Boom! Boom! Boom! The crackers had started bursting as soon as Rohan had gone to sleep. The Diwali season had arrived. He liked Diwali only for the delicious sweets his mother prepared. Unlike other boys of his school, he did bully but he was scared of loud noise, ghosts and darkness.

'Hey Scared person!', his friends also teased him, but little did he care. He would grow and show them his talents and had start learning how to become a gangster. His parents had thought that he was their innocent little child who did nothing bad. But did they know that he had already started playing games of violence that were not of his age ?

Dissolving all the thoughts into his head he forced himself to sleep. Late in the morning he woke up, (Sunday ) and went to play out with his friends. He came back late and tired and gobbled up his food and ran to his room. He took his mobile and opened instagram and started seeing corrupted pictures. After some time he felt someone stand behind him. He turned back expecting to find a robber but to his shock it was his father! He was really scared. Had he seen what he was seeing? He prayed to God hoping that would be wrong.


After a moment of silence he spoke - 'Hey dad! What's up?' Instead of replying angrily, he calmly said, 'Son, Start studying, your exams are arriving. You are in 9th now.' He left. Rohan was really relieved. He swore to himself that he would be careful from next time.

Little did he know what was running in his Father's head!

That night the lights went off when he still hadn't slept. Why? Didn't his parents know he was scared of the dark? He mustered his courage and went to his parent's room. He called them several times and then realized they were unconscious. He was first time felt alone and started crying. He forgot his fear of dark too.

Then suddenly he heard his Mother's voice. He thought it was an illusion and ignored. He again heard her voice and when he looked up, he saw her beautiful face. She calmed him down. After some time he noticed that his father too was standing there. He smiled. They made him sit down.


His father was the one who spoke first and a friendly conversation started. He was noting the conversation down as they were speaking -

Father - "Son, I saw what you were seeing today and I was very disappointed. I controlled my anger as I wanted to teach you a lesson not scold you".

Mother - "Your father shared his grief with me and we made a plan."

Father - "We decided to scare you and make you feel a loss so that you experience the pain we face in raising you up."

Mother - "Child, we understand your feelings."

Father - "Do not choose the wrong path. Even i you are bullied, Do not bully others."

Mother - "You can see that millions of people are behind the bars because of one wrong decision in life."

Father - "It is all for your good."

Saying this Rohan's parents went to bed and Rohan was left in his uncountable thoughts. They were right. He was wrong. He decided to change his ways and dozed off.

The next day he was a completely different person. His parents were happy seeing this change in him. He worked hard everyday and was not scared of anything. He had stopped thinking of bullying too.

The world says many

Listen to the good words

Not the bad

The success lies in your hands

Not others

So choose the right decision

The world is of fake people

Find a real you

Your talent is awaited

For the welfare of the world !!"
