RATTA AMRALL
Chapter two
Ratta amrall is a small town
right in the middle of Rawalpindi city. It must be a small town or rural area
but as
population increased this
small town became important. At one side of this town is Rawalpindi city area
which is exactly like central
Lahore and on the other side is Rawalpindi railway station.
When goras occupied whole
India and their roots were strong than for their own residence they constructed
separate colonies and areas
exactly according to their own living standard. They divided all major cities
into
two parts, cantonment and
city. Cantonment and garrison area was for them and city area was for the rest
of
the people. Rawalpindi
cantonment is under the administration of Rawalpindi cantonment board and
Rawalpindi city is under the
administration of Rawalpindi Municipal Committee.
Ratta Amrall is in between
these two dominions so that's why it has a lot of importance. There is always
shortage of water in ratta
amrall even though it's in between these two dominions.
There is a fairy tale or you
can say legend about ratta amrall.
Once upon time there were two
brothers, Ratta and Patha. One was good and other was bad. Patha killed his
brother ratta and became the
owner of whole town. He was very tyrant and cruel. Unluckily he became poor
again and he became beggar.
He started begging from those people with whom he used to be cruel and tyrant
but this story based upon
truth.
In reality ratta is a word of
Punjabi or potohari dialect which means red and amrall is definitely some cast.
In
the beginning people from
gujar khan and chaklala came here and settled in this small rural area. Who
were
being exiled by the goras? At
that time goras used to send people on exile from one province to another and
other rural areas. In its
surroundings are Mohan pura, dhoke ratta. Between ratta amrall and Mohan pura
there
is famous brook of Rawalpindi
called nalla laye. When you enter in Rawalpindi coming from Lahore you
have to pass over it and same
is the case when leave Rawalpindi you have pass over it. Every year in the
season of monsoon something
like 15th of July to 15th of august it rains a lot. Due to this nonstop rain
sometime this nalla laye's
water comes out and it effects a lot area which is very closet o it.
It must have been a small
brook or ravine for the drainage of Rawalpindi city and it must have been
enough
for this little city. But now
it's not enough for the drainage system of the Rawalpindi city. Not even it's
expanding; it's becoming
dirtier as well.
So during rainy season most
of the ratta amrall area go under water which very exactly at the bank of nalla
laye because flood affects
them. The water of nala laye is so dirty; the word dirty is isn't enough for
that. Even
though people who are fond of
swimming they swim. Especially youngsters when they jump over the bridge
into nala laye like bungee
jumping than they tell to their friends that they jumped ten or twelve time.
During
monsoon when nala laye over
flows some youngster's jumps in nala laye like raiders to save lives and
sometime they take out charpoys
(bed) household things, water buffaloes, goats, tin boxes etc.
The environment of ratta
amrall is like the novels of Charles Dickens. If you go there you will feel
that you
are you are travelling in the
film scene of some Dickens novel. In that mohallah (alley) mosques are named by
the name of the people. Like
chaudary's mosque, blacksmiths mosque, dandi wali mosque (the mosque on the
edge), darmiyani masjid
(central mosque). According to Islam mosque is god's place where Muslims offer
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1
SANYEEN INTERNET
their pray so it's strange
how people can own these mosques.
Between ratta amrall and
railway quarters (the residential area which was built by goras for the people
who
were working for railway)
there was a wall which divides them but now there is no wall. You can see some
part of it. It has been
broken many times. So neither Cantonment Board nor municipal committee rebuilt
it.
There is no garden or ground
for the kids of ratta amrall, where they can play. So they play in the streets
or
rather at the bank of nala
laye which is very dangerous.
The architectural structure
if the houses are typical Indian. I think we haven't introduced yet any
Pakistani
architectural style. Streets
are narrow and lots of kids in every house.
This town ratta amrall got
importance when railway line passes close to this mohallah (alley) and they
have
decided to make railway
station close to it as well. And second thing, when Pakistan came into being
most of
the landlords were Hindus and
Sikhs. They left everything here. We know only the one version of the story
that Sikhs treated Muslims
very badly on the other hand we have done the same thing what they have done
with us. It was vice versa.
Our elders told us that Hindus and Sikhs were cruel and unjust with Muslims but
we haven't got the courage to
except the truth that we Muslims were cruel and unfair with them, if they
demolished our mosques than
we have demolished their mundirs and gurdwaras (mundirs for Hindus and
gurdwaras for Sikhs). It is
hard fact that Muslims were labour class in Rawalpindi and ninety percent
business
men were Hindus and Sikhs.
Especially Sikhs were the richest people of Rawalpindi. The biggest and
beautiful villa which was
used as a presidency was owned by Mohan Singh and sohan Singh. The biggest and
richest contractor of
Rawalpindi was sardar sujhan Singh Roy. In Rawalpindi there is a market on
Kashmir
road and behind this there is
girl's school and post graduate college. This whole building was given by
sardar
sujhan Singh Roy as gift for
the citizen of Rawalpindi city. It might have been possible that Mr. Roy has
bribed goras to get more
contracts, but this is another issue.
This market's raw material
came from England. It was made for goras to provide them fresh and clean food
like fish, meat, vegetables,
fruit and other house hold things. At that time it must have been very clean
but
now it stinks and very dirty.
Anyhow when goras left indo
pak subcontinent than according to division where ever there was Hindus and
Sikhs majority they had to go
back to their homeland which was announced at mid night.
As I told you that the major
businesses were owned by Hindus and Sikhs it's because when goras came, the
Muslims were ruler and they
were suppressed by the goras. So Hindus and Sikhs took possession of Muslim's
properties. Similarly Muslims
did the same thing in Pakistan after the announcement of partition. After the
partition the people who took
maximum properties of Hindus and Sikhs they became rich in very little span of
time so they have decided to
change their cast. According to property what they owned they have selected
their family name. Like
chaudary, malik, awan,mughal, rajpot and khan etc. to prove themselves that
they are
from higher cast they have
invented and designed new family trees which was the proof that they real
descendent of this cast and
creed. They are the descendent of rich and royal family. After seeing their
family
tree you will never be able
to say no.
The political structure and
living style of ratta amrall is exactly like Aryans. I don't say that like
Hindus
because Muslims do not like
Hindus. They still hate them. They took possession of Hindus and Sikhs
properties and lands as well.
They have changed their cast. They follow their culture and they watch Indian
films and still they hate
them, the people who haven't taken any possession than they were specially
granted
by goras. I mean traitors.

Brahmans (educational and
religious class)
All the mullahs of mosques
are like Brahmans. They don't do anything. Local people give donation and
that's
how these mullahs make their
living. If they don't pay them salary they pay their bills and rent and food.
In Hinduism there are two
kinds of Brahmans. Land owning Brahmans and other are ball brahmchari (the one
who don't marry like nuns and
priest in Christianity) but they can own property. Similarly some people think
that these mullahs are
Bal-Brahmchari. So you cannot expect any sin from these mullahs.
