Glorious dawn- the most embarrasing incident-

[GlORIOUS DAWN]
The most embarrassing incident of my life By tariq
Incidents are the part and parcel of life. Some incidents do please us while as others leave us embarrassed.
I had never expected her to be a cheat. After all she was my friend. She phoned me and said that she met an accident. She had been waiting me when a motor-cyclist knocked her down, she added. Her last word was, “I’m in hospital”. When I asked which hospital, the phone got disconnected.
I got the attack of must. Riding my bike, I managed to reach Iqbal Park where I expected she would have been. I inquired of her from the hawkers. They answered in naught. Being totally besides my wits, I rushed Pratap Park, and Naseem Bagh,but her where- abouts were known to none.
Now began my aimless search in the hospitals of the city, but this all was of no avail. Being dead tired ,I thought of Dialing the number of her home .There was a welcome reply .Her mother was calm enough. I gathered courage ,and asked about her. “She is very much here at home”, she answered. Hiding my nervousness I talked to her. Her words pacified me and made me believe that it wasn’t Nusrat’s phone call..
“Who did phone me and pulled life out of me?” I started teasing my nerves. I reached my home, and was much embarrassed about the person who had befooled me.Ultimetely Chooto, my little aide answered with all innocence saying , “any one could do it on this day, as it is Ist April, all fools day today. ”I stood startled.
