'Saif?' Jannat asked

'Your another brother, younger then me and bigger then Aryan and  Ayat.' Elam said and she surprised looked at him. She never knew she  had another brother so then where was he now?

'Since he was ten he had problem with me because Mum and Dad used to  love me more then him. So he used to get jealous. Many time mum and dad  explain to him that they love both of us but he never agree with them. I also tries  very best to be nice with him so he will start liking me but he never does....He always  wanted thing which I had so every gift on birthdays, toys, chocolates  and all kind of other things he want were those which I had. He  always say to me I am lucky, I have everything. He was great in study  way better then me and I used to tell him that he should look at brighter side but he never listen. Then with the time he started hating me from not liking me and  everything change when I turned sixteen.' Elam said and Jannat was  looking at him. Elam got up then walked and stood in front of window  while looking out and she was staring at his back.

'It was sunny day. It was Sunday so we both decided to go out to play  outside with our friend. We got permission from mum and dad while dad  dropped us off to beach where we decided to had day out. After some time  our friends start coming and we start playing. It was all fine till she walked in.' Elam said and stopped

'She?' Jannat asked confused

'Emaan was our neighbour. She was also my classmate but Saif used to have huge  crush on her. He really liked her and once even written love letter to  him but she said no to him. She said she liked me. But I never liked her but I try to make Saif understood that I don't feel anything for her and I will never come  between you two. I even will explain to her that I don't like her and when  she will know I don't like her she might think over him but he got  angry with me. He start hating me.' Elam said and  stopped and Jannat was restlessly looking at him.

'What happen Saif? I swear it was not  my fault?' Elam said while Said glared at him then slapped him across  the face and Elam shocked stared back at him.

'How dare you touch her?' Saif screamed and pushed him.

'I just try to save.' Elam said in his defend

'Why you even came in this world. I hate you. You had everything.' Saif screamed annoyed and pushed him again while  cars were passing from the road.

'Saif, stop misbehaving. I said it was  not my fault.' Elam said while controlling his anger this time whereas Saif moved his fist then hit him across the face. Elam tremble back slightly then looked back at Said while that made Elam angry as well. He got annoyed and angry and pushed Saif  away as well while they started fighting.

He dead. He dead within half an hour. He was gone...he so quickly vanish in the air. Do we die like this...this quick?

'I killed him. I still can't forget that  day.  Saif screaming my name. His body covered in blood. It was reported as a  accident but I can't forget. It.....' Elam said and stopped while Jannat was  shocked sitting  looking at him when she heard his son and she realised he was crying. She  stood up then slowly walked towards him and stood then turned him over . Then she moved and  looked at him while putting hand on his cheek.

'Stop blaming his death to you. It was just  an accident Elam. I know it's hard for you but it was not your fault.  But If you still think you kill him then just forgive yourself. Sometime to move on  in the life to live better and peaceful life we need to forgive her own-selves first. It is also really important.' Jannat said and they  were looking at each other. Then she slowly tip toe to reached at his height and softly kissed on his eye while drinking up his tears. He shocked freeze on his place. Then she moved and kissed  his other eyes and drank  away his tears and he was just shocked standing still. Then she moved away and looked at him.

'Everyone have forgiven you.... now is a time for  you to forgive yourself. You have give eight long years punishment to yourself already. Now please move on now. Now decision is yours.' Jannat said then turned away and quickly walked while  he was standing still.

'Yeah... you are right. I need to forgive my own self  now and....' Elam stopped and sighed

'And  I.....I ...after eight years of  punishment.... I am forgiving myself. Today..I forgive myself..I forgive myself for not saving Saif.' Elam  said while controlling his shaking legs then walked and sat down on bed while felt peace taking over him.

Elam came out from the  restroom and looked at bed but Jannat was not here. Last night she came  really late because she was more then half of night talking with Cameron  and Mrs Sania while sitting in Mrs Sania's room. When she came back  Elam was annoyed but he didn't say anything. And now again she was not  here. Elam sighed then walked out from the room and started walking  down. He reached downstairs and started walking when suddenly he felt  dizzy, he put hand on the wall as a support and stood still. He had been  feeling dizzy from past days but he was not getting what this was  happening to him. Then he felt better and moved away from wall and  walked inside sitting room. He walked and sat down on the sofa and Mr  Ayub looked at him.

'Where is everyone?' Elam asked

'Sania and Jannat have gone on walk with Cameron.' Mr Ayub said and he looked at her

'Don't them two have  something else to do except being with him.' Elam said annoyed and Mr  Ayub laughed while Elam confused looked at him.

'You are jealous Elam.' Mr Ayun asked

'No I am not.' Elam said  quickly and looked away and they sat in silence whereas Mr Ayub was  slightly smiling on him who looked really pissed off.
