"Go Aiman beta and call Dastaan bhai for dinner" As  Aiman was about to sit on the chair in their dining room, Dastaan's mother  said to her

"What?? Dastaan bhai has come back home? Aiman asked

"yeah, he came this evening" her aunty replied while putting dishes on the dining table.

"Dastaan returned and he hasn't called me back nor has he met me. I have no idea what is this boy up to."Ahmed Akbar, Dastaan's father who was sitting on the main seat said.

"Aree he was tired but Aiman beta he is in his study now, go get him" Sobia Dastaan's mother sat down on her chair.

"jee tai" Aiman headed towards the stairs

"Why would Dastaan bhai return so Early? May he go back quickly, God may he not ask me about our result" Aiman kept praying and murmuring to herself.

"Who is there?" Dastaan asked when Aiman knocked on his study.

"Bhai, it's Aiman" Aiman replied

"Come in, the door is open" Dastaan replied and Aiman came inside his study

Dastaan was sitting on his desk, doing some work on his laptop, wearing his glasses, the bookshelves were on both sides of the room, all filled with books.

"come for dinner," She said

"I am not hungry" He replied without looking at her.

"But bhai I think you should, taya abu seems angry with you," Aiman said coming two steps forward toward his desk.

"Okay you should go, I am coming" He took  off his glasses.

"Dastaan, the last project you were doing isn't yet complete and you started another one? Do you even think this is going to give us any benefit?" His father asked when Dastaan sat down for dinner

Everybody was present at the dining table.

"Baba, do we have to do everything for our benefit? Making all-girls school there is going to benefit generations, and that's enough for me" Dastaan said looking into his father's eyes

"But, I haven't made all this wealth for other people's generations, and nor do I like you taking all your decisions by yourself, you are not going back to that village again, let your employees handle it, and focus on that infrastructure we were already working on," Ahmed Akbar said in an angry note.

"Sorry Baba, but I think I am mature enough to take my decisions, I have already ruined my life enough because of you baba, and as far as your wealth is concerned so I am not even taking a single penny from your wealth, not even a single, it's all that my company has ever earned, anything for my country Baba" Dastaan stood up

"I am not hungry," He said and started moving towards the stairs

"Dastaan beta sit and have your dinner," His mother said

Dastaan didn't reply.

Fatima, Aiman, and Aahil exchanged glances with each other.
