Lacuna (Missing Part)

2

It was a cloudy day but there was no sign of rain anywhere

Ibrahim ran down the stairs as his friends were waiting for him outside his house

He stepped down the stairs and walked towards the wooden door when his father's voice made him stop

"Kidher ko mia sahab?"
(Where to mr? )

He turned around a smile on his face
He loves his dad to the moon and back, he can kill and get killed for his father , the love he held for his father has no full stop ."going out with friends ,old man"
He said winking and with that he went out and drove off with his friends

His father stood there just smiled as he loves his 22 years old son too much after all, he is all he have

~•~

"Wait wait lets play truth and dare ,teacher is not here yet anyway " said one of the girls as they all circled around the table with their chairs

There was 6 girls sitting in a class full of noise

"Rotate the bottle " rida said excitedly

They rotated the bottle as it stopped on rida and she jumped up and down excitedly

"Truth or dare ?" Everyone asked her

"Dare" she said

"Go and pull ramsha's hairs" zainb smirked as she said this
She knew rida and ramsha doesn't go well that why she played this game

" Are you insane ? She will eat me alive" rida hissed

Zainb rolled her eyes at her

"Go or you are out of the game " other girls said

"Okay wait" she stood up and walked passed by ramsha slightly tugging her hair

She yellped as she felt something pulling on her hair

When she saw rida passed by she yelled " are you blind you stupid idiot "

Rida's face lost all of its Colour ramsha when angry can litraly eat you alive

"S- " she was going to apologise but was intrupted

"Don't make a fuss out of it and back out" zainb said her voice stern back her bestfriend laughing at now ramsha's face , that now lost all its colors

They walked back to their seats and started again this time the bottle stopped on their group leader and favourite person

ANABIA ZUBAIR

"truth or dare Anabia?" Asked zainb knowing her bestfriend she will go for truth

And she did

"Truth" she rolled her eyes ," you are no fun , now what am i supposed to ask ? I know you more then you yourself" zainb said annoyingly

(Anabia, mohabbat ya izzat? Ek ko chun'na pray to kis ko chun'no gi?"

("Anabia, if you have to chose between love or your honor, what will you chose ")

one of the girls asked

"Izzat phir izzat or her bar izzat" Anabia said without even thinking for a second , without even a blinking as if it was so easy question

("Honor and then honor and everytime honor" )

The girls whooted around her as they continued playing

~•~

Anabia just entered home after collage she was tired as always she slumped her bag down and waled towards kitchen as she knew her mother were cooking there

"Mama. Aalam u alaikum" she greeted her mom hugging her from behind with a pout on her face

"Walailkum aslam, go change and come down lunch is ready" she said cutting salad

"Mama i am tired will you feed me with you own hands ?" She asked in a baby voice still pouting

"Ladian krna band karo , or ja kr kapray badlo"
(Stop being lazy and go get dressed" her mother said sternly

" Han han ladian to saari bhai k liye hena mujhy to uthaya hi kooray walay plot say tha" she said rolling her eyes and ran upstairs because she knows how her mom get irritated when she indirectly says she loves her son more

("Yes i know all your love is for brother right?, i was picked from a trash plot")

She laughed as she loves to annoy her mother she got changed and went to dining table where her mom served the lunch

She saw her dad and brother sitting there as well as her cousin cum bestfriend zainb , she  lives in the same colony so its normal for their family to have her or her family as they don't consider them outsiders

She went to her baba and kissed his cheek "Asalamualikum baba" she smiled beautifully

And sat with zainb infront of her was her mother and beside her was Sarim , Anabia's brother

"Walailkum salam baby" her father replied sweetly

"We are also here , you can greet us too" her brother older then her by 5 years said

"I know" she smiled at him fakely and rolled her eyes

Her brother just made a face at her and zainb laughed slightly

She served herself some rice and was going to take first bite when her fathers voice stopped her "So how was your result beta?" The spoon was left halfway through her mouth and her mouth wide open

Zainb brust out laughing and said "uncle g me sabme pass hun achay numbers say "

("Uncle i passed every test with good grades")

"Mashallah , ans what about you Ana ?"

"Baba i just failed 3 test" she said pouting but smiled again "but i passed every other test " she nodded assurengly

Her brother smacked his head sighing so does her mother "Ana and how many tests were totally ?" Sarim asked deadpanned

At this she turned her head down pouting "four"

Her father laugher out loud at her cute daughter "its okay you still passed one " he said and patted her head

She smiled

"You just spoiled her, nikammi kaheen ki" her mother scolded (usless)

"Anty leave it naw, its hina baji maiyyon tommorow and we have to apply mehndi on our hands" zainb said

"Okay Sarim will take you girls for mehndi" she said

"Oh why, why, whyyy sarim?" Sarim whined