Khashtarya (warrior class)
You consider all those people
who are khan, chaudary, awan, mughal and rajpot. All of them try to be
superior among each other but
who got success were Chaudaries on the basis of land and property and khans
on the basis of immorality
and hooliganism. Later on there was alliance between them due to this all other
casts and people were
suppressed. At last they had no choice so they accepted them.
Vesh (business class)
You will find in this class
chaudary's, Maliks, Awans and Rajpots. Here you don't consider Rajpots as a
warrior class. You consider
them business class, shop owning people. In Rajpots families as soon as the
child
comes into this world he
learns business as quick as possible. Some people say that he learns counting
in
mother's belly. Chaudaries,
Maliks and awan had alliance with Khashtarya class long time ago so we have
only Rajpots in this class.
So Rajpots are Vesh in ratta amrall.
Shudras (maleech or
untouchables)
You can consider all those
people who are not local and Christians as well are Shudras or maleech. When
goras came to India they were
very cunning. They brought their missionaries as well. So all those people who
were untouchables most of
them became Christians. Their class was little bit changed but goras made
separate
churches and Iglesias for
black and Indian Christians. For goras they had their churches.
In ratta amrall there is no
proper drainage and gutter system. It's worse than Mohanjo Daro and Harappa.
There is no flush system in
toilettes. There must have been few houses they have this modern system, so
there
no proper system to clean
latrines. So that's why these Christians (untouchables) with biblical names and
cross
in their neck they do this
work. It's not that someone force them. It's permanent job from municipal
committee
and they get monthly salary
for that. Other than that they clean streets, roads, drains and gutters as
well.
Recently due to lack of jobs
some Muslims have started this work as well. The Muslims who are fond of
foreign made liqueur they get
this with the help of Christians. Pakistan is an Islamic country so Pakistani
Government Issue permits only
to non Muslims. On the other hand the breweries are run by Islamic republic
of Pakistan and all workers
in these breweries are Muslims. Apart from than these Christians (Shudras) go
to
clean their houses and
latrines, so they offer them something to drink but it's very important they
should not
touch anything. If they touch
anything it will be pleed (unclean or dirty). If by mistake they touch anything
it
should be broken. In some
houses they keep separate cup and glass for these Christians because they
untouchables. It has nothing
to do with Islam or religion. It's only a cultural thing. Genetically we have
Aryans and Drawadians genes.
As a matter of fact the
people who are Christians they are very poor and for them there is no
entertainment.
They can't even afford
television. For married Christian couples the only entertainment is sex. That's
why they
have many kids. To provide
them food their husband sells alcohol's permits and all of them but some
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1
SANYEEN INTERNET
Christian's girls do
prostitution for little money.
When Muslim men go to them
and have sex with them. Sometime these girls want to kiss them but Muslim
men stop them. "No, you
are Christian" and then they respond "what about my cunt".
Ratta amrall has few cottage
industries but the most popular and famous cottage industry is their local
wine.
There are few breweries but
most famous are two. One is down at the bank of the nala laye. And other is in
the centre of ratta amrall.
They use sparrow brand spirit in their breweries. So they call it chiri
(sparrow). In
indo pak subcontinent it's
called thura as well. Some people call it kuppi. Kuppi is actually the size of
bottle.
Exactly like full bottle,
half bottle and quarter bottle. So quarter is kuppi. This chiri brand liquor or
wine is
very strong. Jamaican rum
Wray and Nephew is less strong than that, even though the volume of Wray and
nephew is seventy percent.
Some people are permanently
aeroplanes (here aeroplane means who are alcoholics) but some of them drink
occasionally. Like at the
occasion of Eid-ul-Fitre and Eid ul Azha. We call them Fokker. These Fokker
take
off on eid day and land on
the same evening. There are some aeroplanes that drink chiri (kuppi or thura)
and
fly. There are some other
kinds of aeroplanes like who smoke heroine. Once they take off than they don't
land.
In any corner if you see
burnt pieces of silver foils and cigarettes silver wrappers; it means that some
aeroplanes were trying to
take off.
Heroine smokers they take out
that white powder stuff from small plastic bag and then they put or pour that
powder on used silver wrapper
of cigarette on spinning side and burn it from the bottom with cigarette
lighter
or match stick. Then they put
silver coin, especially of ten paisa's in their mouth but they hold it in their
mouth. After burning process,
heroine is free of all impurities. Then they roll one rupee note must be brand
new and use it as pipe. And
inhale or suck with this pipe which is made of one rupee note. When it strikes
with silver coin which they
hold in their mouth than its taste and flavour is more than normal.
This drug is exactly like
grains and villain which is known as hard core drug in Europe and America.
They take thirty three mille
litre empty bottle of Evian or Volvic (two famous French brand of mineral water
in Europe). Half of the
bottle they fill it with water. Its mouth they cover it with silver foil or
cigarette
wrapper. When they cover it
than they tighten it with something, then they make small spores with needle
any
ball pen which is empty
without riffle. They use this empty ball pen as pipe and fix it in the bottle
but they
take special precautions that
air should pass through any other way. So it becomes like a hookah (Hubble
bubble). Then they pour
grains and then give them light with lighter. When these grains burn, their
smoke
goes into to bottle and
strikes with water. Then they suck that smoke with that ball pen pipe which was
being
fixed earlier. They enjoy it
as people enjoy heroine. Some people say that grains are stronger than heroine.
Apart from heroine and
alcohol, Amrallians use other kinds of drugs as well. Like birjo ram, (its
crushed
concentrated spirit),
hashish, marijuana and cannabis. So using drugs depends upon class, as class
changes
than drugs changes as well.
There are some popular
personalities of ratta amrall like Sufi's cheap dawakhana (herbal medicine),
sheik
dispenser, Hajji Noor Elahi
provision store and Pappu chaewalla (tea seller)
At Sufi's cheap dawakhana you
will find herbal medicines. They don't use steroids and antibiotics. Sheikh
dispenser is like a doctor
for amrallians and he meets the needs of amrallians health. In fact he isn't
doctor. He
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1
SANYEEN INTERNET
must have done some short course
of dispenser or compounder but amrallians consider him doctor.
Hajji Noor Elahi has
provision store. You will find everything in his store but he will never give
you change,
even if you desperately in
need to have change. The second thing he doesn't do. He doesn't sell needle
after
sunset but during day time
you can as many as you need. If you will give him counterfeit money and if it's
a
coin he will throw your money
in the middle of the road.
The most famous restaurant of
ratta amrall is Pappu's restaurant. You will find best Dodh Patti (a tea which
is
made of milk and tea leafs no
water added) in ratta amrall form his restaurant. Would you like o know the
secret of his tea best tea
making? He uses the same kettle for hundred or even more cups and doesn't wash
it.
Then he serves this tea to
his customers in very small cups (with the passage of time these cups are
becoming
smaller and smaller). His
customers they take this tea as a water of life. They feel that this is their
last cup of
tea and it's like last
supper. When they drink tea they inhale dust as well which increases the taste
of tea.

