As he woke up from his nightmare, he found himself in a beautiful garden filled with tulips of various colours... A little farm house where his mother is doing tasty cupcakes and his father is chopping woods for fire. Thre were butterflies filling the sky and the sweet scent of soil was all over the place. He did not remember that place to be his home. But he couldn't wish for less. He sat on the grass bed and took in a deep breath. 'What a beautiful life I have'- he thought to himself. There is a smile of content on his lips. A little girl with a paper fan ran towards him- "Brother! You always sleep here... Mom is calling you for breakfast... Hurry, brother or else I am gonna eat your breakfast too". It was his little sister, who he has to protect with all his life. He was thinking what to give her for her birthday the next day. She loves flowers. 'How about making a flower hair band?' His little sister might love it.
Suddenly, the nightmare from before, popped in his head. He walked into his house all sad and depressed. His mom noticed and asked what happened. He told his mom about his nightmare of losing all his family in an accident. His mom consoled him saying that"It is okay, dear. It is not your fault. You have to keep on smiling. We will always be with you. Don't be afraid, okay?" As his mom says these words, his sister was holding onto his hands. His father stepped towards him and said-"He is my boy- he can never be weak. Isn't it right, my boy?" The boys' eyes were already filled with tears. He couldn't understand why they were saying those words. He shouted-"You are all here".
His father picks up his sister from him and holds her in his embrace. "Calm down... my boy. We might not be a part of your reality but we will live forever in your memories as your little fantasy. So, live our lives too"- his mother said these words with the prettiest smile on her face. He closed his ears and eyes to stop listening to them.
When he opens his eyes, he is on a stretcher with oxygen mask, bleeding through nose and there were cuts all over his body. He was in a hospital. The doctor was saying-"The boy was the only one survived. He barely managed to be alive. Hurry! We can't lose him".
The boy finally understood what his parents meant. The last tear for his loss left his eye and the boy never cried again.
And this dream in grasslands never left his mind...
