"Star ..." he said in a low voice without looking at Arafa. Arafa could hardly hear and remained silent for a while. Balaj's tone was helpless and there was love for Star.
"I want Star. I can't live without her anymore. Please don't misunderstand me. And don't reject me. I have said this to you with so difficulty," he pleaded.
"Do you love her?" She asked.
"Yes, so much." Balaj nodded. Arafa was convinced of his love. She still remembers what happened to Balaj when Star got married. At that time she did not understand the reason but now she understood.
"Why didn't you tell me before?" Balaj looked at her in surprise as he spoke. Wasn't she angry? He thought.
"I didn't have the courage," he said shyly.
"What do you want now?" Arafa hid her smile.
"I want to marry Star but I know she will never agree. Please help me." He said and Arafa smiled. Now she was satisfied her daughter's future was safe.
