Thousands of soldiers were killed in two World Wars even though
they were armed to the teeth. When the dead soldier was brought home,
his wife was choked under great emotion. The murderer was jailed for life.
She was in the dump when she remembered her past.
The ill-fated airplanes bound for Indira Gandhi Airport in India,
which Columbus had been in quest of. India should be indebted to Gandhi
for its unification.
Shes in the airplane. The murderer is on parole for fifteen days.
Discontentment is brewing in her heart.
Shes Heart but rather called Hater. Shes all ears to the stewardess
announcement. Prohibition is not in force in her hometown, London. She is
in the last lingering of her life. She was lapped in luxury when suddenly
one day her husband joined the war. A thoughtful man is always his own
man. The life of a soldier is always at a stake on the battlefield. The poor
child, George was orphaned after the death of his father. He was in the
vicinity of Oxford University. Lecturers and politicians. Some politicians are
in league with criminals. But she left him in Malaysia.
A riot is in the offing. She is ill at ease because of all of that. The
criminal is not at large. She was at loss first. She was at her wits end.
Humanitarian in her heart is on wane. Her journey is in full swing. To her
after revenge will be sweet and she will be in high spirits. She will be in
the chair of her confrontation with the murderer.

II
Fresh morning air is conducive to health. She feels like she was
endowed with another chance of life. She remembered Malaysia. The
endeavor of climbing Broga Hill was fraught with danger. She was devoid
of common sense that time. Useless life. Worthless life. Suicide. That was
her target before she knew the criminal is somewhere out there. To obey
the laws of the nation is incumbent on all citizens, but not to her. Bad
people are pernicious to good character.
She, who was replete with joy and happiness is now replaced by just
and selfishness. She is now proficient in law. This revenge is on the cards.
World is all Greek to her. She is after him. The murderer will sure be dead
against her plan. She will not at loggerheads with her foe. He will just be
left bereft of soul. Isnt that simple? She is too covetous of his life. She
feels his life is derogatory to her.
 Again, she bathed in tears at the loss of her husband. She is not
acquainted with the guy but she is enamored with his bloody soul. She is
addicted to avenge and will be accustomed to it. She is really prejudiced
against her opponents. She is infatuated with blood. He will be foiled in his
entire life. He will be deprived of his whole life. He will pay the penalty.
Hell face hell! He was exonerated from the law for a while, but not the
upcoming treachery.

You are a soldier

A rising sun
Wait for the heyday
Look far away
And believe in yourself
You names on a shelf
A legend
You are a soldier
The chosen one
Bring back the heyday
Look far away
With respect and decay
Forever well stay
Together
And singing life is all that we need
But the lies is all that we see
Raise your hands high up in the sky
Missing secrets you will find
In your heart

III
In her heart. Yes, in her heart. It is in her heart. Hearts heart.
Locked heart. Knockknockbut locked. No one. Nobody. Silence.

Do you know whats worth fighting for?

When its not worth dying for
Does it take breath away?
And you feel yourself suffocating
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide
Did someone break your heart inside?
 Youre in ruins

When youre at the end of the road

And you lose all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on broken glass
And the hangover doesnt pass
Nothings ever build up to last
Youre in ruins!

Did you try to live on your own?

When you burn down the house and home
Did you stand too close to the fire?
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from the stone
When its time to live and let die
And you cant get another try
Something inside this heart is died
Youre in ruins

Exempted from paying penalty? Impossible. She is sick of waiting.

But now she is cocksure of getting her aim. Jordan, her late husband, once
said before his dead that he was worthy of army. Bullshit! Rats! And the
criminal, acquitted of the charge of murder, too is pretty nonsense.
She recalls something; Pakistan is hostile to its neighboring country
India. Pakistan is notorious for its Kashmir, Earths Paradise. Pakistan is
impertinent to India. She is now aloof from her hometown. She arrives at
the hotel and when she opens the door, books were lying at sixes and
sevens. She

