The calm nightingle songs of birds slowly disappeared as the evenining sun fall to set. I didn't know what was I feeling because this day was a long day to me. I opened my phone and decided to call Shaeen because he hadn't came back from his collage yet.
I tried to reach hik but he didn't answered. Something's wrong. Why did I felt like that? I thought to go to his collage perhaps he must be have an extra hours. But before I could get into my car, I saw someone getting off the auto rickshaw infront of our house. I smiled and sighed realizing it was Shaeen. It was unlike of him, he'd literally come with his Faris but this day why did he get into the auto?  Faris must be absent today.

Suddenly, my eyes flit from Shaeen to another person who stood beside him. His face looked red.

Who is she? Was the only question that arised inside me.

Is she Zulaikha? His crush?? But his face didn't tell me so. That girl ran near me in excitement like one who runs seeing their best friend in the street. Before she could pull me into a hug, I stepped aside, rejecting it.

What's happening? Who's she and why did she try to hug me?

She panted and looked at me with a hope. ''Who are you?" Was the first thing that had fallen off my mouth.

''You didn't recognize me?" She asked frowning while I tried to remember. I shook my head while Shaeen came forward and replied in his lost soft sound, ''She's your lost sister, Sana." I froze.

I looked at her hazel eyes and chubby cheeks but they didn't looked like my sisters. I shook my head and replied ''No, no, no! This can't be. You aren't my sister."

She pulled her sleeves and showed a small white scratch mark and said ''Look at this. You did this to me when I was small." I looked at her in bewildered. ''I don't remember any such marks." I mumbled looking lost. This isn't my sister.

''What's happening, Saad? Who's at the entrance?" Yelled mom from inside. I didn't replied; instead I looked into her hazel eyes that had something fishy in it. She ran to my mom and pulled her into hug. I shook my head in disbelief and followed her. ''Please don't touch my mother." I yelled while she replied back rolling her eyes ''I'm her daughter." My mum froze seeing her. Her lips quivered while she cupped this, you know sorta fake Sana's cheeks and asked ''Are you really m..my S..Sana?" My mom asked while Sana nodded her head agreeing and a fake tears dropped out off her eyes. My mom stroked her cheeks and hugged her again and kissed her cheeks like a crazy woman! *Astahfirullah* I didn't call my mom crazy but I called her actions crazy. I looked at Shaeen in utter disbelief who had that same look in his eyes.

''From where did you get this garbage?" I asked narrowing my eyes at him.

''She came near me saying that she's your lost sister." He replied while I thought that how could my lost sister remember  Shaeen? Shaeen was adopted right a year after her disappearance so she wouldn't know about him.

''Come inside, my dear. I'll serve you some delicious food." My mom took her inside while I yelled from behind. Nobody listened!

Everybody was at shock seeing their lost treasure back. ''Give us an evident that you're my lost sister. I don't believe you. Just because showing a fake old mark doesn't make you my sister." I yelled at her.

''Stop it, Saad. She's your sister. We lost her once and we can't lose her again." Dad said while I groaned. ''Why are you all so dumb to believe her so much? Can't you see just right beside her lips, she doesn't have a mole. Mom!! Dad! She doesn't have that freaking mole right beside her lips."

''They aren't my permanent moles. They disappeared when I grew up. If you don't believe in the mark, don't believe in the mole either." She exclaimed like a boss lady.
''Either She or me will leave this house today. Mom! Dad or atleast Salman, why didn't you realize that she isn't ––" I was cut off by my mom ''Shut up!!" She yelled. Her eyes wide opened and her nose flared up in red. ''We lost her because of you. Again we can't lose her again and that too because of you. So if you don't want her  we need her here." I remained silent realizing what did I do to lose her?
