"Zayan this is not mom's letter this just a paper with mom's hand writing and I assumed it to be a letter " Naira said.

"Calm down Naira, we will find it soon , in she Allah.  It's just that we are too curious to solve the mystery and that's why we are assuming everything to be a clue to this mystery " Zayan told.

"I know but what are we gonna do now ? Mom(Zayan's mom)  can go any time to clean my mom's room and take her stuff out and I don't want her to find that letter before me " Naira said.

"Calm down my love , nothing as such will happen . I have an idea I'll tell mom to just sit and instruct us and we will take out all the stuff of your mom and distribute it and in this way we can look out for some important stuff on our own and we 'll keep a separate bag to keep things which seem like a clue to this mystery . Is that ok?" Zayan asked.

"Zayan I love you so much" Naira said as she hugged Zayan.

"I love you too sweetheart.  After a long time  I got to hear that from you " Zayan said as he hugged her back.

"Sorry .......... I troubled you a lot this days " Naira said pulling herself back from hug .

"Love ......... You don't have to be sorry for anything . I know my Naira better then she knows herself and by the way troubling me is your right dear wife . You can trouble any time you want " Zayan said hugging her again.

"Is it? Then be ready dear hubby , you are gone now" Naira said pinching his nose.

After a long time of depression a light smile played on Naira s cheeks and only Zayan knew how much he was waiting to see that smile . He wished they could stay in the hug for as long as possible but seemed like someone had heard his wish and didn't want it to be fulfilled because they heard a knock on their door and they had to part from each other .

"I'll go check out " Zayan said in a annoyed tone and walked towards the door.

He found his mom as the door opened and huffed within himself .

Why in the world should every one disturb him and his wife at a wrong time ?.hufffffff.................

"Zayan , Naira let's go to Nazneen's room . We 'll have to distribute everything in 2 days and then get back to our home so that we can try going back to our normal daily lives or else staying here will only make us moan on Nazneen's death everyday" Fiza said .

"Yes mom your right me and Naira thought the same thing  . We have to get out of this as soon as possible and pray that Nazneen gets place in paradise, Aameen" Zayan told.

All of them went to Nazneen's room to distribute her stuff . The couple hiding their part of truth and Zayan's mom her part of truth , their was a kind of wired silence between the 3 when they entered the room .
May be it was the silence of secrets hidden in their hearts or may be the guilt of not letting it come out in front of each other .

"Mom , please don't strain yourself me and Naira are here to take care of everything . You just sit here and instruct us and we 'll manage the rest " Zayan said to Fiza while making her sit on the bed .

"Ok beta , as you say " Fiza said after thinking for a sec or 2 .

Naira and Zayan made an eye contact gesturing each other that mom won't know there secret now and they can search for the letter .

Naira emptied all her mom's cloths and arranged them on basis of old ones and new ones . They planned to give away the old ones to any needy person they find and planned to give the new ones to a poor girl who was about to get married in a few days.

Zayan was taking out stuff from attic and he found nothing other than old crockery and unwanted furniture .

Fiza put the clothes in different bags to give it to different people .

3 hours had passed and there was still no sign of any letter any where . 

Naira was loosing all hopes of knowing about her existence and Zayan had guessed it already that Naira was loosing  her hopes so he gestured her through eyes to stay patient and they 'll find the letter soon .

While cleaning the attic Zayan found a bunch of envelopes and papers and he was trying his best to hide those from the eyes of his mom .

Naira found 5 -6 papers and messed envelopes which she tried to take to her room while hiding it in her duppatta .

Fiza found a paper below the mattress which she hid inside the clothes which were to be given to needy.

Zayan acted as if he was taking all the things out and along with those things he successfully managed to take the bag of papers outside and hid it in his room .

......

"Naira look I have a bag of letters help me find your mom's letter " Zayan said showing her a huge bag .

"Like seriously Zayan???? What is this ? Where did you find so many papers from? " Naira asked in surprise.

"I found them in attic . I don't know what are all this but we need to search the letter " Zayan said to which Naira agreed.

They spent good one hour to look out for letter in that whole bag of papers but still they hadn't found it and in middle the couple was busy checking out if Fiza was here by any chance and if she had seen them with this letters but to there great luck Fiza hadn't stepped out of her room from a hour . Allah knew what she was doing . As she never stays in her room for so long .

"Zayan I think we should search for letter in this envelopes " Naira said.

"Seriously??? From where did you get all this envelopes and letters ? " Zayan asked.

"I got it from mom's drawer and now leave all that we need to find the letter " Naira said.

"Yes and I hope we won't be disappointed this time" Zayan said.

.........

"I miss you Nazneen , I wish I could bring you back but who can stop the qadr ( destiny ) " Fiza spoke to her self .

Fiza was actually crying missing every moment spent with Nazneen . They were more like sisters than friends

She was crying when her phone rang and displayed bhai(bro) on screen.

"Assalamualaikum bhai , I am fine . What about you ? " Fiza asked her bro in call.

"Bhai Nazneen had gone away from you long back and she had told she is never gonna return to you but you were the one who always waited for her . She is a woman of her word and hence she kept her word and you were stubborn to not let her go out of your heart " Fiza said and tears rolled down her eyes at every mention of Nazneen.

"Forget her now at least bhai . She went away from you cause she wanted your happiness and now I don't wanna hear your dialogue saying she was your happiness . Bhai it's been 20 years ....... 20 long years aren't less bhai.  If Nazneen was alive she would hate seeing you in this miserable condition . Come out of your trauma if you really love her . Come out of it bhai ...................... that's all is what I can say . Please take care . Allah Hafiz "Fiza said with some pauses in her sentence and disconnected the call and cried as she hugged Nazneen's photograph.
