” Someone had to stay,” Murad says. His eyes are gentle and serious.”
I cant believe Hamir is gone just like that with one shot of the the gun. Phulan must be devastated about this news. I will probably be asked to marry Phulan now. My brother would want me to take very good care of her. I am going to have to use all my strength to not hurt that horrible man Nazir Mohammed. We have made a deal with him that I will keep all our land and Nazir will not disturb the flow of irrigation water. I still can’t believe that my brother is gone. I will miss him very much.
This is Murad
Murad have you heard you are to be wed to Phulan, and I to Rahim-Sahib. It is not fair. He has tried to buy my love but I love only you.
Ok then.
I am totally depressed. But you have to be somewhat happy Murad. You get to marry ME!
I am sorry I hurt your feelings.
“I feel the odd turning in my stomach again” and then I realize something is wrong. I am so sorry for your loss Murad and Phulan.
You didn’t hurt my feelings! NAZIR MOHAMMAD DID!
Oh. Cant wait to get wed with you.
I just realized. We really shouldn’t be talking to each other now.
Congrats guys, but you have stolen my sister, I will miss you Phulan
I wouldn’t really call it stealing.
