CHAPTER 48

　　Morning came faster than expected. Amir pace around the room continuously waiting for his father to come down as they’re leaving together. He’s eager to get it done and be free from the nervousness that was killing him. He remembered his mother’s words about believing in himself that he’ll do well, and it kind of gave him strength.

　　“Okay, let’s do this” he muttered breathing in and out. Just then, his father’s footsteps transpire from the stairs.

　　“Shall we son?” he said. Amir took in a sharp breathe once again before answering.

　　“Yes, Dad. Mom wish me well” he said to the woman who ambled behind her husband. She places a small kiss to his forehead while saying a prayer to him for Allah’s protection.
