"I will not marry him just because he is willing to invest in your company, which doesn't even have a future now, Abba!" 

"Sidra! Know your place and don't you ever talk to me like that again. This marriage will take place, and I don't want any arguments!" 

Sidra was devastated by her parents' decision. All her life, she was treated like a nobody, and even now, that didn't change.

"Ma? Bhai?" 

                        *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

"But Suhail, this isn't what I asked for my son."

"You wanted a daughter-in-law, and you're getting it. Method shouldn't be a concern now, should it?" 

"Suhail? This isn't my upbringing, child. How much more pain will you hold onto until you finally let go of that dreadful night?" 

"The wedding takes place next week. See, the arrangements are top-notch."


                        *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

A marriage of convenience... a soul with childhood trauma while another clinging onto a painful past.

Will this marriage heal the two shattered souls or just complicate the situations more?
