Another Mix-Up

Last Wednesday night, I and my dad went to my brother's prize distribution function in our beloved Pakistan International School Jeddah ... The invitation had come to my dad to attend this function and collect the prize ....

I didn't want to go as I would meet my former teachers ... I didnt want to confront any of them ... My dad gave me his piece of mind when I said that ... so I agreed to go ...

Here's what happened ... Dads of many of the students were there to collect their sons' prizes ... What those idiot volunteers should have done ... they should have conformed before the function, whose dads or brothers are present and whose are not ... If the dad wasnt there ... they were sending proxies instead ....

It was a hilarious situation when a dad went on the stage and the prize was already given to a proxy ... lol .... this happened thrice ... so to avoid this mishap I informed them beforehand that I will be collecting the prize for Muhammad Muzammil Mukhtar ....

I was sitting among aged persons ... some of them bald ... the rest grey haired ... and obviously I was uncomfortable ... Anyway .... after a long wait which included the Principal's lame speech and some boring Qaumi Naghmay ... my turn came ...

"For Overall 1st Position in 2nd Year Pre-Eng. .... Muhammad Muzammil Mukhtar .... His father Sheikh Mukhtar Hussain will come to collect the prize" ... U dumb MFs ... I got up the stage and the chief guest had a surprised look on his face ... I said in a low voice " I am his brother " and he was relieved.
