chapter 2

One end of Khadija's scarf was lying on top of our iron belt.

And there were some coins on top of it.

Which she was putting in pot one by one.

In which my mother used to collect money.

I stood in amazement and watched her do all this ...!

As soon as she did his job and turned around ...

So she was shocked to see me ... !!

"A. .aah.. .I ... wasn't doing anything ... !!"

She stammered.

"I know you were putting money in it , but why?"

I asked in astonishment.

"I am aware of the situation in your house Asif. aunt has been running out of sewing for a few days now. That is why I have given her a little help. By the way, if I gives it, she will not take it. Please don't tell your mother .."

After explaining, she spoke in a pleading tone. "Well I don't tell her."

That I went to another room!

I kept remembering Khadija's words about how that innocent girl was helping us.

I don't know how many times she has put his expenses in our money pot ..

I made up my mind to go to town

And I will make my mother happy by reading and writing

and I will also pay off Khadija's debt.

I didn't want to digest Khadija's expenses for free.!

She was a really kind girl..

I was really impressed with it!

I started reading more diligently than before.

One evening I was reading books open.

She came to me and sat down.

And when she started looking at my books,

I remember that it was an Urdu book ...

Which she was watching..

And then after a while she put her finger on the '' ٹ'"of the word 'بیٹ' and said

" what's this?"

I said it's "ٹ'"

Began to say

"But it wasn't when we read it."

I smiled helplessly at her innocence!

And she looked at me angrily

"You're making fun of my illiteracy ..."

And I suddenly became serious.

No, that was not my intention

In fact, the rule you read was not in Urdu but in Arabic

And the letter "ٹ" does not come in Arabic.

"Okay,"

she said, looking at the book again

"Asif"

After a while he say

"Yes"

I started looking at her

"Teach me to read Urdu too"

Khadija looked at me with hope and said!

"Ahh..... amm... you want to read?"

I said thinking!

"Yes"

She said in an optimistic tone ...!

Seeing Khadija's interest, I couldn't stop despite my busy schedule ...!

She proved to be an intelligent girl.

She soon learned to read Urdu.

She was a really smart girl.

One day she told me in an enthusiastic tone that three or four of her friends have also come to study Urdu.

I was really impressed with the girls' love of reading

And he promised himself that one day, God willing, there would be a school for girls in this village...Will open

Ninth exams were approaching

I was busy studying ...

So that good results come

and after doing tenth,

I can get admission in a good college in the city

I felt that Khadija had not been coming to our house for two or three days.

When I asked my mother,

she told me that Khadija's elder sister was getting married

She is busy preparing for it

I'm bored..😶

And the heart wanted,

Come only for a short time..

She was like a family man

Now that she was gone, she was missing . 😓

I packed my books and came out.

Sajid was Khadija's brother.

He was my best friend

He only read up to the fifth ...

Now he was often in the field with his father ...

I walked towards Sajid's house.

Khadija was embroidering on a framed cloth ...

Aunt Abida was very happy to see me

And she smiled and said

"Look who's here today."

Khadija looked and said

"Wow big guys have come"😁

I did not go to anyone's house in the village

So they were surprised when I came ..😎😎.

"I had some work to do, that's why I came ... is Sajid at home?"

I made an excuse while looking at the room ... !!😬

"No, he's in the field with dad."

Khadija said

"Okay, let's go then I'll go," I said and started to get up.

"How come ... go and make tea khadija"

She said lovingly so I sat down

Taken Tea !

And came home ...!

A few days later, Khadija's older sister got married

And so did my papers

Now I was in the tenth

Khadija still used to come to our house

But when she didn't come, I was surrounded by a strange sadness.

Suddenly one day I thought that when

Khadija will get married

Then what will I do ...!

Maybe she will go to another village....

Far away....!!!

My heart began to pound at the thought

I got up...

And the cold wind blew on the roof.

My heart was pounding ...
