The aunt’s malevolence seems boundless, her cruelty evolving into a sinister art. Each passing day brings a fresh onslaught of accusations, each one more unfounded than the last. Muzammil becomes the scapegoat for every inconvenience, every mishap that befalls the household. A broken vase, an unlit lamp, or a misplaced book—no matter how trivial or unrelated, the blame is mercilessly thrust upon him. Her voice, sharp as a dagger, pierces through his spirit, making the walls of the house feel more like the bars of a prison.

The air in the house grows heavy with tension, the atmosphere charged with an unspoken threat. Muzammil walks on eggshells, each step measured and cautious, but no amount of care can shield him from the inevitable storm. The aunt’s eyes, ever watchful, seem to follow him like a predator stalking its prey, waiting for the slightest misstep. Her accusations come with a venom that turns even the mundane into monumental crimes, painting Muzammil as the root of all chaos.
