Just Another Day To Go: 1, #2

By Saba A.S.

The protagonist, Ali, is a pilot from Jordan who spends his life hopping from one lady to another. Regardless of the negative effects it has on them, he is strongly linked to her and has a younger sister called Noor. They go on a European vacation together once she finishes school. Along with his brother, he has an older sibling called Karim, and he values family life highly. In contrast to Ali, his parents come from a modest but happy household; his dad sells carpets and his mom teaches elementary school.
A Noor takes her own life at one point in the novel, leaving the family's fortune to a Croatian man—and, of course, Ali—on top of everything else. Since Ali was blamed by Noor's family for her death, they cut ties with him. He was clearly not responsible enough, as they can see.
Here, Ali undergoes a radical transformation; he obtains a new perspective on life, and destiny strikes back at him via his sister; he cheated on women, abusing them.
The Ukrainian girl he meets on one of his travels becomes his soulmate; they marry and he has a son with her, but she and the baby both pass away shortly after delivery. While in an aircraft accident, he is arguing with someone and feels guilt for his past life.

Tales of Ali's Childhood

Embracing one's strengths while overcoming one's shortcomings is a continual battle that follows a person from birth to death.

Residing on a white bed inside a medical ward adorned with gray walls and devices that track his heart rate and blood pressure, Ali ponders whether this marks the beginning or conclusion of his struggle.

Watch the mask he's wearing cover his lips as he looks up at the ceiling. Like an ember from a fire, a solitary tear slides down his cheek.

Maintain an objective stance; the nurse has experience caring for people toward the end of their lives. She swings by to make sure everything is running well with the machinery. No matter how long it takes, they both know he has exhausted all other possibilities. Not enough, not too much, just perfect.

While Ali was away, his thoughts played tricks on him, rehashing fragmented recollections of his whole life.

The sun-kissed plains of Ali's homeland were the setting for his voyage, and the birds he encountered there provided him with endless material for his artwork. A profound yearning for the clouds below him prompted him to think of flying into the sky. All of the sweat, all of the body's soreness, and all of the hard days of training contributed to his final objective. It was a spiritual triumph for his soul as well as an aeronautical one; his maiden flight was a triumph for both. 

The years leading up to Ali's maturation were woven into a beautiful tapestry of meaningful encounters and serene dreams. A child of a bustling Amman home, he came from poor beginnings. The value of hard labor and knowledge were instilled in him by his parents, a teacher and a carpenter, respectively.

The sky fascinated Ali from a young age. Observing the planes as they painted silver lines on blue backgrounds would keep him glued to the rooftop for hours. His mind flies with each jet since he dreams of becoming an airline pilot one day.

School was a moment of rebellion and conformity for Ali when he was a child. His innate intelligence and skill in the fields of geography and physics fueled his wonder in the cosmos. Conversely, his charming depravity was well recognized; he often persuaded his companions to engage in little adventures within the vicinity.

As Ali approached adolescence, his desire to see the globe intensified. Reading about great explorers and pilots gave him the will to go his own way. Although his parents sometimes reprimanded him for daydreaming, they recognized his dedication and encouraged him to follow his aspirations.

Flying wasn't Ali's only life goal, but he did seek it. He loved being a local son and being able to experience the lively markets, spicy scents, and friendly vibes of his hometown. Despite the fact that his ambitions propelled him to greater heights, these events served to anchor him.

Even as a teenager, Ali was determined to achieve his goals. He was able to pay for flying lessons with the dinar he saved up from his several jobs. His determination paid off, and the young guy who had formerly gawked at planes from rooftops was soon piloting one.

Regardless matter how little their influence was, Ali was profoundly affected by his unique family. Mahmoud, the man who brought him up, was humble and truthful. In the same careful manner that he raised his own children, he built furniture with the same ability as a master carpenter. Despite the wear and tear on Mahmoud's hands from working with wood and chisels, they demonstrated his dedication to his job and his loved ones.

His mother Lamia was the rock upon which his family rested. Their modest house was brimming with literary instruction and life lessons while she worked as a teacher. Ali was swept away to worlds beyond the Jordanian sky on his very first excursion
