CHAPTER 15


    1:00 pm Thursday, in Bosnia and Herzegovina


    H & A Summit Holdings, Inc., Chief Executive Office


    Mateo- Atif’s father is talking with his father Haris about what happenedst night.


    Mateoin to his father.


    His trying to convince his father to allow Atif to enjoy such little thing that he think make his son


    somewhat feel a little bit happy.


    Mateo knew from the start that Atif feel lonely all the times in spite of luxurious life that he have.


    Atif have no freedom to decide what good for himself.


    All is dictated by his grandfather Haris.


    Although Atif can manage and decide what good for their business but he can’t do what he wants for


    himself.


    Haris is always strict to Atif.


    For Atif is a good child he always obey his father and grandfather from childhood until now even though


    he is in the right age to decide for himself.


    Atif is submissive grandson. He cannot disobey his grandfather Haris.


    He don’t want to give his grandfather a headache and distress.


    Atif don’t want his grandfather Haris to get angry that’s why he always obey his grandfather.


    Even though Haris is so strict to Atif, he means a lot to Atif.


    Atif is really grateful having his grandfather in his life that’s why he always sacrifice his own happiness


    just to obey his grandfather wants.


    Mateo continue to convince his father Haris to let Atif keep thedy as a friend.


    Mateo see no reason to cut Atif and Aliyah’s friendship.


    “Father, Atif is old enough to decide whom he will choose to talk with, old enough to choose friends….”


    “…but he is not allowed to have a rtionship or marry ady who is not belong to the society where


    we belong.” Haris interrupt on what Mateo trying to exin to him.


    “But they are just friends, Father.” Mateo insist.


    “How did you know Mateo?” asked Haris in loud voice.


    “When I checked Atif in his room this early morning, I’m able to read their conversation on Atif phone.


    Atif is still sleeping when I went to his room. He is drunkst night and wake upte this morning. He


    didn’t notice that I enter his room.” Mateo exined.


    “Still I don’t like thatdy to be his friend.” Haris said unconvinced to what Mateo said.


    “But why, Father?” eximed Mateo.


    “Oh sure you read their conversation but you didn’t notice the profile picture of thatdy. You didn’t


    notice that she looks like Haya. That’s why Atif befriended thatdy. Maybe he is imagining that he is


    still talking to Haya. We all know that Haya is dead long time ago. I don’t want Atif to be reminded of


    her memories for Atif can’t concentrate on managing our businesses.” Mateo concluded.


    “But Father how did you know that thedy looks like Haya? She don’t have any photo on her profile or


    even in her timeline. I don’t see any photo in her social media ount.” Mateo can’t believe to what his


    father said for he don’t see even a single photo of Aliyah on that ount.


    “Are you trying to say that I am wrong Mateo? Why don’t we look for that ount to see that what I’m


    telling you is true?” Haris dare his son Mateo to prove what he said is true.


    “Okay Father let’s look for that ount. I want to see which photo you’re talking about.” Mateo agreed


    to his father. Reached theptop and searched the ount of Aliyah.


    After a minute, Mateo saw the social media ount of Aliyah.


    He called Haris attention for the old man is very busy signing the papers on his office table.


    “Look, Father here it is. I told you there is no photo.” Mateo said.


    Haris can’t believe it. The photo on the profile of thedy has changed.


    Haris shook his head while Mateo is still searching for another social media tform where there is


    possible that Aliyah have an ount but he found none.


    “Maybe she changed her profile picturest night that’s why we can’t find it now Mateo.” Haris


    concluded.


    “Maybe.” Mateo agree to his father.


    “I wonder if Atif saw that photo Mateo.” Haris said.


    “Maybe he don’t see it Father.” Mateo answered.


    YES Mateo is right.


    Atif didn’t notice that Aliyah change her profile picture.


    Yeah! Aliyah uploaded her real photo but she changed it again after an hour for her mind changed.


    Instead of uploading her real photo, Aliyah upload a photo of a woman wearing a ck jacket with a


    hood covering her whole face and ce the caption on the photo: “I don’t want the world to see me.”


    Atif and Mateo didn’t notice the real photo of Aliyah.


    Unfortunately, Haris saw it before Aliyah change it.


    And it made the old man too worried.


    Why?


    Haris knew that Haya is so important to Atif.


    Atif mourned for a long time when Haya died.


    Atif was so upset that time.


    He was depressed that time.


    Haris witnessed how Atif cried when his friend was lost.


    He cannot move on for a long period of time.


    But with the helped of Haris and Mateo, Atif ovee his grief. And was able to move on.


    Haris don’t want Atif to be reminded of the memories of Haya.


    Haris is so afraid that if Atif continue to make friends with thatdy, thatdy will only reminds Atif of


    Haya.


    And if the memories of Haya returned to Atif he can’t concentrate on his work.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Haris is so afraid that Atif will be disturbed.


    He don’t want Atif mood to be ruined for everything will be at risk.


    Their businesses are at risk.


    Haris can’t afford if Atif will be reced by somebody as his sessor as a chief executive of H & A


    Summit Holdings, Inc.


    He trained Atif very well so that he will get the position that Atif deserve.


    That is the fulfillment of his promised to his best friend Alem.


    Why the fulfillment of his promised to Alem?


    THE TRUTH IS…


    Atif is not really a real son of Mateo.


    Not a real grandson of Haris.


    BUT…


    THE LOST SON OF ALEM!!


    He is the son of AMILA and ALEM.


    ATIF is the poor little boy who was wandering around in the cold streets during thatte bitterly cold


    winter’s evening. Barefoot. Lost his shoes while running fast on the icy streets chased by wild dogs.


    Sheltered himself on the footbridge when the night fall.


    THAT’S why sometimes Atif have a nightmare that he is running on the icy street of the city and he is


    still a little boy on his dream.


    Sleeping on the footbridge with snowkes falling on his hair and body.


    THE poor little boy who always wait for Haya in front of the fast food building.


    The little boy who was saved by Haya.


    HE is the friend of Haya who left by Haya at the house of Haris.


    He is also the poor little boy who always appeared on Aliyah’s dream almost every night.


    BUT still Aliyah don’t remember who is that little boy. And don’t remember who Haya is.


    And still Aliyah don’t find the answers to her questions:


    “Why they appear on my dreams?”


    “Who are they?”


    “Are they rted to me?”


    THOSE are the questions that Aliyah keep on asking every time she wake up on her dream.


    WHAT is the truth behind that?


    Will Aliyah have the answer for that questions in the end?


    Is she really rted to Haya and Atif?


    Or it’s only a result of psychological disorder that she have?


    Just a dream that have no meaning?


    Anyway, what is the real name of ALIYAH?


    She has an amnesia right?


    And Aliyah is not her real name?


    Why she looks like Haya?


    Are they twins? Sisters? Cousins? Or Rtives?
