It's was almost thirty minutes since Farah and Seher were discussing about the emails, Farah had been receiving. Farah was seated on the lower end of the bed with her legs crossed while Seher  sat on the upper end of it with her hands folded and balanced beneath her chin.

"I never wanted to discuss this with you or mama," Farah sighed maintaining a sharp eye contact with Seher.
She unfolded her hands that were previously entangled in between.
"But now it has came up eventually." she completed.

Just then they heard a sound from outside the bedroom door.
"I guess mama's here." she announced to Seher and she walked up to her bedroom door sluggishly Seher following her.

As they reached the door, to their surprise Mahreen was standing next to the door. From her agitated facial expressions it seemed as if she had heard the whole conversation between Farah and Seher.

"Mama, you scared us." Seher hilariously said to Mahreen who stood there glaring their faces plainly.
"Listen I heard you two talk," she replied and Farah walked to her, stood beside Seher.

Mahreen walked into Farah's room and Seher and Farah walking after her until she stopped in the middle of the room.
"I really want to tell you both something regarding the person who has been emailing Farah." she completed.

"Your father and I did married by our own choice and loved eachother until a year or two of our marriage. But things started to changed and before you two were born, we ended up hating each other," she started to narrate while they sat on the bed and she took the nearby chair.

"I won't lie with you about him. After you two were born he really loved you two, like the most important thing in his life though we still never got along very well." she took a long breath as Farah and Seher constantly looked at her, hungry to know more.

"But one day he came to me and said that he has found another woman and wants to marry her. I told him to divorce me first and then do whatever he wishes to do with his life. In the meanwhile he was appointed on apparently his last mission and left for it." she turned her face towards the other wall opposite to her.

"Did he got married to that woman?" Farah asked.
"I don't know because he never came from the mission. I got to know after years that he is alive and is working as an undercover officer," she replied to Farah.

"I never turned back to him because it was decided, after he would come back from the mission, he would officially divorce me and marry her. So that's why I never felt the need to tell you two about him." she finally stopped maintaining a shaky eye contact with both of them.

"I never expected him to be such a person." Seher said sadly.
"The way he tried to approach us, for a moment I thought he really cares for us." Farah added.
"You two are adults now, I did what I believed was better to do. Now it's your choice, you want to see him or not." she told both of them.

"Mama are you kidding? How can we ever turn to him?" Seher replied her, childishly grabbing her arm.
"It's over now," Farah added as she joined Seher, hugging Mahreen.
"We love you mama, he had already abandoned us years ago so let it be." Farah replied while hugging her tightly.

Farah was dressed in a shirt of combination of sky blue and yellow gold coupled with white straight trousers and a blue chiffon dupatta draped over her chest it's ends flowing at the back of her shoulders. Her feet was beautifully donning blue flats with beads.

She was seated next to an exqusite glass showpiece that shined like a diamond as the beam of light fell on it. Her surroundings included dark brown toned tables and chairs, with lots of flowers under the strings of dim lights hanging in between the gaps in the roof making it look extremely breathtaking and mesmerising.

Despite the surrounding were with no doubt soothing enough to pacify any person's mood but today it didn't worked on Farah. She sat there totally lost in her thinking with her eyes gleaming with sorrow.

"Wow, how did this happen?" Ahmer sarcastically said to me while taking the seat opposite to me.
"What?" I awkardly answered while making sure I look fine or not.
"You are here before time!" He replied her and laughed to which I pretended to laugh too.
"What happened?" He asked her observing my facial expressions.

I looked at his face for a moment or two plainly before I opened my sealed lips, narrating him the whole incident.
"I literally have no words." Ahmer said.
"For a moment I thought he loved us that's why he came back but he never loved any of us," I continued and he rubbed my hand to calm me down.

"I hate him." I said and drops of fresh tears started to flow down my face.
"Farah, it's okay. This is life, we need to move on. You need to stay strong," he said and I glanced him controlling my tears.

"He is gone now and you have lot's of people who need you, who love you and who care for you. Life must go on, people come and go and that's how the cycle of universe goes on." he almost put up a deep speech for me and did managed to calm me due to his convincing tone.
"You are good motivational speaker," I joked at him and he embarrassingly laughed.
"Why are you working as a CA?" I said with a smile on her gloomy face.

"You know what I am multi talented." he started to brag in no more less than a minute and I couldn't do anything but laugh excessively.
"Whatever, let's order." I replied and he picked up the menu forwarding me out of his childish courtesy.

Ahmer pov
We had almost finished dinner when smooth breeze started to flow past us. I felt a little parched so I decided to drink some water before finishing my food.

As I was sipping water, I saw someone from the opposite side walking towards me. Due to dim lights I squished my eyes to see clearly. Now I saw it, it was not one but four people approaching us.

The moment I identified their faces they were about just a few steps away from our table. I was freaking out now, sweat droplets appeared on my face and water choked into my throat. I started coughing.

In the meanwhile Farah gazed me amazingly and said
"Ahmer, are you okay."
I kept coughing until those people approached us, Farah turned back and let out a shocking low shout.

'We don't see things as they are, we see things as we are.....'
