This is a bizarre thing that we had never seen in our life. A person crossing the middle-age is working for his family. This is a story of a man who doesn't care about his life and works twenty-four hours for his family and salary. Suresh is a middle-aged man whose liability was to maintain the direction of cars at parking slots in Rave Moti mall. He was having a son who was not entered in IIT because of his bad percentage in his ingress exam. To move their family, he puts his son in his own job.

One month passed, since his son was in the job. One day he returned home in anger. He was crying in loud noise, "What type of job is this? None of the people will do this job. I don't like this. It is better to open my own shop". "How dare you speak about this job using your bad words", said his father. That night, his son got a lot of praise from his father. The next day, Suresh found his son standing on the terrace. He goes near him. "Sorry son for what I had been last night", said Suresh. "That's fine dad that was my fault to abuse your job", said his son. Then Suresh calls him to sit on the bench for a while with him. "I tell you a story about a person who had doesn't care about his age and works all day", said his father.

Let's start this story. Muradin Siddique is the main person of this story. This man had seen his family in criticism. When Suresh was a newcomer to this work, he doesn't know very well to Muradin. But when he saw that Muradin is getting a lot of praise from his boss. He asked from one of his working officers so he told him that his son and his son's wife were living happily with them.

There was no such big family matter between them. But the problem is his family was living in Kuwait. It was a bad time for them because they were in the period of Iran's invasion. During shooting, his family died. But he was saved. He wanted to die as he can't live without his family but the citizens always tried to stop him. Whereas, his own wife died cause of brain cancer. This time Muradin was all alone and this job prevents him from committing suicide. Listening to this, Suresh felt that he should learn from him.

Muradin was working at least one year and his job was decreasing his tension and stress. Whenever all the customers get out of the mall. All parking officers stand at the parking area and crack useless jokes just to lighten Muradin's stress.

His work was so perfect that the boss gives 99 times more of his original salary. And this salary is always allowed to Muradin. Whereas, Suresh had tried his best and by this he got just 10 times more of his original salary. Sometimes Muradin shows his kindness to customers by not taking the money and prays for their long life. Because he doesn't want the same catastrophe happened to other families. Everything was happening great. One night it was a usual work. Muradin was signing off his duty but until then one car straight came near to him. And when Muradin asks for parking money, before speaking to him. The person straight away gives the exact money to Muradin. And enters into the parking area. After few seconds, all parking officers came out of the mall when they signed off their duty. Muradin confused and ran towards them.

"Why are you all here? A customer is parking his car, you should stop him. It's midnight."

"Muradin, we are happy to see you working hard but now don't try to make tears appear in our eyes. You had worked hard and a hard person must take a nap. A big nap!"

Muradin was confused by this. He had seen the customer very well, but how could they say otherwise? After all officers had left, he went to the parking area. He was shocked to find that the car was nowhere parked. He ran towards the elevator officer who stands in the elevator and helps the customer to reach on that floor. He told him that there is no customer left here. All customers are gone till 10:00pm. There is no customer left. Next morning, when Muradin woke up and saw many staff people standing around something. Muradin pushed everyone aside to see what it was and was shocked to find the dead body of one of its working officers. Muradin couldn't control himself, as his best friend Ashli Chaturvedi was a person to tell the details of a product to customer as well as the discount or an offer. Muradin went to the command officer and told him about the late customer that came during midnight. Unfortunately, the command officer thought the same thing that all officers thought at midnight. Suresh was standing beside him and listened to Muradin's problem.
