As Anagha arrived and walked towards the crowd, there was a wave of dead silence for a second or two and then they carried on with their murmuring and looked up to her with an expression on their faces which were asking why she was late to the meeting.
Then as she was walking towards Haqikah, she overheard some people in the crowd saying, "Is she the mother of that crazy girl? She's so different from her daughter, she's so unlucky for a person who is so kind to us..."
She stood there for a second but did not care to turn around and look at who were speaking as if she already knew who they were and began walking towards Haqikah. Anagha walked upto Haqikah and paid her respects to her and occupied the place assigned to her. Then Haqikah stood up and hushed the mumbling crowd who were constantly gossiping about Albel, by signaling them by waving her arms downwards.
Once the crowd settled down, she started speaking in her bold yet soft voice; "I would like to thank each and everyone in the crowd for being a part of this meeting and lending your precious time which could've been spent elsewhere, and I apologise for being late and I also apologise on behalf of Anagha who has arrived late." as she was finishing her sentence Anagha stood and joined her hands and bowed.
Haqikah then asked the crowd, "I hope you know why all of us are gathered over here..." to this the crowd said "Yes!" in unison. "I hope I will be able to give a satisfactory verdict by the end of this meeting after listening to both parties. Let's begin." said Haqikah. Then a boy from the first row stood up and began speaking; "I saw her eating that chicken! She is a lunatic! I couldn't sleep ever since I've seen it...it's still fresh in my eyes!" with a trembling voice and his lips were quivering and his back shuddered as chills went down his spine.
