Synthesis of Scattered Pieces ✔️

"You'll understand this thing when you'll get married and become a father."

"You may continue your daydreaming, I'm going." kissing her temple I stood up and got a glare from her but Ignoring that I stepped towards the door.

==============

Shifa's POV

I was scared. I searched my diary everywhere but failed to find out. Afifa also didn't have it. Why I even decided to write down everything? I was cursing myself since last night. I know it's not a solution but my madly beating heart was ending doing this after every couple of minutes. I was  getting ready to go to college but deep down I was getting ready to see a big drama at home. How will papa react after getting to know about me and Faraz?

But I didn't have taken any wrong step...

Will papa understand me?

"Shifa, Beta Hamdan is waiting for you." Mummy stepped in the door and I came out from the trance.

"Yeah mummy. Coming" I tried to pass a smile but couldn't. Hamdan bhai and bhabhi were going back, papa, mummy and Billu were going to drop them to the airport.

Taking a pair of wrist watches for both them I went to Hamdan bhai's bedroom. Billu was already present there, helping Hamdan bhai in zipping the over stuffed bag.

"I'll miss you bhai"  I hugged him, he's my best brother, I was so happy when he was here with me but it's time for separation. "I'll miss you too. Call me if you need anything" Bhai stroke my head lightly and I stepped back. I was smiling in front of all but actually I was not happy, I was scared.

"Bhai, this is for you and bhabi" I passed a well wrapped box to him, I bought it yesterday when we all were roaming around in mall.

"Such a devil you're! Where is my gift?" Bilal huffed at me, this boy is not growing up.

"Study well and get lost from this home, then I'll gift you something too" I rolled my eyes and Hamdan bhai chuckled while putting that gift box in his bag. He punched my cheek and thanked me.

"Papa se kahunga inki shadi jaldi se Shariq bhai se karwaye. Aur Shadi ke baad is ghar me aane ki zarurat nhi hai." though it was a tantrum of Bilal but hurt me deeply.

(I will ask papa to get you married soon to Shariq bhai. And there is no need to come to this house after getting married.)

I looked at Hamdan bhai who was also laughing at Bilal's comment. "Puri zindagi ki saza-e-maut dene se to achha hai ek hi baar maar kar qabar me daal aao, kabhi bhi wapas nahi aungi" with these painful words I turned but Hamdan bhai held my hand.

(It is better to kill me once and throw it in the grave than the whole life punishment, I will never come back.)

"Shifa kya hua hai?" Hamdan bhai wanted to know what's wrong because according to him I was satisfied with the match. He doesn't know what I want.

(What happened?)

"Leave me" I tried to free my hand, I needed to the scoot to my room to flow down the tears gathering in my eyes.

I still didn't like to show my weak side in front of others and tears are the testimony of one's weakness.

"Shaffo" Hamdan he forcefully turned me towards him.

"Aren't you happy with this marriage?" Hamdan bhai asked and My stubborn tears came out from the narrow space of my eyes.

"Kabhi Mehvish bhabi ki insult sab ke saamne kriyega, phir unse phuchiyega wo aap ke sath khush hain ya nahi." I turned to go but stopped by his voice.
