Novel: AN UNWANTED FLIGHT

CH#11

Is it WAZIRASTAN?


‘Wow…its New Year…Yes, its New Year night, and we’re in Pakistan among Hindu Kush mountains of Waziristan region,’ Houbara cried excitedly after gazing from small hole in truck’s body.  All TV channels were screening New Year celebrations and fireworks all over the country at big LED at roadside hotel.
‘Are you sure?’ crane jumped up and pushed Houbara at side.
‘I don’t believe about my luck. The world is unquestionably round; we’ve been here before many times to bear our winter quarter but always entered from China after crossing Karakoram. This is first time that…oh my…those were definitely plucky Pakistanis who were constructing security fence around complex and long-drawn-out Afghan border even in harsh winter and snowfall that we were observing for days while flying high in this region.

Don’t say me to turn back. I’m going to stay here till spring then will cross Karakorum towards China to make till Siberia. Pakistan is full of diversify landscape from wetlands to deserts for us. Waziristan itself is bordered with wetlands at Bannu district of KPK province and semi deserted cities at Baluchistan province. I’m not going back,’ he continued its murmuring. ‘We have been deciding the same at every country since we started but…,’ Houbara bustard also decided to enjoy forty winks in foggy night among filled sacks at backside of truck without tiring its nerves.


‘Hey fowls, get up. Its sun above heads or do you want to have free ride from Waziristan till Karachi?’ Their little hearts whacked up listening at the human voice close to them. A cheerful fair colored young man wearing Peshawari cap and wrapped in warm shawl was smiling over them. He was settling down the sacks and crates in truck.

‘Oh my…,’ Siberian Crane whooped in terror. Houbara bustard stuck still.
‘Don’t worry, you’re free to fly. It was just an offer. I’m Darya Khan. Actually I’m kind of happy today. She is my cousin…,’ his cheeks blushed for seconds. ‘I’m going to Waana (a place at Waziristan) to get married....,’  
‘Oh, why don’t you people protest against security wall at Afghan border? This would edge the free meeting of local people from both sides.’ Darya khan stopped after listening at yelling outside.
‘Oh, he is our driver from Afghanistan. He must be arguing with owner of hotel,’ Darya khan moved to lip of truck box.
‘Oh Lala (big brother) just tell me first why authorities construct grills on highways when natives are easy to cross the road from anywhere at sides? They listened at hotel owner this time.
‘This is simple just to save them from accidents and to manage the disciplined traffic,’
‘And why this simple thing is not making place in your skull, lala. This wall will also save the people from terrorist accidents and will manage the trouble-free, save and permissible traffic from both sides. Look, how easily you come in here and will roam all over Pakistan legally,’
‘Pakistani public unnecessarily favor army,’ the driver didn’t want to convince.
‘Army is we and we’re army and single unit doesn’t need the favors but trust. We don’t favor but trust our army. Pakistan already has sacrificed a lot of lives and has put up with noteworthy economic and psychological hammering for decade in this alien’s war against terrorism. It’s enough now, we’ll do whatever fixation is desired to shield Pakistan,’ the owner got emotional.
‘Lala, don’t tire your nerves, continue your delivery. By the week you’ve to take floor back on this truck. Peace is in favor of all of us,’ Darya khan jumped down of truck to fix the argument.
 ‘Go and enjoy your wedding, Darya khan. Your family must be waiting. They’ve arranged a big feast and festivity after all you’re eldest,’ the owner of hotel moved to Darya khan.
‘Thanks to almighty Allah that our days of feast and hope at Waziristan turn back,’ he gazed at driver who was now in truck. The engine started to warm up and they both saw Darya khan singing and moving down from main road of Waziristan towards a ground which was covered with maize crop. It was just like golden corns were peeping out of curtains to welcome him. They were still flat in trucks box.  
 ‘What are you waiting for, come out?’ Houbara dragged Siberian crane out.
 ‘Wow…I believe that the sun wouldn’t be so vivid and peaceful on Waziristan ever before. It’s totally changed from Waziristan which was abducted due to terrorism few years ago,’ Houbara gazed on paved roads, schools and up to date infrastructure all around. Though Gomal and Tochi rivers were flowing low in winter but still the people at Waziristan were bearing barley, maize and wheat crops from them. 
‘Do you remember when we last came here few years back…,’
‘Oh, please Houbara I even don’t want to recall those memories. How unfortunate we were to witness that brutal terrorist attack on innocent children of Army public school. Everything wrapped in mourn at this country from sky to earth at martyrdom of innocent,’ crane still remember that brutal December.

‘Yes, it was atrocious but that obnoxious incident turned a new leaf in history of Pakistan that they wipe out all rubbish out of their land. Its true when Pakistanis fix on to achieve any goal then no peak can stop them. No matter the number of breaches, enemies deposit in this society, Pakistanis know to dig them up at time of need. Their out of mark atomic power and then mind-boggling operation against miscreants at Waziristan reveal their patriotism and passion. Pakistan at Waziristan is now an epicenter of hope, conviction, and optimism for the nations, who are struggling hard against terrorism and violence,’ Houbara took a round of Waziristan from height and then sat at branch of tree which was full of most unique wild honey bee Apis Flora’s hives ripened with sweet honey.
‘Absolutely agreed, last time I stayed near wetlands at Bannu, I think. Its somewhere close,’ Siberian crane flew high to locate for any wetland. Just then he overheard at very familiar grumbling.  ‘I’m too unfortunate like Pakistan for having such trouble making neighbors. Please live and let me live in peace too,’
‘Uncle Goose,’ they jumped in triumph and cried aloud. Houbara also flew up. ‘Oh my god, after long time we saw some of our buddy. We love you uncle goose. We love you…,’ they both squeezed and kissed uncle goose as soon as they stumble on him.
‘Hey vagabonds, where you have been? I left at last from Siberia but even then I couldn’t see you anywhere in the way over or at China,’ uncle goose hardly got him out of their wings.
‘It is a long story but what’s the matter here?’ Crane and Houbara turned around a group of birds.
‘You know guys; I’m a peace lover and just want others to respect it too but after continuous annoyance from these buddies I decided to make chicken fence wall around my habitat for the better security of my family. Some of these buddies are trying to put hurdles in it. I think they are kind of jealous, insecure or just trouble maker but I’m really frustrated. I was here to talk with few of their representatives but they are kind of rude and unhelpful,’ uncle goose continued.
‘Oh dear uncle goose, don’t get worry. God help the creatures and nations with right intentions. We’re here to help you out. We’ll complete the security wall at every cost and will not allow anyone to annoy our mentor,’ Crane consoled uncle goose. They flew high in sky. The chill but fresh air over Waziristan soothe their nerves.
‘You both are blessing in disguise,’ uncle goose sighed calm.
‘Uncle did my mother and sister got to Lake Poyang safe? How were they?’
‘And what about my family,’ Crane and Houbara hurriedly asked about their families while flying over Razmak and Alexedria Palace in Waziristan.  ‘They were good at their wintering regions in China but they were worried for you both. I’m happy you both are safe,’ uncle goose relieved them. In a while they reached at Thanedar wala Game reserve( a famous wetland habitat of migratory birds near Indus) at Bannu district in east of Wazirastan to solve uncle goose issue…
