Blank for life

Wake up Arshad , I wasn't in the mood to let this sleeping lion nap because the truth shouldn't remain uncommunicative for a longer time. "Where we had to go now?'' I asked him in a cowardly way. He smiled with millions of hopes sprinkling on his face. My face was blank in front of optimistic soul It was our first meet up in Paknaria. Millions of kilometers away from the earth we were left in the jungle of unknown creatures. Why sent there hmm I was having a memory loss. As we were shot in the head. It wasn't me who found out this story. It was Arshad who disclosed the truth. I was highly impressed by his intelligence.

"Stay away from these mushrooms! " I listened to his louder voice "but I have already tickled one ". Simply he shook my hands and replied " appearance is always fake, those who look beautiful to you dump you in the end for sure ". Why he was so experienced, I wanted to analyze him but I wasn't authorized as his soul was mysterious. blank in front of his intelligence

.I was exhausted after walking day and night on these unpaved tracks. " when will we get a hint about the destination"? "There are no clues in water or ice you have to keep finding". I stored my courage and asked " were you there before "? . I was among siachen glaciers, on line of control, in the Arabian sea ,among the downpours bullets I persisted there. His memory was not lost for a reason.

"Chin up you two " I heeded a deep voice. Maybe it was my misconception . I looked at his face. "Keep walking" he notified me as nothing was transpiring. That voice again attempted to halt us. But I was following my king. Our feet were working robotically. "Stand there!"He found an old tree to rescue. I was breathing shortly. But he seemed to be drilled by birth. " My brother and I joined training camps. He was in the special service force" I felt tears in his eyes. "He left you, " I inquired. "On the same day when my father died, he was killed too ". This was the reason he was strong. Meantime we gave attention to voice " they escaped"

But we were arrested after a few days. We were presented In front of their king. In uniform he had ranks on his applets. I was satisfied that he might forbid this patriotic soul. The king's face matched a ghost who had a half manly and remaining satan look. His hands had fangs not fingers. Frown in his eyes shuddered me. "Nice to meet you again dear journalist". I looked at the face of Arshad. "Why didn't you inform me that you were a journalist?" I waa little angry at him. " more aspects to be revealed " he was still straightforward.

The King moved toward him, we both were having handcuffs, and the armed people around us also resembled with the king. " I wouldn't call you by your father's name as you misled him " He replied" I didn't, I was trained to speak truth, to enunciate when untrue things happen to my motherland. I wasn't instructed to become a traitor " . "Shut up you troublemaker , King was furious now, I killed you in Nairobi, as you were crossing your limits, you tried to expose me", King touched his face

" I wanted power and for this I didn't care for anyone. No matter if it was you or some Khan.

Arshad was in anger now "

I fought for my people, you all robbed my land which was acquired after numerous sacrifices. I didn't like to ruin the efforts of my forefathers. And who I was, a simple journalist who spoke for his country's army and was assassinated by them too. I deserve this reward for loyalty."?

Shut your dirty mouth, King face is becoming lunatic now. "Who listened to you? No one did as I made everyone deaf they could hear only one sound which was " army is the savior of Pure people land". Arshad tried to stand up with chains in feet " you were mistaken, you can't make all the honest people tight-lipped ". King laughed louder " but I already did". We saw a prison where numerous people having wounds on their body were taking their last breaths.

I recalled that they were all the people who favored Khan. The one who stood against corruption and who was my companion, I was in tears, he was Arshad Sharif . I wanted to shout as I recognised each face but before I could do anything the king took sniper and shot him in his head. Again the same thing happened. His last words were " His court will give right judgment". We all had to see another world as justice was still purchasable, law was still in the hands powerful , honestly and loyalty had to face penalty.

I was blank.

(This is the true story, where someone has to face death as the reward of loyalty to the motherland.I am not involving any political thoughts in this, but my pretty soul can't remain silent on this merciless act. I was rejected for speaking the truth and I don't want this has to be happen on hive blockchain. Anyone who favours freedom of speech I appreciate your presence. I don't know if the powerful hands will allow me to speak openly or not but I believe here I can write the truth with freedom. And I did so for self satisfaction. This is the prompt "blank" #dreem-wotw, apologies if strong word was used but I can't be silent with heavy heart and blank mind.)

Woah!
This is such a thrilling story...how can loyalty get a person killed instead of being justified???...so outrageous and disheartening.
.. I hope his gentle soul finds rest in the bossom of the lord... I popped in through #dreemport.

I wish the life hereafter will give rewards to such honest people. Once a day the truth shone brightly for sure. Some unclean politics can always suppress the truth. Good to see you Cesc .

For me, it was not easy either to speak or remain silent but I just relaxed my mind by speaking the truth. Thanks for the presence 💙

Arshad Shareef's death new boiled my blood. How merciliess these people are. I am in despair where we are living. We no longer care for our assets.

At present there is so much darkness around. I wish k ye sehr ka andhaira ho mgr mujhay buht dr lgta he k agr ye maghrib ka andhaira hoa tou raat buht taweel hogi.

How many people would be made silent? If death is the reward for honesty hang out with everyone publically so that you can play the fair game but now everyone is playing cards. We all know the hands behind this but we are still silent.

maghrib ka andhaira hoa tou raat buht taweel hogi.

Main kis k hath apna lahoo talash kron tamam sehr ny pehn rkhy hain dastany...... Yehi chalta rha to andehrii ratin hmara muqadar hoo. Gi. 😶 out of words.

How tragic and awful, Ayesha. I find it inspirational that you have the courage and tenacity to bring this content to your readers. People need to hear about these things so that they are not swept under the carpet and hidden from the world. Conveying it in the form of fiction or even creative non-fiction makes it accessible to a lot of people too. May I ask how you were rejected for speaking the truth outside of Hive? You don't need to answer this if it is too uncomfortable a topic to discuss further🙏🤗 !LUV !ALIVE !LADY

One of the important things that I love about writing is "it ensures freedom of speech ". About journalism, I loved this before but being a girl restricted me to do as. The thing that happend with Arshad Sharif is common, one has to pay his/her life for speaking the truth. So writing boosted that maybe web3 wouldn't restrict me to do so.

were rejected for speaking the truth outside of Hive?

Yes, Sam, this happened, in my routine life my family was annoyed mentally so that they can restrict me. With time, I wrapped myself in silence and gave my hands the power to write the truth. Arghh bad memories 🙂 thanks for your love, Sam 💙

Wow... He was brave to stand up for the truth! Did you know him personally? My prayers are with his family, and hopefully the corrupt king will soon be dethroned.
