Chapter 4

Hayat's P.O.V

After six days

It has been six months since grandmother has passed away. But the wound is still alive and suffering me like it happened yesterday..

The pain is killing me slowly.

Now I am living for a reason to pay back my debut.

Grandmother's daughter Aunt Liya said right. I was a burden on her mother. Because of me her mother left them and start living with me in the orphanage..

Because of me she left her peaceful life. She did everything for me. And I paid a role like a worthless girl in her life..

I failed to saw her pain. I failed to saw her suffering. I never doubt on her when she is used to visit to hospital. When she used to lock herself in her room for hours.

I believed her lies.

She used to tell me that she visit hospital sometimes because her friend worked at the hospital.

And I believed it..

She told me she is likes to stay alone sometimes. That's why she locked herself in her room.

And like a fool I believed it..

She hide her pain, her suffering, her diseases from me so that I can live happily.

Laying on her bed I looked at her photograph while tear rolling down from my eyes.

Why you lied to me grandmother?

I should never weng to Paris. I should have stayed at your side.

You sent me because you wanted to leave without telling me.

Whispering this I eye went towards the table where I had kept her latter.

I didn't open this latter till now.

Though sister Amina told me grandmother written in that latter that my Abbu (father) is no longer in this world.

My Abbu (father) was dead that night grandmother took me from road..

I was living my life in lies till now. I was thinking that Abbu (father) will come to me but my fate explained to me the worst reality.

That I am alone.

I take latter with my shaking hand and opened it.

And start reading her last words for me.

My beloved Hayat

I know you must be angry with me for hiding this truth that I am suffering from cancer along with heart diseases. Doctor told me I don't have much time left. Yes, dear I am going leave this world, I am going to leave you.

I knew if I told you about my diseases. You would have broken, you would have forgotten your goal and most importantly you would have loss yourself with me.

I know dear my death will leave a wound on your heart but the wound you heal with time dear.

I know Today, you achieved your goal. Today, you came back home after completing your study. Though I am not physically with you but my prayer will always be with you dear.

And Today, I am so proud of you. You fulfilled my dream my dear. May Allah bless you dear.

Now I want to say something to you dear. I want to say those serect to you which I had been hiding from you since 20 years.

My dear, that night I found you outside my orphanage and took you with you that night I heard a man was killed near my orphanage.

Being curious I took DNA simple from you and went that hospital where road people sent that body. And requested the doctor to do a DNA test First, the doctor denied but I convinced him after he did.

And my doubt came true. That man was your father.

Believed me dear I tried to search for your father's family, and his killer but danger fall upon me.

Some people tried to kill me when I filed a case of you father's death to police. Even they tried to hurt my orphanage's kids. So, I took my case back because I feared they will kill my innocent orphans kids...

But they didn't stop there one day some people came our orphanage at night and asked me about you. They doubt on me that maybe I had you, but I lied to them I just filed that case sake of humanity nothing else and I don't know about any kid.

They left that day, but never stop following me. I don't know dear who are they? And why they killed you father?

Even I don't know why they want to kill you too?

Forgive me my dear Hayat. Please forgive me for hiding this truth.

I wanted to tell you about your father but sawing you every second in your life waiting for you father I didn't have the power to tell you the truth.

I know I did mistake hiding it. Because of me you were in dark thinking that one day your father will come to take you back.

You know dear when I first saw you outside of orphanage. I saw some dogs barking near you and you are a just trying to push them moving your tiny hands. That moment I thought you must be mute because anyone if in your place he or she would scream in fear.

But when I run towards you and push those dogs you looked at me fearfully and whisper softly Thank you, in the softest and innocent voice I ever heard.

When I asked you why you were not making noise to push those dogs you replied your father asked you not to make noise so, you were trying to push them moving your hands.

That little incident proved how much your father's word mean to you. The three years girl can keeping mute accepting danger just for following her father's word then she must loved her father more than anything else..

Even I saw you dear talking with you father pretending that he was listening to you. I saw you sharing your every single activity with your father.

So tell me dear how can I tell the girl that her beloved father was death? How can I break her heart?

I didn't have the power dear. I didn't have. Forgive me dear.

But never think that you are alone in this world. Never let any pain take over you. Achieve your every dream. Make your parents proud.

I sure your parents also wanted you live happily my dear fulfilled their wishes. Remember the sweet moments and make new memories.

Never forget that happiness always come after sadness. One day you will spark with happiness like a star my dear. Don't loss yourself in grief.

Be free from pain and go forward your success is waiting for you...

From the person who love you the most.

Your Grandmother.

After finishing the letter Hayat burst out into crying. She start crying her heart out when sister Amima entered her room and hugged her feeling her pain.
