"Aman how irresponsible of you!" Mr Khan scolded.

"Dad! You are the one who told me Dadajaan is coming on 5th June instead of 5th may! How is that my fault."

"You should have asked again."

"Stop now!" Mrs Khan shouted." It's better you both go to the airport now! He must be waiting for you.  He landed some five hours ago. Now run!"

Aman and Mr Khan nodded and did what was told to them.

"Mom I hope Dadajaan is fine." Noor said.

"InshaAllah he is fine. I just hope he did not leave the airport and they find him."

"I don't believe this. I'm always forgetting things now days."

"It's okay dad. It's not your fault that you are growing old." Aman teased and Mr Khan frowned.

"Shut up Aman."

Aman laughed. He is driving and Mr Khan is sitting on the passenger seat. Mr Khan is disappointed. He and mistakes were antonyms. It is as if he never made a mistake even when he was two years old. He was always perfect. But now as he is grow old mistakes and he are Synonyms. He is really sad and disappointed and at present worried for his father.

"Dad he is fine I'm sure." Aman said as if reading his mind.

"I hope. How far is airport?"

"Just five minutes."

"OK."

After five minutes they reached. They searched everywhere but did not find Aman's grandfather. After half an hour of searching they declared that he is not there and left for their house.

Sunday is supposed to be relaxing and lazy. But not for Moms. Sunday for them means working extra time. Cook special food,clean and prepare for Monday.  Same goes for Kehara. She is mother of the house and is required to do all those things for her Father and brother. But there were few things she wanted for the special Sunday lunch. She decided to walk on the way back home. She is walking quietly thinking how beautiful the weather is and how blessed she is. She knows Allah has promised if we are thankful he will give us more. And now as she is confused and emotional now days she cannot stop saying Alhumdulliah (All Praises be to God) and Astagfirullah (Asking Allah for forgiveness). She was just five minutes away from her house when she heard someone talking no Yelling in hindi. She thought maybe that person cannot speak or understand English and  needs some help,So she started walking towards the direction from where the voice was coming. After few seconds she saw a man who might be in his sixties or seventies arguing with a tax driver who is sitting in the car. As she walked towards them she heard the old man say that the driver thinks he is a tourist and he can easily fool him. She was confused and in few seconds she was standing near the taxi and was about to open her mouth to help when the old man noticed her.

"I can speak English." 

Kehara was shocked by the reply but nevertheless nodded. He is very angry and that was evident in his tone. He scared Kehara to such a extent that she wanted to leave but his face showed he is needs help so she stayed. 

"Uncle what is the problem?" She asked still scared of his reply.

"This man thinks I'm a tourist and is fooling me. My son told me the distance between the airport and his house is just thirty minutes and this man is just fooling me. It is more than an hour and he still says the house is far and will take more thirty minutes!"