Adam khan chughtai was
sleeping. Early in the morning his mother said, "wake up my son new
maullawi
sahib (the one who gives you
basic religious education and teaches you how to read the Quran) has come. Go
to the mosque to take the
lesson of the Quran". Adam didn't like it because it was very cold. A
seven years old
boy knows nothing, in cold
weather doing ablution and taking lesson of the Quran (how to read). It was
very
difficult for Adam and he
never liked it. But reluctantly and unwillingly he woke up and went to lohara's
masjid (the mosque of
blacksmiths. Some blacksmiths family member built this mosque so it's called
masjid
lohara's. Even though there
new generation is not doing what their forefather were doing). It was being
announced after the fajar
prayer that new maullawi sahib (the one who teaches you religious things
specially
teaches you how to read Quran
and sahib stands for Mr. or Sir as a respect) has been arrived. So those people
who want to send their kids
for quranic lessons send them to lohara's mosque, after Fajar prayer and in the
evening after Assar prayer.
Adam didn't belong to a poor
family but chughtai family had fall after rise. So when Adam khan chughtai was
born they were getting little
bit better.
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1

When Sheebani khan, Zaheer
Uddin Babar's maternal uncle kicked him out form Fergana, Samarkand and
Bukhara Babar never even
dreamt about it that he will defeat Ibrahim Lodhi on 1525 in the battle of
Panipat
and foundation stone of
mughal empire in India will be laden by him. After the death of Aurangzeb
Alamgir
in 1705 the Mughal Empire
started declining and on 1857 the Mughal Empire was completely declined.
Whole Hindustan was colonized
by goras and they looted everything from India. According to latest analysis
Akbar the great had that much
wealth that French king Louis 14th, Italian king Cosimo Medici and queen of
England if you put their
wealth together and do the comparison. Their wealth is still lesser than Akbar
the
great. Goras, they hadn't
even looted wealth. They have taken the world most expensive diamond
kooh-e-Noor (mountain of
light) from India which Mughal brought from Iran. It was fixed in Takht-e-Taus
(Peacock Throne). Mughal were
still suffering after 1857 until 1970.
Adam Khan Chughtai's
ancestors were settled in Kashmir after the war of independence in 1857 which
goras
call war of mutiny or sapoys
mutiny. From Kashmir, Adam Khan Chughtai's grandfather migrated to Bae
(twenty two) a small village
which is five or six kilometre far from Hassan Abdal and they settled there
than
his grandfather decided to
migrate once again and he came to Rawalpindi. In Rawalpindi city he selected to
live ratta amrall.
During the fall of Mughal
Empire, mughal started changing their name and occupations as well just to save
their lives. They haven't
even used Mughal's surnames like Barlas, Chughtai, Baig, Mughal, and Mirza. All
of
them were the branches of
mughal families who were originally Mongols and they were known Mughal's by
the goras.
Adam khan chughtai did his
ablution quickly and went to that section of mosque where maullawi sahib was
sitting. Some kids were
sitting on the mats of mosque. Adam found a place and sat with them.
Adam started observing
maullawi sahib habitually. Maullawi sahib wasn't like other maullawis. All the
maullawis he had seen were
with beard, either black or white but this maullawi sahib was different. He
looked
like a convict who has
escaped from lock up.
He was more than six feet.
Colour dark neither black nor yellow. You can say wheatish colour. He hadn't
shave for couple of weeks. He
was wearing khaki overcoat and had a stick in his hand. His neck bone was like
pedigreed cock because of
this in short span of time he got this name sanyeen kukar (kukar is cock)
After having a glance of this
gentleman Adam thought of Charles Dickens convict who meet with pip in the
grave yard. The whole story
of great expectation came in his mind which he read in children's digest
naunehal
(little kid). Now a day he
was reading Carlo Collodi's Pinocchio.
The very first day Adam was
being scared and panicked by sanyeen kukar. His real name was Ustad Manzoor
(ustad is teacher or
maestro). He was very daring, courageous, valiant, bashful and honest. For the
right of his
people in Soan Skessar he
committed a crime. It was the period and reign of roti kapra aur makan (food
cloth
and shelter). They never
liked rebellious people even though sanyeen manzoor was at right.
Sanyeen Manzoor left his
village which wasn't very far from soan skessar and came to Rawalpindi and
decided to settle in ratta
amrall. He had a job at local post office as a loader. He wasn't like other
maullawis
who don't work and local
people give the donations for their living. He hadn't have beard.
Every morning before going to
work he used to give quranic lessons to kids and after finishing his in the
evening, after Assar and
Maghreb prayer he used to give lessons as well.
In the beginning Adam was
very scarred of sanyeen manzoor than he became the most favourite student of
sanyeen manzoor because he
was very good in memorizing his lessons.
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1
SANYEEN INTERNET
Sanyeen manzoor had passed
only few months in lohara's masjid and he had grudge with caretaker of the
mosque so he left that
mosque. He went to chaudary's mosque. He started living lessons there. He never
took
any money for giving lessons.
It was free of cost. For him it was a kind of missionary work. He was slim and
tall but very strong and had
strong will power. He was very clean and pure person. He asked for anything to
his students like food, clothes
or place to stay. He never had bad eye or look on any boy or a girl. He used to
fulfil his needs from his
salary. If some student had gone to cinema he has been brought back by him from
cinema because he was very
honest.
It happened one day Sanyeen
Manzoor was cross with some of the chaudary's son because he wasn't learning
his lesson. It was chaudary's
mosque. They came and said, "You can say anything to anyone but not to our
kids because we own this
mosque". They not even insulted him, they hit him as well. They were
thinking that
sanyeen manzoor is scarred
and suppressed so he will never do anything like this with any of chaudary's
kids
in the future. Sanyeen
Manzoor had two options one was beat him up and leave the mosque and second was
be to beg him. He liked the
first option and after getting permission from his students he threw one of
them
(the one who hit him) on the
floor and left the mosque.
He was like pied piper. Where
ever he had been. He had same students. The number of students was
increasing instead of
decreasing. He went to Dandi Walli masjid (the mosque on the edge). It wasn't
even
mosque. It was a religious
school where students used to come to learn Quran by heart and to become hafiz.
In
the beginning the caretaker
of the mosque and other maullawis were okay with sanyeen manzoor but later on
they were jealous of his
popularity which he earned in a short period.
One day sanyeen manzoor was
disappeared from the mosque. He wasn't in the mosque and in the post office
where he was working.
During his stay he taught
Quran to those boys and girls who were unable to control by anyone.
Adam khan chughtai learn to
read Quran in one year and he had repeated many times. Whenever Adam Khan
used to come back from school
sanyeen manzoor used to stop him because his post office was on the way to
his school. Manzoor sahib
used to tell his colleagues that he is my brilliant student and he used to ask
him to
recite namaz and Dua-e Qanut
and Qalmay as well. Adam used to recite these things fluently. Ustad manzoor
used to call him bhaechara.
This phrase he invented by himself.
Adam khan and Sara Barlas
were brought up together. They used to play together. Suddenly Sara felt some
changes in her body. So she
stopped playing with boys especially with Adam khan. Sara stopped coming out
from her house. Whenever she
went somewhere she had to wear a big chador (it's used for veil). In the
beginning it was big change
for Adam than he got used to it. He kept himself busy in books. Playing
marbles,
tip-cats and Flying kites
were his sports. On the other hand he never saw Sara playing stapu and kiss.
