So Salma’s brother learnt that she was not at work a day when all at home believed that she had been to work….. He could not believe it and went to enquire at her office and verified the dates where she has taken local leaves and the Sundays which she pretended to go to work were all false, she had never been to work. The supervisor of that factory was a friend of Javed, and he gave all information about Salma to him. Javed reported the matter to the parents and she was questioned about her whereabouts on those days. She gave no replies but was quiet all along the interrogation. The next day Aslam, not aware of anything was waiting for her in the morning but she was not seen at all. The bus left Phoenix yet she did not come! At Belle Rose he waited for her expecting to see her passing in another bus.... he waited for long on the pavement of the bus stop and yes, she was in another bus, Aslam was relieved to see her, but to his surprise she did not look at him at all!!..... He was so eagerly waiting for her, and he needed her smile and her looks to start his day, she knew it so very well, but she was looking down in a bus...... Aslam wished to knock the window pane of the bus, when his eyes went on the boy sitting next to her, he was looking tough and rough, and was gazing at him. Aslam had seen him many times before in Phoenix and in the bus, and he understood that he was Javed, Salma’s brother! ‘Oh! That was the matter, that’s why my love did not dare look at me this morning? Never mind my heart; we will see each other this evening at Rose Hill!’ Aslam comforted himself with these words. And it had been a very difficult day for Aslam. He found Salma pale in the morning. He had a bad feeling. He got like an intuition that something bad was to happen.... he has a heavy heart the whole day and felt like having difficulty to breath.... he was worried and tensed. His forehead and eyes pained, he wished to rest...... but he had lots of works too..... So he started thinking of the happy moments he elapsed in her company to forget the stress..... He started thinking the way he felt her warm breath over his neck when she is enlaced in his arms, he thought of her warm touch, he felt her voice humming in his ears..... That way he felt much better, and he out of sudden remembered that the next day they had to meet and they had another 10 hours to spend at that very special place they had created for themselves in the bush, in between nature. He was very much eased and glad thinking of their next day’s meeting. At 5.30 PM they met at the terminus. And as usual he reached there before her and was waiting in the queue when she joined and he left a space for her in front of him. She had a sad look and smiled with him and once in the queue she said “Let’s go to the garden!” amazed he looked in her face asking “At this time? But we are going there tomorrow isn’t it?” he questioned. She answered “I have to talk to you Aslam and I won’t get the time to say what I have to say while travelling. We are in summer and the sun sets at 7.15 so we have almost two hours to be together. Let’s go please” He agreed and they left the queue, he walked to a taxi which dropped them at the botanical garden. In the garden it was very quiet with some students in couples at some corners and some elder couples to another side and some older person performing physical exercises. Salma pulled Aslam by his hand to a wooden bench and asked him to sit there. He proposed to go to their secret place, but she said it was too late to go there, and suggested that they sit there on the bench for an hour and talk. He accepted but reminded her that the next day they are going to their secret place down the valley. Even on the bench they sat was a lonely area as it was evening and people who passed by moved away seeing them sitting there so as not to disturb them as they looked like a couple in love. “So what is the matter my lovely baby? Why are you looking pale today and why a sudden change of trajectory this evening?” he started the conversation. She gave a long sigh, and smiled at him looking deeply in his face and searching something in his eyes. She took a deep breath, screwed her lips and childishly said “You are very hot tempered isn’t it Aslam? You get irritated very easily and you are very easily angered am I right?” “Hey, come on don’t tell me you asked me to come here to talk about my getting nervous!” was Aslam’s reply. She had a lovely smile and took his hands tightly into hers and said “I LOVE TO SEE YOU IN THIS JOLLY MOOD. I love your sense of humour and happy- going way, I like your funny talks, I love your smart ideas and thoughts. I know very well that you are a bit authoritative, and I also know that you have leadership qualities as I often have seen you among your friends the way you lead the group. I know you are loved amongst your friends too and I