travelling to hell

by heena mazher (Pakistan)

I didn't expect to find Pakistan

I started my journey from U.A.E to Pakistan Last year. I was excited to visit the homeland, The home country of my father,had to check in at the busiest airport that day along with my family that is ,it sure was going to be wonderful trip as i hoped and what i heared from my dad but to my wonder when I reached Pakistan, I was held along with my family for inquiries as my mother was of different nationality.After we were cleared from the officers we were excepting a receiver ,who was a relative of my father my Uncle that is. He bought a van which is usually called by the local people I.S , but "I probably don't know what it really is called i know is that its just a Van. My Uncle was friendly but a very quiet person we headed out to fathers Village as me and my family was eager to see Village,meet up with all of my fatgers relatives see the beautiful sites and landmarks ,eat lots of new dishes and drinks but to my extent all of my hopes were led down.Reached Village was sure a heck of a bumpy ride ,along woth many cattles seen on road side and there weren't any traffic police to be seen. Finally reached the Village ,smelled lot of fresh and unpleasant smells,met my relatives were nice and sweet at the beginning i assumed but the started to show their true colours later on.Will get to that part later."Where was I ?" ,ooh! yes, came and ate some home country dishes but felt homesick as I wasnt used to eat different kind of foods like spice and oily ones.Took a deep Nap as my journey was 10 hours long.lot of unknown people along with my relatives . Visited lot of cities seen lot landmarks best one so far was the Dam veiw seen from the ferris wheel .And while on my journey met the love of my life. I also had very serious illness occured at that time . i lost some pounds . i Got depressed and sad and lots of emotion going on as the country where I am now residing doesn't respect women and their riggts and always see them as their slaves . I had lots of fight woth the men here bcz of their behaviour towards women ,no equality and not treating women fairly, and me and my sister are still continuing to fight them until our last breath and until women get rights "Equal " rights that is but by the time from where I started my journey i have regreted it most as i was raised brought up in a different Environment and here i am now fighting in hell with devils and demons.While life goes on and so do I and so do you .just remember while you travell or journey anywhere juat have hope and no regrets .Be brave and fight till the end. Anyhow noe the chapter about the Relatives of Pakistan .They are little devils always hording on for news ,gossips and wants to degrade let down anyone who is rising or gaining success .Always bothers everyones around even if it's none of their businesses.They always" light fire in anyone's house. "Its a saying :"greed eats you up".Well I am starting to settle here with my family ,getting around of the surrounding ,trying to see people here as not so devilish rather little goblins ,so far better have I progressed .My sister on Another hand didn't loved it here . She hated the animals who made noise ,pooed everywhere,the villahe people acted like peasents and when we shifted to the city she hated the city people too as they aslo acted like greedy peasents.She haven't seen any Malls , cinema's or any play areas or hang out areas . her Dream is to get educated and het a job and head back to U.A.E.She just slept all the way in the plane in the Van at the Village and back to the city .She just don't bother about anyone except Wifi ,Sleep and lot of foods to eat may it be any type but hygenic.So thats all about my journey and half of my sisters.
