"Arey beta pr Rehman ko to batana parega na? Akhir uska beta hi to madad kar raha h hamari."

(But daughter, we need to inform Rehman about our departure since his son is the one helping us.)

Tabrez told libah who was busy packing stuff for themselves which wasn't much, arranging in a small worn out but clean duffle bag that maybe has seen better days.

"arey baba hamare pas zyada time nahi h unki taraf jane ko, gadi bs aati hi hogi lene hume or vaise bhi unhone taya baba ko bata hi dia hoga abtak."

Libah tried to assured her father who  was feeling inconsiderate by leaving like this without informing anything to his own brother but he reluctantly agreed to what Libah said. After all Roshan is their son, he must have informed them already.

Suddenly she heard the knock on her old worn out door. Her face brighten up while checking the time on the wall clock and she smiled in excitement.

It's already 6 am!

The car is on time as instructed by Roshan!

"Baba chalein! Gaddi b aagai sadi"  She exclaimed enthusiastically.

(Father lets go! Driver hàs arrived)

Tabrez chuckled seeing her daughter so happy and excited after so many days. He knew she has been worrying about him days and nights and now it gave him peaceful to finally see her all happy and excited. And also she is thrilled to go to the city for the first time in her life.

Libah pulled their bags down while helping her father to wear his slippers before running to open the door for the driver with a huge smile.
She is  feeling nervous but the excitement to meet Roshan, travelling to the city and hope of her father getting good treatment is helping to ignore her bursting nerves.

"Hello ji!"

She greeted the driver with a blinding smile on her face who is an elderly man and smiled back at her.

"Chalne k liye ready h Ma'am aap?" He asked with his polite smile.
(are you ready to leave ma'am?)

Ma'am ?

"Please no, Ma'am mt bolein please. Ap humse bade hein."  She shyly told that elderly man not to call her that.

(Please no, don't call me Ma'am. You're an elder)

She felt awkward, no one has given her respect like this, especially calling her ma'am. She only has seen it in movies and her real life is far from it.

She immediately went inside to fetch her luggage and father. She was about to lift her small luggage but the chauffeur beat her to it taking her off guard.

When did he come inside?

She didn't even notice him trailing behind her out of excitement but she felt more embarrassed watching him lifting their luggage that didn't weigh much.

"Arey, main khu..khud kar lungi.." she tried to take it away but the chauffeur denied immediately.

"Please Ma'am, warna sir mujhe naukari se nikal denge." The chauffeur told her politely and she felt awkward again but still nodded in compliance because she doesn't want that poor man to lose his job because of her and went to help her father to walk to the car but one thing suddenly bothered her.

(Please ma'am or else sir will kick me out from the job.)

How big thing is Roshan exactly?

How does he have the power to kick someone from job?