also know that you are very sensitive and intelligent. I also know your importance at your home and at your work place, and I know someday you will make it big in life. Aslam was not understanding where she wanted to come saying all that and pronounced “Hey, hello! What is this lecture all about? I did not ask you to predict my future my dear, what’s going on? Are you alright? You seem to be drunk! Hehehe!!” and he started laughing loudly, which made her go on laughing too. They were still holding hands and she pulled out one of her hands and put it to his cheeks, looked into his eyes for a long while, kissed his both cheeks, held both his cheeks in her hands, kissed his forehead, and her eyes filled up and she dropped some tears. Aslam was perplexed and took her into his tight arms and cajoled her asking “Hey baby, what’s the matter? Why are you crying? What happened? Tell me, I want to know. You seem to be hiding something aren’t you?” she looked fixing in his eyes again and burst into a cry loudly. He held her to his chest and was tapping her shoulder, amazed, and was going on asking why she was crying. She moved her cheek close to his, she wished to feel his cheek over hers and Aslam felt her warm tears over his cheek, she was surrounding his shoulder into her arms and she kissed him, exploring his mouth, and Aslam felt the salty tears on his tongue mixed in the kiss..... he kissed away her tears from her eyes, and gently brushed off her hair which were stuck over her cheeks, with his lips, and whispered in her ears “My sweet sweet baby, my love, please don’t cry anymore, I can’t bear to see you in this state, please tell me what is the problem, won’t you share with your love?” On seeing such love bestowed on her she cried more and more and talked with the cries “Aslam I will NEVER be yours, I cannot be yours, I AM ALREADY ENGAGED! I WILL BE GETTING MARRIED NEXT MONTH. PLEASE FORGIVE ME! I ONLY WANTED TO KNOW WHAT ISTRUE LOVE. I WANTED TO KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO BE IN LOVE, I NEVER LOVED THAT MAN, MY PARENTS FORCED ME TO MARRY HIM, I DO NOT LOVE HIM AT ALL, I ONLY LOVE YOU. I HAVE NEVER EVER LOVED ANYBODY ELSE IN MY LIFE. I LEARNT WHAT LOVE IS WITH YOU ONLY............ Her cheeks, nose, were all wet with tears, and while she was saying all that, Aslam was silently listening, his eyes wide open, he did not even blink them and Salma lifted her head to look why he was silent, and she found tears running from his eyes all along his cheeks, reaching his chin, he had a running nose too, he said no word and stood up silently rubbing his nose and eyes, and she held his arm to stop, and she was going on crying too, he grasped his hand from her, looked furious, and walked some steps, returned to her, walked away again and did to and fro from the bench to another one...... she was staring at him and going on crying.... he was not saying any word, but only drying his eyes and walking to and fro.... when he came near her, she pleaded with sobs “Aslam I wish to hold you in my arms, please come near me, please my love, let me hold you hard to my heart” and she burst into a big cry again........ He neared her, took her tightly in his arms and said in a grave voice “Don’t marry him, run away with me, and let us elope!”
Uranus' axis is at 97 degrees. which means that it orbits on its side. (Most of the planets spin on an axis nearly perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic but Uranus' axis is almost parallel to the ecliptic.)
The three most recently discovered planets were Uranus in 1781, Neptune in 1846, and Pluto in 1930.
Mercury is the only planet whose orbit is coplanar with its equator. Venus and Uranus are the only planets that rotate opposite to the direction of their orbit.
Jupiter has the shortest day of all the planets. Although it has a circumference of 280,000 miles compared with Earth's 25,000 Jupiter manages to make one turn in 9 hours and 55 minutes.
If you are having problems remembering the planets in their correct order, just remember this sentence "My very educated mother justed served us nine pickles," Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.
According to scientists, Gold exists on Mars, Mercury, and Venus
The bus had not yet gone even 50 metres ahead and Aslam wished to go back to her, to be with her.... he went to work in her thoughts. That day he was on the route in connection with his work and he had to pass at Saint Pierre, the place Salma works. He asked the driver to pass by the industrial zone and he was feeling like seeing her. The driver asked what for he should go to that zone, and when Aslam insisted he drove to that zone and it was lunch time and many girls and women were out in the yard and he was longing to see his piece of heart...... but to no avail, he got to return without seeing her, he had a very strange feeling at that moment....
