"How would you like to live your life?"
A middle aged man asked the ten yrs old boy whom he just met.
This boy a hairstyle of like a simple but his one eyes was a towards a little bit inside. He has sword like eyebrows and a tanned skin.
This boy is we are talking is Lotus.
He has eye estropia.
He looks weird while opening eyes but it's a unique temperament around him with makes him attractive. But he still is smiling.
"I want to live my life happily." answered Lotus.
That middle aged man chuckled as he said, "Live your life without any regrets."
Just after he said that he vanished like he never existed.
"Without any regrets...."
Lotus murmured as he slowly walked back towards his friends.

6 months later
"Lotus!" A handsome boy exclaimed towards another boy, he is 3 inches taller than the handsome boy but still isn't as remarkable as him cause there wasn't any thing special about him.
"Hmm. Sam? What happened?"
Lotus asked as he looked towards the boy named Sam.
"We are going to field for parade."
Sam answered as he looked towards another group of boys.
He continued, "Isn't the Republic Day near? So we are going to parade to see other students from other schools and practice."
"Oh. Should I not go? I am not good at it anyway." Lotus said truth as he really wasn't any good in any types of games.
"Let's just go anyway. You can just roam around alright. So let's just go." Sam asked him.
"OK. By the way isn't your birthday just 2 days afterwards mine?", Lotus asked Sam.
"Yes it is. Although I will be absent but isn't your birthday just day after tomorrow?"
"Yeah it is."
"Believe me. You will get the best gift you have ever had in your life."
"Sigh... " Lotus sighed as he continued, "It doesn't matter anyway."
"OK. Let's go. Ram should be waiting for us." Sam told as he looked at another group who were just getting on bus.
"Yeah. Let's see who can run faster."
"Yeah."
Both ran towards in a childish way the bus.
---------
Same day. At evening.
"Lotus. Practice has ended I am going to get some water OK. You should just roam around alright." Sam told to Lotus as he ran towards another group for water.
"Yeah. See y'all after half a hour."
Lotus said towards that group.
"Hmm. Let's just roam around."
Lotus looked back to see if any thing catches his eye.
--------
15 minutes later.
"Gulp... Gulp....Gulp... "
Lotus looked back as he heard someone drinking.
'Has Sam and others already came?'
When he saw the other party. He was stunned.
He saw a girl in navy school skirt and white shirt drinking water from a pink bottle but for him it was like....
Just unforgettable....
His heart started to beated faster with time as he stared at her.
He... He just wanted to look at her for eternity.
"Rhea!" A girl came over suddenly breaking the mood.
Lotus flinched as he looked away from wonder.
As he moved his head, he saw Sam and other shaking hands in air.
He walked away slowly and slowly and thought.
'Sigh... It was a moment. Wasn't it? It feels wierd but it's amazing.'
He had no confidence, no talent but still at least he could have a remarkable moment.
He thought he had got the best gift he could but he was just not worthy of it.
