We've been wondering about Sahir's secret past. In a previous post I'd wondered if we're headed towards a Jane Eyre storyline with Sahir married, with a wife who's not really a wife (like Mrs Rochester) tucked away. Today, after the CVs flung some hot clues our way, clues so hot that they lit up the night sky my suspicion was confirmed. 😃 And so here's some free verse to celebrate.
After McPhee's loud and long soliloquy, and shake-sway, stealthy search for the boast that could burn love to toast came the race to save the truth from the blaze.
And amidst the flames, ended yet another game, between mummy and McPhee, as they forced us to see evidence of Sahir's folly, or another's foul-play, but of fate most certainly!
Again and again, a glow caught our gaze, not the blaze but glaze of the key to the maze that we'd tried to escape but wanly let slide as we stayed stuck inside.
Lo and behold, bright in the light, the bowl of her hands bedazzled our eyes with the glow of her bridal Mehendi.
Sahir's Wife Number One! Not a doubt but a cert!! Oh what hurt lies in wait for poor Arzoo when she finds out too late.
But where is the wife? Buried or alive? Or insane and in chains? Perhaps knocked out all these years, leaving Sahir in tears and his mum fearing for his life.
And the man wrapped in gloom, in the light of the moon, with his heart all aswoon by his side, drew the leaf from her eyes and then let himself sigh for the peace and surcease within reach.
But the clouds darted in and the dream began to thin as darkness rose again, so that burning up with pain, he fought against the chains, till the blood came aflooding from him.
So when he felt her gentle touch, of course it was too much, and he turned, all achurned and dragged her close all aroused, and then warned her to stay far away.
But the clues are all there, whilst she stays unaware, of the cocktail abrew poor Arzoo's being wooed by the mum to become Jane Eyre.
