After Neena left Sara felt peace as one feels after passing the storm. She felt the peace of a person who saw the things clearly after removing the fog from front of his eyes for so long . Now She found herself free from abusive behavior of her little sister which was constantly testing her patience .The distance that came between her and Robin when Neena was here start reducing gradually .
Sara could feel the ease as her contracted soul was trying to spread its wings joyfully.Wings that had been stuck under the painful burden of unknown fears .Her soul was ready to throw them away.
But still being a girl she felt hard to step forward first towards her husband .This hesitation was product of her society in which she was brought up . In her society girls were protected by their parents . They were not allowed to play with boys after a certain age .They have to keep distance from their own cousins.
Their society was divided into three main parts .One of them was so called religious and extremest in his life style where mails were predominating and women were treated by them like slaves or animals.From birth to death men control their lives and use their physical weakness and mental unconsciousness of their own rights and ignorance for their benefits .
Second group was of middle class where environment of life was quite suit able for the natural growth of women . where they were allowed to take decisions of their life within certain boundaries.
They were able to get education and even to select their life partner approved by their parents .Still they have limits .Much exposure that could harm them was banned .Sara belonged to to this group ,Though she was a confident girl but hate and fear for men caused by worse environment provided by her father built strong walls around her being through which she could not breath without thinking that men are selfish and unfaithful they don't deserve trust of woman .
But long and patient wait of Robin proved that he deserves her love and trust .The way Robin survived as modest man fighting against Neena's sensational closeness it rooted his love in Sara's heart so deep.Sara was waiting for the moment when Robin hold her hand and she will not pull it back.
On the other hand Robin 's patience was tested by the awkward conditions he was put in by his sister in law often.He was patient and mature so he could stopped himself to make any mistake .Mistake that can scatter thorns in his way to Sara .He prevented himself from felling down where Neena was pulling him so badly.
Robin wanted Sara to realize his sufferings.Being so close to hir and at the same time so away was a test he thought he will fail in soon.
One day he told Sara that he is going to another city to attend an office meeting and will come back after two days .That was the season of fall and they were sitting on the top of roof of their house .Sun rays were showering softly upon the brown face of earth .It was Sunday afternoon .Sara could see the upper branches of the tree in their yard .Its branches were almost bare there were very few leaves still hanging with few of them as requesting to the branches that please dont let us go hold us we are the same whom you loved and be proud over .
While hearing this Sara Felt as something is sinking inside her chest ,She felt that right now she is just like those leaves that are about to depart from the tree .There raised a unheard cry in her heart full of grief and sorrow .And Robin saw pearl like tears rolling down her beautiful cheeks .Robin who was sitting front of her was surprised .He suddenly got up and came near to Sara he sat beside her and hold her hands in his strong warm hands and asked .What is the matter Sara ? why are you Crying ? Did mom ...but he could not complete his sentence .Sara said Is it possible ?
what ?Robin asked as he could not get anything .Can i go with you Sara asked while her tears were still dropping fast .Robin could not believe his ears .his heart leaped over but he want to be sure that is this what he got .He did not realized that his hold on Sara's hands became strong .I want to go with you please take me with you ,Sara said and felt at the same time her heart free and light.
Though it was an office meeting but Robin in that moment felt on the top of the world .He could not afford to waste this most precious moment of his life .His eyes were dreamy and heart alcoholic like .At very this moment he wanted to for get the whole world including his job. He decided that he will take Sara along go to the same city but will not attend any meeting .He will spend each single moment of these two days with Sara .
He could not hug Sara because they were on the roof and many other people were also far and near on their roofs According to their culture husband can touch his wife only in privacy not front of others .But he told Sara that ofcourse she can go with him he removed tears from her cheeks and it was first time that Sara did not object on his this move .They both got downstairs with having peace in their hearts .They got in their room and Sara prepared luggage for the journey .
Robin informed her mother about this and Helda felt as she want to kill Sara immediately .In this house it never happened before that any of her son gave as importance to his wife .I will not let her do this Helda thought crucially she will have to pay for this sin.Helda felt hard to hid her feeling of anger that moment.
It was pretty freezing night of December when Robin and Sara left for Karachi.They sat in the train compartment where already a couple was sitting.They both were quite healthy and of friendly nature .But robin and Sara both were walking in world of their dreams they were unable to see their surroundings .Their hearts were pulling them towards each other .They wanted to be alone to share their beings with each other.Each moment were long as century .they both did not lay down whole night because to do so they had to move little away from each other and they could not bear this .
They passed whole journey sitting beside each other ,when they felt sleepy Robin put his back against the seat and closed his eyes he asked Sara to lay down on the seat and put her head in his lap.Thought Sara did not wanted to lay while Robin was sitting but just to feel the touch of his warm lap she laid down and fell asleep like a child who finds peace in his mother's lap.

You are a beautiful beautiful writer!
ReplyDeleteNever quit or give up...this is quite a gift!
This is sweet. A good story!
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful story!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. I am worried for their happiness though.
ReplyDeleteA Great story based on limited freedom of choice within marriage which people in the western world take for granted. Most people like the romantic part of any story but not the controlling and interfering by parents, in-laws and other local religious beliefs.
ReplyDeleteas a photographer I tend to look more at the images then to read the story :(
ReplyDeleteLovely story =) Great image ;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and intriguing story.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting read!
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting story. I am glad that love won out in time.
