It was the third hour of the night when two pistol shots broke the silence of the cemetery in the air. The birds, who were spending the night on the triple tree in the house, flew away after hearing the sound of the shots. The first fire tore through the girl's bulging breast and sank her heart into the mattress on which the girl had slept for the last time tonight, as she had to get up after the trumpet was blown. The second fire also ripped through the middle of the chest and hid in the mattress. The victim's name was Hussina and her age was not more. She was quite young.

Ch. Hassan was the murderer, and he had silver strands in his hair. Before piercing Hussina's chest, Chaudhary's face had the ferocity and slyness of a fox, and after setting fire to that hideous visage, there was an odd complacency. if it was merely speculation, it was believed that the dead woman would awaken from a deep sleep and take the awl, upsetting the universe's system, even if her face remained as innocent as ever after she stopped breathing.

Hussina had graduated from a government university in Bahawalpur three months prior with a four-year degree in physics. She was fully aware that her marriage was imminent because her father would never let her work. Since he was the Chaudhari of the village, he would never permit Hussina to obtain employment. There was a palace that appeared to be the residence of a Mughal emperor, and Chaudhary's self-imposed belief was that if he permitted his daughter to obtain employment, her community and village would disapprove. Hussina was a responsible girl, so she never discussed her work with her father. didn't exchange words.

But employment and marriage are not at all the same thing. Giving up one's job to help one's parents can be done. But who would want to ruin someone's life by making her do something against her will?

Instead, Hussina was to wed Chaudhary Khuram, his cowardly 24-to 25-year-old cousin. The handsome young guy with the enormous mustache testified that not even he was respectable, and he reveled in his father's enormous wealth and his noble activities, which included dog fighting, betting, flying pigeons, and getting drunk every night. Hussina should marry her cousin Khuram, Chaudhry Khuram.

Khuram was a nervous young man who lacked morality and was arrogant about his father's vast wealth.

Ch. Hassan once declared to Hussina, "I want to marry you with Khuram." Hussaina wanted to scream and thrash her head against the door after hearing this because she thought someone had placed the sky on her head. But Hussina was patient; she dropped her head and replied, "I like someone else," after hearing her father's comments. Though Chowdhury's head was down and his eyes were burning from hearing his daughter's remarks, he refrained from strangling his daughter who was seated in front of him out of fear that she might stop explaining.

With a fake fury in his voice, Chowdhury stated, "My religion would have allowed you to marry of your choice, but it is impossible for you to marry outside the family, and that too by your choice." Yes, please listen to what I have to say and include it in your message. I am your religion, and I will follow my desires regardless of religion or other influences. Above all, though, I assure you that your life will be ruined if you do not agree to marry Khuram. I can do anything for my honor, but only if I marry the person of my choosing how your life will be ruined, but you won't die. Why can you do this to your only daughter? How will your honor be affected?

Rising to his feet, Chowdhury slapped Hussina's face. It was clear that her white face had been imprinted with the image of Father's wisdom. Caressing her cheeks and crying as if I will get married, not by my will, maybe even in her imagination, she added, "Look, I am telling you that if you marry by your will, your dead body will leave this house to the cemetery."

She said while caressing her cheeks and sobbing as if I will get married, not by my will, maybe she was not under the illusion that her father would marry her. To tell the truth, the daughter thought that the father's anger was temporary, the father would have to bow down to the only daughter's wish, and the father thought that after being slapped, the daughter liked the idea of ​​marriage with her heart. They were both wrong, neither the father nor the daughter was shocked at the idea of ​​a marriage of choice, and then one day Chaudhary decided that Hussina's sacrifice was obligatory in the name of honor anyway, what happened to Hussina. She will be sacrificed, after all, millions of women have been sacrificed before, and then that night Hussina was killed by her father, neither the trial nor Chaudhary appeared in the court of his conscience, the policemen got their share.
