Sara's POV
I was praying zohr when omar came and hugged my neck.
" akka food" His little words bring joy and happiness in my world. I kissed his forehead and carried him to the dinning room. I prepared his cereal. I fed him while singing different rhymes to him. He loves it. When he finished eating mom came and told me someone came to deliver a letter to me. And he is saying that the letter should be given to Sara only.
I was confused that what's so important?
I went to the door and saw four men standing at the door. One was a delivery boy and the other three were neatly dressed in plain clothes but their posture shows that they are not ordinary people.
" Yes you are looking for me."
" mam are you Mrs maaz Siddiqui?" Said the delivery boy.
" no I am Sara."
" oh wait." One man went to a corner and made a call. He came back and whispered something in the delivery boy's ear. He quickly put on a fake smile and said
" mam this letter is for you kindly sign on the receiving slip." He quickly handed the letter in my hand. I glanced at ai and questioned
" this is a court notice so may I know the details?."
" Mr. Maaz Siddiqui send it to you. The case is about the reconciliation and restoration of conjugal rights." One man said in a serious tone.
" did he personally came to register this case or it's only handled by his lawyer?" I was not ready to accept any nonsense from him.

" He is in the city mam." The man said looking at me as if he want to record my expressions.
I was astonished to hear it but I remain composed.
I was wondering that what is wrong with this man. That time when I was requesting him to come he didn't and now when I finally decided to move on he came. This is not a coincidence, is it?

I came in and opened the letter. The more I read it the more I got angry. I never imagined he can write something like this. My mom came and asked me
" Sara what's written in the letter?"
" mom he is a liar. He wrote that his wife is unwilling to come back to him that's why he wanted the law to support him. He also said that he is a responsible man and he want his family to stay with him. He is pathetic."
I was so angry that my voice was breaking. I didn't even realise that I am shouting.
" akkka" omar's trembling voice reach my ears and my anger subsided.
" relax Sara he can't do anything. You are save beta. Go and call aunty amina and inform her." Mom tried to calm down my anger. She patted my back and left.
I carried omar, stroked his back and went to my room to put him to sleep. After that I called aunty amina, explained about the letter and the way it was delivered.
She said that I should take it to her office tomorrow. It is nothing important.
Whole day I was worried about that freaking letter. I called Abu as he was out of city for some work. He also comforted me. He said that this might be a good sign and Allah want to help me.
Everyone tried to comfort me but I don't know why I was feeling uncomfortable? May be because I knew this is not gonna be good if he come in person he will definitely put an end to this matter.

At night, I was feeling exhausted. I took bath and performed isha I prayed to Allah to bless me. Give me strength to stay on my decision. I went to bed after putting omar to sleep, I was scrolling on my phone as I was not sleepy at all.

RING RING

Suddenly my phone started ringing and it's a private number. My mind was not responding for few seconds. Then I thought that it's ok to talk let's see what is new this time.
" hello" I spoke in a firm voice.
" Asalamualikum Sara baby it's me! Maaz .don't you recognise me?" He said in a cheerful tone.
" why did you call me?" I said gritting my teeth.
" baby are you not happy to hear me. Don't you miss me?" He was still talking like nothing happened between us. I was irritated at his attitude and lost my cool.
" Maaz you are a liar and a cheat. I don't want to talk to you and don't talk to me like this. Don't you know I already signed those divorce papers? Now there is no relationship between us." I exploded.
" baby Sara you are wrong we are still a couple because I will never sign those papers." His voice turned cold.

" why are you doing this to me? There is nothing between us. Everything is finished Maaz and you ruined it."
" Sara trust me I will turn things around. I will make it right please come back."
" come back! for what... to get insulted and get broken again. I had enough of this drama Maaz. I can't live with a man who didn't accept his mistake and say sorry at least."
" Sara don't say that I came twice to your house to take you home and I tried to say sorry but you didn't listen to me."
" Ya right! now I remember... didn't you come to tell me about my faults and what blunders I did!" I replied sarcastically.
" Sara I am sorry I didn't mean to hurt you. Please I am requesting you. At least for the sake of our child. Don't you want to give him a complete happy family!" He was pleading me. So unlike him.
" so it's all about the kid. He is your son if you want, come and meet him. I won't stop you but I will never come back."
" I know you are angry darling. Don't worry this time I won't leave without you."
I hung up the call. As all my energy was drained after his call, I fall on my knees and started sobbing. I am angry not with Maaz but with myself. Why everytime he gives me hope and I started to believe him? I am such an emotional fool, may be the most stupid person in the world or may be I am still in love with him. No,I hate him just because he is omar's father I will never say it aloud.
Now all night I just sit on the prayer mat and begged Allah to have mercy on me. I don't have any patience to bear this pain. My mind couldn't think of anything. I cried till dawn. I don't know my future and I don't want to imagine it without him.
