" Vikash Pa.. Are you free?" Astha's voice distracted Vikash's unpleasant and sour thoughts. He put down his newspaper which he was pretending to read.
" I am always free for my three princesses. Come. Have a seat..!"
The atmosphere of the house became chaotic. Joy's soul was crying and Vihaan stated what Joy said.Andy felt suffocated by his words. He was not in a state of mind to clear all doubt; to answer him . With a thud he sat on the sofa. Tears were rolling down from his eyes and he looked pale and exhausted .But Mina, she snorted with a rageful voice , " You fool, you knucklehead, you moron.. You do not deserve to be friends with Andy.. Today I also regretted being in love with you. You never deserve to be my child's father.Jessica is your daughter, not Andy 's . This time Andy finally regained his senses and gestured to her to stay calm.. V
Vihaan was in deep thought at that time, when Andy proposed him a job to be caretaker for four old-age people.The TV was on at that time and Andy 's 2years daughter jumped excitedly , " Yeeee.. Papa.. Papa.." she was pointing to the TV to show something.Her action caught Vihu's attention too and he saw one animal news channel showing the live birth of an elephant baby. Vihu's mind stroke on that news and he remembered Tina 's case when her soul left, after a few minutes a female dog delivered 5 puppies and here after Joy left this TV channel showing a live coverage of elephant birth. He had a question: it's just coincidence or nature's cycle of life.
Time flew and one years passed. In that one year Vihaan helped 10 spirits and he understood the life cycle theory. When souls leave the place after bidding final goodbye to their respective people it takes a new birth. In animals, birds, and other creatures not in or as humans.VIHU's granny was still following him without fail and they both failed what the last wish or task which should be finished by her which was still pending.Vihu visited ten cities , three villages of three states of India. He was so glad that he could see nature's beauty and could meet a lot of people; also could understand family values, friendship and society's customs, rituals' pros and cons. When his grandpa ( Mr. V.K.Nair) had told him storie
Vihaan carried on his journey with Cap.Dutt's soul and took a train to Village of Cap.Dutt, which was situated near the mega city of state M.Number of people going back to the village on normal days were lesser. Train almost empty. Vihaan thought many times ( it's my luck or India 's population is so short or people have their own vehicles so much that they are not using public transport more.)But he never discussed nor asked . Whatever the condition was for others but it's good for him. He could enjoy his travels and destinations.After a 3 hours journey, the train stopped and Cap.Dutt told Vihaan that he should change the train.Vihaan did as he
After a long journey finally Vihu got off the train. It was his birthday and he hadn't got any nightmares full night for which his granny was concerned all the time . He was very tired and starved due to last night he hadn't eaten anything.Cap.Dutt told him yesterday that from the railway station to his home there were no public transport facilities they had . So Vihu had to use private transport and it's one time cost would be 100INR fixed.Vihu counted, he had only 300INR. So when he wanted to return back, he would again need 100 and then for a train ticket extra. So he gave up the thought to spend money on food.He found a free w
Vihu was trying single handed to stop the crowd movement , which was aggressively coming toward him but how it was possible. They bunched in numbers and he was alone." STOP…. STOP….. PLEASE LISTEN ME .. ATLEAST. I …I JUST WANNA HELP THAT GRANDPA. I AM NOT A THIEF." He remembered his past life when his two elder sisters Astha and Vincy had blamed him for stealing books from Aska. Even they both had beaten him up for that. And in that moment he was going to be beaten up by the crowd.Tears almost broke his eyes lashes and about to roll but all heard a sharp and loud voice and the situation changed in the blink of eye."
From afternoon to evening, Vihu worked hard. Whether making and mixing raw materials or shifting materials from one place to another. Even he easily carried 25kg cement bags on his back. Workers, Who were before laughing at him, were astonished . How hard work he did during that half day job; but the brightness of his face still as on. Like still he had stamina to do more work without complaining; without resting.It was time to pay the daily salary to workers. All workers were standing in a queue and Vihu also, but at last with that lady who had offered him food in the afternoon." You worked so hard. " she patted his back and appreciated his job.
Sandhya got off from the bed and fixed her clothes. When she reached the door , she stopped for a whole to see Vikash's condition.She said to herself under her breath,( I know, you must have found out everything; where he is and in which condition he is. But it's you who demanded him to leave the house. So I just forced my son to be obedient to his father ; he is just respecting your words. And I wish, the whole life , he will do the same and never ever come back to you. I wish you burnt under your remorse like this ;your whole life. It's you who spoiled my life ; hid the truth of my family and ruined my innocent son's childhood .)Vikash was still set on the bed like a statue. There was no movement in his body, no voice of w
