"Oh my God! The damn class ."She said this as soon as she woke up. What a great way to start your morning. She grabbed her phone .Which was dead as usual. She put it on charging and clicked the link appearing on screen.
" Its 8 PM in the schedule not 8 AM ,now stop messing up my sleep,you stupids".
Message appeared right after clicking the bloody link.
"Oh! What a great compliment to start a day,Any ways " ..... A devilish smile appeared on a Leo's face.
She strolled towards bathroom.
She saw herself in the bathroom mirror than. Almond shaped eyes , brown coloured of course, rough appearance, hairs by Zindaya ( From Spider man Far from home) but a bit straightened, fair complexion , chubby cheeks , lips like every body else. She was cute but not hot ,she thought!
Scene # 2 :
Location : Punjab (Pakistan)
"If we are unable to find the real culprit let's punish the one we can find" a man wearing white Shalwar Kameez said furiously!
"But its wrong ,Father! Only the real culprit should be punished for his crime.Neither his siblings ,nor his parents " . said the humbled young guy.
"You are talking too much these days " the arrogant man said this and left.
Arrogant man didn't even turn to see tears in his Son's eyes!
"Ahmed!" he wiped his eyes as someone called him.
Scene # 3:
Location : Punjab (Pakistan)
"Drink this ,and than we will go." a mid aged lady said to the cute but not hot girl.
"Sure" she replied.
She clicked the snap and edited the text "black coffee sucks"
And than sent it to her 4 friends from Snapchat.
"Zuni ! No matter how many times you click this , its will be the same mug and same coffee , why you kids waste time in all this useless stuff"
"Motherrr ! No matter how many times you say this to me , it will be the same complement and same Zunaira , why you oldies waste time in all this" An immediate devilish laughter follows the conversation.
A flying shoe (chappal) also follows the conversation...." You think so that your mother is an oldie ask your father to bring you a young one" . Brown mothers are just like this....it is what it is.
After 5 minutes she was in a garden . From where her whole village can be seen. And that house can be seen as well! Only double story house in the village. That house never fails to mess
up her mind.
"Go open the lock " her mother said while giving her the keys.
"Safia bibi! You really think he will come back? I just want to be this much optimistic in my life." Devilish smile appeared again.
Safia bibi didn't reply.
"So It is a shut up call. I can get it."
She was walking on a track made up of simple bricks. Leading to a room. There was a huge old-fashioned lock on the door of room. But lock was shining. Lock number 11 ,she saw it and a innocent smile appeared on her face.
She opened the lock.
Scene # 4:
Location : Karachi (Pakistan)
"I literally have nothing to give you guys but failure,sorrows and depression. You want some." He was looking like a man who has lost everything. He was handsome but pretty much a looser.
"Let this doomed lover go " said one of the robbers.Oh my sweet robbers of Karachi.
" There are other pains in life than the pain of love"... another quote appeared.
"At least tell us your name!" Other robber shouted. Oh my sensible robbers of Karachi.
"I am Hashir" the ultimate looser ,he said rest of part in his heart and walked away.
Scene # 5 :
Location : South Korea
"Hey you start snoring ,right now " a handsome devil said to a sleeping beauty.
The sleeping guy was like ,you think I care ,Duh!
"It's been two hours I am waiting for you to snore . You asshole ,you are a bastard "... Meanwhile handsome devil slept as well. That masculine urge to sleep while doing something!
Scene # 6 :
Location : Punjab (Pakistan)
"Get up sleepy head , why you are sleeping twenty four - seven , get up"....."Zunaira .....get up" His voice was loud enough for a dead person to knock his grave..... but Zunaira and her commitment with her bed was stronger than commitment between a dead person and his grave.
He was left with only one option. He went near her , shook her arm with his complete force and meanwhile she got up with a loudest shriek.....he was kind of ready for this, but got terrified and moved ten steps back.And there she was sitting like a person who just lost his everything and want to leave this world.
" You my stupid brother ,you terrified me" She said in a trembling voice.
"Well.. I would say "... He was trying to clear his point.
" Don't , just don't say , whatever you are going to say"...the decision was clear.
" We should go to Lahore(A city in Punjab) , because you wanna buy some books and meet a friend of yours, but I won't say it " he said.
"You are the most decent brother one can have ." she said in a dramatic voice.
"No ,Iam not" he left.
After an hour they both were sitting in a car with their stuff.And in this one hour their parents gave them a lecture on how to drive and behave at their uncle's house,where they were going to stay for the next night.
She belonged to a middle class family. Pakistanis not always treat each other by class differences. They are contented with what they are. This car ,her father bought it by selling some of land he owned.He was never able to afford it anyway. He just bought it because his childs most particularly Fahad considered it embarrassing to not own a car. This car is also not staying that much long with them. Because as soon as need arrives, it has to go. This is circle of a brown family . Get a thing after fascinating it for ages and than let it go when you don't have any other option.
Her family consisted of two brothers, her father and her mother.About his siblings ,both older than her, one stupid dude who was driving car right now named Fahad with whom she was quite frank. And the other one named Hashir the most hated one ever. Something again grabbed her heart.
Scene # 7 :
Location : Lahore Pakistan
"Now its my turn" she said. While traveling they always used to have turns for playing music.
"Almost paradise".... She was humming to the only understandable part of melody.
" Why are you so obsessed with Korea and Korean music? You can't even understand this song, dude!" He was offended.
"It's hitting right in the feels man!" Zunaira and her obsession with Korea.
"Anyways, you will never be able to visit Korea". A mocking smile appeared.
"let's wait and watch " she just said this without a damn reason.
She started peeping outside. Until she saw a woman selling black threads. (Which Pakistani Muslim girls often wear as a protection against evil eyes.)
"Hey hey stop the car !I have to buy that for Sarah ,wait until I come back "
"OK " . He applied Brakes.
She grabbed her clutch. And ran towards that woman.
" I want 5,how much? " Zunaira said.
"but I can guarantee only 1" woman replied.
"what do you mean? " she was shocked.
"your one wish will come true" woman replied.
"Who are you? " Zunaira asked.
" you can CALL ME A WHITE WITCH"
