A boy who wanted to give a good life to his parents studied hard. He knew that his parents had given him everything even when they could not afford. His parents were happy for him since he had stood first in his final exams and was hoping to get a good job. Fortunately, he got a job that required to him to move outside the country. He did not want to go away from his parents since there was no one to take care of them when he was gone but he had no other choice.
Even when he reached abroad, he used to call his parent every day, sometimes even three or four times a day. He was also able to send them a good amount of money, which was quite enough for them to fufill the necessity. Every time he would call his parents, they would ask him to come back to his own country. Even son had the same thing in the back of his mind. After all, he went abroad, to earn some money so that he could finally come back to his motherland and take care of his parents.
Months later, son finally managed to get a few days off and came back to his country. His parents were on the top of the world. Their hard work has finally paid off. Their son was working for a big organization and that too abroad. Son was also happy to meet his parent after a long time. Parents did not want their son to go abroad without getting married this time. Soon got married, parents were happy, so was the newlywed couple.
After fifteen days, son went back abroad along with his wife. Time went by, son used to call his parents but not very often. His wife gave birth to son and when he told the news to his parents, they requested him to come back so that they could see their grandson. Son tried but could not manage to get leave.
After a few months, son received a call from a neighbor that his parents are not well, he must come back soon. He tried but could not make it. His parents died. He could not even meet them.
Years later, he decided to come back to his own country for good but had to leave his son since he was studying there in a reputed school. The couple came back and their son who got an opportunity to work abroad itself denied coming back at any cost.
The couple spent all their lives waiting to see their son and his family. Even when they died, their son could not come back.
Money once was a necessity but then took over almost everything in the world. However, its it more important than meaningful relationships.