That was Adam's first love
but he never knew that he is in love. He used to invent new excuses to see her.
Getting up early in the
morning was always difficult for Adam that's why he has never been to school on
time
and he had to pick up stones
from school's ground or teachers used to punish him.
When Sara started going to
school on Tonga (horse driven carriage). Adam had to wake up early in the
morning just to see her.
After that he was always on time at school and his teachers were shocked. For
them it
was strange that how this
miracle happened. Than Sara stopped going on Tonga. Now Adam had to wait for
eid ul fitre because on every
eid ul fitre he used to take vermicelli to her house just to see her. He used
to wait
for this day like Gabriel
Garcia Marquez's hero wait for his girl friend in loved in the time of cholera
on the
bench. On the other Sara was
completely unaware of all these activities like to see her glimpse on Tonga and
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1
SANYEEN INTERNET
wait for eid ul fitre.
One day Adam heard that Sara
got married with army's captain so after that he started hating army.
Khaqan Khan Chughtai, Adam's
father was lewd, jovial and lively person. After his first wife's death he
tried
his level best for second
marriage but he failed to do that. His sister Zamani Begum helps him but their
all
efforts were useless.
For Adam these were great
calamities. One was that that he lost his mother and second was Sara barlas was
married. These one after
another mishaps were unbearable for him. He was grumpy and sad.
He was fond of literature but
he liked poetry a little bit. However a boy of fifteen or sixteen is not able
to
understand the depth of
poetry.
In the mean time news spread
in ratta amrall that a woman has stolen dowry ornament f someone and escaped.
They caught her but she was
being released due to good family background. Due to this reason his son left
her
and he escaped somewhere
without telling anyone. It was strange for Adam. Indo pak subcontinent was
establishing and progressing
slowly. Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims were living in harmony and peace but
gradually both countries were
realising that indo pak subcontinent was badly looted by goras. Both countries
were suffering because of
economy. It was getting worse and worse.
Hindustan is being looted for
ages. First of all Aryans came from Metan and looted drawadians who were the
original natives of India
than Aryans decided to stay in India. Iranians attacked India. Alexander the
great
came to India in 327b.c. and
conquered it. He left his governor Seleucus Nicator. Chandra Gupt Maurya
defeated him and laid the
foundation of Maurayan Empire in India. Than his son Bindusar ruled India and
after him his son Asoka ruled
India for something like fifty years. Kushans came afterward. They were
outsiders. India had
Hindushahi period for a little time. White Huns came from central Asian ransacked
whole
India and burnt all Buddhist
monasteries.
Muslim invaders came to India
in 711 a.d. first time. Mohammad Bin Qasim invaded India when he was only
17 years old. At the same
time Muslim invaded Spain and for Spain the invader was Tariq Bin Ziad. He
conquered Spain in 711 a.d.
as well. Muslims left their sign in India. The second Muslim invader came to
India was Mahmud Ghaznavi.
Who was from Afghanistan and he invaded India in 1025 and won the battle
and he left his governor.
According to historical books he attacked India 17 times for the sake of
religion but
he was looter as well he took
everything whatever they have in form of gold and money. Than ghanavid were
defeated by Ghoris.
Respectively than Khiljis, Tughlaqs and Lodhis ruled India. From ghoris to
lodhis we call
them Khandan-e-Ghulaman
(Slaves Dynasty) during this period Tamburlaine attacked India as well. He was
the descendent of Changhez
Khan (Ganges Khan). He came as a looter as well. After Aryans who stayed in
India permanently were Mughal
(mongols). They ruled India for three hundred and fifty years approximately.
Zaheer Uddin Babar defeated
Ibrahim lodhi in the battle of Panipat in 1525 and laid the foundation stone on
Mughal Empire in India. Than
his son Humayun came but after a little while one of his soldier, Sher Shah
Suri who was afghan took
power and kicked him out and laid the foundation of Surian Empire. Later on
humayun came from Iran and
with the help of Iranians he defeated sher shah Suri's descendent Adil Shah Suri
and took the power back. He
reined India for a short period and died while he was in his library. His son
Akbar (Jalal Uddin) became
the king of India for nearly fifty years. After Akbar became Jahangir, Shah
Jehan,
Aurangzeb Alamgir and the
last king of Mughals was Bhadur Shah Zafar.

Mughals built many monuments
and buildings in India. Taj Mahal is one of the examples of mughal art. Some
poets call it "poetry
written with marble". Last invaders were English. They sucked the last
drops of blood
form Indian's corpses. From
western countries Portuguese were the first Europeans who stepped in India in
the 15th century. Than
French, Dutch and Spanish came to India but all of them were beaten by English.
English came as merchants and
occupied whole India in 1857. We call it war of independence but goras call it
mutiny of sapoys. During this
period two other invaders came to India from Afghanistan. One was Nadir Shah
Durrani. Who properly
ransacked India and other was Ahmad Shah Abdali who massacred and ruined as
well.
Adam Khan chughtai was
reading a book of history which has the history of indo pak subcontinent. He
was
shocked that India was being
looted by different invaders from last four thousand years. India must have
been
very rich and happy that's
why everyone came to India and looted it. In Indian five thousand years history
they never invaded any
country and never crossed oceans and entered in other countries for looting
purposes.
Only Indians being used by
others as a soldiers but it doesn't mean that Indians were coward. It's because
they
were rich and well settled
and as a matter of fact the people who are well settled they don't leave their
country
without their own will.
Adam khan chughtai was very
upset because their next door neighbour he went to abroad for the betterment of
life. He started thinking
that in indo pak subcontinent we don't have any means of earning. Is it
completely
looted? Many questions arise
in his mind. He was brought up in a different environment and in school he
studied radiant way (name of
the school book for learning English). Ratta amrall was entirely different from
his books and stories which
he has read in these books. He thought of that boy who left his house because
he
heard that his mother was
thief he was ashamed that's why he escaped. It was his modesty. On the other
hand
invaders were looting India
since ages. Have they ever though that we are looting these people and wasn't
it a
shameful thing. They were not
ashamed of it.
Adam khan chughtai had
forgotten his childhood love because his father left ratta amrall due to some
reasons.
They were now settled in
Saddar (cantonment) area of Rawalpindi.
Khaqan Khan Chughtai left
Ratta Amrall because there were two reasons. One was that that he got married
with help of his sister
zamani begum. Zamani begum left no stone unturned for his brother's second
marriage.
Khaqan khan chughtai wasn't
willing that someone criticize him and second reason was that he wasn't willing
to spoil his son's future
because according to Khaqan Khan Ratta Amrall's environment wasn't good for his
son. Alcohol, hashish,
smoking hemp, opium, cannabis and most dangerous was heroin. These drugs were
very common in ratta amrall.
