Ram was a small child of 5. He lost his voice a long time ago and lived with his grandparents because he had lost his parents in a car crash when he was at his grandparents. When Ram was eight, he went wandering alone, grabbing food wherever he found. He was not found and the grandparents worried. This went on for days until one day, Ram found a man named Salman. He asked where he was from but he could not speak and at once knew this as he had lost his voice as a boy too and had known how to express without talking. He knew he did not have any parents but lived with his grandparents. Salman promised he would help find his grandparents and took him home. A few days later, Ram found an old calendar and it had a picture of long island. He ran to Salman and started pointing at the picture and understood this was their destination. He grabbed Ram and his passport and they both rushed to the airport. They were soon on long island. It was a beautiful place with trees and mountains. Little did they know the adventure had just begun.


' Where to Ram?' but Ram did not know the way. They went to a nearby restaurant and ordered. Ram kept refusing until the non-veg section came. Sultan felt a bit dizzy when the order came. He ate quickly and went out for a walk. A few minutes later, they were driving up the mountain in their new rented car. After an hour's ride, the car broke down and they were lucky to find a station. As they were waiting for the car, Ram turned around and saw a cottage and started tugging Sultan by the shirt. He looked around at the cottage and then at the boy and yelled, ' We found it!'. They took the car and drove on. In the middle of the road stood a few cars from which came out men wearing a ribbon to the forehead each. They were each carrying a revolver and pointing it and their car. They stopped the car and got out. A man came forward and pointed the pistol at Salman. He reached out his hand, pushed Ram aside and kicked the man hard. The man fell down, crying in pain. the others came forward shooting with all their might but missed. Salman got hurt only once but he didn't care. Soon the pistols had no more bullets and they had to fight empty-handed. Salman was soon defeating all of them and bringing them to the ground. A man caught Ram and he saw this, ran to the man and jumped high and kicked him on the head, he fell down with a thud. ' Open the door' he instructed and they got in and sped away, leaving the men on the ground. Suddenly, Ram started tugging his shoulder. Salman saw an old couple and then at Ram and pointed at them. He nodded. They got out of the car and Ram rushed to the old couple. Sultan was in tears. Ram was like his own son but he was happy he was back with his family. He turned around and a voice called, ' Uncle'. he turned around to find Ram standing in tears. ' Uncle' he repeated. ' Ram! You can talk!' he cried and hugged him tightly. He then lifted him up and placed him down near the old couple and smiled. He turned around and got in the car. He smiled and waved and they waved back. He turned around and rode back out of sight.
