THE MAFIA'S DESTINY

CHAPTER-1

All the family members were present in the room. Khadija was living her last few moments on the bed. She called her eldest son to her side, took his hand in hers, and, with a trembling voice, tried to speak slowly.

Waqar told his mother, Amma, don't speak. You are not well.

Khadija said, beat let me speak today, or I will always regret it. I want Shahzaib and Farwa to be married while I am still alive.
Waqar replied seriously, Amma, nothing will happen to you, and we cannot get them married now. They are still very young.

Beta consider it my last wish and fulfill it. Don't refuse; this is my final command, she said, looking at Haider Abbas and giving him the same instruction.

Waqar stood up and told Haider to call the cleric (Maulvi) immediately for the wedding. Haider expressed concern about their young age, but Waqar gave him a stern look, and Haider reluctantly nodded and left.

Waqar asked his wife to bring the children. She shook her head in displeasure and left.

After a while, Shahzaib and Farwa were seated on the sofa near Khadija. The children were glaring at each other as if they would devour one another. Everyone present knew that once they realized what was happening, they would cause a commotion. But for now, they were quietly observing everyone due to their grandmother's condition.

Haider returned with the cleric, who began to officiate the marriage between Shahzaib and Farwa. He first asked Farwa for her consent. Farwa, being innocent and unaware of what a marriage was, immediately said "I accept" remembering her mother's words. Then the cleric asked Shahzaib, and he too repeated his grandmother's words, saying "I accept." Everyone prayed, and after the marriage, a man came into the room and took cleric (maulvi) away.

Khadija, content after witnessing her grandson and granddaughter's marriage, smiled at them and took her last breath. Everyone present had tears in their eyes.

After 15 years later...

Amna woke up, irritated by the alarm, and went straight to Farwa. She turned off the alarm and shook her comforter. Farwa, still half asleep, grumbled, "What now,? Why are you bothering me?"

Yawning, Amna replied, You always do this. You set the alarm to wake up early but never wake up yourself and instead wake me up. So now get up, or I'll pour cold water on you.

Farwa reluctantly said, Alright, I'm up. Amna said, Very good. Now go get ready quickly, or we'll be late for college. Farwa screamed, "What?!"

Both of them hurried to get ready. A little while later, they looked at each other and commented, Amna, you look better than ever today. Farwa said.

Amna smiled and responded, Don't lie. Compared to you, I'm less beautiful. You're so beautiful that if I were a boy, I'd marry you.

Farwa smirked, shrugged, and said, I'm so gorgeous that even girls' hearts melt.Laughing, she went to college with Amna, and both of them sat down in class.

When the teacher entered the class, all the students greeted him with a Good morning, and then he began the lesson. Farwa, whispering softly to Amna next to her, said, Why does he teach so boringly? Java is my favorite subject, but he's ruining it.

Amna laughed and replied, Every teacher seems boring to you.

Farwa laughed and said, You have a point, and started laughing again.

After the class ended, they headed back to their room. Farwa said, In a few days, we'll graduate, but I'm worried about what we'll do after that. I researched some good companies last night and found only two or three where I submitted my resume. Let's hope I get into one of them.
