“And they sat before each other, all their wrongs between them, and Faraz wondered if this might be something akin to what love was, in that whatever was said, no one left the room.”
Aamina Ahmad, The Return of Faraz Ali

“There is no end to what God will take from you, Rozina thought, as the people of the Mohalla waited for Mina to give up, to submit to the vastness of her loss—so that they might return to whatever it was they had been doing before.”
Aamina Ahmad, The Return of Faraz Ali
