[Suffiyan a.k.a Gulrez Gabol P.O.V.]

[Present Day]

The splash of light hit the shutters of my eyes and threw the sleep out of it.

I could see the clouds raising and the sky filling up to bring out a shower to the dry land down there.

The land I was known to!

The land I was; I am from!

Gabol has send me to my homeland; Pakistan!

I was here to join the scot of fresh armed batch. As to gain the trust and then hit in the back.

Gabol's plan was to launch me against my country.

I was accompanied by Ali. Gabol knew we made a good team so he launched both of us against our people.

"One day you'll be taking steps into the same camp where I got training, and I'll be a proud father that day."

Entering the camp, I heard my father's words in my head.

From a century now, my eyes never got wet.

"Name?" The in charge of the camp asked me.

"Gulrez Zaman." Without any hesitation I spit the name I had on my documents.

Fake documents.

Fooling the same way, Ali entered the camp. We started taking training under the camp of armed forces camp Jehlum.

"What are we doing here?" Ali threw the fire woods aside and asked me.

"Now what happened?" I snapped.

"How can you be so relaxed?" He frowned at me.

"So what should I probably doing?" I frowned back.

"Gul...? Seriously? Are you ready to attack our own people? What are you up to; I am decipher to get that." He shook his head in wonder.

"Beside raising up my blood pressure like you I've a lot more to work out upon." I said standing.

"I- want uhh- I want to visit my home." He finally managed to tell the real problem.

"I am working upon. Don't worry." I told him and went out of the camp.

"But what are you doing? Let me know please." Ali ran after me.

"You need to believe in me and stay calm. Trust me, my eyes are also wanting to see- we both will visit- soon!" I cut my excitement in the middle.

[Ahmed Sheikh's P.O.V.]

"Sir may I come in?" I nodded a yes to the peon when he came inside with a parcel.

"What is this for?" I asked from behind my glasses.

"Don't know sir. It came yesterday when you were off to the Headquarters." He told me.

"Okay I'll check this. Thank you." I said eyeing on the parcel.

He marked a salute and went out.