IV
She was used at home in Christianity. She remembered that when
she sees a King James Bible which puts her in her lowest ebb. Heart was in
the good books of everyone around her because of her bright past.
Suddenly, a loud bang is heard. An accident happened outside the
hotel. Through the window she can see the accident victim is on the verge
of death. She really hopes that the guy is the guy but her heart says not
to be in clouds. One must be true to ones words. But now she is dog tired.
But to think of the scattering books on the floor before, the
perpetrator must be in a tearing hurry. Hmmmjust thinking about
tearing. Do the perpetrator searched something in the books or have
taken a book with him? Is it related to the accident just now? Blabla
bla...Deduction? She is not that type of person to think deeply and drain
her brain. She decided not to have a hand in her exploited mind.
She falls asleep like having both hands clean. Yeah, still clean. Still
aiming the target. Besides, she must be faster as she has a memory like
sieve. Before she forgets about everything she better makes a step.
She still has pity for her son, George who has old head on young
shoulders. She has full confidence in him.
She will not have her heart in her mouth. She has a burning desire
to get her target. Plan. Simple plan. That is all she needs. Some people
have one thing and to show another. So do her. She has her eyes filled
with tears again. This will not happen if Jordan kept his promise to her
forever like what he said when spring began.

Summer has come and passed

The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Yes. That is the end for September. She wakes up next morning, the
first October

Like my fathers come to pass

Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what Ive lost
Wake me up when September ends

There, George, celebrating his fourteenth birthday with his friends

while listening to his favorite song from his favorite band. To him, the band
is evergreen just like their name, Green Day. The song is always played
every time he celebrates his birthday even though his friends are kind of
bored of it. Yeah, to be an open secret, his birthday is on the first of
October. It is 01/10/01. His lucky number. His charm. His amulet. He
always wanted to have his fathers say in everything he does. But he has
a clear idea that he is an orphan. No father. No mother. Used to meet his
mother but she ran away after his father died. He thinks she must have
committed suicide somewhere on earth.
He thinks that Wake Me Up When September Ends was his
mothers lullaby for him when he was just a child. He just cant get it. Why
that song? Why not just a bloody nursery rhymes for a kid? Ah he has
nothing to do with his parent anymore. Only one phrase from his mother
that he remembered:
Have a heart and help the needy!
But why he remembered such thing, is not rational to his head.

VI
He is not a prince with a heart of gold. But, one thing that
protects him from bad things; he has a skin like rhinoceros. That is why he
always stick to the same song, same date (absolutely, that is his
birthday!). Deep in his heart, he has half a mind to hunt his mother and
solves other things that puzzle him. The remaining of his parent is just like
a riddle. Hunting is in his blood. He has not a red face for his past or his
future.

A study in scarlet, eh? Why shouldnt we use a little art

jargon? Theres the scarlet thread of murder running through the
colorless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it,
and expose every inch of it.

Anyway, he still has a long way to go. He has a natural bent for
deduction, like Sherlock Holmes, maybe lower in knowledge. But he knows
he has no time to lose. He has roving eyes that make him quite a good
observer that makes him seems to have a sixth sense, but no wicked
tongue such Holmes. He has faith in God, just like his mother.

Like my fathers come to pass

Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends

He has on a plain T-shirt and khaki pants. The time is at close

quarters. He began hunting at a tender age. He progressed by leaps and
bounds. His ability grows on the nail.
His life was on thin ice yesterday. He gave bribe under the counter
but it was just a rumor in the air. What do you think? On no account will he
be allowed to leave the country. The Indian welcomed him with open
arms. So, the rumor must not be true. He becomes rich by hook or crook
there.
 VII
George fell in love with Judi at the first blush. He is caught
between Scylla and Charybdis. By virtue of love, his world turned upside
down. With baited breath, he tries to forget her but for her help, she would
have failed. The moon expands by degrees. The love expands by decrees.
Of God. He just hopes that he can forget her by return of post. Have you
fallen in love by any chance? Still loving the same person to this day?
Now, do you understand Hearts heart? I am very sure you can cope with
this emotional trap. Not crap, okay? You will go for love through fire and
water. Through foul and fair. You only get one heart on hand. Do not waste
it. Never. Ever. Do not cry at the eleventh hour. When falling in love, both
of lovers will be in the same boat. One should love others in act, speech
and thought. Love is situated and placed in camera. In fine, follow what
your heart manifests. How ironic.
When he sees Judi, he is in high feather. Although it is in hot water,
everything seems to be cooled down. One does not know what is in store
for one. In memoriam of her, he places a bunch of flowers with her picture
on the ground. She was missing in the woods with an old cabin rags.
At his own risk, he finds Judi not just because he loves her, but she
can lead a path to find his mother. To his surprise, he found an old woman
named Heart who lives in the cabin mentioned before. But the old woman
suffers amnesia. She has got nothing in her mind; including where on
earth Judi goes. Her memory can fly in no time.

