The door opened and some slow footsteps can be heard. The person slowly walked towards the the balcony.

Pata nahin meri zindagi kitni hai.

The person sighed and looked up towards the sky hoping to see it filled with stars and moon but instead found black clouds lacing the sky.

Andhera hai. Bilkul meri zindagi ki tarah.

The person said, his voice hollow and filled with loneliness.

Shehzade Kabir.

He heard a familiar voice and felt someone keeping a hand on his shoulder from behind.

Ahmad aap?

Kabir turned around and looked at him.

Ji hum. Kya soch rahe thy aap?

Ahmad asked affectionately

Kuch nahin. Bas soch rahe thy ke humein maut kis tarah aayegi.

Kabir whispered. A concerned look washed over Ahmad,s face but he quickly masked it before Kabir could see.

Khuda na kare shehzade. Aisa kuch nahin hoga. Aap sultan banenge hukumat karenge aap iss saltanat per.

Ahmad said softly. Kabir gave a small hopeful smile at his words.

Around midnight!!!

The door of Kabir,s chamber slowly opened and someone entered taking slow steps. The person moved towards the bed where Kabir was sleeping. Kabir opened his one eye and took out the dagger which he had hid under his pillow and pointed it at at the person.

The person is revealed to be Ahmed.

Kyun aaye ho? Baba ne meri maut ka bhi farman de diya na?

Kabir asked pointing the dagger at him. He took a short breath. Sweat dripped down his forehead as he pulled his dagger back ready to accept his fate.

Aapko Hina sultan ne bulaya hai.

Ahmad informed. Kabir nodded his head in positive and together, they both walked towards the chamber with Ahmed walking ahead and Kabir following him.

They both entered in sultan Murad,s chamber. Kabir walked towards the balcony.

Dadi jaan.

Kabir called out reaching near her. The old woman turned hearing her grandson. Her eyes were filled with tears as she smiled at him.

Aao humare sher pote.

Hina said with a small smile.

Kabir stood in front of her and she cupped his face.

Tumhare abbu ab iss duniya mein nahin rahe. Woh khaliq e haqiqi se ja mile hain.

Hina informed. She blinked her eyes and a tear rolled up on her cheek which she wiped.

Kabir,s heart sank. He slowly walked inside the chamber, his breathes turned heavy. He stood and watched the bed which was covered with transparent black curtains where his father layed lifeless.

He inhaled sharply and turned to walk to the balcony.

Mere bache. Raat ja rahi hai. Aur subha ho rahi hai.

Hina said tenderly placing a hand on his cheek.

Yeh naya suraj ab tumhara hai mere sher pote.

Hina said looking at the raising sun.

Yeh takht o taaj, yeh riyasat tumhari hui aaj se.

Hina said tenderly with a small smile shifting her attention back to Kabir, and placed a hand on his shoulder.

Kabir,s heart skipped a beat hearing her.

He inhaled forcibly and looked at the raising sun.

It was a new day, new beginning. Now he was the Sultan. He looked up.

Maine kabhi socha bhi nahin tha ke main sultan ban jaunga.

Kabir thought as the reality sank in.

He walked back to his chamber.

Kabir stood in front of Hina. She made him wear his crown.

Waqt badal chuka hai. Aur waqt ke sath tumhara mukaam bhi. Yeh saltanat ab tumhari saltanat hai. Yeh ALLAH ka ek ehsaan bhi hai aur imtahan bhi. So dua hai ke tum ehsaan mand rehte huye kamiyab bhi ho. ALLAH tumhe kamiyab kare. ALLAH tumhe woh hosla ata kare, Raste mein aane wali har diwar tumhare paun ki thoker ho. Mera rabb tumhe woh danishmandi aur binayi ata kare ke tumhara har faisla tareekh ban jaye. ALLAH tumhe har buri nazar, aur har bure iraade ke sher se mehfooz rakhe.

Hina blessed him wholeheartedly. He kissed the back of her palm out of affection and respect.

He let out a small smile and walked out of the chamber. His heart was beating loudly against his chest as he walked passageway after passageway with Ahmed and 4 soldiers walking behind him. Hina,s words continued ringing in his ears

Sana!!!! Kab se bula rahi hoon. Aa jao beta. Baad mein padh lena noval

Said Salma, Sana,s mother calling her out for her the 19th time.

Ji ammi main aayi.

A girl having beautiful black doe shaped eyes said finally closing the noval (history book) she got down from the bed. Her eyes brimmed with excitement as she impatiently waited to read further.

She got down from the bed and hurried towards the washroom. She opened the tap and washed her hands. She washed her face and wiped it with a towal and came out. She hurried downstairs to her mother.

Assalamualaikum Ammi. Assalamualaikum Abu.

Sana greeted her parents cheerfully sitting on her chair.

Are wah aloo methi.

Sana exclaimed excitedly as she surved herself some.

Her parent,s smiled at her excitement.

Bachi hai tu bilkul.

Salma said smacking the back of her head lightly.

Ab isme meri kya galti aap log hi toh kehte ho ke bache chahe kitne bhi bade ho jayein maa baap ke liye bache hi rehte hain.

Sana said as a matter of fact.

Woh toh sahi hai.

Her father Adnan said softly agreeing with her. He ruffled her hair and she grinned.

Aap hi samjhaye isse pata nahin pura din kon sa noval padti rehti hai.

Salma chided.

Sana looked at her mother gasping at her. She stood up and crossed her arms across her chest.

Kon si noval hai woh beta?

Adnan asked softly.

She gave a look to her parents and hurriedly rushed upstairs towards her room. She took her book from the bed and rushed downstairs towards her parents.

Yeh rahi book jo main padh rahi thi.

Sana said giving the history book.

It's not a noval mom it's a history book.

Sana said looking at her Salma confidently. Salma bit the inside of her cheek and started eating her food silently. And Sana and Adnan also started eating.

Achi baat hai.

Adnan said softly making sana smile.

The door bell rang.

Wait. Main jati hoon. Maine sabke liye ice cream mangwai thi.

Sana said trying to lighten the mood seeing that Salma was about to get up. She rushed to open the door.

Collecting the ice creams, she gave the money and closed the door.

She walked towards the kitchen and arranged the ice creams in a trey.

Ice creams are here.

Sana chirped placing the tray on the table.

She took out the ice creams from the package.

Mumma aapki strawberry chunks wali ice cream, dad yeh rahi aapki Normal strawberry.

Sana said handing the ice creams to them. She sat on the sofa and enjoyed her double chocolate one.

Sana beta ek bite de do na.

Sana smiled hearing Adnan,s request and offered a bite to him.

Sana I think main bhi teri maa hoon na...

Salma crossed her arms across her chest cutely complaining.

Sana smiled at Salma,s cute possessive side and gave a bite to her. She one by one placed a kiss on their cheeks and said lovingly.

I love you both.

Saying this, she sat on the sofa and they enjoyed their ice creams. Once done, she stood up and threw the ice cream cups in the dustbin and walked upstairs towards her bedroom taking the history book with her.
