Prologue Anant Gaur And there stood she in the darkness. With her luggage all packed up by her side, staring at her children sleeping in comfort. Wanting to reach out to them, bid her last goodbyes but afraid to wake them up. Much afraid of the questions she'll have to answer if they do. There stood she fighting herself in the shadows of guilt which now hovered over her. The light in the other bedroom turned up, her husband Aman, still half asleep, walked up to her. She turned around but even her welled up eyes couldn't explain what she was going through. Aman looked at her and got startled on seeing her all packed up and dressed at this hour. As any husband is, he was bound to ask 'what is all this? Where are you going zaana , what's happening?' She stood there in the silence of the night. Unanswered Aman reached her with his hand and placed it over her shoulder, asking again 'what is going on and why are you all dressed up? Zaana ? why are you crying?
