Peer-e-Kamil(S.A.W) First Chapter
The thirteen-year-old boy was engrossed in a music show on
TV when
Tyyaba peeped in. She looked at her son somewhat
uncertainly, and
entered the room, irritated.
=What‘s going on?‘
=I‘m watching TV,‘ he replied without looking at her.
=Watching TV. For God‘s sake! Are you aware that your exams
have
started?‘ Tyyaba asked, standing in front of him.
=So what?‘ he said, annoyed.
=So what? You should be in your room with your books, not
sitting here
watching this vulgar show,‘ Tyyaba scolded him.
=I have studied as much as I need to. Now please move out of
my way.‘
His tone reflected his irritation.
=All the same go in and study.‘ Tyyaba stood her ground.
=No. I will not get up, nor will I go in and study. My
studies and my
papers are my concern, not yours.‘
=If you were concerned about your studies, would you be
sitting here?‘
=Step aside.‘ He ignored Tyyaba‘s comment and rudely shooed
her
away.
=I‘m going to talk to your father today.‘ Tyyaba tried a
threat.
=You can talk to him for all I care. What will happen? What
is he going
to do? I‘ve told you that I‘ve already prepared for my
exams, so then
what‘s your problem?‘
=This is your final examination. You should be concerned
about it.‘
Tyyaba softened her tone.
=I am not a four-year-old who you need to nag. I have a
better
understanding of my responsibilities than you so don‘t
pester me with
your silly advice.‘
=Your exams are on. Pay attention to your studies. You
should be in
your room. I will have a word with your father!‘
=What rubbish!‘ Standing up, he flung the remote control at
the wall
and stomping his feet, left the room. Tyyaba, helpless and
humiliated,
watched him go.