VIII
Heart is found. Isnt that the most important? No. He flew there to
find one. But now there are two important persons to him right now. Judi
and Heart. Yes. This is a love story. But not Georgeo and Judiet. Its George
and Judi. They were still at variance before. And now he realizes that he
loves her very much. He becomes like this by dint of love. For all his
wealth, he is not happy. Its her who made him happy.
He believes she is at deaths door. He believes Grim got something
to do with her missing. Oh, not Grim the Reaper but Grim the spy, the
murderer, of his father. There is a missing link somewhere. But he
remained faithful to God to the last. He opened his bible to read it when
Heart yells out of the blue:

KJV! KJV!

Do you mean King James Version, mom?

Tears! Tears!
 What, mom? I cant understand. What are you trying to say?

Tear dear! Im not your mom! Ive not had a single child. Who are
you, claiming to be my son?

Her amnesia just cant get enough. Its getting worse day by day.
Time over time.
He opens the book randomly. Its page 1015. Revelation.

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and
there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither
shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed
away.
(Revelation 21:4)

Tears? This verseOh, I got it. Before you flew here, mom, it was
almost every time you recite this verse. This old bible was used by you at
that time, when dads dead body came home. This page was always left
opened. Thats why when I opened this book randomly, it is on this page.

IX
No coincidence there if you got a logical mind here
He points towards his head, proudly.

And that also proves that Im your son, mom. Remember this
bible?

Are you really George? O my Lord, as thy soul liveth, my Lord,

I am the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto the Lord.
For this child I prayed; and the Lord hath given me petition which
I asked of him. Therefore also I have lent him to the Lord; as long
as he liveth he shall be lent to the Lord. And he worshipped the
Lord there.

1 Samuel 1:26-28, he exclaimed.

How on earth

I memorize some quotes from the book, mom. I really miss you.
 Oh George. Im really sorry for abandoning you all those years.

All those days

Through my window, watching
All those years
For your shadow, waiting
And at last I see your sight
Now that I see you

I love you, son.

I love you more.

I love you most.

The bible. I know it will come in handy some time. And it is this
moment. Future, who knows? Anyway, it is your memory. I wouldnt toss it
just because Ive memorized it. Even a novel reader wont toss his novel
even though he has remembered all the stories and quotes. God send me
to you, mom.

No, God send me to you. Ive abandoned you all this time. But not
this moment. Ill find Judi. If she makes you happy, Ill do anything to get
her back. You do love her, son. I can see it through your eyes. This is
mothers instinct. Law of nature.

Thanks, mom. But we have no idea where she had been.

All is well, son. All is well.

X
Keep your faith in God.

Thou tallest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy

bottle: are they not in thy book?
(Psalms 56:8)

Bottle? Book? I think I remember something. Books were scattering

on the floor. I woke up and spilt water from a bottle into the bible. There
was a page full of scribbling and sketching all over erased by the water
except a few phrases. Maybe thats what the perpetrator trying to find. I
guess I still keep that bible. KJV. Yes, King James. Here it is.
 Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter Zi-
on, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no
rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
(Lamentations 2:18)

Its a clue of something. A dam. Leaked dam. Isnt it? Tears run
down like a river on the wall. Sounds like Mullaperiyar dam, right? she
jerks.

Mullaperiyar dam? Is it leaked? Im still new in India, mom.

Its an old dam since the conquest of British in this country before
its independence. Some wants the dam to be destroyed and be rebuilt
again. Its risky. However, some opposed. Thats the issue.

But in what term is it related with Zion?

Its your father. He was used to be called by that name in army.

Zion? Whys that name? Even its writing seems to be like lion but
the pronunciation is far from lion.

Its a mountain, son. Your father was a very high-spirited man. He

had been to that mountain before with his army.

But, mom, why didnt you realize all of this before? Why now?

I was too stressed at that time. Finding your fathers killer. Yes, I
remember that time. It was a day before your seventh birthday. There was
an accident outside of the hotel I stayed.

It was the first October of 2008.

No, its the thirtieth September.

I mean the newspaper, mom. We should find it. That article.

XI
Im sure that phrase:

Let not the apple of thine eye cease

 is a bomb warning. And that accident you saw

I heard.

A loud bang?

Indeed.

Where can we get old newspaper here, mom? Thats our only hope.
If we can get settle this, Im sure we can find Judi.

