In London, we can see it's raining dogs and cats....Veer is gazing outside and closed his eyes as tears rolled down remembering the past....
Flashback:
Veer rushed to his younger brother's room to see him shivering....
Veer: shhh....shhhh....baccha....bhaiya is here....calm down baby
Arjun slowly opened his eyes "bhaiya....water..."
Veer made him drink water and then made him lay on his chest...
Veer" are you ok baccha"
Arjun nodded "tell me a story dadda"
Veer smiled....he loved it when Arjun called him dadda sometimes....it just made him feel the luckiest person...
Veer began to recite a story to his little one " So Once upon a time, there lived a shepherd boy who was bored watching his flock of sheep on the hill. To amuse himself, he shouted, "Wolf! Wolf! The sheep are being chased by the wolf!" The villagers came running to help the boy and save the sheep. They found nothing and the boy just laughed looking at their angry faces.
"Don't cry 'wolf' when there's no wolf boy!", they said angrily and left. The boy just laughed at them.
After a while, he got bored and cried 'wolf!' again, fooling the villagers a second time. The angry villagers warned the boy a second time and left. The boy continued watching the flock. After a while, he saw a real wolf and cried loudly, "Wolf! Please help! The wolf is chasing the sheep. Help!"
But this time, no one turned up to help. By evening, when the boy didn't return home, the villagers wondered what happened to him and went up the hill. The boy sat on the hill weeping. "Why didn't you come when I called out that there was a wolf?" he asked angrily. "The flock is scattered now", he said.
An old villager approached him and said, "People won't believe liars even when they tell the truth. We'll look for your sheep tomorrow morning. Let's go home now".
So baccha remember never to lie....instead of his reply he heard his soft snores and smiled at his innocent kid and slept hugging his little brother to his heart....

I miss you but I know you will be atleast safe....and wiped his tears and gazed at the twinkling stars trying to find his brother in them.....
