His life turned hard after the incident which happened to them almost five years ago. His wife was paralyzed and all the responsibilities of his house were on his shoulders. He was the father of three kids and in their upbringing, he was responsible for dropping them off at schools, washing their clothes, to cooking food for them. He was also used to taking care of his wife(Nida) together with his job.
One day, he was working in his office, and just then he remembers something,
"Omg! It's already 2 pm and my children will be waiting for me in the school."
Waqar rushed in a hurry to pick up his children from their school, but on the way, there was a great traffic jam. He got stuck there for one hour, but as soon as he got a chance he came out of the traffic and reached the school. But the guard informed him that his children were already gone after waiting for one hour. Waqar got worried to hear this, but he drove his car in a hurry to reach his home to see his children. But his wife informed him that they hadn't reached home.
They both were upset. Waqar went back and searched for his children, but he couldn't find them anywhere. He took the help of the police and they started to find his children. It was 9 pm, but still, there was no clue about their children. Waqar was still in the police station with a heavy heart. He was praying for the safety of his children, and just then he saw a police officer standing beside him. He recognized him as he was his classmate in intermediate school.
"Are you Asad? " He asked him!
"Yes! And if I am not wrong, you are waqar! Right? "
"Yes! I am waqar."
"Aww my friend! How are you? How is your life going?"
Hearing this Waqar burst into tears and they both hugged each other.
"Is everything ok? Why are you crying?" Asad asked him in awe.
Waqar couldn't control himself and told him everything he faced in the past few years.
" It was the hardest night of our life, me and my wife were going to celebrate our third anniversary together, but suddenly our car met with an accident. That incident changed our lives as she got paralyzed. Since that day, everything has changed. I don’t know, how I am living my life and now this happened. "
He cried hard and wiped his tears with his hands. Asad was also sad to hear this, but he promised him that, he would try his best to search his children. They searched every hospital, police station and famous place in the city but couldn't find them.
" I think now you should go home, I will inform you if we would find any clue."
"How I would face my wife...she would be waiting for her children." He replied in despair.
But somehow his friend made him understand and sent him to his home. When Waqar entered his home, Nida was already waiting for his children.
"You come alone...where are my kids Waqar? Why they are not with you."
Waqar couldn't say anything and just sat in a corner. After a while, his friend rang him and asked him to come to the police station. When he reached there, his friend made him meet the person who was already sitting there.
"Met him, Mr.Waqar! He knows about your children."
Hearing this Waqar got anxious and before he could ask him anything, one of his kids ran towards him and the other two followed him behind. Waqar was surprised to see his children in front of him. The man told him,
"Sorry sir! I couldn't reach on time. I found your kids on the way, distracted and depressed. I asked them for their address but they couldn't say anything, so I brought them home. I wanted to come early but my mother was sick, so I became late."
Hearing this Waqar thanked him and his eyes filled with tears of gratitude. Then he brought his children to his home, as soon as Nida saw his children, she stood up from her wheelchair and rushed towards her children. Waqar couldn't understand what happened, he was surprised to see his wife standing on her legs.
"Omg!.... Nida!... How it's possible? You are walking...I am watching a dream or is it reality?
Nida met with her children and was also surprised to see herself. Now she was perfectly alright and could walk on her feet. Their family was complete and happy again. This was the best spring surprise they could ever have.
