leisurely folktale... some tale old as time,some that flows with the time.

qalander?

the sky was shinning bright from the sun light a light breeze spread across banda's pull where sikander was walking he was finally feeling home,how much he missed all the freshness of his village,

"It was sharp 9 am when he reached his home his family was ecstatic to see him his older brother were engulfing him in bear hugs!"his mother teary eyed face full of happiness,his father's proudy face

"All this was giving him a sense of satisfaction that finally he made them proud!"sikander was always a troubled child getting into fights while playing cricket in the fields!"being short tempred and stubborn but all that was in the past now he's a full blown man an officer one must stay away from him,

"When he finally set his foot in his fields" he kept roaming around from there meeting all his old friends!"and relatives!!finally he decided to pay a visit to his neighbour sabra chachi and mateen chacha!they lived infront of their house,to be exact their grandparents were cousins so they were also his rishtedar,

"It was a beautiful afternoon he stood infront of a big iron door which was about 9 feet tall he knocked on it surprisingly mateen chacha opened it" asalam alikum chacha!!he said his salam wa/salam beta ao andar ajao they went to the mardaan khana he sat on a sofa which looked antique they started talking

"Mateen chacha was a good man he had only 2 childrens daughter qulsum and son haris" he was 17 when he last saw qulsum!!she used to be in two braids light skin tone although he never saw her clearly because she was mateen chacha's daughter and he respected his chacha so much so he never got the audacity to roam his eyes on her!!

"His thoughts were quickly interrupted by mateen chacha's voice chlo beta azaan hone wali hai asar ki masjid mei namaz pdhne" he smiled and got up!!when he saw a little head peaking from the window across the room he shook his head evesdropping and village go so well together!!

"He was about to open the main door when it suddenly opend itself a girl was standing there sada lal libaas mei malboos sar pr dupatta ordhe wo koi hoor se kam nhi lg rhi thi shane pr usne bag liya hua tha or ankhein un chashmo k piche bhi bala ki haseen lg rhi thi" sikander ki saansein tham gyi!!"asalam alikum she payed him with a salam!! her voice was just like her face kitna noor tha uski awaaz mei wo kafi pakiza nazar arhi thi,

"Sikander hosh mei ao his conscious scolded him walikum asalam he said stritcly and went passed her both their hearts were beating rapidly"kya sikander k irade kamzoor pdh rahe the?"he always wanted an educated girl not some gaon ki ldki bas shakal he acchi hogi uski!! he consoled his heart

"Huh,wo toh nadia ki baat krne aya tha amma abbu se",he met nadia when he was preparing for nda she was also preparing for civil services!! their mutual understanding was good he liked her bold out going personality!!they liked eachother!!not like they were dying for eachother,he just wanted someone like her to be his life partner but his heart was occupied in murmuring qulsum's name.