And the much awaited evening came. He was waiting for her at the Rose Hill bus terminus. He saw her alighting from the Saint Pierre bus and coming towards the queue he was standing. She had a smile and was blushing on seeing him waiting for her. He stepped a little bit backward to let her get in front of him. And they talked while waiting for the bus to come. He asked if she never gets out of the factory at lunch time and told her that he was there this day at lunch time. She felt sorry and said had she known he would be coming she would have got out. The bus came, they got in and sat together, he paid the fares, and they were close to each other, he prayed for the jam again, and it was answered! He laughed and she joined him in the laughs. They were having a normal conversation and she said “I AM ENGAGED ALREADY!” Aslam was shocked for a while..... He did not say any word, then looked at her hand, then her finger and smiled “You must be kidding isn’t it? Where is your engagement ring then?” by then he had taken her left hand in his, and was caressing her fingers. And he felt very happy holding her hand in his, and said “your hand is so soft, as though it will get hurt by my touch.” She said “I DON’T LIKE WEARING THE RING “She smiled while saying that and Aslam said “Will you please stop joking? It hurts!” she then bent down her head and was lost in thoughts. They were both quiet for a long while. She lifted up her head to look at his face and hit him with her elbow to his rib and asked “Why you are not talking?” He did not reply. So she talked, “well, assume that I am engaged for true, what you would do?” he answered, “I don’t know, I will go crazy!” she patted his cheek and asked “when did you fall in love with me?” he said “The very first time I saw you getting in the bus.” And he asked, “But tell me, you never had any feelings for me during those 2 months that we had only looks at each other?” And Salma told him that she used to watch him secretly all those days, even before he ever noticed her, she loved his Jeans and T-Shirts which he wore and she gave her preferences, naming those she preferred, and she explained how she was waiting for the day that he will talk to her. And she added that she loved his eyes and would love to have eyes like his! Aslam listened attentively with a deep smile on his face and was so glad to hear all that. “You little cheat” he told her. “You knew me even before I noticed you, you were watching me secretly huh?” and she replied, “yes, I knew you used to alight at Belle Rose and worked in that firm, and every morning I waited for you to get out of the bus and kept looking at you and prayed that you notice me one day!”..... “Hey, so your prayer is answered huh?” he taunted! She smiled biting her lips and said “But I know we won’t succeed!” Aslam felt nervous and asked her to stop talking like that as he was feeling unease. After a while Aslam asked her “Salma, my love, tell me, DO YOU LOVE ME LIKE I DO?” She answered, “I DO LOVE YOU, BUT I DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO, YET I DO LOVE YOU, AND YOU ARE THE ONE AND ONLY PERSON I LOVE TRUELY.” So that’s enough, I don’t want to know more, we love each other and that only counts, nothing more.” Was Aslam’s words to her. They were quiet for a moment again when he started “I WISH TO BE ALONE WITH YOU, NOT IN THE BUS, SOMEWHERE ELSE WHERE THERE WILL BE ONLY ME AND YOU. PLEASE, I WISH TO SEE YOU ALONE.” He was very sad saying that and she was lost in thoughts, they were both serious and tensed!.... and she said “ tomorrow my brother is going in a funeral, he wont go to work, so I wont go either, can you take a leave? I will leave home the same time in the morning; you do same as though you are going to work, can you?”
The next day they met. She did not go to work, but told her parents that she was going. They went in the Botanical garden found in Rose Hill, away from people’s eyes, and she was soon in his arms. He has asked her to wear the fuchsia two-piece he loved, and she was in that. They walked holding each other and went away and away, farther than they expected, to a very remote area where nobody went! In the middle of shrubs, trees and bushy environment, they built a nest like place and lay there. Aslam held her in his arms, kissed her behind her ears, bit the lobe of her ear, ran his tongue under her neck, kissed it and she enlaced him tightly, surrendering herself completely to him. He gradually ran his mouth over her cheeks looking for her lips, and they were soon lost in a passionate kiss. They spent the whole day in that place away from the viewers, far from the crowded town, distant from the noise of the bus’s motor. The chirping of birds, the blowing of the cool breeze among the branches of the trees and hearing water running through the rocks of a river nearby enhanced their romantic moments....... another moment he was resting his head over her, hearing her heart beating fast inside her, and she changed position as said she wanted to hear his heartbeats, thus she was resting her head over his chest, and he was running his fingers in her hair, caressing her scalp, giving it a light massage! She slept! And he kept admiring her sleeping fearlessly, feeling protected in his arms, away from the world. He wished the world stopped moving, time stopped there and the world came to an end and his beloved stayed in his arms for ever! They spent 10 hours together at that place. At the time she ends work, they were back at the Rose Hill bus terminus. And as though they were returning from work, he accompanied her to Phoenix, walked her to her house and he went back home. After that day, they met daily as usual in the bus while travelling for work, but they did their best to meet one day by not going to work. Once they met on a Sunday, telling at home that they had extra hours of work. They spent happy moments together and they were lost in love. Aslam one day then told her that he will come to ask her hand in marriage with her parents to which SALMA OBJECTED! She said she will tell him when the right time comes. And Aslam had related all about his adventures to his sister who in turn told her mother and both mother and sister were in deep worries! They were both worried for him lest he face deception! That is because three years ago Aslam loved a girl named Laila, who betrayed him by going to France with her cousin who married her! Laila opted for the luxuries, big bungalows and going abroad and left Aslam lonely. Aslam had to have psychiatric treatments and was almost mad after that episode. It took him two long years to get cured! And this was the third year and here he meets Salma!! His mother and sister were very worried as to what will happen if in case he does not succeed with Salma! Nevertheless, the two lovers went on seeing each other more often and one day her brother learnt at work that she was absent while everybody at home believed that she was at work!
It's not clear whether Aman's teaching skills match his computer skills An eight-year-old boy in India who specialises in animation for films has begun teaching his skills to adults.
Aman Rehman, from Dehradun in the north Indian state of Uttarakhand, is also seeking to win a Guinness Book of World Records "Young Achiever" award.
Aman learned computers while his friends played in the fields and has made more than 1,000 animated movies.
