“ kaun 'mahtab' ab tumhara hai

kaun dil ki lagi samajhta hai ”

....

“A memory that never fades away from the mind, even though you keep on trying, you start to believe that its all a bad dream nothing else. You start to believe that its just a bad dream and then you start to live that bad dream as a reality. That memory or the painted bad dream can be anything.”

Rayyan said holding her hands and Afeerah was listening to him very carefully. She didn't said anything for ten minutes but then tears pooled in her eyes.

"You think I act that I'm possessed by a jinn?" She tried to free her hands from his grip, but he holds it more tightly.

"Afeerah I'm just trying to explain you that..."

"That I've some kind of disorder? I came here to tell you this for the first time in eight years that jinn talked to me, he warned me that's he's going to harm you and here you're lecturing me about Psychic of my mind." Afeerah was now getting furious, he's not understanding her.

"Afeerah its 21st century and do you really think Jinn Exist?" Rayyan was getting frustrated with her continuous rant about the same thing.

"Are you not a Muslim? Don't you know that Jinn Exist and they live in the same dimension as us. Just because you're a psychiatrist doesn't mean you can say I'm faking it all."

"Afeerah you're just assuming things. I never said you're faking anything—

"Okay. I'm going. I shouldn't have came here at all." Afeerah got up from the bed and walked out of his room, crying. She was on the end of the corridor when she saw Salma khanam staring at her with strict expression.

"Khanam i was just here to meet Ammi....

"I know Afeerah, what you and Rayyan did behind our backs. But i didn't expected this from you, not from you."

Salma khanam didn't waited for her to explain anything, she walked passed by her, like she doesn't know anything.

The same Salma khanam who claims that Afeerah is her daughter alike, she doesn't even give her a chance to explain herself. Societal status and class difference truly kills the spirit of harmony.

"Ya Allah." Afeerah remembered her Lord, when nobody is understanding her.

Why does we remember only God, when a trial come in our path?

....

Her life has came to an exhausting point where she cannot explain her feelings or hurdles, everyone seems different, her parents, Rayyan too. Day by day her health is deteriorating and everyone thinks its because of stress.

"Afeerah."

She heard her name being called out. The voice is extremely heavy and sharp, felt like somebody pinched her eardrums with a needle. She followed the direction from where her name is being called out. She was now standing outside her house and the same cap wearing man was infront of her.

That cap man started walking and Afeerah followed him at this point of time, nothing matters to her. She has no fear because what is happening with her is worst.

Both of them walking on the empty streets of Nawabgarh, the cap man stopped near the same Banyan tree and then something happened which terrified her from head to toe.

The cap man disappeared from their like he was never their, not before living a sign for Afeerah to dig the ground where he was standing.

Afeerah sat on the muddy ground, started digging it with her bare hands, her hands got bloodied with the repulsion of mud & stones but nothing mattered to her. She wanted to know why she was going through this pain and sufferings.

She stopped digging it, when a velvet cloth came in her grip she took it out and her eyes went bigger. She opened and saw a paper note inside it—

Afeerah Farid beloved daughter of Ghulam Farid and Saman Begüm. Possessed by the Gaud Jinn under the Sihr Al Mahabbah.

Tears are streaming down her eyes. Sometimes you don't have words to explain the pain, you just wants to cry for the sufferings and that's it.

...

Maine waqt badalte dekha hai

Maine rishto ko aitbaar khote dekha hai

Maine duniya ko ik pal mai meherban se zaalim hote dekha hai

Maine ishq ki raho mai mehboob ko aqidat se bathakte dekha hai

Maine zindagi ki talkh Haqeeqato ko qareeb se dekha hai

Maine kya kya nahi dekha hai....

"Salma Khanam."

"What happened Saman Begüm?"

"Khanam."

Saman Begüm was continuously crying and Salma Khanam didn't understand why she was here 3:00 am.

"Arre Saman Begüm kuch kaho bhi roye jaa rahi ho."

"Khanam woh Afeerah bukhar..."

"Aree Begum bukhar hi aaya haina tou itni raat ko..."

"Khanam usse bukhar hai lekin woh khoon ki ultiya bhi kar rahi hai.... Khanam aap Rayyan ko bhejde na woh tou doctor haina."

"Khoon ki ultiya... ya Allah...tum ruko Rayyan ko bhejte hai hum."

Salma khanam rushed towards Rayyan's room and seeing her tensed Zubair khan also followed her.

"Rayyan beta open the door."

"What happened ammi?" Rayyan came out of his room, he was sleepy and seeing the tension on his parents face he got alerted.

"Ammi..."

"Rayyan.... Afeerah..."

"Afeerah?"

"Afeerah ko khoon ki ultiyan ho rahi hai."

"Ammi nahi."

Rayyan ran outside his house ignoring everyone at this moment he just wanted to see Afeerah.

They all were standing in Afeerah's room and she was continuously spiting blood, her clothes were drenched in her own blood. Her body is looking so fragile, her veins and arteries were clearly visible. She was not looking like the Afeerah he had seen ten days ago. Rayyan was crying holding his head, he was regretting for not believing her. Even the science cannot explain what is happening with Afeerah.

