As the celebrations for National day of UAE fuels up, I was excited about the holidays and to turn it into study leaves for the forthcoming exam. Inspite of this exam fever and the not-yet-met time lines for the studies, i told Dad, come on Dad, let's go atleast to fish market, the least time i could spare; one hour.

| Dad, i know you care for me :) |
i didn ask Dad, his availability or his plans for the day! Is this called a PRIVILEGE. An authority factor, which a wife does not have to her husband, a father not have to his son, or even a daughter not have to her mother. Why Dad's are so tender and soft to his daughters, much beyond all the scientific explanations, there is something which ligate the pericardium- a divine touch. My tears turn precious only when i cry to him. His heart beats faster, when i panic. His prayer's 45 minutes condenses his anxieties for his daughter.
I recollected all these out of a phone call which interrupted my business talk with my colleague. Here it goes:
" A stressful development review of the year, where i was totally anxious on my future with the company, the upcoming projects will launch by February and then on my allocation will be challenging.........
He interrupted " I get another call from home, sorry, i guess its something serious, Can i call you back?"
A disappointed me: " Sure".
...a few seconds later he called me back for the discussion to proceed.
I asked him " What happened at home? Is evrything alright?"
He laughed, as soon as he answered the call, his daughter: " Uppa, Fax is a faster mode of commnication, True or False?
Father: (Strangely, yet not understanding the scenario ) True.
Daughter again: " Fax communicates faster than e-mail, True or False?
Father: With confidence, and understanding partially, that this is her studies) " False"
Daughter: Bye...and she hangs up.
Laughter sparked amidst my tensed mood.
I told my friend " Man, this is a daughter's privilege".
She doesnot care, where my dad is? or with whom he is busy with, all she needs is to re-instate her authority over her dad.
Even if she is married, it remains. that's why a dad with daughters are the blessed.
