"Khamoshi"

Chapter-9

It's been 3 hours since we have been at home after being caught. I couldn't even get a chance to comprehend this all happened soo quick.

I can't believe that I got caught from running away from my own house and Kasim I have no idea what was he doing at the King's Cross station at that hour.

Mannat beta meri taraf dekho... Mannat idhr dekho meri taraf ek baar.... Q bhaagi tum apnay he ghar say beta...

How do you expect me to explain you mama that I had planned off running away with a person and now has left me in the disaster to suffer all alone...

Mannat beta baat kro mujhsay, batao kuch beta kya waja thi... Ayesay khamosh na betho beta... Bolo kuch beta....

Mama....

I couldn't find words to explain her... I had no explanation for my mistake that I had made....

I hugged her and cried out for everything... For the mistake I had made in my life, for the blind love that I had for Alyaan, for everything..... For bringing up this all upon myself.....

Shh...!!. Mannat beta chup ho jao... Shh...!!.

Mama I'm sorry... Mujhay maaf krdain mujhai nai bhagna chahiye tha.... Mama please maaf kr dain....

I kept on crying....

Mannat beta mein tumsay naraaz nai hoon... Mujhai pta hai koi waja hai jiski waja say tumnay itna bara qadum uthaya hai.... Mein jaanti hoon beta koi cheez tumhay kaafi pareshaan kr rhi thi jiski waja say yeh sub hua hai....

A voice made us move away from each other...

Waah bhayee waah... Beti ghar say bhaagi hai or maa ossay galay laga rhi hai... Waah kya zamana a gya hai aab toh....

Phlay zid laga kr nokri krti rhi, or Allah jaanay kitnay larkoon say chkr chalati rhi hamaray peechay... Or aaj toh hud ho gayi ghar keh mulazim keh saath bhaag rhi thi oss mulazim ko bhi nai chora tumhari beti nay....

Khuda ka lakh lakh shukr hai keh iss ki asliyat pta chal gayi hai wrna is nay toh...

Tobah.. Tobah!!.

Her words stabbed me like a knife straight to heart... I wanted to shout and scream and to let everyone know that this isn't truth... But no words came out of my mouth... I stood there like a statue...

My mom moved me towards the side and stood right in front of her.

Apni zubaan smbhaal kr baar krain aap Aapa... Ek lafz bhi kaha na meri beti keh baaray mein khuda ki qasam mujhsay behtar koi nai ho ga....

Bari zubaan chalnay lagi hai tumhari acha hai Mehmood tumhay apni jotay keh neechay duba kr rkhta hai....

Apni bakwaas aap bund krain Aapa... Beti hai yeh meri.... Ek lafz nai sunoon gi aap keh is zehrelay muh say apni beti keh liye....

Wesay aap ko kb say meri beti ki fiqr hi nay lagi... Zubardsti apnay oss betay ko raazi kiya tha Mannat say shaadi keh liye... Toh aab krwain naa apnay betay ki shaadi Mannat say... Ab q peechay ho rheen hain... Krwain na apnay betay ki shaadi issay.....

Zubaan smbhaal kr baat kro Salma mujhsay... Aab toh mein kbhi na krwaoon apnay betay ki shaadi iss awara or bud kirdaar lrki say jo pta nai kitnay larkoon keh saath chakr chalaya ho iss nay....

Waah Aapa meri beti awaara or bud kirdaar toh aap ka beta kya hai haan... Woh toh jeysay doodh say dula hua hai naa.... Oss ka nai pta aapko... Pta bhi kya ho ga aapko... Kbhi fursat milay aapko dusroon ki zindagi barbaad krnay say toh apnay betay ko dekhain naa... Jo na jaanay kitni larkiyoon say ishq keh charchay ura rha hota hai.... Oss ka kya kahani gi aap... Kuch nai....
