"Soni ke Abba! Soni kabse bahar gayi thi ab Tak nahi louti,"

(Soni hadn't returned yet,)

"Kaha gayi woh iss waqt?" Akhtar who has just returned from his work asked

(Where did she went?)

"Woh Maine ussey Raza ke Ghar bheja tha, ab Tak nahi aai. dekhiye kahi wahi toh nahi ruk gayi raat ki wajah se," Farida slowly said to her husband afraid he will get angry at her

(I sent her to Raza's house, go and see is she stayed there because of night.)

"Tumse kisne kaha Tha is waqt use bahar bhejo,main dekh ke ata hoon," he again wore his footwear and leave to house

(Who told you to send her out at this time? I'll see where she is,)

"Soni toh kabka Ghar ke liye chali gayi thi," Barkha informed him on the door

(Soni isn't here,)

"Lekin ab Tak woh Ghar nahi aayi..... Koi dost Hai tum dono ki jiske Ghar woh gayi ho?" Akhtar asked

(But she isn't at home, do you have some friends where she goes?)

"Nahi!" Barkha shook her head negatively, Shafi who has also returned from his work came out from washroom while drying his wet hair by towel saw Akhtar on the door

(No!)

"Kya hogaya? Sab khairiyat?" Seeing him at this time Shafi asked

(Is everything okay?)

"Soni! Shaam ko yaha aayi thi aur ab Tak Ghar nahi pohchi," Barkha said to him

(Soni came here in evening but she has still not returned home yet,)

Shafi also left the house to search for Soni with Akhtar

They knocked on every door of the house in village, asked almost everyone about her

But everyone gave same answer Hume nahi maloom

They even searched for her in the field maybe she went there for walk

But returned hopeless

"Tum Ghar jao kafi derr hogayi hai,"

(Go to your house, it's quite late,)

"Khalu! Kal hum police ke pass jayenge aap fikr na kariye," Shafi said

(Tommorow we will report to police don't worry,)

Akhtar nod his head and headed to his house when on the way he found something

Something that his eyes didn't catched before

A black shawl

He picked it, it was Soni's he knew, he was the one who bought it for her from City, when he went there few months ago

Seeing it brought tears in his eyes

He don't know where his daughter is, is she even safe?

His heart was saying something bad has happened to her

"Choro mujhe!" She tried to freed her hand from his grip but he was much stronger then her

(Leave me!)
