Rudra, who was the only son of his parents. He was not their biological son but they loved him a lot. He was with them for two years and they found him unconscious near a lake. He lost his memory so his parents accepted him and told him as their son. His family was not very rich but not poor too.

He was a very handsome boy but it's true that if you have merit in one thing then there will be demerit in other. His mental state was not right.

"Rudra! Rudra! Wake up it's already 9.00 am" Rudra's mother said.

"Hey, no, no don't" Rudra murmured in sleep. "Noooo!" He shouted.

He used to have wierd dreams, mostly he saw fire, so he was very afraid of fire. He saw a girl burning and he was crying for her in his dream.

His mother ran into his room, "what happened? Did you see the same dream again?" She asked.

"Hmm" He nodded.

"Have you taken your medicine?" She asked.

"They are just useless. Nothing happened to it. Sedatives in these medicines make me lazy. I could not even do anything, it make me weak." He said.

He stood up from the bed parted towards the bathroom.

"But, it's necessary doctor suggest to take it regularly for your recovery." She shouted.

"I will eat breakfast after bath." He said.

"You like bathing this much?." She said.

"No, I like water, it's soothing, calm and refreshing. My whole tension shed off in it." He said.

Rudra like bathing a lot, sometimes he even spend three hours in water. He came out of bathroom and hear the voice of Damini, her only friend. He went downstairs to the dining table and saw Damini chatting with his parents, "what are you all talking about?" He asked.

"She was asking about you." Rudra's father said.

"We were telling her how much time you take in bathing but you came pretty fast today." Rudra's mother said.

"I will go again in noon. " Rudra said.

"Off course you would love water." Damini in lowered voice.

"Both of you can go inside and have chat, Rudra take your breakfast with you." Mother said.

Both Rudra and Damini went inside the living room and sat on the sofa, Damini took out a parcel from her purse.

"This is your appointment with doctor and your medicine too." She said.

"I don't want it I already have them" He said.

"You didn't take your medicine on time, you should take care of yourself. " She said.

"I am hungry, I forgot to bring breakfast." He said.

Rudra went inside to brought his breakfast where he overheard his parents chat, "I think we should tell him truth, he keep asking me about his childhood." Rudra's mother said.

"How do I tell him when he love us so much. How can I tell him that he is not our real son?" Rudra's father said.

Rudra felt confused and puzzled more than sad, he went to his parents and said, "so that's why there are no childhood photos of mine."

"I am sorry my child I should have told you before but when I heard about your mental condition from doctor that you forgot everything I was worried if situation get worse so we decided to tell you after your recovery but whenever we heard you saying dad and mamma to us we could not able to tell you." Rudra's father said.

"It's okay dad I do not blame you for anything, I know you both love me and you keep me like your own son and I love you now even more but I am very disturb, I don't know who the real I am. Whose blood I have now and what is my real name ? I feel like useless. " Rudra said.

"Rudra, you are our son, we love you, you are not useless but a very nice child..." Rudra's mother said.

"But I want to know about myself. I see glimpses every time I know these are surely from my real life. I everytime saw a girl, I am sure I know her." Rudra said.

"I understand you, what do you want? I will fulfill your wish. " Rudra's father said.

"Where do you find me? I want to go there, maybe I get to know anything or remember anything. " Rudra said.

"But..." Rudra's mother was trying to resist but Rudra's father stopped her and said, "we went to live in our town's house for few days. There we found you at the bank of lake that was at small distance from our house. I will book your bus tickets for there you can go there tomorrow. "
Rudra's mother wanted to stop him.
"Don't stop him, let him do what he want. But promise me that you will come satisfied and happily from there." Rudra's father said.

"I promise and don't worry mamma I can never and I will never forget you. I will always remain your son no matter what" Rudra said.

Damini were listening them, they saw her, "Sorry, I didn't mean to but I was worried about Rudra." She said. "Let me go with you."

"No, don't worry, I will take direct bus of village. It's alright. You do not have to do that because of me" Rudra insisted.

She agreed. "Don't forget to take medicine with you, they are very important. Wait, I will put it in your bag."

Rudra packed his clothes and reached the village next day. He found his parent's farm house in village and arranged his clothes there. His parents already had called a servant for cleaning and cooking.
Rudra saw the servant cleaning the yard, he saw him fully covered in sweater, shawl and pants.

"Sir, sir good evening, how was your journey? I had clean the house and I will cook the dinner for you." Servant said.

"It was nice and thank you very much...
