Intense passion for swimming

Finding a lanky boy in a dark red T-shirt wandering around as though he had just returned from his regular daily swimming practice was obviously a total surprise. This  was not the case at all. He can't explain why he decided on routine swimming, despite his considerable height. He didn't appear to realise that the chlorine in the water would turn his face dark. He and two other older boys were swimming without realising this important fact. This will continue for a minimum period of one full month, as was revealed. Every day, these three lads go to a nearby pool to practice swimming. But the younger one did not go for the usual practice  on the particular day since he had developed a slight cough, which was definitely learned following his smart disclosure in the night.  He seemed to be unaware of the fact that chlorine in the water would darken his fair face. Unaware of this significant reality, he and two others continued swimming. This  goes on regularly but sudd...

Communication gap comes to forefront


Strangely enough, the father and elder brother attended night prayer at the new time at the mosque they used to go to. They were even cognizant of the revised schedule. What remained shocking was that a little more religious-minded younger brother did not reach the nearby mosque within the altered time. He clarified that he was altogether unaware of the changed time exactly. 

How could it possibly be? He used to remain in touch with the people at the mosque. In such a condition how has he failed of the latest changes brought in the day's last or night prayer timings?

His arrival was noticed when the prayer had been completed. The time has undoubtedly lessened given the ensuing seasonal changes. Some find it too early while others have not sustained it as reasonable. Though contradictory reactions have been drifting, devouts are joining the mosque for the night prayer according to the latest time. 

Meanwhile, one experienced aged person making his points pointed out that the complete dearth of consensus on every simple matter always creates such an odd situation. The time changes from time to time but regular attendees get to know of the time changes a little later.

Switching the description from the recently announced timing to the family's one person's ignorance, it looks relatively too strange, doesn't it?  Belonging to the same singular family they remain victims of communication gaps. 

They might usually meet several times during the day and even share one common house. They deal in similar business even. So how could their interaction be wholly denied?

The son talks to his father and also meets his elder brother but their conversation seems to be lacking at least on the prayer time. If two of the family are aware of the altered time, how could one remain unaware? If he was not present on the particular day, his total ignorance is worth fathoming.

Just by arriving at the mosque gate thereon, he was positively thrilled by suddenly discovering the change in the prayer time. It was wholly not uncommon reaction. It was done just to go with the impending winter days.