It has been a day since Judi is missing. What makes it more

suspicious is the letter she left behind. Its not her writing. Its got to be
someone else.

In the letter, it says:

I WONT BE AROUND YOU ANYMORE. DONT FIND ME.

DONT EVEN TRY.

It is black ink. Judi will never use black ink. She only uses blue pen.
Thats why he knew it was not her. Not really the handwriting. He only
knew her for a couple of months. Why would he know her handwriting?
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
(Psalms 126:5)

Grim, that reaper who took away his fathers life must pay
everything. Is he the one who sows in tears? No idea.

For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall lead
them, unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all
tears from their eyes.
(Revelation 7:17)

Wipe our tears, God. We really need your help, George murmured.

Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them
tears to drink in great measure.
(Psalms 80:5)
 That night they stay in the cabin. Heart does not even know how
they can get old newspapers. That night is very dark. Clouds cover the full
moon. It is cold. The clouds shed their tears. Tears. One liter of tears.

Later that morning, they get up early in the morning to the town,
Mumbai. George searches on the internet about the article. Someone from
Yahoo! Answers gives him two websites which are
http://www.timesofindia.com/ and http://www.hindustantimes.com/ .

XII
Nothing was found. In the articles he found, it stated that a mere
simple accident happened in front of Hilton New Delhi/Janakpuri Hotel.
Yes. That is the hotel. He saw it on the cover of the bible that Heart
showed to her. But nothing related to bomb was stated. He is worried to
death. What is going on? Wait a minute Hilton hotel. Bomb. Reputation.
That makes sense.

Mom, we gotta move!

According to his deduction, Hilton hotel is in the public eye. It may

be behind-the-scenes accident. To protect their reputation. If people heard
a bomb appeared, they will be paranoid. The hotel will be losing its profit
gradually.
To the hotel.
George found himself in the thick of severe fighting. He was kicked
out from the hotel for asking such question. He asks Heart her room
number which she stayed before.

How am I supposed to remember?

That is true. Why should she remember such thing? Later, he sneaks
into the hotel and go to the counter. He asks if theres any room that had
no bible or had been stolen around thirteen years ago.
The worker laughs out loud. Silly question. The worker asks if he
looks like he has been a thirteen-years-old worker in this hotel. Thats a
long period. But he is lucky. The worker says that the bible is not replaced
yet because in this country, Christianity is less to be the citizens religion
or beliefs. There are many Hindu and Muslim. It is Room 82. And its
empty. What a luck! Errafter a small fighting and kicking. He checks in
the hotel for a night.
Yeah. Closer to the ground. Still can reach the sound if a bomb
explodes down there.
He cannot sleep. He is really worried. A feeling that he cannot get
rid. He gets out of the room and collides with an old guy. A worker.
 XIII
The old guy revealed everything about the accident. George gets a
conclusion. The guy who died in the accident was the one who scattered
the books in the room. After he found the clue in the bible, he took the
bomb in the room to explode that dam. But why Room 82? Something he
cant understand. But that was Grims plan. He was insane. George read in
the article he found in the internet that that accident was named The Red
Caps because there was red bottle cap found near the corpse and the
corpse himself was wearing a red cap. Heart also remembered that the
bottle was red. The bottle of water which she spilt on the bible. Even
though the corpse could not be identified, he is very sure that the guy was
not Grim. The corpse is far younger to be Grim.

Mom, why did you choose Room 82 when you checked in the hotel
thirteen years ago?

It was our memory, George. Both Jordan and I. Our home in London
was number 82. We were married on the eighth of February too.

2000?

Yes. Why, son?

Nothing. I just thought that that was too much coincidence in this
case. How can he know your wedding date? And why must he choose
Room 82? But the illogical part here is he chose before you!

Another question, mom! Did you see fathers face when they sent
you his corpse?

I dont really remember, son.

Based on what the old guy told him, he concluded that it was a
plastic explosive. Time bomb. It was based on the color of the smoke. He
deducted it was a time bomb because of how the guy rushed without ever
thinking of leaving the bottle cap behind.
The old guy said that this must be the work of terrorist as he
thought it was. Yeah. Evil deeds are done on pretence of religion. Yes. He
was referring to the Muslim of 9/11 as Islam and Hinduism conquer the
beliefs of India citizen. He also told George about the murmur that there
was once a Muslim soldier who was also an Indian spy who betrayed the
country named Ghulam Tahrim. George feels like that name was familiar.
No idea. He also does not care about Muslim, Islam or terrorist. It may be
real, fake or conspiracies.
 When he thinks about the accident, he feels something strange
about it.

