She looked at it and didn't reply. A teardrop was clearly visible at the corner of her eye.

The next day, Sumera wrote on the mashiq that her father had fixed the marriage date.
I wept as soon as i read those lines. I couldn't write anything. I started to cry loudly.
I wrote back to her iin a miserable condition stating that i was helpless. She cried as she read the words and threw the slate back.
