Who is a kingmaker? I ask this question quiet often when i hear it in movies and read it in novels.
On November 11th 1980 a boy was born in a family which was in the brink of its poverty. Even though both the beings of the family earned, it was quite a tough job, like pushing a mountain with a finger, to make both the ends meet. They were not the one who were termed as "a family below the povery line" as stated by the drinking class of the society, but was on the level that a naivette like me would refer as 'were at their lower level of middle class'. Even a chocolate for the kid was tough for they have to put a budget to buy one. The Father was quite enough educated man, but not quite enough to the level what he could have studied(!!), and the mother was too a decently educated women, quite a lot educated considering her childhood circumstances and family background. With atmost caressing of the child he grew to be well mannered, etiquette conscious boy for his age. Since they were put up in a country side the lady mother wanted her son to get a better education. Hence in an effort to provide a better education, by better education what they mean of is to join the kid in a school which lodges over a 1000 children and handful of 'most' useless teachers,the family moved on to the urban side. But, on the contrary the boy began to show an evolutionary pattern that was not expected. He made himselves accompanied or engulfed in bad company and studied nothing. Worries started to haunt their minds and tears rolled over their eyes but the boy exhibited only a single emotion 'Eternal happiness', a happiness that one would get one realised that he has acheived everything in his life, a happiness that one would get if one is being symbolised as a hero, Of course the boy was not of that sort.It was during his fifth grade he saw the cry of this father for the first time when things began to fall out of his hand. The sight is still filled as a horrified image in the boy's head, probably an animation. He saw the whole collapse of his family when he atlast saw his mother crying, crying out desperately, but in a clandestine manner without showing her emotions to the boy child, for the sole reason that his son was going in the wrong direction.