He is known as the "Little Bill Gates" - famous all over the state after learning his trade as a toddler.
'Fascinated'
Aman comes from a humble background. His father is an illiterate scooter mechanic
and has to support four children - Aman being the youngest - along with his wife.
Aman Rehman is India's latest child prodigy When one reaches the clock tower of Dehradun and asks for his address it seems everybody knows
him as Computerwala Bachha. Aman showed interest in computers at the tender age of three.
"His father bought a second-hand computer for our oldest son. We never imagined that it would be
remotely interesting to our youngest son. But he was fascinated by it and watched his brother's every move on the
cursor," Aman's mother Shabnam Rehman remembers. "After his brother went to college
Aman used to work on the computer secretly. I was scared at that time but by Allah's grace
he has made all of us proud." Aman's father, M Rehman, says that at first he never realised his son's talent.
"My friends advised me to introduce him to some computer experts but they did not take him seriously," he said.
But after a week of immense lobbying Mr Rehman convinced the authorities at Dehradun's College of Interactive Arts to watch his
son perform on the computers. Scholarship After seeing his skills, the college offered him a place. Within a month
he had written his own programme and had learnt the animation course in less than three months - it normally takes 15 months to complete.
The child's talents have taken even his parents by surprise Aman has now applied for an entry in the in the Young Achiever's category of the Guinness Book of World Records.
"I am the youngest computer animator. No other child of my age can make animation movies," he says proudly.
"I am sure that I will get an entry into the Guinness book and am waiting for that big day."
His father claims that an Australian company has made approaches to his son,
but both are adamant that they want to carry on working in India.
In recognising his computer skills, the College of Interactive Arts has now provided him
with a scholarship, the state government has given him a laptop and 100,000 rupees ($2,073).
"Such is the price of a child prodigy these days," said one member of staff.

So when Aslam said this line to her “does it need saying that I am madly in love with you and want you to be mine for ever?” she looked at him not astonished as it was clear to each of them that there was love in the air as they both spent two and a half months playing with the eyes!!... yet there was something which was disturbing Salma but she was not saying it….. And Aslam could not observe that as he was too happy to be in her company and talking to her about his love for her……. They were now almost reaching Phoenix where she would alight, and Aslam would go further to reach his home, but Salma was sure that he will get down at Phoenix and will follow her to see where she lived, thats why she said “ look now I will be walking in my area, and I know you are going to walk behind me and you will come up to my house, so I beg of you not to talk with me in the road, if you wish to walk behind, I am not preventing you but for God sake do not talk to me at all! We must look like strangers to each other.” Aslam being a bit stubborn said “but what if we talk like friends?” “we are not friends!! If you were one, everybody here would have known you! And please once that I get in my yard you immediately return from there, please don’t stand near my house, I don’t want anybody from my place to notice you and ask me questions” Aslam agreed on the condition that the next morning she will sit near him while going to work and will return with him like today from Rose Hill as he ends work before her and he will wait for her at Rose Hill. She agreed. “YEAH!” shouted the hero, pointing his fist in the air! She was walking slowly towards her house, and Aslam was walking behind her at a distance of about 2 metres. She turned back several times to look at him, and looking at all corners meanwhile to see if anybody was looking at her actions. From behind, Aslam was admiring her long hair moving from right to left brushing her back and part of both her arms at the back. Twice she took the hair in her hand and placed it in her front, but it gradually went back again to the pleasure of Aslam’s eyes, who smiled having a pleasant appreciation at it...... he admired all her movements, her walk, the way she moved her hair from her face, the way her hips moved, the way she turned back to look at him, the way she sighed, and how she took the tissue in her hand to rub her chin and lips..... In short he admired all in her. She reached her yard, a small house in between trees and flowers, and a short way to go through the door..... Aslam walked ahead letting her get inside, she turned back thrice to look at him. He returned after walking about 5 metres ahead, and when he arrived near her yard she was standing near her window smiling timidly, he sent a flying kiss after looking on both side on the road that there was no one looking at his