Hina reached home at around 9 p.m. She talked to her mother for a while, and then went up to her bed to lie down. As she lay down a lot of delusions started crowding her mind. Wardatul Sa’adat’s words were coming back to her again and again. She tried sleeping, but sleep had already escaped her eyes. She remained in the same condition for many days. Wardatul Sa’adat’s words had made their place in the depths of her consciousness.

This made her come face to face with melancholy. The tension about the future made her morose. When she was returning home in a taxi after meeting Asrar, tears flowed down her eyes. A wave of delusion was rising within her. The grief of the soul that she had managed to suppress a long time back had now miraculously become a dark spot within her. She felt satisfaction filling up her mind and heart because of the initiated feeling of love. But the memory of what Wardatul Sa’adat had said changed that satisfaction into wretchedness and despair. She was unable to decipher the situation. The handkerchief she had placed over her mouth while crying had made her throat ache. She had never wailed like that before.
