Yes, Ms. Maria?

Today is Mehmil's engagement

Hmm..

I’m leaving now, just wanted to let you know that she also invited you.

What?

She invited me and asked to tell you

Because you are involved in Ifrah’s case.

What did you say?

You said about the culprit that he’s a down-to-earth man, right?

So, you are equally a culprit

Ms. Maria, are you in your senses?

That’s absolutely correct, Mr. Manto, and that’s why I’m telling you while going to the engagement that

you were also invited.

Means?

It means it would be better if you don’t go there.

Okay fine

I won't go

Besides, it’s too late to get ready now.

But I will give her your best wishes

How is she looking?

I haven’t even seen yet.

I told you to take pictures and send them.

Shame on you! There’s hardly any time left now

You can see her there.

But I'll have to look secretly there,

since everyone will be sitting in front.

How will I look in front of her dad?

Hmm..

Just close your eyes

you’ll still see her.

Lets go!

Hey no no SP..

He must meet her.

He must be paying rent or something

girls like her know many people.

Some pay the rent, some pay the bills, and some…

everything was being transferred from his account.

Look at this.

Bank Statement

So he must be giving her money,

he must have kept her. Don’t people keep such arrangements?

They provide a house, a car, a driver, everything.

So what, do they also take someone’s life then?

You know what?

Ever since social media came along,

these kinds of actions have turned into a business.

They come from small towns and villages and, by making such disgusting accusations, they collect compensation for so-called “love affairs.”

No such accusation was made here.

Her father only wants his daughter to be returned to them.

That's it!

Other than that, there is no demand.

So now where are we supposed to get his daughter from?

Listen

Come outside for a moment.

You have your coffee;

I’ll be back in two minutes.

Sure

What happened? Tell me.

I’ll tell you

look at this.

What happened?

He is crying

Why is he crying?

Today is Mehmil's engagement

Mehmil..

Siraj Amritsari's daughter

Yes

So?

He says he’ll die without her.

So, will you die without her?

Just like Ifrah died?

Fool, I can stop you from dying.

But I won’t be able to stop Amritsari from killing you

it’s about his daughter.

For the past 70 years of the war we’ve fought, we have never once mentioned the name of the enemy’s woman.

Do you know, I’ve faced Amritsari’s wife twice

and both times I greeted her by calling her “sister-in-law.”

I lowered my eyes and

didn’t look at her until she had left.

You see…

they are honorable enemies, my dearest.

We’ve already proposed to them once,

After hearing their refusal, I thought if we ask again, who knows how many more might die

In the old tally, two of theirs came to our side; I fear in the new tally,

two of ours might end up on their side.

Are you afraid of Amritsari?

Your father fears no one.

He only scares others

Today, I’m scaring you!

It’s just an engagement, right?

I’ve seen many engagements like this.

They happen…

and they break.

Hi!

Sir Manto didn’t come, right?

No..

No

I did invite him on my way here.

Come

You wanted that too, didn’t you?

Yes

Why?

I don't know why

I just wanted to invite him, but I didn’t want him to come to the engagement

If I had called him earlier, would he have come?

I don't know

No, he wouldn’t have.

Why not?

It’s just a feeling I have.

Who is it?

I..

May I come in?

Come in

It’s 2 a.m.

Actually I took off the watch, so I didn’t notice the time.

Let’s meet for breakfast in the morning.

Why?

I mean, now that I’m here, at least meet me for a little while.

Okay

Alright..

Please come,

meet me…

Please sit down

You should go.

yes go

Come back a little later.

Please sit

When are you going back?

Hey!

What hey?

Will you stop me or let me go?

Who said I’d stop you?

Just like that…

in a new engagement, you feel like your fiancé should stay in front of you for a while.

No?

Not at all!

I know, if I had stopped you..

If I tried to stop you, you would stay.

So?

I didn’t go to university yesterday either.

Did I tell you not to go?

either Dad or Mom will say

I thought if you went to university, I’d just sit and wait for you.

Why?

Is there a problem?

You don’t love me, do you?

You just got engaged thinking,

“Let’s do it, Dad will be happy.”

Not at all

So, have you fallen in love?

Absolutely not!

If you do, you’ll know.

In new love, there are always new problems

Really?

for example?

you won’t understand.

If I skip university again tomorrow, it’ll be more of a problem

than love itself.

Then why did you say? Meet me..

and sit down

Come on, you’re my fiancé

I can’t exactly tell you to leave.

Okay fine

Say something romantic.

Okay, suppose I’m not in love with you yet

what would you say to win me over?

I will say..

I love you!

Oh! No?

Oh man! “I love you”.. that’s what half the guys at university say before running away.

But I’m not running away, am I?

It’s 2:15 a.m., and you’re still awake?

Greetings!

hey wait!

You’re the one who’s saying this and running away.

Good morning!

Is Mr. Manto in his room?

No, he hasn’t come yet.

He hasn’t come till now? No.

Okay

Good morning!

Good morning, Ms. Maria

Have you seen Mr. Manto? No.

Okay, thank you!

Good morning, maam!

Good morning! Where are you going? Whose class is it?

Sir Manto’s.

He hasn’t come today.

Don't say this

Does he take days off?

Not usually.

Please sit down

Ask me

Why did Sir Manto come and then leave last night?

I don't know

I called him in the morning,

but he didn’t answer.

If he had, I would’ve asked him that.

It didn’t feel right that he came to the engagement

It felt bad that he came and then left.

If he was going to leave, then why come at all?

Dad was also asking if Sir Manto came.

I said he probably did.

Aunty said you were shocked when you saw Sir Manto.

I was shocked because I couldn’t believe he actually came.

Any news about Ifrah?

