When the past unfolds....

It's Feb 24 of 1999. A nurse is walking out of the labour room holding a baby girl. Yes, it's our girl. Her father received her small body. He felt that heaven descended on him. He felt like holding an angel. Tears rolled down because of happiness.

He felt someone poking him from behind. He looked back. There was no one at first, but after he saw a little boy looking at him eager to see the baby. 'Oh it's our Alen. Did you come to see baby.' Father stood on his knees so that the boy could see the baby. He drew closer to the boy. Little Alen reached out his hands and touched the baby's cheek. 'Uncle, look she is smiling. She is very pretty, just like an angel.'

'Do you like her?' her father asked. Alen nodded his head.

'Then take good care of her in the future..... What should we call her?Have you thought of a name?'

'Yes, let's call her Dew. She is looking as pure as dew '.

Yes our girl's name is Dew. She never know that she was named by Alen, the boy of her dreams.

Now let me tell you some pieces from her childhood.

Dew was sleeping soundly in her cradle. Alen tiptoed to the cradle and was peeping at her.

'Alen, what's there?' Dew's mom.

'Aunty, I was looking at dew. When will she be able to walk around ? I want to play with her.'

'Wait a little more dear. She will in a few months.'

.......

Now she is able to walk.

'Brother Alen wait for me...let Dew catch up with you...'She stumbled down. Alen came running and he lifted her and gave her a piggyback ride.

......

'Mommy, today I'll sleep with brother Alen in his house. I want to play with him all night.'

Mother,' Did you ask for aunty's permission?'

'Yes , I did'

'Don't make any trouble there.'

She ran holding his hands .

......

' Brother Alen, will you find me if I went missing.'

' Yes, who else will I play with if you're not here.'

......

It's finally that day. The day which made Dew fall in love with him according to her, the day Alen kissed her, but also the unfortunate day they were separated. She was playing with Alen in the courtyard. Her mother came and pulled little dew to her side and walked away. Alen didn't let go of her other hand. He ran after them without letting go. But Alen was stopped by his mother and he had to let go of her hand. Both of them cried a lot that day. Both of them stared at each other until the their vision was blocked.

That is how they got separated. Dew still don't why her family suddenly had to move away. Why she was not able contact him any more. Why her parents never talked about his family anymore. She was pretty sure that though their families were not related by blood. Both families shared deeper bond which was not even visible between blood lines. She never asked her parents about the boy or his family again. Why? She knew there was something. She never dared to start a talk about chapter that her parents had already closed.

Will there be a day when the time will open the book of truth and clarify all that was lost during past years....

Hope it will.....
