''Mothers are special angels created by God. Being a child to a wise mother is a gift of his. Never hurt you're parents or abandon them when they're old. They expect love nothing else from us. And they always aspire for our good health and success....
Her love is a magical protection on us, if it doesn't cover we will be nobody in this world. So please love and care them....''

I was driving smoothly all these time,I heard my stomach churning with a ticklish feeling suddenly. My cheeck felt hot eventhough the air condition is high. A mixed emotion of burried love and regrets stabbing my heart equally that I couldn't specify how to feel, horrible or happy.

My fingers are becoming week, legs are becoming numb, my mind is overwhelming with terrible memories of my past, something stomped my heart heavily, I felt suffocating and tried to breath, I stopped the car with great difficulty and jumped out at once.

I felt the lingering cool breeze tickling my body that made me so alive and energetic that I'm able to breath. I inhaled the fresh air surrounding the giant oak trees that had grown thick, the cool air went down my lungs and chilled my inner body. I have no words to explain how peaceful it made me, better than the air condition in my car. The natural breeze is incomparable, the nature itself incomparable.

The bit of fresh air cleared my smither mind, made me realise how artificial the whole life I have lived. I've almost forget to mingle in nature or enjoyed the magnificent view after death of my soul, 'Reza'. I only looked out the world of my four daughters and their happiness, I sacrificed my desires. I'm happy to do so, never regretted for what I have dedicated. Because they are making me the centre of their lives, just like the planets revolving the sun.

I took few minutes to enjoy the path I was driving, it's extremely breathtaking view, with massive oak trees on either sides, the leaves had made a roof itself to give shades to the passengers. It makes all the senses calm and naturally imply, 'inner peace' state.

I got into the car and headed calmly to,'Oak drive elderly home' expecting to meet my mother. All I want is to bring her back home and introduce my girls. I didn't tell them why I'm out today, not knowing how the situation would turn up.

I actually thought mother lived with Bella after my father's death. My sisters were very careful to leak any information about the them to me and kept all the things under cover. I barely got the information of my father's death, thanks to my bestie, Seema. She was the one updated some information of my family. Seema and I was friends since the campus days, and working as a gemologist in UK. She knows Bella and Danielle from her husband, he was far related to Bella's husband. She never revealed to them that she is my friend, collected information for me. I got to know through Seema my mother has escaped from Bella's house, I wonder why she did that. It took six months for us to locate her destination exactly, Finally we found her!

Hot tears slithering down my cheeck, I wiped it quickly and drove fast to the home.
