Baba, is that the building you helped build?
It is so tall. My eyes cant see all the way up. They get lost in the clouds. Did you really go all the way up there? Did it not scare you. I would be terrified. The day we heard that one uncle had fallen and died, ma cried so much. We prayed everyday that Allah would keep you safe. Can we go up and see?
We don’t need to buy tickets. You just tell them that you want to show your children what you built.
Why not?
The tickets cost an entire month’s salary!
It’s OK baba. I’m sure its prettier to look upwards, than down.
