It was in the afternoon when Samad said: “Qadamkheyr! I want to go to the front. Let’s get back to Hamadan together?” I said: “You want to go to the front, so want me for what? A few days I stay with Sediqeh and then I'll return.” He said: “No, my Mom won’t doubt, if you come with me. But if I go alone, she’ll know that I want to go to the front. She is still mournful and heartbroken.” We returned to Hamedan that afternoon. This time we brought Sattar’s daughter, Somayeh, with ourselves again. The next day, Samad woke up early, prayed and said: “Qadamkheyr! I’m going, please take care of our kids. Take after Sattar’s Somayeh too. Don’t let her be unhappy; also let her stay here till whenever she wants.”    |
