He fell in love with Zarmina a handsome girl known as classical beauty of the town. They had clandestine meetings with each other at the gudher and their love grew stronger. Once Beltun erupted in her house in the dead of night and on the roof they exchanged gifts a hankie and a ring as traditional proofs of their respective feelings of love. At the time of parting, Beltun jumped and banged into the street where the street dogs fell upon him and tore into pieces the hankie his only souvenir. Beltun joined army service to defend mother land and after completing preliminary training came home on privileged leave to seek Zarminas hand in marriage but her father Ajab Khan rejected the proposal. Beltun deserted army service. Both him and Zarmina rebelled against the family traditions of marriage and eloped to an unknown destination.
