SUNNY is dead! I jumped out of my bed, my wife cried with agony as death was too soon to wreak my young cousin. A brilliant young lad in his mid20s, he would make people happy with a potion of his warmheartedness and laughter.
More importantly he was the life of the family and friends and whosoever he interacted with became spell-bound as they listened to him.
The deepest wound inflicted was upon the parents who have now lost their life which was always on the Sunny side.
The irony is that he was killed in a car crash on main Khyaban-i-Hafiz on May 21 in Karachi. A toddler of American School driving his BMW 7 series, out there with a licence to kill, rammed into the unfortunate vehicle which was carrying my cousin.
At that very moment the toddler called help from home, where his mother escorted his dear one back home and to safety, abandoning the car he had hit at a lightning speed which contained two young lads breathing their last sighs for life.
In a country like ours where no one comes to help, miraculously some passersby aided them to the hospital.
My cousin passed away on the way to the hospital whereas the other is fighting for his life.
Dear parents, please let this be a message for you all that life does not come cheap, we should ensure safety of our children and other children who are near and around us.
We cannot afford to give our children handguns without licences so that they can become trigger-happy while enjoying the shot, end a precious life of a loved one.
It’s not the kid to blame but the parents who allow such luxuries to their under-aged children.
Today it’s my sorrow, tomorrow it can be yours. Sunny ! may God rest your soul in peace. You will be always remembered in our hearts. KASHIF CHAUDHRY Karachi