Above all gambling and betting were unbearable and the most worrying thing
was Adam's strange questions
and queries. Like he read in books that all human beings all equal but in Ratta
Amrall there were Chaudaries,
Maliks, Khans, Awans, Rajpots, Mughals and servants (working class).
Christians who were doing
clearing work in their houses and they used to clean their toilettes why they
gave
them food and drink in
separate plate and glass. Why these Christians had to sit on
Chapter 2: Ratta Amarall 1
SANYEEN INTERNET
Chapter 3: Ratta Amarall 2
the floor instead of couch or
a chair. They were and are human being like everyone else. He read in quranic
verse Surat Alfatiha that oh
great lord and god we pray to you and for everything what we need we ask you
then why instead of following
this quranic verse they go to chaudaries and khans for the help.
In many quranic verses it has
been mentioned at different places that alcohol is prohibited in Islam but
amrallians they drink alcohol
on Eid ul Fitre and Eid ul Azha. After drinking they fall in drain lines and
gutters. Why they drink and
make noise and curse other people. No one has reasonable answers for Adam's
these questions. In saddar
area where they settled now, it wasn't dense populated area. There were big
bungalows and it was neat and
clean area. There was Proper drainage system and all houses had flush system.
You just pull the chain and
whatever you have done in the commode in a blink of eye it goes.
Sir Syed School is few yards
away from Punj Sarki petrol pump (pentad roads gas station). Exactly opposite
to sir syed school there is a
lane which is inclined and goes down towards end. On right hand side and on
left
hand side there are expensive
villas and at the beginning of the road there is big villa which is empty and
deserted since very long.
At the end of this lane
Khaqan Khan Chughtai got a two bed room house on rent. It was old fashioned
house
but it was full of basics
needs. Like flush system which was nearly rare in ratta amrall.
Adam khan Chughtai father
force him to study science instead of arts when he completed his matriculation
exam. However Adam was fond
of arts and literature. He was madly in love with fine arts. In his childhood
he
read naunehal and Taleem-o-Tarbeat
and he was a bit grown he started reading littrerary magazines like
Naqoosh, Adab-e-Lateef,
Sawera and Chattan. He had no inclination towards physics, chemistry and
mathematics. He started going
to college because he had no choice. He put aside his all wishes and he did
intermediate in pre
engineering subjects. He had two months holidays. These holidays were like
punishment
or torturing oneself because
in Ratta Amrall it wasn't difficult to pass time. He had loads of friends there
but
here in this lane he was on
his own.
Khaqan sahib was very busy in
his married life and Adam was living with them like a time traveller. One day
a new family shifted in this
lane. They were nearly their neighbours. In short span of period they were
acquainted to each other.
Khaqan sahib used to go early in the morning and back in the evening and Adam
had to stay alone at home.
One day Najma Begum their
neighbourhood came to Adam's house and asked Adam's step mother, if Adam
doesn't do anything. He can give
private tuition to my kids if he likes. Adam's step mother said okay because
she was willing to have
relationships with neighbour agreeable and favourable. So like that Adam
started
giving tuition or you can say
private lessons to najma begum's kids, even though he wasn't willing.
Najma begum was nearly thirty
years old but she used to look younger than her age. She kept herself fit and
smart and with help of make
up as well. Her husband was a bank officer in Kuwait. Najma's parents gave her
hand to this bank officer
when najma was only fifteen years old. After couple of month Najma's husband
went
to Kuwait and he used to come
after six or twelve months. Najma begum went to Kuwait but she didn't like
the way of living. So she
came back to Pakistan. Najma begum was very attached with Adam and than this
attachment was converted into
love. But this attachment was one-sided. Due to this sexual relationship she
had to take pills sometime.
Chapter 3: Ratta Amarall 2
SANYEEN INTERNET
Adam was suffering of
conscience guilt that what he was doing wasn't right. What he was doing was
adultery,
fornication and extra marital
sexual relationship. But for this adultery and fornication he wasn't willing,
najma
begum was persuading him for
this.
Adam thought about
D.H.Lawrence's novel called Lady Chatterley's lover. Now he knew that Lawrence
was
right that woman not only
need money and basic needs. She needs sexual relationship. It's not luxury. For
woman it's necessity.
Human beings they urge for
different things in their life until death; sometime for food, sometime for
sexual
needs, sometime for money and
sometime to become prominent among others and sometime for land. In Lady
Chatterley's lover the hero
has been injured during war. He lost his legs but najma begum's husband was
physically okay. But he was
running to and fro for the money he was nearly greedy to have a lot of money.
He
wanted to be the richest and
that's why he was paying for this.
While Adam and Najma Begum
were enjoying their life Adam passed the exam and he join the college for
graduation. He hasn't got
good marks to get admission in engineering university. So he had the choice to
do
bachelors of Science, arts or
commerce. Again his father selected the subjects for him. This time the
combination was maths stats
and economics.
All Pakistanis has mob
mentality. They follow others customs blindly. After 1947 everyone selected
wanted
to be a barrister, lawyer and
solicitor because Mohammad Ali Jinnah (fonder of Pakistan) and Doctor
Muhammad Iqbal (the great
Muslim poet who gave the two nation theory) were barristers and they did bar at
law. When we had loads of
lawyers than people started becoming doctors and engineers and MBA's, now
everyone was studying maths,
stats and economics.
So Adam followed the mobs
mentality and got admission in college according to dad's will. One day Adam
was coming back from college,
the corner villa in their lane which was depopulated and empty and was quite
big. He saw that some people
were unloading furnisher and household things. He asked them, they said that
this villa has been bought by
Mr. Kharal. For Adam it was new cast because before he heard Chaudary, Malik,
Khan, Awan and Mughals etc
but Kharal was totally new thing for him.
This family had five members.
Behram kharal sahib, his wife Zuleikhan Mehtar Jan, their thirteen years old
daughter Nadia Behram Kharal,
dae amma (Nadia's governess) she came with Mehtar Jan's as a part of her
dowry. She was cook, servant
and governess as well and zouqe their chauffeur. His name was zouqe but he
hasn't got any literature
affection as his name meaning was affection for literature. Zouqe had fair
complexion
because he was Abbassi.
Adam was happy that at last
this depopulated villa has been populated. May be some of them will be of his
age but here the story was
entirely different from his expectations.
In the evening Adam came out
for some personal reasons. He was walking in the lane. Suddenly he had a
glance in kharal sahib's lawn.
The walls were low, so it was easy to see everything in their lawn. He was
stunned after having this
glance what he has seen. Sara barlas was standing in front of him but in fact
she
wasn't Sara Barlas she was
someone else. It was only because she was still in his mind. The girl he saw in
the
lawn was wearing pink shalwar
qameez (shalwar is baggy trouser and qameez is long shirt up to knees). She
swinging on swing and reading
some book. After this glance his whole life was changed. He was fed of
studying and reading books.
He hadn't read any literary magazine. He started thinking that how can he can
go
closer to that girl. His days
were passing in day dreaming. His all plans were failed because Kharal Sahib
was
very strict person and his
wife Mehtar Jan has never been out. Whenever she went out she was always with
Chapter 3: Ratta Amarall 2
SANYEEN INTERNET
chauffeur Zouqe. Kharal sahib
was more or less than seventy. He was working in Islamabad stock Exchange.