No

And her father?

Where is he?

God knows

You got engaged because of Farhad, right?

No

Because of my aunty.

Aunty was thinking something else.

Okay, I am leaving now

Sure

Good morning, sir!

Good morning!

Sir, did you come to the engagement yesterday?

Yes

Then why did you leave?

Sit

No sir

First, you tell me why you left, then I’ll sit.

I felt…

I was uninvited.

No sir, you were invited and you know that

I know

but..

I got the feeling that…

anyway, I shouldn’t have gone back. I’m sorry.

I gave your gift to your servant. What’s his name?

Rizwan

Yes, Rizwan

Congratulations on your engagement.

I said sorry

Its okay

By the way, it was a big function.

Mr. Siraj probably didn’t even realize I came and left.

He did find out.

My bad!

So you’re just afraid of him?

No no..

I’m not afraid.

Actually you’re my student,

that’s why I told you comfortably

what the reason was.

What would I tell him?

Sir, what happened with Ifrah?

What happened?

She’s been missing for eight days.

The police know about it, right?

Sir, our mansion and Bin Yamin’s house don’t fall under police jurisdiction.

And the police know who’s behind Ifrah’s disappearance.

Who is it?

The same…

your very decent, down-to-earth guy.

Hi!

Hi!

Your engagement was yesterday, right?

Don't you like the guy?

If you don’t like him, then why did you get engaged?

Just drop it, what’s wrong with you?

First, you didn’t even invite us to your engagement,

and now you’re showing attitude.

It was just an engagement, not a wedding.

But we had agreed that we’d attend each other’s engagements.

And what else had we agreed on?

I mean, we hadn’t agreed that if one of our classmates was kidnapped or killed by some thug,

we’d stay silent,

sit in the corners and gossip, and say she didn’t have a good character.

So character doesn’t matter?

It does, of course it does!

But life always matters more than character

So… is she dead?

I think we should protest.

Against Bin Yamin?

Does everyone already know it was Bin Yamin?

You’re saying this because you have a rivalry with them.

What’s wrong with her?

What? What have I done?

They’re the ones who have a rivalry

I’ve raised you for 20 years,

loved you…

and after everything I’ve seen and learned in life,

do you still think I would make the wrong decision for you?

No dad

I didn’t say that.

I said I will not marry Omer Ahmed.

Why?

I don’t like him.

Irfah, he is your cousin

He’s a decent and reasonable man,

and you know him well.

Exactly, Dad.. I know him well.

Means?

I’ve already told the meaning to Mom,

and now I’m telling you as well, that I will never marry him.

What’s wrong with him?

You tell me, Uroosa?

What’s wrong with him?

The fault is in me.

I’ve never felt that I could marry him.

If that’s a fault, then it’s madness!

So you expect me to reject a decent and reasonable proposal and go around searching for someone else for you?

The fact is…

they sent a proposal,

and I said yes.

She likes someone else.

Come on, dear, put on the ring.

Put your hand forward, Ifrah…

Put your hand forward, Ifrah.

Ifrah

Mom.. mom

Mom, come outside quickly!

Mom

Mom, come on, quickly.

What happened?

Mom, come to sister Ifrah’s room.

But what happened? Mom, hurry up.

At least tell me what happened!

Just come quickly.

What happened?

Mom, I looked everywhere, but she’s not here.

How is that possible? Where could she go?

Dad, I’m leaving.

I might go to Lahore,

but I won’t tell you who I’m with.

I will marry him one day,

and I promise I’ll complete my education before the wedding.

Forgive me if you can.

Ifrah

Ifrah..

Today, you have died for us.

Hey!

What are you doing?

wait..

Are you guys chilling?

Come to the kitchen, I’ll be there in a bit.

yes.. Ok

Have they left?

Yes

They’ve bought a house in Lahore,

so they’ll come whenever they want.

Wait

Why you are not happy?

Since yesterday, you’ve been asking when they’ll leave. Have they gone? Why?

Say it clearly

Oh no mom..

I feel very shy.

He was asking if he could take you out for the dinner every now and then.

I said yes, you should take her. He got happy when he heard that.

Did Dad also get happy?

I’ll talk to him.

Ok

If Dad says so, then I’ll go.

wait a minute

You weren’t shy about this?

I am feeling shy

but I didn’t let you notice.

Should I go now?

Let me go

If I get too shy, I won’t even agree to what Dad says.

Atiya, serve the lunch, I’m very hungry.

Manto sir!

I was passing by, so I thought

I’d meet Mr. Manto

and have some tea.

No no, just me

These people will stay outside.

Will you serve me?

Hmm..

Yes

Please come

Come here, sit

Let me make tea

Sure

Yes, Ms. Maria?

Who has come to your house?

A friend.

Which friend of yours comes to you with so much security?

The same decent, down-to-earth one.

Do you make tea yourself?

I even cook food myself.

Don’t you have any servants?

Nobody is a servant;

we just think they are.

He’s just doing his duty.

So how is he a servant then?

I want to be happy about this engagement, aunty.

Then be happy

he’s such a good guy,

he loves you like crazy.

True that

Then, what's the problem?

I don’t love him like crazy.

I even tried,

prayed that I would fall in love with him,

but it’s not happening, aunty.

You’ll cause some trouble!

No aunty..

Never

Oh, here’s his call.

It’s not him.

Good evening, Ms. Maria!

No, its not a good evening

Farhad has arrived at Mr. Manto’s house with 10–12 guards.

What!

Is everything alright?

Everything seems fine.

But why?

Why is he there?

Then go, Ms. Maria, and ask what’s going on there.

I just spoke to him.

When I asked who it was, he said the same decent, down-to-earth one.
