Chapter 3 - Hazrat Pir Shah Gaazi Tomb

Today, to see the land, the relationship of the zamindar with the nearby village comes. Those people belonged to a well-known family of their village. The officer is very happy. He stops Bhumi from going to college. So today Bhumi did not go to pick up Nargis for college. Today Nargis leaves the house alone. Nargis changes her course on seeing Kuldeep and his friends standing at a nearby crossroads. But after walking for a while, he realizes that someone is following him. She quickly heads towards college. After a while when she looks back, she can't see anyone. She thinks that maybe it is her passion. Somehow she reaches the college. Here Amar happily prepares for college. He thinks that today he will return his diary to Nargis and will also talk to her. He reaches college early in the morning but he does not like college. He waits for the holiday to happen. Eventually, as the holiday bell rings, he runs to the college gate and stands there. Amar waits for Nargis to leave for college. As soon as college leaves all the girls come out one by one. After waiting for a while, he sees Nargis. He recognizes Nargis from the clip on her hijab.

Nargis wore a black mask and hid her face with a hijab. Nargis's entire body was covered. Except what was visible in his eyes. As soon as Amar sees Nargis, his heart starts beating fast. He dares to go in front of Nargis and tries to talk to her. But Nargis ignores him and moves on. Then he tries to stop her again but Nargis does not look back. Eventually Amar lets Nargis call him by her name. Nargis gets shocked hearing this. She turns and rushes towards Amar and looks at him angrily. Nargis thinks that it is some village chhichhora who has found out its name from somewhere and is now following her. Before Amar says something, she tells Amar a lie and leaves from there. But I don't know why Nargis's scolding was also sweet like honey to Amar. Amar just keeps listening to Nargis's scolding. Nargis leaves from there. What Amar was thinking turns out to be the exact opposite. Amar's image gets spoiled in the eyes of Nargis. Amar comes home and gets lost in Nargis's thoughts. Amar has a close friend named Shahid. Amar tells Shahid all about Nargis and asks him to find out information about Nargis. He entrusts Shahid with the task of finding out all the details about Nargis's home address, family and friends. Shahid comes to Amar's house during the night. Amar is eating food. Shahid loudly calls out to Amar. Hearing Shahid's voice, Amar leaves the food and Shahid tells him that Nargis has a very close friend named Bhumi. Bhumi knows a lot about Nargis. Nargis has recently come to live in Dabban village. Prior to this she lived in the nearby village of Pahalgam. Amar gets very happy after getting just this information and congratulates Shahid for this work.

Shahid tells Amar that he has come to know two more things. But he will tell her when Amar promises to feed her 'Shuftan'. 'Shuftan' is a famous Kashmiri pudding made from dry fruits and sugar syrup. Amar smiles and promises Shahid that he will feed him Shuftan. Shahid tells Amar that Nargis is fond of Mausiki and secondly that Nargis visits the nearby Dargah of Hazrat Peer Shah Ghazir every Jumeirat. Just what was there, Amar's happiness knew no bounds. Amar used to play 'Rubaab' very well. There was one thing that looked like a Rubab sitar. Amar was already in love with music but now he had grown even more. Amar remembers that tomorrow is Jumeirat and this is the right time to return her diary to Nargis and talk to her. He takes out his robe and sits down to play it. The next day, Amar reaches Hazrat Peer Shah Ghazi's tomb only in the afternoon. He waits for Nargis all day but Nargis does not come. When dusk approaches, he sees Nargis coming from afar. Nargis performs tawaf(Prayer) for a while at the tomb of Hazrat Peer Shah Ghazi and sits down watching some people singing qawwali near the dargah(Tomb). Nargis used to find comfort here, she used to come here every Jumeirat(Thursday). But whenever she was sad or she remembered her mother, she still used to come to this place. Amar keeps looking at Nargis. A smile comes on Amar's face. After some time, suddenly Nargis's eyes fall on Amar. Nargis realizes that this is the same person she collided with and has been following her for a few days. Nargis looks at her angrily and leaves from there. Even today Amar is unable to return his diary to Nargis. Amar returns home disappointed. He feels that in this way he will never be able to return Nargis's diary. He tells this to Shahid. Shahid advises him to somehow convey this message to Bhumi as to why he wants to meet Nargis. Amar agrees to Shahid's words and asks Shahid to do this work. At first Shahid refuses but agrees upon Amar's persuasion. Shahid tells Bhumi that Nargis's diary is with Amar and Amar will wait for Nargis tomorrow afternoon at the same dargah. When Bhumi conveys this news to Nargis, Nargis feels very bad and realizes her mistake. She feels that she was misunderstanding Amar. But he does not like to go to meet a stranger like this. Nargis is in a dilemma. She thinks a lot whether she should go or not. Eventually Nargis decides to meet Amar. She asks Bhumi to convey this message to Amar. Nargis remains restless throughout the night. Amar is also restless here. He wonders whether Nargis will come to meet or not and what will he talk to her when he meets Nargis? Thinking just this, he walks in the courtyard in front of his house. After sometime suddenly Shahid comes and tells Amar that Nargis is ready to meet. Just hearing this, Amar's happiness knew no bounds. He hugs Shahid and jumps in joy. He throws away all his clothes. He doesn't know what to wear tomorrow. He puts on different clothes. He was going to meet Nargis for the first time. Amar's thought was justified.

The next day Nargis goes to college but her mind is elsewhere. She asks her friend Bhumi to accompany her to the mazar. But Bhumi tells him that the landlord's relationship that came the previous day has liked her and she is going to come home again today, so she cannot go along. Forcedly Nargis decides to go alone. She goes home after leaving college and leaves for the tomb after giving food to Sarfaraz. Sarfaraz asks Nargis the reason for going to the tomb again, Nargis tells him that she is restless. If I sit in the open air for a while in the garden behind the tomb, I will be fine. The dargah of Hazrat Pir Shah Ghazi was about two and a half kilometers from Dabban village. Nargis leaves on foot. After walking for some time, he sees Kuldeep and his friends on the way. She tries to change the path but Kuldeep stops her. Nargis gets shocked. Kuldeep stares at Nargis with his dirty eyes and talks about getting her. His friends start laughing seeing Nargis in shock. Kuldeep tries to touch Nargis. Nargis tells him to go out of his way. But Kuldeep does not agree and Kuldeep holds Nargis's hand. Nargis gets very angry and slaps Kuldeep. He threatens Nargis that one day he will break Nargis's pride. He tells Nargis that he will not allow him and his father to stay in this village for long. Nargis gets scared. Kuldeep gets out of her way and Nargis hurriedly moves towards the mazaar( Holy Tomb).