Where he used to buy and sell
shares. He had some shares as well. His whole business, money and land had
been snatched by his previous
wife the one who was from Lahore. Kharal sahib came to Rawalpindi with left
over. He came with his young
and beautiful wife and little and cute daughter Nadia. He invested saving and
capital in Islamabad stock
Exchange. He was very dry person. He never responded nicely when someone said
hello. They had two cars. One
was for him and other was for his loving daughter and his wife zuleikhan
Mehtar Jan. Nadia used to go
to convent (where she was studying) in that car and Mehtar Jan used to go for
shopping with zouqe and dae
amma.
Kharal sahib passed two years
in this lane but he never mixed up with neighbours and other resident of this
lane.
One day kharal sahib lost his
wife in an accident. For Nadia it was great loss because her 'O' level's exam's
were very near. During her
mum's death Adam came closer to this family but after funeral ceremony it was
ended.
Adam thought for himself like
the hero of Viladivar Nabokov's novel's Lolita's hero. Adam's step broche and
sister were very attached
with him. They loved him but he was very much involved in his own world. On the
other hand najma and Adam
were still seeing each other. Adam tried his level best to talk with Nadia but
whenever he had failure in
his mission he went to najma begum just to feel less disgrace. Nadia was always
in
his imaginations.
Nadia was very proud, peevish
and short tempered girl. She used to knit her brows all the time. Whenever
they met in the lane
incidentally, he wanted to say something and Nadia responded very badly. She
never used
Urdu whenever she said
something. She always responded in English. Anyway for Nadia these were
incidents
but for Adam not because these
all incidents were conceived by Adam. He used to prepare these incidents for
hours.
According to Adam's
philosophy that if he will have any chance to be closer to Nadia than he will
forget Sara
barlas and whatever he is
doing with najma begum. He will get rid of his conscience guilty.
Adam wasn't very religious.
He used to go to mosque occasionally like on eid-ul-fitre or Eid-ul-Azha but
now
he started praying regularly.
After completing his graduation's exam he got admission in alliance francaise
at
Islamabad.
He was practising religion
properly. He never missed even a single pray even if he was in cinema and
watching film. He used to
leave cinema whenever it was the time of pray. His favourite cinemas were
Odeon,
Plaza and Ciros because they
used to show English movies.
He took the membership of
Pakistan National centre, Lansdowne library and municipal library. When he
started going to Islamabad
fro French classes at alliance francaise he took the membership of American
centre
and British council.
While he was learning French
he was being introduced with French writers, poets and painters. He liked Van
Gogh and Paul Gaugan and
besides these two he liked Henry Matisse and Salvador Dali as well. However guy
de Maupassant change his vision
about literature. Other than him Emile Zola, Gustauve Flaubert, Stendhal,
Honore de Balzac etc. Two
French philosophers were his favourite Voltaire and Jean Jacques Rousseau.
Chapter 3: Ratta Amarall 2
SANYEEN INTERNET
Apart from these entire French
intellectual he read Saadat Hassan Manto, D.H. Lawrence, Henry Miller,
Giovanni Boccaccio and Dante
Alighieri. There he found a great schism of literature and religion. Now he
used to spend his time in
libraries and mosque.
Khaqan khan chughtai had
never have any spare time to Adam that what are his future plans because he was
so much busy with his wife
and his kid's affairs. His father was doing like all other fathers do. He was
paying
all the bills but for Adam
that wasn't enough. For him the most important was not money. He was in search
of
kindness, affection, love and
attachment that he never felt.
When Adam was born his
country was newly came out under the dictatorship and people were enjoying so
called democracy. But when he
was a bit grown up, again martial law (dictatorship) was being implemented.
A new dictator came. It was
exactly seems like that that indo pak subcontinent's people are slave by birth.
They were born slave and they
will die as slaves. Similarly Adam was thinking that he was born in dictator's
reign and he will die in some
dictator's reign. This dictatorship not even created some new religious groups
but created Mahajir Qaumi
Movement (immigrant's National movement). They were trying to suppress
something and other things
came out. Adam, whenever he felt tranquillity he went to Anwar cafe. It was a
small cafe. Some time he used
to go to drivers hotel (in Pakistan sometime hotel word stands for restaurant)
both of them were very small.
One was on Kashmir road; the one going towards Gwalmandi (milkman
market). It was exactly
opposite to the military accounts general office and Anwar cafe was at Adamjee
road
was exactly opposite to the
mosque. The mosque which was in front of the Anwar cafe had a big minerate.
This mosque must have been a
small mosque but this god's home, they have transgressed that much that they
occupied pavement and that
part of the road became narrow but no one had raised a voice against this
transgression because it was
God's home.
Here at Anwar cafe Adam met
with Bada-Unni sahib. Bada-unni sahib was making spirals of cigarette smoke,
taking tea and prating
himself. He was being told that bada-unni sahib is lunatic and mad. He should
not talk
to him but Adam had a lot of
curiosity about this type of people. He went to his table where he was sitting
and
he sat with him. Bada- Unni
sahib shouted, "Get lost, and don't disturb me. You think i am mad. I am
not mad.
You are mad, you people are
mad to fulfil your wishes. Look at that namazi (the one who offers namaz means
pray). Look at him the way he
is scratching and itching. To me it seems like that that he isn't here to offer
his
prayer. He is here for
itching and scratching like a sick dog. The one has itching disease. He doesn't
even
know what maullawi is saying.
He is following him like a sheep's mob mentality". Adam said, "It's
true
bada-unni sahib but namaz
(pray) isn't concern with your intention. In Islam your niyat (intention) is
important than your pray. God
only wants to know that you are lost in the hustle and bustle of this world or
not. This dazzling and
effulgence world has dazzled your eyes or not. All of us have to go back. As we
shall
sow, so shall we reap"?
"Which God and who's
Allah. Don't disturb me; let me think on quantum theory".
In the mean while an old man
from the next table came to Adam and said, "my son don't disturb him, as
you
know in our country people
don't have much awareness. If someone will hear what he is saying? They don't
even care he is mad, they
will beat him up. They don't even need any excuse".
Adam said, may i know who you
are if you Mr. If don't mind"?
"I am an ordinary writer
of Rawalpindi"
It was Adam's first
experience meeting with some writer. He had his own imaginations about writers.
That the
people who write books how do
they look like. They must be proud, arrogant, egoist and reluctant to speak
with others. But he was very
simple and down to earth. Writers, poets, short story writers they are the
essence
Chapter 3: Ratta Amarall 2
SANYEEN INTERNET
and cream of the society but
people think that armed forces are the essence of the society or people who do
civil services. Neither in
army nor in civil services can one develop his creative activities. For example
Parveen Shakir, she was
c.s.p. officer but she is popular as a poetess, she died in a road accident in
1994
unfortunately.
In army and c.s.p. you are
bound of rules and regulations. On the other hand conceiver and creator are not
bound of these things. In Asian
countries money, luxuries are the standard to judge someone's personality but
writers live hand to mouth.
