Very engaging, Bina. You managed to project vivid characters without being verbose.

Looking forward to Part II

yeah.....

and the Ingrained Hatred for Punjabis......



I would recomend them to Migrate again... this time to the plains of

Punjab......


a couple of years Out of karachi..... will surely..... wash away the Baisdness in their

eyes.... and attitude.....and the indoctrined hatred.... especially of a

political nature..... which is being exploited the same way.... a feudual exploits..

his serfs.... only More bruatally.... with Body Bags.... lying in the gutter ....of

oponents...

Hooka (Shisha) bars are going crazy in the US, almost every where I turn I seem to find one. I think they probably already have those in Karachi...Combine a hooka bar with a cybercafe and I think you`re on to something.

Nice story, very sad. It reflects the hopelessness of the youth in Karachi when it comes to establishing one`s self.
