Palwasha's POV :
                                I have been up since early morning . My scars, they feel painfull , hurtfull and the truth comes crashing down on me . As I curl up my knees up to my chin as I let the pain in my heart flow down as tears . I know Waleed Lala is in pain but he keeps masking peace behind those dark orbs . A whimper leaves my mouth as I feel a whisper in a distance " palwasha ? " . I tilt my head up to recognize it to be Lala . He sits beside me silently and asks " Its hard to abandon emotions ? Isn't it " . I stare at him blankly as he continues " you know , this life is a crazy thing, one day you smile but the next second  you feel hurt " as a colourless chuckle leaves his mouth . I hold his hand as he speaks " palwasha , this life is the storm no one can stop but you have to learn from the harsh waves & take in the beauty of the steady winds " " you are an innocent soul who got lost in the dark " . As a tear leaves my eyes . He sighs and says " Baby girl....I...will always...try my best to protect you " " but please be brave for yourself " . " You are my sweet moonlight , a piece of my heart ,hmmm? " . As he stares at me and says " Everything will be fine soon Inshallah " and embraces me . We feel a presence at door as we look there to have a women stand there . She stood awkwardly till Waleed Lala gets up & leaves saying " I'll be down ". I wipe my tears & mumble a small " salam " as she smiles & greets me back . She comes towards me as I watch her intently . She sits down and asks " Palwasha ,daughter how are you ? " I look in her hazel eyes to remember someone with the same heavenly eyes . As I blankly say " Do I know you ? " She smiles softly & says " I'm sorry umm... Im Isra,Yusuf and Hamaad's mother ". I think " oh! I already doubted you were related to Yusuf by those hazel eyes " . I look up at her only to see her chuckle softly making me confuse until I realize I thought out loud . And I get embarrassed. She talks to me about different things until she caresses my face tears brimming in her eyes " Mashallah you are so beautifull " . I look at her tear escaping from her eyes as I ask worriedly " umm...aunt Isra are you ok " she shrugs " no, no kid Im alright I just never got to feel what its like to be with a daughter ". A soft smile crepts on my face as I hug her softly and say " You have one now " as we both chuckle . My heart gets lighter after having someone to adore me & show affection just like a mother .
