Seemab, my dearest child, my love….
Nanny, please don’t try to get me to be agreeable.
Okay, but one doesn’t stay so angry, my dear.
She’s just a guest.
She’ll leave in a few days.
I don’t see how that’s possible.
You can see that Mama has even had all her stuff placed in my room!
What of her stuff?
We’ll just get it removed.
When will she be removed?
You did not like her one little bit?
No!
As such, even I don’t get the girl.
And…
How come her parents just sent her over?
Exactly!
Now just see.
The people who have never liked Mom all their lives,
sent their daughter to stay at our house.
Why?
Why?
Well, how would I know?
Go and ask Mom yourself!
Okay, come on now, forget it.
Let’s have dinner.
All of the dishes are your favorite.
Go and feed it to your guest!
I don’t want to eat it.
I have ordered dinner for myself.
Oh, so all of this is just an excuse to have restaurant food delivered to you.
You should go. Your dinner is getting cold. I’ll have something.
Well then, as you wish.
I wonder what everyone would be doing right now…
Will anyone feel my absence?
Would anyone be thinking about me?
The girl who would sleep hugging me has become so distant
and unacquainted today that I’m not even allowed to mention her name?
It’s not Zoobi who left,
Someone has taken out my heart and ran away with it.
No!
Everyone who have thanked God that I was sent away from there.
I had taught her how to walk holding my finger.
If she would get tired,
I’d lift her onto my shoulders and kiss her little pink ankles.
She learnt to walk in such a way…
that she simply got out of our hands.
She used to be so finicky about the food at meal times.
Who will I pamper now?
Everyone must have sat down together to have their dinner.
Cousin Daniyal must have joined them as well.
Oh God,
Are the people in my family going to hate me like this forever?
The foolishness of both the kids have shaken both the families to the core.
However, despite that, I pray to God to Grant ….
all of us with more of His Mercy and Kindness.
And all of you ….
also pay more attention to your own individual tasks, chores or work.
Furthermore,
The lightheartedness of this family
and the peace and contentment should continue the same as before.
There’s nothing to worry about.
The one who did the crime has already been exiled.
Now there will be peace and contentment in this house.
She is a mother after all.
It is not that easy to bear it.
What are you doing here?
I was trying to sleep.
So why not in your own room?
Because you had told me to give my room to your ‘dear’ niece.
I had asked you to share your room.
That I cannot do!
Get up.
Go on, get up.
Take your quilt…
and go to your room.
There are other rooms in this house.
She can stay there.
Thanks!
Why are you sitting out here?
Actually I had wanted both of you to have some sort of a bonding between yourselves.
It’s okay though, it’ll happen.
Come,
I’ll show you your room,
hmm?
Come with me.
Let’s go.
You were quite late.
Come now.
Have some breakfast.
I’m getting very late. I have to go.
Wait, wait, hold on.
I’ll drop you at the University.
I have to go there anyways.
Why?
I want to get some information regarding Zobia’s admission.
My Van is here.
I have to go.
Leaving her home and her parents, why would she take an admission here?
Why would that be a problem for you?
What problem would I have….
if you don’t have any problem with it?
Look,
the child went without any breakfast …and you don’t care any which way.
Nan, Simi is really embarrassing me a lot.
What must Zoobi be thinking?
I brought her here because of Simi.
She has become kind of weird being alone and by herself.
I had assumed that Zobia would come here,
they would meet, bond with each other,
spend time with each other,
but she’s not willing to tolerate it.
Anyways,
please go and ask Zoobi to come for breakfast.
Oh, I had gone to ask her.
She says she’s going to sleep some more.
She’s sleepy.
Mmm, it’s a new place for her.
That’s why she might not have slept well.
What exactly are you hiding?
What do you assume me to be?
Have your breakfast. You start off as soon as it is morning.
Do you have any grudge or complaint against us?
If you think it is our fault,
then please say it.
Tell us.
I don’t understand anything.
There is one matter.
Go ahead, say it.
I want to forget everything that happened,
but there is one….
That…
You should leave.
Go on.
What’s the matter?
Why are you crying?
Okay then, I have laid out the supper. You can come downstairs and have some.
Good girl,
come quickly.
Greetings…
Nanny, has Simi come home?
Yes, sure, she came a long time ago and is closed up in her room too.
Okay.
Did she have lunch?
No, she was saying that she already had a burger.
Right and did Zoobi have lunch?
I went to see Zoobi in her room.
I don’t know what’s the matter. She’s just sitting in the room and continues to cry.
Don’t know what remorse she has which she’s holding deep inside her.
I…
Nana, I’ll talk to you when I return.
Bye.
Seemab dear,
Look at me. Why are you annoyed with me?
I’m not annoyed with you.
Alright then, wait I’ll go and prepare your favorite drink for you.
I don’t want to drink anything.
Okay, what would you like to eat? Should we make a pizza?
I don’t want to eat anything right now.
This is a very difficult job.
Greetings.
Greetings to you too.
You came early today!
Someone was angry with me. I came to resolve matters.
She’s in a very bad mood. She’s not talking to me either.
Okay. You can go ahead inside.
Greetings.
Okay, so someone is still in a bad mood.
Well, I had brought her favorite chocolates and a whole lot of it too.
Go and give it to your favorite one then.
To my favorite?
That is you.
Yeah, right!
Come here near me.
Come here.
Come here.
Tell me something.
Can anyone take your place in my life?
No, my dearest.
I have only brought a friend for you.
Mom, you know quite well.
I don’t know how to make friends.
Why don’t you understand? You are enough for me.
I neither have any need for friends nor any relatives;
especially those relatives….
who, instead of supporting you in your difficult times,
left you all alone just because you wanted to be independent.
If my father didn’t turn out to be a good man, what was your fault in that?
Dear…If they had not left me all by myself,
how would I have been able to stand on my own two feet?
Mom, stop defending them.
I know you are not liked in the family.
My child, that is a problem in our Society.
The woman who decides matter by herself is not considered to be a good person,
though it is a fact that times are changing now.
Yeah, times are changing so much now
that they have sent their own daughter with you, right?
Then, my dearest, what is Zoobi’s fault in all this?
Look,
she had wanted to study further
she had wanted to move forward.