gestures. She laughed and signalled with her hand saying “GO! GO BACK HOME!!” And our hero, very happy and proud of his feat of love went home. Salma occupied his mind all along the way, whole evening, all night! He dreamt of her, and jumped out of bed in the middle of the night to smile to him and start dreaming open eyed! He could not sleep anymore and kept thinking of the next morning. He was like a young kid who receives a gift and can’t wait for next morning to play with it. He was having such feelings! In the morning he related everything to his sister, younger to him. She liked it but was very worried! Why? Why she was very worried? Well will soon read about it! Aslam hurried near the mirror, shaving, he wore his Jeans and T-shirt and hurried out to catch the bus..... Once in the bus he was eager to reach Phoenix and was longing to see Salma’s beautiful face, to see her smile, to admire her soft hands and to hear her sweet voice. He was thrilled and felt time delaying..... Reaching Phoenix, he stood up in the bus to look outside, to have a glimpse of his beloved. But he was disappointed not to find her there!! He looked at his watch to see if it was not the time she used to be there, the time was right, his heart beat faster and he was having difficulty to breath as though...... He kept standing in the bus to look ahead if she was coming or not, and the bus started to move! Aslam was worried and wished to get out of the bus and go to her dwelling place to see what the matter was, but fortunately after some metres he found her hurrying and looking inside the bus, waving it to stop, and Aslam walked to the driver and requested him to wait for her, and it was done!! “OH” He sighed, after sitting. She sat near him and bed good morning to him, he replied and said “we should kiss each other’s cheek on meeting everyday” To kiss on the cheek in Mauritius is very normal among friends be it girls or boys. Salma replied him “no, not now, not so fast, we are not even friends!” but Aslam said “ But I have already started considering you part of my life, so I am going to kiss you good morning” and he leaned towards her cheek, she moved more and more farther smiling and biting her lips, till his lips kissed her cheek! She immediately turned to look at the back if any passenger was of her acquaintance..... And he asked why she was late. She said “Did you see my brother?” “What? Which brother? I don’t know your brother!” Aslam replied. But she said “You know him well! During the last two months, he sat near me twice in this bus and when you alighted at Belle Rose he saw you looking at me!” Aslam was perplexed and said he knows nothing at all. He asked explanations. She explained; “Look, I have a brother three years elder than me who works in the same industrial zone I work but in a different factory! He works in diamond factory and I in spectacles. He leaves home almost the same time as me as his work starts same time as mine and he ends same as mine! You see, that is why I was asking you not to talk with me at the terminus yesterday as he could have been around any time! And this morning he was late and I was waiting for him to leave before me so that he won’t be in this bus as I had to be with you. If he would have been in this bus I would never sat with you!” “But how come I did never noticed him?” he said. She continued “one morning he was sitting near me and I had turned back to look at your facial expression, I wanted to see if you would feel jealous, but you were lost in your thoughts!! And that day when you alighted at Belle Rose and you stopped to look at me from the pavement, Javed (my bro) told me ‘why is that boy staring at you?’ and I was looking at you under my eyes so that he would not notice”..... Aslam replied “ you know Salma, I was so much involved in looking at you, appreciating you, thinking of you that I never paid heed of all that, I can’t make out whom you are talking of, but I am sure I will recognize him once you show him to me.” “Okay, the next time that he is around I will show you who is Javed. I bet you know him as he has many times travelled in this bus.” She said, and continued, “you are almost reaching Belle Rose Aslam, have a nice day, take care, see you this evening.” Aslam curved his lips and said good bye to her complaining that the time is not enough to talk with her and that he will wait for her at Rose Hill in the evening and heeded her to beware not to let his bro be around as they won’t, then be able to talk. He kissed he abruptly and stood up to go out, his eyes on her till he reached the door, and his usual staring at her from the pavement, till the bus leaves.... she waved him goodbye, this was the first time she did that which added joy to his day!
So when Aslam said this line to her “does it need saying that I am madly in love with you and want you to be mine for ever?” she looked at him not astonished as it was clear to each of them that there was love in the air as they both spent two and a half months playing with the eyes!!... yet there was something which was disturbing Salma but she was not saying it…..

