Hiba had finally agreed to her mum but stating the condition that she will marry if she likes someone. It was a mere excuse for her to save from the marriage talk every day.

She would get settle only if her heart was healed which would take a lot of time.

Unfolding the next letter, she had inhaled the fresh brewed aroma of the coffee.

Dear Hayati,

I swear i just realize what  i wrote in the last letter, stating that our marriage ended, how dumb i am. I wanted to say that we had such understanding and because  of that our marriage did not end.

Remember that day when Sophy did not get up. You tried so hard to wake that poor bunny. In the middle of night you woke me up and I was greeted with your tears stricken face. You dragged me to the bunny and asked me to save it. You must be wondering why am I even reminding you about that, well the truth is, I assured you that the bunny would be alright and told that I will take it to the hospital. I did took but the bunny died.

Me and that bunny did not even shared anything, yet tears obscured my vision. Like there are many animals who lost their life just because we hooman have fun torturing it. I remember the day where I had buried your Sophy. Just that I don't want to see your tear stricken face, I brought another bunny, black mark on his nose and tail. And when you enquired about it, I told that it was medicine that doctor provided it. And surprisingly you believed . Maybe just the fact that you don't want to believe that your bunny died, you didn't ask further questions.

I don't know but I wanted to tell this truth to you. I am sorry.

Yours Truly

Waleed
