DARD(pain)

chapter - 1

Their is hustle bustle in the haveli as their nephew was coming after so many years with his family.

While everyone was smiling showing how happy they were. Their in a room filled with silence, a girl covered in duvet from head to toe was shaking. Shaking because she can no longer hold her tears, because she can no longer fake smile. She can't.

A knock on the door makes a girl to cover her mouth so that the person on other side of the door don't hear her sobs.

"Beta wake up" she heard a feminine voice which she recognized. It was her tayi ma.

"Sulaiman will be reaching in 5-10 minutes and here you are sleeping" again she heard her tayi ma.

She removed the duvet and got up. Her vision was blue and her eyes were itching. She rubbed her eyes and tried to make her vision clear.

She took a long breathe and cleared her throat.

"I am up tayi ma, I will ready in few mins" she replied.
"Come downstairs before he arrives" her tayi ma said to which she replied with 'yes'.

She got freshen up as per her saying and came down only to be bumped with one of her cousin brother.

"Aapi are you still sleepy?" Her cousin replied to which she ignored and started walking towards kitchen.
"Because you are in your prince dream" he said dreamily to which she narrowed her eyes.

"Aapi what happened? Why do you look so dull?" He asked in concern.
"Just a little bit headache" she replied.

Headache or heartache

Her subconsciousness asked.

Tears were threatening to come out but she forcefully pushed them back.

She went in the kitchen and started helping her ammi and tayi ma.

She was washing the vessels when a car horn made her heart to skip thousands beats.

"Ammi bhai has arrived" she heard her younger cousin yell.

"Mannat come" her cousin dragged her.

She stood with her head low feared of her tears.

What am I going to do?
What if tears rush down once I see him?
What will I do?

"Bhai" her cousin voice made her flinch and she came out of her thoughts.

"You are choking me" His voice made her to look up at him who was being hugged by her brother. Not just a hug but a bone crushing hug.

"Ohh sorry sorry" Aslam said while backing off.
"How are you bhai? What took you so long to visit us? Where is phuppu?wh...." Aslam was interrupted with a smack on his head by Ayan, one of her cousin.

"Let him take a breathe first you idiot" said Ayan.

Tayi ma went forward and cupped his head with moist eyes.

"How are you my son?" She asked.
"I am fit and fine mami but I missed you so so much" he said and hugged her.

"And what about me?" Her Taya abbu asked making all of us smile.

"I missed you so much" he said while hugging his Mamu.

"How are you mannat?" He asked making mannat look at him.