He looked at his watch to see if it was not the time she used to be there, the time was right, his heart beat faster and he was having difficulty to breath as though...... He kept standing in the bus to look ahead if she was coming or not, and the bus started to move! Aslam was worried and wished to get out of the bus and go to her dwelling place to see what the matter was, but fortunately after some metres he found her hurrying and looking inside the bus, waving it to stop, and Aslam walked to the driver and requested him to wait for her, and it was done!! “OH” He sighed, after sitting. She sat near him and bed good morning to him, he replied and said “we should kiss each other’s cheek on meeting everyday” To kiss on the cheek in Mauritius is very normal among friends be it girls or boys. Salma replied him “no, not now, not so fast, we are not even friends!” but Aslam said “ But I have already started considering you part of my life, so I am going to kiss you good morning” and he leaned towards her cheek, she moved more and more farther smiling and biting her lips, till his lips kissed her cheek! She immediately turned to look at the back if any passenger was of her acquaintance..... And he asked why she was late. She said “Did you see my brother?” “What? Which brother? I don’t know your brother!” Aslam replied. But she said “You know him well! During the last two months, he sat near me twice in this bus and when you alighted at Belle Rose he saw you looking at me!” Aslam was perplexed and said he knows nothing at all. He asked explanations. She explained; “Look, I have a brother three years elder than me who works in the same industrial zone I work but in a different factory! He works in diamond factory and I in spectacles. He leaves home almost the same time as me as his work starts same time as mine and he ends same as mine! You see, that is why I was asking you not to talk with me at the terminus yesterday as he could have been around any time! And this morning he was late and I was waiting for him to leave before me so that he won’t be in this bus as I had to be with you. If he would have been in this bus I would never sat with you!” “But how come I did never noticed him?” he said. She continued “one morning he was sitting near me and I had turned back to look at your facial expression, I wanted to see if you would feel jealous, but you were lost in your thoughts!! And that day when you alighted at Belle Rose and you stopped to look at me from the pavement, Javed (my bro) told me ‘why is that boy staring at you?’ and I was looking at you under my eyes so that he would not notice”..... Aslam replied “ you know Salma, I was so much involved in looking at you, appreciating you, thinking of you that I never paid heed of all that, I can’t make out whom you are talking of, but I am sure I will recognize him once you show him to me.” “Okay, the next time that he is around I will show you who is Javed. I bet you know him as he has many times travelled in this bus.” She said, and continued, “you are almost reaching Belle Rose Aslam, have a nice day, take care, see you this evening.” Aslam curved his lips and said good bye to her complaining that the time is not enough to talk with her and that he will wait for her at Rose Hill in the evening and heeded her to beware not to let his bro be around as they won’t, then be able to talk. He kissed he abruptly and stood up to go out, his eyes on her till he reached the door, and his usual staring at her from the pavement, till the bus leaves.... she waved him goodbye, this was the first time she did that which added joy to his day!
The first words he pronounced were, “You know, in my name there is your name and in your name there is mine…. Aslam – Salma…. “How do you know my name?” she asked slowly with a shaking voice. “Well the world is too small dear! And don’t tell me that you don’t know my name for I know that you know my name well!” he replied. She asked “And how do you know that I know your name? How can you be sure?” Well then Aslam related that many a times his friends have called him by his name in the bus or when he would be standing on the pavement to see her going, and on many other circumstances she did hear his friends calling him “ ASLAM” loudly in her presence!! After hearing this she quietly smiled….. After a while she asked, “And how come you know my name for my friends never called my name in your presence!” Aslam did a big “ha ha ha!”…&hellip ; she laughed back and said “Your ‘ha! ha! ha!’ is not a reply!” Then Aslam explained her that one of his friend lives near her house and works in the company he works, who gave the information about her name. “So you have a spy who looks over at me?” She asked seriously. “Oh no, please don’t look at it that way, I enquired about you with many of my friends who live at Phoenix, and he was the only one who had the right information. I wished to know your name, there is nothing out of this, and I was so happy to know that your name was Salma as it goes like a pair with my name, doesn’t it?” She smiled and nodded shyly. He told himself “Yeah! She is on the way it seems; hope there won’t be any hurdles ahead! God, bless me!” And she spoke “In Aslam and Salma there is the word “salam” also which means peace. Did you know?” He was amazed and said “Oh God! I never paid heed to that! That’s very true! So we are at peace is it?” She gave a smile screwing up her nose at him. He was feeling very happy and he felt his heart dancing inside. He found everything going on smoothly, and he did not have to plead and all that, he was too happy. And by that time the bus had reached Rose Hill and they had to alight. He stood up and gave way for her to go in the front, she murmured “please don’t walk by my side now, and don’t sit near me in the next bus please, and also don’t follow me!”...... They had by that time started walking along the bus to get down, and he replied behind her, “but why? I wish to sit with you as I have so many things to say, please allow me to sit near you, I would love it, please dear!” She turned back to tell him “Haven’t you already spoken a lot? You are too talkative, I have nothing more to say, and I don’t want to get troubles.” And she was out of the bus. Aslam was sad and felt a heavy burden over his heart! He felt suffocating and wished to shout her name!........But he followed her, and she turned back to see then hurried her steps towards the next bus they had to take. There was a queue! She had to stand and Aslam stood behind her!! They got to wait for almost 25 minutes for the bus to come, and Aslam was thankful to the sky that he got more time to be with her. He spoke. “I am sorry, but I could not do otherwise my dear, you see I also have to catch the same bus as you so have to be in the queue!” she clutched her teeth and severely said, “ will you please shut up? I told you not to talk with me!! People are looking at us and I don’t want to get any problems, understood?”