It must have been stars, what else explains why we met? Why and how he managed to love me.
Every night since then, stars appeared much closer, right up to my palms reach. But the sun was left far behind in the ripples of the dark. The deserted night stretched 3 years long without any hope of the breaking dawn."
-Meera
Dear Reader,
Have you ever wondered the relation of Sun and Sunflower?
A question boggled Nivaan since age eight,
"What do sunflowers do at night time, after the sun has sunk for the night?"
The rest of the world just exists, sun dawns for sunflowers, such is their story. Being least scientific, after his science class, the innocent brain of Nivaan conceives an incomplete story of sun and sunflower.
One selflessly showers its love and other unquestioningly devotes itself.
"You see..." He reasons with his mother, "God even blessed sunflower with the vibrant yellow, just as sun. He wanted us to show what love is."
"But what do sunflowers do at night time, after the sun has ceased to exist?"
After Meera's mother passes away, he makes a promise to himself.
"I and Meera are going to be like and sun and sunflowers. Always there of each other." Such was the truth of their innocence; two children weave their world in silent synchronization with each other.
The ever outgoing, vibrant Nivaan and little scared beautiful Meera. They grow up in the small happy shell of their own, where they lived and rest of the world just existed.
Follow Nivaan to the unusual story of love, where he actually lives to find out, "What do SunFlowers do after the Dusk, when Sun has ceased to exist."
Witness the pain of the longings and darkness. For the world is full of wonder, love and everlasting longings. And faith, lot of faith.