Aziz malik had seen creation
of Pakistan. He must have been fifteen years old when Pakistan came into being.
He had the spirit for
fighting for the truth, right in the beginning when he was young. He became an
important
member of Khaksar Tehreek
(humbles movement it's called baylcha Tehreek as well because their sign was
spade). He didn't like Muslim
league or congress. He liked Allama Inayat Husain Mashraqui's Baylcha
Tehreek. Khaksar movement had
symbol of spade which is baylcha. Khaksar movement's manifesto was
different from Muslim League.
It was a bit heart catchy. If Mohammad Ali Jinnah would have accepted
allama mashraqui's suggestion
than Pakistan wouldn't have been divided into two parts and millions of people
wouldn't have been died
during interchange of refugees. But Jinnah was stubborn. He refused his
suggestion.
It was nothing to do with him
that an independent country will be created. That was his personal grudge with
Jawaharlal Nehru. He wanted
to show him that how powerful he is because Nehru never wanted Jinnah
remains in congress. Mohammad
Ali Jinnah got married with Parsi girl (Parsi means Farsi which is Farus and
Farus is Iran. In fact the
Parsis are called zartusht. The follower of Zoroaster, they came to India from
Farus
and from Farus to Farsi and
then became Parsi) so Nehru had an excuse and it was more interesting when
parsi group refused to give
donations to congress party and at that time congress badly needed funds and
donations. Jinnah never
thought like that that he will be treated like that and he will face defeat
like this. He
was very intelligent and wise
man. Apart from this he was very well dressed, foppish and dandy. He had five
hundred suits of Austin Reeds
and fifty pair of shoes, two cars. He impressed that Parsi girl with his wealth
and wisdom. So she married
with Jinnah. Usually Jews and Parsis girls are not allowed to marry out of the
family and she was married
with a person who had different religion. Later on Jinnah's daughter married
with
Parsi boy.
When Pakistan came into being
Jinnah was very honest with Pakistan. He did his levels best in building and
for the progress of Pakistan
but Khan Sahib (Liaquat Ali Khan) was thinking that after independence he will
hand over the governorship of
Pakistan to him.
Adam passed the exams. He
started thinking that what he should do. He had many options after graduation.
Shall he find himself some
job or shall he continue his studies. He had the choice of doing masters, civil
services, and chartered
accountant. Finally his father poked his nose and said, "My son you should
do masters
in mathematics or statistics.
You will get easily good job as a professor. You didn't become engineer and
army
you don't like".
Adam responded first time
that he will select the subject for masters otherwise he will stop studying and
look
for the job.
Due to this respond Adam's
father said, "If you want to continue your studies. You will have to do
masters in
maths or stats. Otherwise you
will not have any pocket money. By the way there isn't anything special in
doing masters in philosophy
and literature. There are so many graduates and post graduates who have done
their masters in Urdu or
English literature and they are still jobless. It's not a professional
qualification".
Chapter 3: Ratta Amarall 2
SANYEEN INTERNET
"Okay than I will find
myself some job and i will do masters in literature or philosophy privately
because i
love it".
Khaqan sahib said, "Do
whatever you like. You are living in your fantasies and dreamland, when you
will
wake up than you will be able
to understand the reality".
Khaqan sahib was absolutely
right. Where ever Adam had been for the job. Some asked for graft (illegal
money or bribery) some asked
for intercession or recommendation either eligible or no eligible. Some asked
for experience. He was simple
graduate the one who just had finished his education. For him graft and
recommendation was possible
but experience he hadn't had. Where ever he had been for interview with his
C.V. he being considered like
others. For them there was no difference among post graduates, science
graduates, humanities
graduates, commerce graduates or business graduates. They were all same. He was
badly hurt. He had spent four
years in science subjects which were more difficult than arts. During interview
there was no difference among
them. They called graduates or post graduates. He was thinking that horses and
donkeys are in same boat. He
hasn't mentioned this to anyone and accepted his dad's proposal.
He came to his dad and said,
"Dad i will do whatever you will say. I lost the battle".
Khaqan sahib said,
"That's like a good boy. Now you are back to the normal". He
continued sarcastically, "So
you were looking for some
job. My son life is a film of Raj Kapoor or Daleep Kumar. It isn't that India
or
Pakistan where we used to
have graduates one in a million. Now we have graduates like fifty years before
we
had matriculates. Those days
are gone when matriculation was enough to get a job. Now we have a lot of
competition. Doctors can't
get jobs if they don't do specialisation or if they don't do F.R.C.S. (fellow
of royal
college of surgeons). The
countries that have dictatorship, (literacy rate is a separate issue). It's
difficult to
meet the basic needs of
public. Dictatorship destroys country's economy".
Adam saw first time his
father is this mode.
He paused and continued,
"My son when Pakistan came into being, everyone thought Pakistani s bliss
land or
utopia. When goras left us
than black goras came. Those goras had some regard for us but these black goras
don't even ask me. It's my
suggestion, stop following your dreams and illusions. You will ruin yourself.
You
will commit suicide or you
will become mad. Be practical and live like normal people. This world is bitter
than fairy tales world. You
know my son sometime facts are bitter than fiction".
Adam said, "Abba you are
philosopher. You are talking like Rousseau and Voltaire".
"My son when i was
young, my thoughts were like you but these social and economic problems have
changed
me. Now i don't think about
philosophy. I think about earning money to pay bills. Do you know that to pay
bills and expanses, where
does it come from which you call it money? I work up to my arse to meet all the
needs".
Adam said, "You aren't
the only father who does this".
"It's true but it
doesn't mean that you stop thinking that if your parents do their level best to
pay bills and for
your needs and you forget
your responsibilities and duties. By the way my son if you like to do masters
in
philosophy or literature you
are allowed. I am giving you permission because i realises now that if you will
have a degree in any subject
either science or arts. When you will go for the job you will be considered as
a
post graduate. This isn't
sure as well that you get job according to your subject".

Adam was very happy. He got
admission in philosophy. Now his world has been changed. He was drowned in
philosophy. He kept himself
busy in different philosopher's philosophies. Like Aristotle, Socrates and
Hippocrates. All those
philosophers who had irony, satire and sarcasm in their philosophies were his
favourite.
On the other hand still he
was trying to see Nadia behram kharal but he never had success. One day he saw
the
ray of light. Najma begum
knew that Adam is worried about but she was scarred that she will loose Adam so
that was the reason she never
helped him. Today she gave him Nadia's telephone number and told him that
you can phone her at such and
such hours because she is on her own in these hours. Which means her father
or anybody else wasn't close
to her. For Adam it was like winning lottery.
Najma begum said, "Adam
you are wasting your time for illusion. It's same like i am running behind the
illusion. I mean you are
illusion for me. I can feel your pain but when you will achieve (and i am for
sure it's
not possible) what you call
destiny or goal than you will find that it is tasteless".
He wasn't listening.