.... Aslam was amazed and said, “Hey, come on dear! Where on earth is it the people’s problem if I am talking to you? AND HOW CAN YOU GET ANY KIND OF PROBLEM? HOW IS MY TALKING TO YOU RELATED TO PROBLEMS? COME ON IF YOU DONT LIKE THAT I TALK TO YOU JUST TELL ME I AM MOVING RIGHT AWAY! DO I GO? JUST SAY IT!” He said all this in a more serious tone than her words said to him! And she lifted her head up to look into in his face; she then bent down her head without saying any word! She was quiet. Aslam repeated “Do I go? Is it what you want?” She calmly, said. “I never said that.” “Then I will continue to talk with you, no matter whatever happens.” She did not reply, but kept quiet looking here and there as if looking for someone. Then she told him “I have two uncles who are bus conductors and a relative who is a bus driver and any time they can be passing by so I don’t want them to see you talking to me! And then there are many people who know me around here! “ “ no problem miss, I wont talk anymore, but please don’t prevent me to do so once inside the bus.” “Not if someone who knows me is the driver or conductor!”.... Aslam felt irritated!! And they were in the bus soon. And yes he got a seat near her, paid the fare for Phoenix, and whispered in her ears, “Is the driver or the conductor your relatives dear Miss Salma? She laughed loudly and moved her head negatively, looking in his eyes! Aslam looked in her eyes; they were beautiful, clear, crystal like he thought! He said “your eyes are too beautiful!” she bit her lips and bent down her head. He then said “I just want to say a prayer, and let me say it for you to hear, good God, make the traffic be jammed for more than an hour.” She could not hold her laughs and did it loudly and tapped him on his hand. She then asked as if not knowing the reason, “And why should there be such a traffic jam?” “Obviously, so that I would be in your company for longer moment!” he replied. Both laughed on this and Aslam told her how he loves her dresses and that he knows all her dresses, his preference for the blue gown, and the fuchsia two-piece, the yellow churidaar, and how he loved when she let her hair loose, how he loved her long hair and asked her never to cut it, and how much he likes her smile and her cool behaviour, her silence and timidity. He admired her way of pushing her hair over her forehead, and loved her way of looking with one eye at things when she doesn’t want to be noticed doing it. When he was saying all that, she was quietly listening and looking into his eyes attentively, following all his words with great concern. The traffic was really jammed and she remarked smiling, “your prayer has been heard!” he was amused and smiled back saying, “I wish the important prayer be granted too!” she asked, “and what is that?” he to reply, “ does it need saying that I am madly in love with you and want you to be mine for ever?” ....... to be continued in part 3
He worked in a company of software production. He was in the distribution department and was thus travelling all around the country, was 23 years of age. She worked in a factory manufacturing spectacles and was only 17 years old.
Aslam lived in an urban area called Highlands and the bus in which he travelled to reach his working place at Belle Rose, had to pass through the place called Phoenix, where Salma lived and was usually seen on the bus stop. It all happened one fine morning when she got in the bus and Aslam’s eyes went on her. He admired her from the back as she was sitting in the front… Now from Phoenix to Belle Rose it was a 20 minutes drive and during those minutes Aslam’s eyes did not move from her silhouette….. When he alighted, she kept sitting and from the road Aslam looked back in the bus to have a last glance at her and he found her looking at him, their eyes met for the first time on that morning The whole day she remained in his mind, her hair, dress, face, eyes, were all graved in his memory…… Aslam kept thinking where could she be going? Did she work? Will he see her again the next day? He thought it was only a one day show….. Yet the next morning he was expecting to see her again….. And when the bus reached Phoenix, at the bus stop where she had got in the day before, Aslam’s eyes started looking outside to see if she was there to get in, and his joy had no bound when he saw her standing in the queue waiting her turn to get in the bus! This day he did not sit at the back but in the front expecting that she gets a seat near him…… But someone who got in before her sat near him and she sat just two seats in front of him..... He tried his best to hear where for she will pay to the conductor, and according to the bus conductor’s reply while giving her the ticket, Aslam knew that she will alight at Rose Hill which is only a kilometre from Belle Rose where he usually alights. And again when he alighted he stood on the road and looked at her from the pavement and she looked back and had a slight smile, and he stood fixing at her till the bus departed!
This continued for about a month. Without any word said to each other.... Aslam was thinking of her night and day, and someday when she missed that bus in the morning Aslam would wait at Belle Rose on the pavement to wait and look into every other buses passing by to see if he will see her in another bus. And he at times did see her and some days not at all....
Thus one morning when they were both in the bus Aslam paid for Rose Hill instead of Belle Rose, he did not go to work only to accompany her so as to see where she will go, where she works, where she alights and all that.... And Salma always WAITS to see Aslam getting out of the bus at Belle Rose and on that day when she found he did not alight and the bus started to move, she turned back to look for him in the bus..... her face was pale and worried.... she thought he had forgotten to alight or was asleep!!? And Aslam was waiting to see if she will turn back to look at him on not seeing him alighting, he wanted to see if she cares..... and he was so happy to see her looking at the back, and when she found him smiling happily she felt that she was caught being caring for him, or she had some feelings for him hidden within her..... she blushed.... and smiled to herself..... she wished to ask him why he did not alight, she wanted to ask why he is not going to work on that day..... he wished she asked him that, he wished she talked to him, and she wished he talked to her.... form both side the timidity was invading their selves...
