"Momma, special means?" A 7 year old kid asks his mother while sitting on her lap. 

"Mhm, something that comes in our life rarely." Her mother replies, untangling his soft curls.

"Like dad? He too rarely comes in our life. Right?" The kid harry asks anne, his mom.

"Uhm..no.. like.. like rainbows" anne replies, with a hint of sadness in her smile

"Rainbow?" Harry squeals in delight.

"You know why you are special?" Anne asks him                                                                                        Because you're born from love, because your mother loved you even before you came into this world, because.. your mother weaved a life for you before you even opened your eyes. A life, where there is nothing but love, wherever you'll go, you will find love, it will follow you everywhere."

"Mom? Where did dad go? Why was he angry?" Harry asks anne, who is standing in the balcony, gazing the moon.

"We were trying to find the answer of some questions, but it seems like, nothing is left." Anne says almost with no emotions in her voice

"So now dad doesn't love us?" Harry asks anne with those nervous soulful green pair of eyes.

Anne turns around to face his son, who is looking at her. She sits on the floor so that she is on his level

"No honey, dad loves you alot. His love is like those stars in the daytime, they can't be seen, but they are always present."

"Mom, please don't ever leave me, I'll be a good boy, promise" harry swears while pinching his throat with his thumb and index finger.

Anne's eyes suddenlybbecomes glossy, she takes off her ring and gives it to harry.

"Honey, keep this ring always with you. Just remember as long as this ring is with you, your mother is with you." And with that she wraps her arms around his small delicate body as tightly as she can

12 years later

"Harry baba, madam is calling you." A servant informed harry

"Mom, you asked for me?"

"Harry darling, where were you?" the lady squeezed him in a hug.

"Err.. mom..." he says, a little embarassed

"I was searching for you baby, A very happy new year"

"Happy new year, mother. I'll see you in a while" He quickly pecked on her cheek and left, wanting to be alone for awhile.

"Reva, who is he? Isn't your son in london. Why is he referring to you as his mother?" A lady asks

"He has been living in an orphanage since he was just twelve. Every year, him and his friends come here for new year's and christmas. He likes to call me mother as he has no one else left in this world." Reva tells her

He went straight to the balcony and looked up at the grey sky, sighing softly. The cool breeze caresssed his brown locks while the moonlight fell on his face- hiding every scar, every insecurity and every bit of sadness that was there, giving him the kind of glow that could fool anyone.

For the world, he was such a bubble of happiness, who goofed around and brightened everything up around him with his laughter, but only if they looked a little too long in those emerald eyes of him, they would realise how f-king broken he was.

His eyes fell on a certain ring on his hand, which was resting on the railing of the balcony. "I know you are here with me, mom. I can feel you." He then kissed on it. "I will always remember what you told me. That i am made from love, that i am made for love and that wherever i will go, love will find me."

"Wow Haz, You are finally going to Dehradun." A guy said.

"Mhmm" harry hummed while packing his belongings.

Harry had asked reva to go back to dehradun, his hometown. He wanted to complete his studies there only. Reva had gotten all the arrangements done for him. She got him admitted to the mount college, where harry's mother went.

It was 4:00 in morning, he stepped off the taxi and looked around. there was absolutely nothing in sight, all that could be seen was an empty road and a few trees. He looked up the address on the map and started walking in the dark.

Harry knew that coming back here was not going to be easy. All of the memories which he had locked away safely were gonna come back and he was not ready, not yet atleast. But he also knew that this is what his mother would have wanted for him.

His chain of thoughts was broken when he saw what-looked-like-a-stall ahead of him.

"Excuse me, sir, What's the way to mount college?" Harry asks the tea seller.

"Straight from the left, child." The old man replied.

"Uh.. okay, thanks. How far is it?"

"About an hour, if you go by walk. Or you can wait 'til the morning, any bus can drop you there."

An hour? but the maps said it was only a little further away from here.

"Is there any other way to reach there faster?" He was too tired to walk for an hour, considering he didn't sleep the whole night.

The old man takes a step towards him and points towards a forest.

"If you go through the forest, you will reach in about 15 minutes."

"Cool, thanks" he tried to leave but was stopped by the old man

"The forest is not really safe, it's already too late now, everything is dark, you should wait till the morning."

"thankyou sir, but i will manage" he smiled generously at him and turned to leave again.

There are so many secrets hidden in the depth of this forest... but before the old man could complete, harry was already gone.

Harry carefully walked through the dense forest, trying to ignore this weird familiar feeling

Harry carefully walked through the dense forest, trying to ignore this weird familiar feeling. it was too dark and although he wouldn't say he was scared, walking in this dark forest didn't exactly excite him. When he was a child, he used to be so afraid of the dark that he would never sleep with the lights off, but as he grew older, he overcame his fear. He sometimes still had setbacks but it wasn't as bad as it used to be.

As he was walking, a gust of wind swept past him, throwing him off the balance. All his eyes caught was this hazy image of something, or rather someone running, hastily. That familiar feeling in his chest wss growing like crazy, making him all edgy and uneasy. He shivered as the words of that old man rang in his ears.

The darkness around him suddenly became unbearable. Shutting his eyes down, he tried to take long deep breaths but nothing was making it better. he was so close to having a setback when he felt the warmth of sunshine on his face. He opened his eyes to see the just-risen sun shining softly. sighing in relief, he picked up his bag and started to walk again.
