isha's mind stopped working at that point, and she just stood there, crying while her mother broke down in tears. Isha got over her shock around thirty minutes later and went to talk to her mother and sister.

Three hours went by in this manner until they eventually recovered from the shock, as Isha put one hand on her sister and the other on her mother to console them. Since they were away from home, no one could attend when Isha's mother called to let them know what was going on. morning. It would have been useless even if Isha had asked for breakfast and juice for her mother and sister, as neither of them would consume any food or liquids. When the resort owner informed Isha that it should stop by the time it got dark, Isha simply nodded. It was only the neighbors who knew her dad who came to visit.

as the afternoon grew, so Isha's uncle, her dad's brother, arrived in the afternoon, and Isha took care of all the arrangements after placing an order for meals for everyone who had come, including her family. Isha's uncle ordered in a funeral van at about four o'clock in the afternoon, and after performing some rites at the resort where they had been staying for the previous month, Isha's uncle and some other people took her dad to Manikarnika Ghat to complete the rites. Isha, her mother, and sister then went to have a head bath. After they were done with the bath, they came back to the living room. They then just sat in silence in the living room.

After returning from a bath, Isha's uncle joined them again. In a matter of minutes, he suggested them that it would be best if they went back to their house because Isha's father had passed away and his last wish had been fulfilled. Then Ayesha queries him, asking what last wish he is discussing and whether someone is keeping something from her. Isha replies that there isn't anything since she believes he is saying that coming here is his father's final wish because it is his dream place. No one can fool Ayesha, she argues, saying that she won't believe what they are saying. She demands an answer. Isha decides to talk after going quiet for a short while.

Isha tells her that her father has been unwell for some time and that when they took him to the hospital a month ago, the doctors informed them that there was nothing they could do. He also requested a final wish to travel to Varanasi kashi, which has always been his dream destination but which he was never able to see. After a period of silence during which she processed the facts, Ayesha inquired as to what had happened to her father and why the condition was incurable. Isha stays silent as her uncle tells Ayesha that her father has cancer, but by the time he finds out, it's too late.

They all sat there in silence until the sun goes down. Ayesha ordered food for everyone to eat, and when it was done, she noticed that her uncle was still there. Since her room could accommodate three people, she asked her mother and sister to sleep there with her, and they agreed. Then, she asked her uncle to sleep in one of the other two rooms, and he agreed, so they went back to sleep. Isha just turns around, attempting to take in the day and her father's passing, when her phone rings. She checks it and finds it's Rahore, so she takes it and goes to the balcony to speak with him, telling him that her father has died.
