CHAPTER 34

On the other hand, in Asia.

Its weekend.

Aliyah go home to her hometown.

She is walking on the seashore together with her grandmother Elsa and his Uncle Peter.

Her Uncle Peter is pushing a cart containing a large fish container.

Her Uncle peter is about to carry it on the market place.

Aliyah and Elsa will accompany him to help him sell the fish.

But before they reached the way to market someone approached them.

He is interested to buy all the fishes that his Uncle Peter is carrying.

The man wearing a white t-shirt and a blue jeans with matching sunglasses.

The man is tall, dark and …never mind!

He looks like a foreigner. Maybe he has a lot of money because he wants to buy all the fishes.

Aliyah noticed that the man is so talkative.

He asked a lot of things to Elsa and Peter.

As if he is curios with their way of living in this village.

Then after a while he took the money from his wallet and bought all the fishes.

In gratitude, Elsa invite him to have lunch in their house nearby the seashore.

The man agreed without a second thought.

Then they walk towards the house.

Aliyah is just listening to their conversations until they reached the house.

Aliyah and her uncle wife’s Clara cook their lunched while the man, Peter and Elsa continue chatting to

each other.

This man is Seth, the private investigator.

He is now doing the part his job, fulfilling the part of their plan to send back Haya- who is also Aliyah-

back to her own country.

Then the lunch is cook.

Aliyah and Clara serve the lunch.

They eat lunch together with Seth.

The chatting continues.

Until the man talks about an overseas job that will about to open in his country.

She offers the job indirectly to Aliyah.

Then, suddenly Elsa asked Aliyah if she wants to apply for that job overseas.

“Aliyah I think you are fit for that job. Do you want to apply?” Elsa asked.

But Aliyah just refused because he want to apply on the job that Almir offer her.

She made an excuse to her grandmother by saying;

“I already applying for an overseas job that my friend offers to me.” Aliyah said.

Aliyah’s answer causes them to panic. If that would be the case, their plan will be ruin.

So each of them throw question to Aliyah almost at the same time.

“What job?” Elsa asked.

“Whose friend?” Peter asked.

“On what country?” Seth asked.

“Warehouse staff in Bosnia.” Aliyah answered.

Seth was relieved at least Aliyah will going back to Bosnia.

So all he have to do is to know when her flight is and where in Bosnia she will going to work.

After an hour they are finished eating their lunch.

Aliyah volunteer to wash the dishes.

When Aliyah was gone to the kitchen Seth talked to Elsa and Peter in private.

He asked them to inform him when the fight of Aliyah is and where in Bosnia she will going.

Elsa and Peter agreed to Seth.

Then after a few minutes Seth left.

When Seth reached home he immediately call Haris.

Seth informed him about the result of his job.

Then he explained to Haris his new plan;

Then they agreed that Seth will just follow Aliyah when she is going back to Bosnia to ensure that they

will still get in touch to her when she arrived there.

After Aliyah finished washing the plates he immediately go to her room and check all the documents

that she have so that she can apply for the job that Almir offers to him.

Aliyah decided to prepare all the documents that she had to apply for the job that Almir -(Atif)- is

offering.

Then Aliyah decided to chat with Almir.

Atif is driving back to the city of Zenica from Mostar.

Atif is in deep thoughts and still feels the anger for Monika and Aleksa.

He still can't believe that he encountered again his mother's friend Monika after a long time had passed

-after that evening when he was a little boy and Monika intentionally left him on the street to cast away

him out of their house; after that evening he started wandering on the city streets, homeless.

Because Atif remembers his past, he finds himself driving towards his old dwelling place.

When he reached the place near the footbridge he parked his car.

Then he stepped outside the car.

He slowly walked towards the footbridge.

He climbed on the stairs until he reached the floor on the top.

There he stands near the railing and looks down on the busy street.

Up there he can see the old fast food on the corner of the street.

Outside the fast food he can see some street children getting some thrown away food on the garbage,

eating it.

Atif remembers himself when he was a little boy. He was like that before, that's why he knew what the

feeling of being in their situation was.

Remembering those things, Atif is holding back his tears.

He walks slowly, going down the footbridge.

Then he finds himself on a fast food counter, ordering almost all the foods available.

Then he made a request to the fast food management that all those foods that he ordered were to be

given away to the street children out on the nearby streets.

The management agreed and started giving away the food to the street children.

The manager didn't wonder why Atif is doing this and he didn't dare to ask any question to Atif. He just

followed what Atif said.

Because it is not the only time the manager sees Atif around their fast food.

The manager remembers who Atif is.

The manager knew that Atif is the little boy who is homeless before and is always sitting outside the C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

fast food every Friday evening of the week, waiting for his friend to arrive. He is always waiting for that

pretty girl who is always around here every Friday of the week.

Then after a long while the manager didn't see Atif around, as well as the pretty girl.

Years passed by and then one day the manager saw an expensive car parked outside.

And then he saw a young lad step outside the car. He stayed there standing beside his car. Looking at

the fast food for almost half an hour.

That day the manager wondered who that young lad was. Then he remembers that he looks like the

little boy and he assumes that probably that is the little boy returning back.

After that day he always saw Atif go back to this place but the manager didn't dare to talk or asked Atif

about these things.

After giving some food to street children, Atif left the place.

Because it is getting dusk he decided to go home.

Dusk generally refers to the transition from sunset to nighttime, and the term is often used as another

word for evening twilight.
