3rd person's pov :

Beam opens his eyes in an empty dark room . He looks around . It looks like morning outside . "Forth ..."

"Forth ..."

"Huh ! Oh you are awake ? " Forth comes out of the kitchen .

Beam turns on the light from bedswitch . "What were you doing in the dark ?"

"N..nothing .. I was just ..! Are you hungry ? " Forth asks avoiding Beam's question .

"Umm no ! I will eat later . Where is Fifth ?"

"He is sleeping in the cradle . I .. I was packing his stuff ." Forth sighs .

Beam frowns "huh ?"

"Umm ... Beam ! The orphanage .. is ready to take Fifth in his six months . So .."

"What do you mean by ready to take Fifth ?" Beam frowns . He stands up and walks towards the cradle .

"They ... Will .. you know what we want .. after one year .." Forth sighs . He has to be happy . He needs to sound happy but how ...

"Don't joke around Forth ? I am surely not likking this . " Beam stops .

"Beam ..I am not joking . I am serious . Lam has friends who works for that orphange . They requested for Fifth and they agreed to take Fifth . .. " Forth smiles while breathing deeply .

Beam looks at Forth with blank eyes . Is Forth really smiling ?

"But ... " Before he could answer anything they heard a knock on the door .

Forth walks towards the door with happy steps .

..............

Beam's pov :

They are taking Fifth ? Why ? Who requested them to take Fifth ? And Forth is happy ? He is not gonna miss Fifth ? Me ?

"Beam .. my son .. why are you crying ?"

I look up "Miam aunt ?"

I touch my cheeks . Am I crying ?

I look at Forth . He is avoiding my eyes . Does he really want to leave us ?

.................

3rd person's pov :

Forth comes out of the house with hurried steps . He looks at Lam standing at the parking lot with teary eyes .

"L... lam .." he brusts into tears .

Lam hugs Forth hurriedly "It's ok ..."

Forth keeps on sobbing . "He cried Lam ...he .."

Lam stays silent . He always thought Beam is harmful for Forth . Beam should not be in his life . But now , when it actually time to part , he feels it's wrong .

It feels like messing with the perfectly fitted puzzle .

"Are you really going to give Fifth to the police ?" Lam asks after sometimes .

" No ... never . " Forth breaks the hug and wipes his tears .

Lam sighs . He knew it the very moment when Forth agrees to Pha . Forth has other plans .

"What is the plan ?" Lam asks .

"I .. have called Anwii , you know her from our college ." Forth asks .

"Anwii , Founder of the NGO club which helps poor kids with their education , every weekends ? " Lam asks back .

"Yeah !" Forth nods .
