Chapter 6: I'm Here for You

Zain and Sameer was laughing along and gossiping.
Zain: I'll tell you something, don't dare to laugh!
Sameer: Ok, boss! Rest assured. (Laughing lightly and after seeing Zain stared at him, lightly coughed and end up laughing)
Zain: I'm afraid of chickens.
Sameer(with eyes in the maximum size and twisted forehead): What!
Sameer burst out of laughter. Zain gave him a cold look. Seeing that Sameer tried to stop laughing but suddenly he couldn’t control himself.
Sameer(with extreme laughter): Our Zain is afraid of Chickens! What on earth is funnier than hearing this! Such a young man like you is afraid of chickens! (Again burst out in extreme laughter)
Zain got embarrassed and synchronised with Sameer's laughter, laughing at himself.
After being back to normal state,
Sameer: Then, say, what on earth have the chickens done to you!
Zain was about to speak, suddenly Sameer's phone rang.
It was a call from his mother.
Zain: Pick it up first!
Sameer blinked at Zain and picked up the call.
Mother: (in a crying tone) Sameer! Son, where are you? Your father's condition is worsening! He is at his last stage, he's about to p-a-s--s---(crying harder)
Sameer's eyes got bigger with the shock. Tears started to fill up his eyes.
Sameer: What are you saying, Mom! (voice turned low)
Mother: Samee-e-e-er! (started to cry harder than before)
Sameer: I'm coming, Mom!
Then he hung up the phone and started to cry silently.
Zain: Hey, what did your mother say? Why are you crying?
Sameer:(Looking at Zain with blurry eyes) Mom said me to go as soon as possible. Dad is in his deathbed, he is about to pass!
Zain: How did this happen?
Sameer: I don't know.
Dad? How did he suddenly become so sick? I'm coming, Dad!
Zain! I'm going.
Zain: I will go with you.
Sameer: No,Zain! I can't bother you in this state of yours. Right now, your body is weak enough!
Zain insisted on going but Sameer refused.
Sameer: I'm really sorry but I have no other way. I'll be get going. Please take care of you yourself on behalf of me.
Zain:(Wiped Sameer's tears) Well,have a safe journey! You need to be strong. Everything will be fine.
Zain hugged Sameer and both of them had the farewell.
Sameer hurriedly called a taxi and left.
Zain walked down the bridge and walked to the intersection of roads.

Driving the car, Ahmed was coming there too.
Suddenly Ahmed saw Zain coming towards the street. Ahmed got shocked at that sight.
Ahmed(to himself): He is here too!
Suddenly their eyes met each others. Ahmed let go of the steering wheel and pinched his other hand to make sure that it was reality.
His car got out of control. When Ahmed was about to handle, it hitted a big tree and a loud sound came out of the clash. Ahmed got hurt so badly at his head and one side of his face. Blood started to ooze out.
Zain rushed to him. The front glass was broken. Zain tried to open the door but it was locked from inside. He started to search for any heavy thing to break the side window glass. He hit the glass with a pipe nearby but before he was going to break it, Ahmed started to move his hand searching for the nuckle and finally unlocked the door with his remaining strength.
Then opening the door, Zain entered his head into the car and hold Ahmed’s arms. Ahmed was almost fainted. Ahmed turned his head to look at Zain. Ahmed's vision was getting blurry and darker. An affectionate face appeared in front of his eyesight. But Ahmed couldn’t focus, before seeing properly, he fainted.
Zain lightly turned Ahmed’s face and started softly shaking.
(Seeing Ahmed) Zain(to himself): He...!
Zain: Hey! Please, try to keep your eyes open, try to hold on. I'm taking you to the hospital.
But Ahmed was out of sense then.
Zain carried Ahmed on his back and hurriedly called a taxi. The taxi driver stopped the car, seeing them in such a state. Driver hurriedly came out and opened the door and helped Zain to get Ahmed down. Zain carefully got Ahmed down on the sit. Then they got into the car. Zain got into the car from the other door to have Ahmed's head in his side. Zain put Ahmed’s head on his lap and hold Ahmed’s right hand. Noticing Ahmed’s blood still coming out, Zain hurriedly searched for a tissue, but he found his handkerchief. Zain wiped the blood drops from Ahmed’s face and hold the handkerchief on Ahmed’s head side to stop the blood from coming out.
Suddenly Ahmed regained his sense a little and began to cough. Zain hold his hand tighter.
(Shouted cryingly) Zain: Please, drive the car faster! His condition is worsening!
Driver looked at Ahmed through the front mirror and lightly increased the speed of the car.
Zain looked at Ahmed’s face with great affection and his eyes started becoming wet.
Zain: Brother, hold on for a few minutes more, we have almost reached the hospital.
Ahmed suddenly hold Zain's hand which was holding Ahmed's another hand, and in the next seconds, he loosened his grip and his hand slipped from his body. Zain got a little shock at that sight. He put Ahmed’s that hand on Ahmed’s chest within a blink of an eye.
Zain: I'll not let anything wrong happen to you. Almighty will save you, trust me!