"Adam you don't know i
am madly in love with you, if i hadn't had certain problems, if i wouldn't have
kids
than i would have married
you. I don't want to spoil my kids. They will take the bad effects. Whatever we
do
together neither i feel
guilty nor need you to. Even if you don't make love with me, for me your
relationship
and nearness is enough. This
sexual intercourse is an ordinary thing. Do you know that when i was thirteen
or
fourteen years old i had many
dreams? I used to read fairy tales. I used to think that i am fairy or
Cinderella.
And a prince charming for
Kooh-e-Qaf will come. He will take me to his Kingdom. When Qadous sahib's
parents asked my hand, my
mother was unable to refuse because she had hard life. She has seen poverty in
her
whole life. She wasn't
willing same for her daughter. She wasn't willing that her daughter should be
beaten by
her husband for little wishes
and desires.
Qadous sahib is very caring
but he is twenty years older than me. It is a compromise because i hadn't had
any
choice. It wasn't the
question of age difference. Painful and sad thing was that they haven't asked
me. They
treated me like an animal. I
was being told that the person whom you are going to marry is working in
Kuwait. On the other hand our
religion gives us freedom of choice. Mallauwis or witnesses ask us thrice,
either we accept this
marriage or not. We can say yes or no but we can't degrade and disrespect our
family,
borthers and father. We
women, we only live for our family's grace and respect. When woman is a sister
or a
daughter she keeps
father's,mother's and brothers's respect and grace. When she is wife she has to
keep the
respect of husband and when
she becomes mother, she has to keep respect of childrens specially sons. In
this
men's world we aren't being
disgraced or disrespect by men. Even sometime women, they degrade, disgrace
and humiliate us.
Sometime i feel guilty
conscience that i have sexual relationship with you. It's not only because of
sexual
satisfaction. I liked you at
first sight. You were different among boys of your age. Tuition was just an
excuse.
I had an oportunity and an
excuse as well. What you think qadous mian doesn't do anything in kuwait. He
doesn't go to prostitutes or
he was very clean and virgin because marriage. I know girls from phillipines
and
russia are call girls. Not
all of them i mean. He goes to them but when he comes on holidays. I keep
myself
ready for him like a well
equipped and proffessional prostitute. He attacks on me like a hungry lion.
Woman
can judge quickly that this
hungry lion had been eating something. Thats why he is running to and fro for
money. Not even him nearly
most of them, i mean husbands try to oblige their wives that they work upto
their
arse for their kids and wife
to earn them luxuriesof life and for the betterment of their kids future.
During sexual activities
women they don't loose anything but become more elegant. Anyway bueaty dies and
woman beauty dies oneday. On
the other hand man can enjoy sex even if he is old but has to keep himself fit
and control his diet.

Adam was carrying her
telephone number in his pocket from last many days but he hadn't have courage
to call
her. One day he did it,
someone was saying from other side, "helloâ.¦helloâ.¦hello" than he
heard, "stupid,
fool" and call was
disconnected. He made up his mind and promised himself that he will definitely
speak to
her today. He was literate,
well educated, and bold and confidant but whenever he phoned her, his all
courage
and boldness went away. Again
he dialled her number. He heard from the other side, "hello"
Adam responded, "Hello
it's me Adam khan chughtai and you".
"I am Nadia Behram
Kharal"
Adam said, "Would you
like to become my friend".
Nadia said, "No! I can't
because i can't even have a girl friend i mean a female friend".
Adam wanted to say something
but from other side receiver was being placed on the cradle.
Next day with fear and scary
feelings he phoned her again, He was very much of scarred of Mr. Kharal that if
he will pick up the phone
it's quite possible he will shoot him. They were well off and rich. Adam's
feelings
were very special for Nadia.
She must be very intelligent, intellectual etc.
He was inventing stories in
his mind and holding the receiver. He heard from other side, "hello"
Adam said, "It's me
Adam".
Nadia said, "I told you
last time that i don't make friendship with boys. I can't even have feminine
friends.
Boys! It's another story. My
father is very strict person. Okay you can call me after five o clock in the
evening, if someone else
picks up the phone. Don't say anything otherwise i will be in trouble. I will
refuse to
accept that this call was for
me than you will be in trouble. It will be considered an obnoxious call. Do you
understand"?
For Adam it was enough that
he had spoken to her. Now he used to call hell quite often. He asked her many
times for date but she refuse
to accept it. It wasn't possible. She was under restrictions. Where she had to
go
zouqe had to accompany her or
her dad or sometime she was being accompanied by dae amma.
Both of them had a little bit
understanding and frankness. They stopped using aap janab (pronouns for
respect). Adam thought Nadia
will be mummy daddy kind of girl but he found her bhatti lohari type. She
simply explainned him. Don't
take it seriously, do not even dream about marrying me; we are only good
friend and we will be good
friends. I made you friend because you are a bit different from others.
Otherwise
there isn't any place for
these things like love, friendship and relationship in my dictionary. When i
come back
from college i don't have any
entertainment. When my mum was alive, she was my friend. Now i feel lonely.
Me and my dae amma
(governess) we live alone. My father goes to work. I repeating this once again,
we are
friends but only on the
telephone. Is that friend? I am not allowed to go anywhere without my father's
permission. We talk each
other on the phone that is enough for me. You will not send anyone to ask my
hand
for marrying. If you will do
this our friendship will be over. I will suffer a little bit but you will
suffer more
than me. Adam promised her
that he will never do such type of mistake with which their friendship will be
ended and both will suffer.

Adam's step mother was
patient of cancer and he was at her last stage. She died before the doctor's
estimated
date. Adam's father started
thinking about his third marriage instead of thinking about his son's marriage.
The
people who were born before
1947, they were very hot, lewd, jovial and lively and Adam's era's youngster
were cold, dry and weren't
willing to marry. Their preferences and priorities were different like
completing
education, finding job and
then marriage.
After Adam's mother's death
Adam and his father, their relationships were becoming worse and worse. So he
decided to leave home. He
discussed with Najma Begum that if he goes to Kuwait. He wasn't willing to go
abroad. He wanted escape. He
phoned Nadia that he doesn't want to live here. She stopped him as well that
not to do that. Everyone
stopped him but he didn't listen to any one.
He had insomnias because
there were many things in his mind. During these days he was thinking about
escape. Why Aryans left metan
and came to India and settled here. They escape from metan. Angles escaped
from Germany and France and
were settled in Irish and Scottish land. Who were Irish? They were Aryans.
Bane Israel (Israelites)
escaped from Egypt to Palestine. Mongols were divided into small tribes. They
used to
loot each other. It was kind
of escape. Babar was being dishonoured, disgraced and scandalized by his uncle
sheebani khan. So he came to
India. Zaheer Uddin Babar defeated Ibrahim lodhi and became the king of
India. The whole world was
like pasture land. Pharaohs were settled on the banks of river Nile.
Mesopotamians were settled
between Euphrates and Tigris. Settlements like mohanjo Daro, Chandodaro and
Harappa were found on the
banks of Indus River, Than Aryans came. For him everyone was nomad and
gypsy. There were in search
of pastures. He was thinking still "might is right's" law.
