DEATH'S CALL

Inside the I.C.U Sarah was unconscious. Meanwhile the operation is going on. She hears a deep voice inside her brain. The voice was deep but coming very slowly. It has a very mysterious air around it.

" Your time had come Sarah and today you are going to die. Anything which you want to say?"

" Will my child be safe? I want to see it before I die."

" Don't worry he will be safe but you can't see him. To see him means to live and you don't have time. Your life has come to an end."

"Then I don't want to die. After my death there will be no one to look after my children. How will they grow up? Will they have a good upbringing? I must live. Please, is there no way I can live." A pleading voice from a mother for her child which was so sober and filled with pain that it can create waves of emotions to the person hearing it.

After some time a reply came," There is... but everything thing has a price. You have to pay a very heavy price."

Seeing the hope, a wave of new energy gush over Sarah, she had a crying tone but it has some energy. She replied, " I am willing to pay any price."

" You have to choose..... Choose between your life or this child."

Yet another wicked difficulty came over Sarah. The hope she had all gush over in the drain. She found herself yet in another big hell.

" How can I choose my life over my child? How can a mother exchange her life with her child? Why you are so cruel? Who are you to separate a mother from her child "

" I am one who you call god. I observe all the life forms and create balance in this world. It is not that I am cruel but it is the destiny of your child that is very big which needed sacrifice to get balanced. Everything must be balanced. He needs to suffer until he realizes his destiny."

" Then I will take all his suffering. I will suffer in his place. Let me take his thorn."

" No you can't. Every person has their own share of suffering and the destiny he carries requires such price. He must pave his own path. Without hardship there is no reward. "

" But how can I let him suffer. I am willing to pay the price in his place. I will balance his destiny. Let me pay his price." The warm heart of the mother and the decision to fight against anything for her child was seen in her reply.

The god knows it was hard to persuade such a mother who has taken her decision. Yet he tries to change her decision.

"Your decision can bring destruction to this world. More than half of the world may face destruction. In the worst case, the earth may go to a state where there will be no life form. "

" I don't care about the world. I only care about my child. My child is above the entire world. If I have to choose my child over the entire world then I will choose my child without any confusion or hesitation."

Getting angered," Fine, then I will grant your wish. You will live but you will live in hardship till your death. Each day will be like hell to you. The more your child grows the more you suffer. If you want to give up in between and died then your child hardships will be doubled."

After an hour doctor came out and told the old man, "Both child and mother are fine and you can meet them."

Coincidently at the same hospital another miracle took place. Sarah's husband which was doomed to die survives. Even the doctors were surprised. The old man was very happy. He got double good news. But what he doesn't know that his second good news is the worst thing that could happen to there life.

In I.C.U Sarah was hugging his son and tears are dropping from her eyes There was a blissful smile on her face. It was the best scene in the world. The child was not crying he was staring in the eyes of his mother as if he is staring at the soul of her mother. The scene was so mesmerizing that even the god will change his heart if he saw this.

Well Sarah has no idea that what she has paid for her child and what is in the destiny that her child carries. Right now she was in bliss. Her child in her arms staring with his blue eyes. Her tears are not stopping. She was feeling restless like she had paid something terrible but seeing her son all worry flees, an unknown calmness came to her, an unknown peace. Nothing matters to her as long as she has her child. Every price can be paid, any sacrifice can be made as long as her child is safe and happy.

She smiles and tells his son, " I want you to bring peace wherever you go, the place you visit enjoys peacefulness and bountifulness. Carrying my this desire I will name you Aman. Son, I don't you to go in the footsteps of your father. I want you to create your own name by yourself. Therefore I won't give you any surname. Choose it yourself when you feel you had made your own identity. From today your name will be Aman."
