'Dad, do you remember Ghazal and Ali ' Elam asked

'The couple who helped you.' Mr Farooq said and Elam nodded his head in yes.

'What do you want to tell me.' Mr Farooq asked

' Dad, there is no electricity in their village and they are in need of it.' Elam said and looked at his dad who was listening.

' I don't know how they are living like this.  There life is double hard then ours. The government didn't provide electricity to them as if they don't exist.' Elam said and his dad was still looking at him.

' They think it is small village and that is a reason they are being ignored. Then, I thought there must be many more small villages in the whole country where people are living without electricity.' Elam said.

'What do you want me to do for you?' Mr Farooq asked

'You are prime minister of this country. You meant to help them. It is your duty.' Elam said and looked at him.

'I am sorry but I will not be able to help you.' Mr Farooq said and Elam shocked looked at him.

'What do you mean, dad?' Elam asked

' It's clearly mean that I can't help you.' Mr Farooq said

'What? That is inhuman and Why you can't help them?  Elam said while getting angrily

'Do you think is it just me who control and take decisions  ' Mr Farooq asked calmly and he nodded his head in yes.

'Then, You are wrong Elam son, It is not just me all alone take decision degrading the country. It is a system.' Mr Farooq said

'So, you can't help me at all.'  Elam asked

'I can try but there is no way they will agree. Everyone is here to earn money, doesn't matter right way or wrong way. Nobody will agree with me.' Mr Farooq said

'There is no other way you could help me.' Elam ask hopefully.

'There is a way.' Mr Farooq said and he smiling looked at his son

'Which way?' Elam asked

' You know if you want to change something in country. You have to change the system and for that you have to get into system.'  Mr Farooq said and Elam was shocked looking at him.

'Youu want me to get into politics.' Elam said shocked and Mr Farooq nodded his head in yes.

'You know dad I hate politics and corruption.' Elam said

'I know but there is no point sitting down and just point out finger on system. And don't think of doing it anything about it rather then just talking.' Mr Farooq said

'I am not just talking, I really want to help them but there is a-lot of corruption in politics.' Elam said

' So what, there is corruption everywhere now days. Even in mosques, there is corruption where people steal mosques' money for their own needs.' Mr Farooq said and Elam looked at him.

'Dad, I never think about it.' Elam said whereas Mr Farooq smile to him

' You know Elam, I strongly think that young generation and educated people could make change in countries because they have different thinking.' Mr Farooq said

' You are right but I am never into politics.' Elam said

' Take time, think about it.' Mr Farooq said and he nodded his in yes and walked out.
