Mahmood khan at 84
My mother called me the other day, and we talked about most everything. My mother is 65, a very youthfull 65, she is still beautifull. When i started this site, my7 first rant was about her, and her influence on me for my love of books and writing. Mahmood khan my grandfather got my mother married at the age of fifteen, and Mahmood khan himself had been married at age sixteen to my grandmother who is one year younger than him. ( keep your math straight, you'll need it). They had my mother when Mahmood khan was nineteen, and my grandmother eighteen,( you still with me), so by the time my mother married my father she was fifteen, my father twenty eight, and Mahmood khan thirty four.
My mother told in the conversation that she had recieved a telephone call from her father, Mahmood Khan, and he had told her how he misses her, remembering when she was fourteen with beautifull long Black hair, and how he wishes he could turn back time and be able to caress her young daughter's hair, and then he started to cry. My mother had a lot to tell him, but she could not, since he was so shaken and was crying. But it was surprising to her that a man at Mahmood khan's age of Eighty Four, after all these years, without ever trying to get close to any of his nine daughters and three sons, suddenly has realised what he has missed. Well my mother could not bring herself to say it, but I would, A bit late grandpa, a bit late.
Well writing about my Grandfather's life has been always on my mind, I even wrote about sixty pages at one point and then Amin was born and I lost any passion for it. God willing if I ever get to finish the book I am writting now, I might take another stab at it. As the first born of an old aflent family in Iran, and blessed by very good looks and high style, Mahmood khan has lived a very interesting life, and I think I have to, I definitely do have to write a book about him.

You know what my question is going to be...