XIV
If the accident happened around thirteen years ago, why till now
theres nothing happens to the dam? Is the dead guy really him? Or is it
true that the dam was his target? What for? Just playing around, toying
with others people lives? The closest possible reason is to make havoc in
this country. He maybe hated this country. That is why he betrayed. Wait!
He is Ghulam Tahrim. A Muslim who killed his father? He was used to
encounter many Muslim in his country, Malaysia, but not this shit! His
perception towards Muslim changed 180 degree.
It is four oclock in the morning. He decided to take a look at the
dam. When he arrived there, it is still dark but a few minutes later, he
heard Athan. It is Subuh. The dawn.
He heard somewhere splashing water sound and reciting. He
believes that there is someone else there. There must be someone
performing prayer somewhere. The reciting keep going until the sun rises
above the horizon.

Subhanallah!

Whos there? George asked.

Just a servant of our God, a voice cried.

Our? I dont think we share the same belief.

Theres only one God.

But He has a son and his company, Holy Ghost.

No, hes not. Read your bible again, son. There are verses that
state that theres only one God. And Isa was not His son.

You must be a Muslim. A terrorist.

If you find something wrong with the verses in the bible, read this.

An old guy appears from the shadowy side and hands him a book,
Quran.
 But its Arabic, I cant read this.

Quran is cared by God till the Judgment Day. It will not be spoilt by
mans hand.

XV
Its because its maintained in its original language. Thats why it
can never be spoilt. And theres a lot of men who memorize the whole
verses and chapters of Quran. If its translated into many languages, then
it will be spoilt by its meaning. If theres a translated Quran, you may see
that it comes with its original text in Arabic, just like what youre holding.
George gazes on the book in his hand. When he is just trying to
object the old mans saying about bible versions, the old man disappears
in to the thin air. Poof! Gone. No one else. Just himself and the morning
sun. Bright daylight.

You went so soon

So soon
You left so soon
So soon
I have to move on
Cuz I know its been too long

He does not know what to do. He loves Jesus in his heart of hearts. It
is the calling maybe. God wants him to be exposed with cruelty of Islam
by reading that book.
He comes back to the hotel, totally forgot about the dam. Heart asks
him what book that he holds. He says it is Quran.

Quran?! Are you nuts? Do you wanna convert to Islam? After all of
this, memorizing the bible?

I dont know, mom. The old man who gave me this, I felt like Ive
seen him before. His eyes are familiar. I dont think hes an Indian based
on his accent. And I dont think God spoke to me, he burst into laughter.

Anyway he read with English translation, not Hindi, Tamil or

Malayalam. I think hes a British, just like us. Yes, his accent was British,
he continues.

What else did you talk to him?

Nothing at all. I havent had time at all. He disappeared on the eve
of my mouth opened.
 Is there any possibility that there are clues in that book?

XVI
Who knows?

He opened a chapter called Maryam (Mary).

Those were some of the prophets on whom ALLAH did

bestow His Grace of the posterity of Adam, and of those who We
carried (in the Ark) with Noah, and of the posterity of Abraham
and Israel of those whom We guided and chose. Whenever the
signs of (ALLAH) Most Gracious were rehearsed to them, they
would fall down in prostrate adoration and in tears.
(Quran 19:58)

Hearts eyes are filled with tears. They are astonished by the
beautiful words. Heart fall down to the ground, putting her head, arms,
knees and feet to the ground, just like what Moses did to show his
gratitude to God, El-Shaddai. George is speechless. His heart vibrates and
his body is shaken. His eyes are watery and he feels a sudden peace and
strength at the same time. Strange.
We believed in the same God, he whispers.

El Shaddai, El Shaddai
El elyon na adonai

This song repeats in his head. Is this what God destined for him?
Repent? Wait! Is that the reason why the dam is not exploded? Grim has
repented!
Who is that old man he found at the dam? Yeah, the dam! He has
not checked it yet. After he met the old man, he went straight to the hotel.
The answer is at the dam. He pays for another night to stay in the hotel.
The next morning, he goes to the same spot to search what he
supposed to search yesterday. As expected, the old man is there, doing
the same things over and over again. Before the old man disappears
again, he catches him by the collar and asks:

XVII
Who the hell are you? You are Grim, arent you?

