The winds are blowing heavily...the night is dark...the black sky has even swallowed the Moon and it's shining stars...for a breeze moment the night is surrounded by a scary silence...
Now we see a hospital and can hear cries and wails but the sounds got surpassed by a loud scream of a women in the OT and a man was pacing outside the OT surrounded by his brothers..
Soon the boy and his brothers heard the cry of a baby...and their eyes filled up..finally their wait was over...their baby is here...
After a while a nurse came out of the OT with a baby "Congratulation Mr Bawa you are blessed with a baby brother" and handed the baby to him who took the baby in his firm hands as the baby smiled in his arms and held his brother's finger with his tiny hands...
The brothers went aww on their little baby bro "bhaiya look he is so happy being in your arms" while his other youngest brother clicked a pic and spoke in excitement "welcome to our family junior...we all love you so much" the brothers smiled as they welcomed a new and youngest member of their family...
Suddenly there was a lot of commotion as a doctor rushed out of the OT "Mr Bawa we are sorry to inform you but your chachi died as soon as she gave birth to the baby and your chacha is taking his last breath and is repeatedly calling your name, I request you to see him one last time before it's too late"
The eldest Bawa staggered in pain...it was very difficult for him to see his chacha and chachi in their death bed...they were like his parents who loved him and his siblings like their own child to such an extent that they waited for him to turn 18 to give birth to their own child...
His younger brother kept a hand on his shoulder "you have to do this bhaiya...go talk with chachu...you are our pillar of strength...he needs you bhaiya"
His brother nodded and he forwarded his hands to take the baby from his bhaiya's arms but the baby started crying his lungs out as soon as it felt that he was going away from his bhaiya..both the brothers chuckled "it's ok beta i'll carry him inside the OT...chacha would want to see his baby too" and went inside the OT with a heavy heart...
As soon as he entered he saw his chachi laying on the hospital bed lifelessly as water formed in his eyes....that was his chachi...the only mother figure he had ever known...his own mother had never loved him and had died as soon as giving birth to his younger brother...from the time he gained his senses his chachi loved him so much...he used to sleep in her arms and forget the whole world, he used to make her run behind him all around the house to have is milk, he used to share all his feelings and secrets with her...but now every thing is shattered...it was not only her death but it killed something inside him too...but he was snapped into reality when the baby in his arms snuggled more in his arms as if assuring his bhaiya that he is there for him...
He smiled a little and kissed his forehead when he heard a whisper of his chacha who was gazing at them with love...
chacha: Now I can die in peace knowing that you will always be there for my child..and I know my son will never want for anything as long as you are there holding his hand...
The boy was just shedding tears as he witnessed his father like chacha losing his life..
Chacha: Take care of yourself and your brothers beta and forgive me for all my mistakes...there are a lot of things that you are not aware of but you will know them one day and I want your promise that day you will stand strong for your brothers and protect them...and forwarded his shaky hands to which HE kept his hand on his chachu's hand and uttered "PROMISE" with this he kissed his son's forehead and breathed his last breath....
