All of this happened because of me, Grandpa.
If I hadn’t done all this Zoobi wouldn’t be in such a state.
Alright, but atleast stop crying, child.
I swear, Grandpa.
I had only want to get her out of the house.
I didn’t want anything to happen to her.
Okay, tell me.
Who is she?
She is Mom’s niece.
Hmm..
Okay, now, Seemab dear, you are a very sensible girl.
So, how did you happen to go against your mother?
I had just lost my mind, Grandpa.
Mom also says that if someone is hurt and in pain because of us
then even God does not forgive them!
What if something happens to Zobia?
Oh, no, no, nothing will happen….nothing will happen.
All you need to do is pray …
and ask for forgiveness.
And when that child comes back home,
you should apologize to her as well.
I’ll give Sitara a call
and ask her what the situation is now.
Aunty, I’m such a bad person, right?
Everyone hates me, Aunty.
Even if the whole world starts to hate you,
your Aunty will always love you.
I will always be with you as your shield against all.This my promise to you.
Hmm?
Enough now, dear.
My sweet child, enough of this.
Just rest now…
and go to sleep, yes?
Please,
rest for a little while, dear.
Mom, how is Zoobi now?
What does it matter to you?
You’ve done what you wanted to do to her.
Her family was mistreating her. She had gotten fed up with that and came to me.
But then, what was the point of bringing her to my home?
Mom, I had never wanted any of this.
But, I didn’t want this either.
I’m sorry, Mama.
The sad part is that I wasn’t able to change the views of my own family.
What am I going to do about changing the views of others?
You know what?
The family of the guy who had convinced her to run away with him had forgiven him.
However, she is a girl…
She has no chance of being forgiven.
After she is discharged from the Hospital, I will have her sent back to her home.
Mom…
You should go home as well.
Rest for a little while, hmm?
I told you…
Simi isn’t bad at heart.
She’s just a little annoyed with you….Now just look…Her annoyance has ended.
Zoobi, welcome!
How did you like the surprise?
Oh, man!
Why are you crying?
I gave you a surprise.
Listen, I know that I had deeply hurt you.
But, I promise you.
It won’t happen again now.
Okay?
You can even share my room with me as well.
Friends?
Now that’s it!
You are going to complete your education from here.
Okay?
And, once you are well enough, we will also go to meet Grandpa Mehmood.
Oh, she is referring to my ex-colleague.
Okay, not do stop….Are you going to say everything today?
Let her rest.
Come now, dear.
Take some rest while I go rest a while as well…We’ll have a chat later.
So, you tell me.
What were you doing in my room?
Faizan,
who has arrived?
Brother Saim has come.
Is that so?
Hello
How are you?
I’m good.
What’s the matter?
Why are your hands empty today?
You’re not holding your guitar.
I quit.
Why?
I no longer feel like it.
May I ask why?
Grandpa, do I have any right to my own life or not?
Or do I not even have the permission to do that either?
This is quite a beautiful place.
This is what Grandpa does.
Sometimes he works in the garden and sometimes he reads books; and he listens to old songs.
Come along, have a seat.
Aren’t we going inside?
There’s a ‘No Entry’ board there.
What do you mean?
I mean that the outside doors are always open while the doors to the inside are always closed.
All the students sit and wait out here for him.
You should sit here as well.
I’ll quickly go and spoil his gardening.
I am ….
referred to as Sir Mehmood.
I am Seemab’s cousin.
It doesn’t look like it.
I’m not lying.
Hey, an innocent and naïve faced girl like you is not able to tell lies either.
Don’t go for my appearance.
I can lie and deceive as well.
Sure, every person does that deed at some time or the other in his or her life.
At times it is by habit,
at other times it is because they’ve been forced to do so.
Greetings, Grandpa Mehmood.
How are you?
Girl,
why do you address me by name?
Can’t you just say Grandpa?
Why should I force a relationship that God has not granted me?
You know what?
I brought these flowers for you.
You plucked these flowers again?
Okay, fine…. Don’t scold me right now.
I’ll be insulted before my cousin.
Fine,
I won’t scold you today,
but it is only for today!
Okay, fine.
And this is Zobia.
She’ll be coming to study as your student.
You know well that I do not teach books.
I teach life.
Fine, you can teach her anything you like.
She is fed up of her studies.
No,
her attention has not been diverted from her studies.
Oh, she will study much better than you, you foolish girl!
For sure!
She is going to fulfill all of her parents’ dreams!
Okay,
Goodbye.
Who dropped by?
It was someone …
whose eyes betrayed the look that was exactly like yours;
silent,
sad and restless.
What are you saying?
I’m saying what’s true.
Grandpa…
Come on, dinner has been laid out.
Come inside.
Let’s go.
Oh, man! You no longer have interest in anything.
Mom was telling me that you’re really interested in sketching and decoration, right?
I had seen the outside of your terrace.
You had decorated it beautifully!
And your studies?
What’s the matter?
Did I say something wrong?
You’re okay?
Sure?
Okay, come on, forget that. Let’s go somewhere!
I don’t want to go.
No, come on! Get up.
Please, no.
Zoobi,
come on now…
Get up…Get up
Please, I don’t feel like it…
Zoobi, I don’t care. Come on, get up.
Zoobi, please get up.
Come on.
Get up…Get up
Come…
Stand here.
How many days has it been since you brushed your hair?
What are you doing?
Let it be.
They’re fine.
No, they’re not fine.
Open it.
No, no…
You could atleast put on a little make-up.
No,
it will be too much.
Zoobi, be quite!
Let me see.
What are you doing?
I can’t see.
Blend it.
It looks so pretty.
Just look.
Okay, wait.
And put this on as well.
That would be enough, please.
No more.
just listen to me.