Now at Rose Hill bus terminus, when she alighted and started walking, Aslam followed her and she quickened her steps, and then she got in another bus! Aslam read the indicator, the bus was going to Saint Pierre. So she works at Saint Pierre he told himself! There was an industrial zone at that place..... and now, Aslam also got in that bus behind her, he only sat and kept looking at her admiring her in al the ways..... it was only a seven kilometres trip and they alighted and thousands of girls and women and men were found walking towards the industries.... Aslam felt lost among the crowd, and then she had joined her friends there and she was walking in a group of 10 to 15 girls.... he was more reluctant to approach her... so he followed from a distance and only wished to see in which factory she will go, as there were hundreds of factories in that zone.... and once he found her getting in, he left having enquired with other persons about the time at which that factory released the workers in the evening.
Now, Aslam had among all his friends one who was his closest and knew him very well. Aslam related everything about Salma to him. And that friend encouraged him to talk to her as it was high time to do it. Till now there had been no talks between Aslam and Salma, only their eyes communicated, they conveyed messages through the eyes only.... yet 2 months had now elapsed in that way of communicating....
And after two and a half months of looking at each other, of waiting to see each other in the bus, at the bus stop, of waiting for one to alight and look at each other from the pavement and all that, one afternoon Aslam went to wait for her at her working place in the evening!! He was feeling very hard to start a talk, he did not know what to say, how to say..... They saw each other; she was surprised to see him there at Saint Pierre in the evening! She had a disturbed look, and did not know what to do... he walked behind her, she hurried her steps.... she felt everybody were aware and were looking only at them....
At last once in the bus, Aslam sat close to her on the same seat. This was the first time they sat together after two and half months of knowing each other.... and when the conductor came to take the fare Aslam paid two for Rose Hill. She was tending her fare to be paid but when she saw Aslam paid she kept her money..... and, and he started the conversation.....

Inspiring Values of Unforgettable Teachers By Steve Brunkhorst
All of us recall special teachers — people who not only taught us but inspired us in ways that changed our lives. William Arthur Ward once said, "The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires." Here are five life-changing values inspired by unforgettable teachers.
The Teachers I Will Always Remember...
... Taught the Value of Learning and Knowledge
They were enthusiastic about their subject. However, they gave more than knowledge. They showed how learning could enhance creativity, spark interests, and uncover talents. They instilled in students a curiosity to learn and an undying passion to keep learning.
... Taught the Value of Respect
They treated others with honor. They explained how kind words, and sometimes silence, could prevent hurtful confrontations and turn enemies into friends. They taught the value of respect for the community as well as the individual. ... Taught the Value of Integrity
They demonstrated empathy for those who were ill or suffering from personal loss. They would go the extra mile to offer support. Their ethics inspired students to live with courage and approach life with honesty, dignity, and self-worth.
... Taught the Value of Responsibility
They taught that personal actions have consequences and that the individual must be accountable for his or her choices. They emphasized that when people think others are to blame for problems, that very thought is the real problem. They taught that each student was ultimately responsible for his or her learning and its impact on their future. ... Taught the Value of Perseverance
They taught that education continues until our last breath. They told stories about the hard times they had faced, and how God had often turned difficulties into blessings. They refused to let students quit after repeated failures. They demonstrated that "Faith is the assurance of things not yet seen."
Not all of these teachers taught in formal classrooms. Nor did they all have a formal education. Some of them are still teaching, and the education they provide is priceless.
I believe that the greatest gifts we can give our children are the same kind of values these teachers demonstrate. Then our children can also become unforgettable teachers, sharing values that will inspire happiness and faith for future generations.
The universe is so vast in relation to the matter it contains that it can be compared in the following way: A building 20 miles long, 20 miles wide and 20 miles high that contains 1 grain of sand.
The three most common elements in the universe are 1) hydrogen; 2) helium; 3) oxygen.
As late as 1820, the universe was thought to be 6,000 years old. It is now thought to be between 15 and 20 billion years old.
Scientists believe that hydrogen comprises approximately 90 to 99 percent of all matter in the Universe.
A bucket filled with earth would Weigh about five times more than the same bucket filled with the substance of the sun. However, the force of Gravity is so much greater on the sun that a man Weighing 150 pounds on our planet would Weigh 2 tons on the sun.
A space vehicle must move at a rate of 7 miles per second to escape the earth's Gravitational pull. This is equivalent to going from New York to Philadelphia in about twenty seconds.
There are approximately 10,000 pieces of equipment revolving around the earth. About 3,000 of these pieces are satellites, the rest are odd bits of Debris.
Astronomers believe that the universe contains one atom for every 88 gallons of space