Wow! You seem to know my past. I was Grim, but not anymore.
 It still cant change anything! Youre a murderer! Repenting cant
bring back my fathers life. Im sure youre also Ghulam Tahrim, right?

Ive got so many names, son. Thats my name now. Ive sinned for
years and I want to return to God.

Of course you got so many names. Youre a spy and a betrayer!

No son. Ghulam Tahrim is my name after I converted to Islam. Grim

was my name when I was a spy and a betrayer as you said just now. But I
was. I was. No more.

Whos your son, killer? Cut the crap!

You remind me of my son, George, whom I left when I went to the

war. He is in your age.

George? Hows that possible? George mutters.

So do you know Jordan? In army he was called Zion, George asks.

I see that you have a lot of information about me. Never thought
that they will send an apprentice to me.

Answer me!

I am the one who you meant just now. I told you Ive got so many
names. I am Zion. I am Jordan. I am British. But thats old stories.

Dont mess with me!

George jerks and punches Grims face with a speed of wind.

Stop! Stop, son! Its the truth! Heart goes out from her hiding
place.

Mom, what are you doing here?

Hes your father. I still recognize him.

Heart? Is that you? And you George? This is George?

 Yes, dear. I thought you were dead, Jordan, she tries to hug Jordan
but he avoids her.

Whats wrong with you, Jordan? Am I that disgusting? Is that why

you never returned home?

XVIII
Its not like that, Heart. Its a long story to tell. When I was in the
war, I was badly injured but was saved by a family. They lived in poverty
but they were happy. Although I was their enemy, they never hurt me and
always treat me nicely. They were very kind and strong believers in their
religion. Yes, their religion is now mine too, Islam. At first, I thought this
Islam promotes terrorism with its Jihad and whatsoever but I was wrong.
We were wrong. Whole world was wrong. Islam is a religion of peace. As
Id converted, I was told that our marriage was cut off. Thats why I sent a
corpse with distinguished face to deceive you. And I told them to inform
you that Ive been killed by a guy named Grim. Im so sorry.

But I never forget you. Thats why Ive never married again. As
soon as I heard that you wept on my death, I was glad that you loved me
that much. I will marry you again if youre willing to accept this beautiful
religion. I believe youve had read the Quran, son. That what brings you
here, right?

George is still in shock and speechless.

Asyahadu an la ilaha illallah wa asyahdu anna

Muhamadarrasulullah.

The two of them follow Jordans words.

Theres no God except ALLAH and Muhammad is the messenger of

ALLAH.

They followed Jordan (Ghulam Tahrim) to the house which he stays

with the family he mentioned before. There, surprisingly he meets Judi.

Judi? Why are you here?

Judi is dumbfounded by the presence of George.

This is my home in my hometown, George. I lived with my family

and Uncle Ghulam when I was a kid. How do you think our poor family can
speak English so well? Its because of Uncle Ghulam here; hes a former
British army. I fell in love with you but I knew my father wont let another
guy from another religion becomes a part of our family. I must leave from
your side.
XIX
Assalamualaikum, Judi. Call me Abdul Jabbar. Abdul Jabbar bin
Ghulam Tahrim. Im your Uncle Ghulams son.

Will youmarry me?

She is flabbergasted by both his action and question. He is now

Abdul Jabbar. Heart is now Qalbi. Everything seems to be simple right now.

YesI will.

One thing he wonders; why must his father tried to bomb the dam?
Ghulam explains everything. It was the family who was at risk as they live
near the dam. As I owed them, I intended to blow the dam up as a protest
to the government. I wanted to do it without they knew. Once they knew
about it, they became hindrance. Because of their act of random kindness,
I learnt about Islam. I read a verse;

Nor in those who when they came to you that you might
carry them, you said: I cant find that on which to carry; they
went back while their eyes overflowed with tears on account of
grief for not finding that which they should spend.
(Quran 9:92)

Its just like prediction of whats happening now.

Indeed.

Two brides and grooms are made. Old hearts are one again. They
live in India for a couple of years. Later, they fly back to their hometown,
London. Abdul Jabbar and Judi have their honeymoon in Malaysia, as he
was a citizen before, after his mother left him before she left to India. His
belongings are still there. And his friends too. It is the first October again.
His birthday.

Summer has come and passed

The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my fathers come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends

-THE END-
