Story from 2049

It’s a sunny hot evening, Sher Mohmmad who was known as ‘’Shero’’ has been re-updated to the Sher Mohmmad in last 2 decades, sitting on moving chair in his old house at  the town,
Suddenly there is knock on the door, his younger son with his 9 year old daughter entered in the house…
She is the only granddaughter he used to see, others only appears on Eid or any event of sadness or extreme happiness,
The kid came and sits beside his grandfather. For whom she has special love.
As she started talking, her dad stopped her.
‘’Kid, I told you not to talk in English with Grandfather ’’
Sorry Dad I forgot, the kid said politely…
She took a book out of her bag she had with, She put a finger over a picture after turning   few pages and asked her grandfather in Urdu,
 
(Translation)
Dada (Grandfather) you have to tell me the story about this girl, We read about her today, our teacher said she was the most famous teen girl in the world, because of her bravery, She stood up against the people who were against girls education at the time when no one stood up, my all class fellows are so much inspired by her work, I wish I can be like her some time, I am her fan… I feel lucky to born in her country…
I asked dad about her, but dad said, I was so young on that time, so better to ask Dada.
So I am here please, please tell me her stories….you were lucky you witness the events live….
Sher Mohammad, was in deep silent after seeing the picture, taking book closer to his eyes, taking the glasses off…
He recognized the face, the face he abused in his young, the face he refused to accept, the face he disrespected, the face he believed it’s a fake story, the face that he thought as agent, the face that he declared as blasphemous.

 

But the time was too late, he couldn’t made it that time,

 

But today in 2049, lies don’t live any more  but only truth survived and it was in his granddaughter’s hand…
He didn’t say any thing, because he can’t lie any more,  
Sher Mohammad stood up and left the house with out answering,
His granddaughter was hugging the book with the picture and seeing it with her eyes full of Inspiration.
inspiration to be like her….
And Truth survived and falseness losses in the dusty winds of time….
