There lived a family of four members in a remote village called Ghazipur near Dhaka, Bangladesh. Our story is mainly focused on the teenage girl and teenage brother in the family. The teenage girl's name is Aisha. Who always had a fantasy of riding on a unicorn. This fantasy was created by the Disney movies she used to watch at her tender age. Then comes her brother named Alex who is just one year elder than her sister Aisha. He too has a fantasy of seeing an angel in his life. He believed that an angel exists in real life and he vigorously believed that an angel is around us on a day to day Life. They both had strict parents but also supported their children's passion and motivated them to succeed in their life. They both opposed religious discrimination and wanted every religion to be united and support each other. This is the reason why they even kept a Hindu name to their daughter and a Christian name to their son. The only difference between these two is that his brother Alex is an extrovert who speaks to everyone about his fantasy. But, mostly he would be mocked by his friends for saying his fantasy. Whereas his sister Aisha is a reserved person who doesn't want to talk about her fantasy with anyone and hence she kept it as a dark secret.
As the day's gone, they were on the eve of the summer holidays. So, as usual, their teachers were asked to every student about how they are going to spend their holiday time. She was asking every student one by one. One student said he is going to study for his future and another student said she is going to work hard in baking and like that it was going on as usual. But when the teacher asked Alex about his idea on how he is gonna spend his holidays. He without hesitating replied by saying that he is gonna spend his holidays fulfilling his fantasy of seeing an angel in real. All the students laughed at him and the teacher scolded him and advised him to work hard with his academics as he was an average student in academics. Then both after reaching home, their parents asked about their holiday plans to of. Aisha replied she is gonna spend her time studying and Alex as usual said he is going to see angels in real. Their parents tried to convince him that there is nothing like an angel in real life and wanted Alex to be like a normal Teenager.
But he was very adamant about his decision and did plan to escape from his house and try to search an angel. He did research on angels by visiting a public library that is near his home. At there to his friends mocked him but he never gave up and worked hard on it. While searching he found a book called "Angels, Miracles, and Heaven on Earth" written by John Webster. He studied the book carefully and found that angel is intangible " it can't be touched physically " but we can feel it when we do good things. He felt broke by reading this but he wanted to feel the angel. So, he planned to do good things. But he never helped the person who is near him rather he only helped the person who is located near the religious buildings because he thought that angels would see him if only he helps people located near religious buildings. Once his parents came to know this they asked him about this and he explained his own thought as I mentioned above.
They both went disappointed. They advised him to help people without any kind of discrimination and said him to be united with others without seeing any religion and etc.., he spent his holidays by helping to all after this advice from his parents. Though he didn't see angels, he felt good and had satisfaction whenever he helps others. His confession of his secret or also known as"dark secret" helped to satisfy his fantasy. Hence it is being confessed and satisfied, this doesn't remain as a fark secret to him. Whereas his sister Aisha is still dreaming about her fantasy without confessing it to anyone and keeping it as a "dark secret" of her life.
