"What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable."
The man who didn't believe in smiles, the man who hated showing what he truly felt, couldn't control his emotions when he saw the effort a 'stranger' had taken to lift his Ammi's mood.
He was upset and angry because of the humiliation his mother had to suffer for a fault that wasn't her own and was really in no mood to have chocolate cake in a bedroom.
But Zoya's little gesture, that brought a smile on his mother's face, melted his heart and for a moment, he was no longer a successful business tycoon; he was just a son who was happy to see his mother smile.
He was just a man, wondering at how sweet and caring a woman could be, especially one who wore jeans (Ya Allah!) and was a lying, rule-breaking, pepper spray advocate.
That smile. UFF!
I'm not a huge fan of KSG, but I must say
Asad Ahmad Khan is really starting to grow on me.