They all are crying seeing her State, she's neither dying nor taking breathe. Her situation is just going worst. Salma khanam started reciting some Qur'anic verses and with the passing of time Afeerah's condition got even worse and then with a havoc of wind her room's windows opened.

"STOP RECITING THOSE VERSES. OTHERWISE AFEERAH WILL DIE TONIGHT."

The horrific voice of Gaud jinn startled them all and Salma Khanam stopped her recitation. But Afeerah was still spiting out her own blood.

Salma khanam was about to blow a breathe on Afeerah when she was lifted up in the air by some supernatural force and with a thud she falls down on the ground. Salma khanam lost her senses and Zubair khan he rushed towards her and the same thing happened with him.

Now both the husband wife laying side by side, unconscious.

"I HAVE WARNED YOU ALL NOT TO COME IN MY AND AFEERAH'S WAY. BUT YOU ALL DIDN'T LISTENED TO ME. AND NOW I'M GOING TO KILL YOU ALL."

The same voice echoed in their ears but this time they hard another voice.

"O GAUD JINN I'VE WARNED YOU NOT TO COME NEAR ANY ADAMZAADI AGAIN BUT YOU BETRAYED ME. NOW BE READY TO FACE THE WRATH OF ZUKHRUF AL AMIN."

Rayyan and Saman Begüm didn't understood anything. They didn't know who is this Zukhruf Al-Amin, but they knew one thing for sure that this jinn is their helper.

They didn't knew what was happening between both the jinns but one thing they knew is they're fighting and then all of sudden the shoutings stopped, and teh heard the soft yet sharp voice of Zukhruf Al-Amin.

"I'VE SENT HIM AWAY BUT HE WILL COMEBACK AGAIN. I URGE YOU TO GO AND BRING THE CULPRIT OF AFEERAH WHO PUT THE SPELL OF SIHR AL MAHABBAH ON YOUR DAUGHTER. AND THAT CULPRIT IS LIVING IN THIS MANSION."

And then the doors of windows closed all of a sudden. Rayyan took a breathe of relief when he saw Afeerah breathing. She had stopped spiting her blood. Saman Begüm took care of Afeerah and Rayyan moved to help his unconscious after that he had to know who was the culprit Zukhruf Al-Amin is talking about.

...

Rania who was sleeping peacefully and her daughter was laying beside her. Suddenly she felt a heaviness on her chest and then her eyes opened, her breathe hitched. She blood oozing out from her lower region and then her shouting reached the walls of Khan Mansion.

Rayyan who has put his parents to bed giving them painkillers, hearing the horrific voice of a woman, he rushed out of khan Mansion. He was in the lobby, when he saw Their driver Atatullah carrying his wife who was crying due to the pain and then Rayyan rushed to help them.

Rania was laying on the hospital bed, she was looking at the adjacent wall of the room with void eyes, she had miscarried her baby. For any mother its the most hurtful feeling to loose Their child. Her eyes were hollow and so her soul.

The sins she had committed started playing infront of her eyes like a film.

Rania zehra was also jealous of Afeerah Farid, in childhood Afeerah was the apple of everyone's eyes because of her good grades and then the hatred grew for Afeerah even more when she got married at the mere age of sixteen with a man who is twenty years her senior, who rapes her everyday in the name of wedlock. Rania zehra didn't get the support of her parents but Afeerah Farid got she is studying and loved by everyone. Her jealousy got even more worse. And then one night in the intimates moment, Atatullah her husband whispered Afeerah's name instead of hers....that day she got to know her husband likes Afeerah because she's more beautiful...it doesn't matter what kind of man she was married too, a wife wouldn't like to share her husband. And then Rania zehra did what she shouldn't have. She knew that Afeerah secretly meets Rayyan at the abandoned bridge of Nawabgarh and then the plan hit her mind. She contacted a man who does magic and she put an spell on Afeerah so that she never got married and eventually end up being a mad woman.

But to her loss, she got to know that Afeerah had already gotten married to Rayyan in secret. And now the spell couldn't get complete, so she turned the spell to sihr al Mahabbah.

Not for even a moment she feared that God is watching her and she'll face the consequences.

And now she lost her child, just because of her own wrongdoings. She put Afeerah's mother through unbearable pain seeing her child spiting her own blood and God took her child in the same way.

What a play of fate!

You reap what you sow.

"Atatullah."

"Bol heeriye."

"Rayyan sahab ko bhejo idhr."

"Lekin kyun?"

"Tum usko bhejo nahi tou hum khud chala jaayega bahar."

"Hum bhejta hai usse idhr tum araam karo heeriye."

Rayyan was perplexed by the demand of Rania seeing him and then when Rania told him the truth he got so angry, he was literally about to slap her. When Atatullah intervened and controlled him, he was ashamed of his wife's wrongdoing but he was also ashamed of himself for being such a horrible person to Rania.

...

After Rania's confession and the repulsion of the spell which resulted into the miscarriage of Rania, Afeerah finally got free from the clutches of Gaud Jinn. She was still recovering from what had happened in the past few years and the recovery will take a long time.
