The Raincoat

Little Aarav always dreamt of having a colourful raincoat like the other kids in his neighbourhood. His family, struggling to make ends meet, couldn’t afford it. One day, during a particularly heavy downpour, Aarav’s father surprised him with a bright yellow raincoat. It wasn’t new, but it was patched with love and care.

Wearing his raincoat, Aarav ran out to play in the rain, his laughter echoing through the streets. The joy in his eyes and the pride in his father’s heart were priceless. That monsoon, Aarav learned that happiness doesn’t come from material things but from the love and sacrifices of family.
