The Lost Love

The Family Drama

Its 23'rd November, 1992. Arvind Sinha is waiting outside the delivery ward.
"Its a boy sir, congratulations",a nurse said to him.
Arvind ran into the ward to meet his one and only heir."He is so cute!"exclaimed her mother. "Yes,he is. My son",said his father with tears in his eyes."Raghav, Raghav Sinha!",and he gave his blood a name that was to be known as a symbol of love to the world.
              Days passed, the Sinha family had a velvet couch feeling because they were blessed with a boy, which is the most common stereotype of Indian families, a boy is like having Lord in home. But Raghav was unknown to all this and he enjoyed his life a lot (a 2 year toddler would obviously enjoy his life but he enjoyed it even more). Raghav's father wanted him to become a doctor (he was an engineer by the way and an unsuccessful novelist).
He never wanted Raghav to consider any Art subject because he thought that there wasn't any life in it.
             Years flipped, Raghav was a mid-school boy now, a teenager. He was an excellent guitarist and singer as well. His oration skills made him a respected feather of his school. All the teachers liked him and he also treated everyone politely. He had a good sense of humour and was an excellent athlete. He was a perfect dude. But his father wasn't proud of all that. He thought that it was just a waste of time.
             Parent teacher meeting day came in Raghav's school. "He doesn't even know what a Line segment is! Arvind Sir he is a really bright student, you have to work hard on him. Co-curricular activities are okay but he needs to stress on studies",his teacher was complaining about him to his father."I will",said his father,his head hanging below.
             "No singing, no games from now. I want you to become a Doctor. Study hard or live alone",Mr.Sinha was purely angry.
             "Just 1 year papa,just 1. Then I'll show you what I can do",Raghav said and smiled. It seemed like he was challenging his father.
             "I don't know what he is up to",cried his Father and went away.
      With huge ribbons folded, Raghav won the best guitar player and won 2 consecutive singing shows. He was feeling energized and really positive. His father knew that he was proven wrong so he also felt pride in his son's glorious victory. But other than his parents, there was one more who was feeling proud of his success. Someone who was waiting for his arrival in her heart. She was the one who was to change Raghav's life. Raghav's family was happy with his achievements but when Raghav went to school, he was surprised to find that girls were becoming mad for him. He was a cool minded person and he controlled everyone who came to him for his word. He was feeling like a young celebrity now.
