Wake up Asif !!
Asif looked up to see himself in his Abbu's arms. It has been a long while since he felt this warmth. "What happened to you, Asif-beta ? You were the most positive lad I ever knew. You are far better than any of your peer group. You are even better than me." Asif was still silent, his eyes were tired, failing to make proper eye-contact.
Slowly, Asif told, "I have lost everything that I earned that I worked for over the years. I lost everything I wanted. Is there no value of my good intentions ? Is there no value of hard work and sincerity. Is God so cruel ?" Abbu said, "No beta, It is just a bigger test that you are facing. Human life is full of such tests, and as long as you are not compromising on your values and integrity, you are doing pretty well. Remember one thing, you live for a purpose, as long as that is not achieved, don't give up".
Asif woke up from his sleep with a start, looked around to see no one, but he could still feel the warmth on his chest.
