Eid is not happening today, yet, in some places it is!

Homecoming

I had friends who were living here alone, and every holidays, they would be anxious to go back to their parents. I never used to understand why exactly. Even when we invited them to come on a Pakitan Tour with us (people living with their families), all they had to say was no, we’d rather [...]

Flash forward two weeks, and [...]

That night…

Sometimes, just when you least expect it, uumm.. not really least expect it.. you do have an inkling of things to screw up yet, given how your day is going so far… something bad happens.
