Discovery and Hurt (Part 2)
Everyone was firm about the fact that I had to stay in the car. I had talked to my mom on the phone and she, out of happiness, offered Nafls of gratitude.I didn't tell her what had happened to Sarah.
"Mehreen," My uncle now walked up to the car, moving to sit in the front seat. I was sitting in the back, so grew alert as his sight. He looked overly stressed and consumed by worry as he turned to face me that I could help but feel concerned. I prayed for the ease of his worries.

Usman"But why?" A broken, accidental retort finally slipped from Usman. He was just so shocked and strangely hurt by the knowledge. Fahad was behind it all. After being so helped, he had been the cause of making his family feel so misery and pain. He couldn't believe that. In fact, He didn't want to believe that. It was a shattering notion. Also, this house belonged to his friend, so why on earth was Fahad claiming it as his own?
The Midnight Trap -A BRIEF GLIMPSE-
Fahad was staring out of his house's window, down at the dark weeds. His fists were clenched as he pondered over how exactly the world had betrayed him, but he would try...attempt to always protect people..He had been only seven when he had run away from his terror house and got caught by authorities. The authorities had shoved him into a local orphanage, but Fahad had never forgotten his past...his pain. That is why he chose to return and protect his real mother. Although, he never referred to them as his parents because they had never told him to; they hated when Fahad called them mother and father.Fahad's father was a stern man. He had kept Fahad and his mother locked up in a secluded house in Murree. And, after that phase and his new family's betrayal, he had learned that the guilty had to pay. This is why he hid his mother away, hid so many people. He wanted to help. Now, he just hoped that Mehreen would realize this reasoning and decide to stay.He really wanted to save her.
The Midnight Trap Orphanage and Reasons
An hour-long drive finally led to an old orphanage built near the riverside of Rawalpindi. Uncle, Papa and the Chief were the ones visiting this place. One day had already passed, and I was really hoping for this place to help me in making my decision. Rehana and Sarah were waiting.Walking inside the huge orphanage, which comprised of a huge white building and a lush green garden, I kept a few feet behind the men and looked around at the children playing in the garden; they seemed so young and lonely. Places like these reminded me of how ungrateful I had always been. Sigh!"May I help you?" The warden now stepped forward, seeing us enter the building; she was wearing thin eye frames and looked rather old. Papa and the rest of the men had already walked away into the corridor, while I nodded.Taking a deep breath, I stepped forward and politely shook hands with the woman. "W-we are here to get information about a young boy 'Fahad' you took in a few years ago. Do you remember him?" I go

Inside, Fahad was pacing by the room's window, with his arms folded behind his back."My daughter has made her decision," Usman announced, stepping inside the room. "It's time for you to quit your games.""Hmm..." Fahad halted, with a smirk evident in his voice. "And her decision is?""She wants your mother to live a free life.""My mother?" Fahad's mood immediately turned confused. "How does she know about my mother.?""She met her in the forest.," Usman replied in a chipped voice. "Your mother
