Chapter 68

"So…" He changed position in his chair "…What if this is all true?"

"What…?" They said in a course; they were startled by his question.

"Yeah… Think about it…" He paused "…We cannot see god, but we know he is there. What if just like that everything about this Armageddon is true and world is going to be destroyed in mere fifty years or so."

Dr. Shibli gave them some time to think about it and then continued.

"Let's assume, for the sake of argument that this is all true, then you and I will most likely be dead by the time Armageddon arrived. We have no future here on earth or in space. Even if we decide to go in space at our age, we will just be burden and a dead body to be dealt with. Right?"

They both nodded.

"But think about Hussain who has just turned nineteen. Right?"

"Hm."
