"Why is this girl never with us ? Call Sarah from her room ," Asad , Sarah's father howled madly. Sarah's younger sister Maryam rushed to her room and slammed open the door . Sarah in her pajamas, tight bun and glasses , frowned at her with a raised eyebrow, and said crisply, " Is this the way to enter a room ? I am trying to study here , stop making so much noise!" "Oh hello bookworm, even I didn't want to come here , daddy is calling you, answer him " she said rudely and slammed the door again with a grin.
Sarah realized that Asad was so upset, " My girl, why are you always alone in your room ? complete your homework and learning in the afternoon before I get back from work ? " he cried ." daddy there are a lot of upcoming tests this week and besides I take a nap in the afternoon as I am extremely tired when I come back from school , 11th grade is tough ." She said with an innocent face. "fine go get a cup of tea for me and then u can continue studying." he replied gloomily.
Sarah, a fun loving and talkative girl at school was a complete opposite at home. She loved staying in her own room , painting, reading books and studying .
Her little brother Zain always pissed her off and is a pain in the ass. He would do a misdeed or something stupid then he would get yelled by his dad , Asad was loud enough to wake the dead . Maryam and Zainab her younger sisters always made so much noise while playing and they fought most of the time . All this made Sarah want to stay in her room. This didn't mean she didn't love them or spending time with her family , but yes she wasn't close to them.
She is from a brown family, with strict rules . She had permission to go out twice a year with her friends to a mall or something and that too under her parents supervision , she was not allowed to have a mobile phone so that she could focus on her studies better. She loved going to school because of this only that was the only place she could be her real self and enjoy , that was the only escape from her house. She just found the environment of her house very toxic , she wasn't permitted to even talk to her friends for long on the call , and she was 17 years old. She could only use her mother's phone for her social media for an hour a day and nothing more.
