 In a world where all the things can be bought if one has enough wealth, the circumstance of the family one has born in decides how he is going to live his life. Still, some people break this norm and shackles around them and reach the top they yearn for.

 In the south of one of the peaceful countries, a child was born in a common household, "Wah Wah". The wet nurse hands over the newborn boy to his father carefully while the mother is deep asleep in the bed due to the tiredness of the recent delivery. The father held the child carefully with a joyful expression on his face. "Look here my boy don't cry, here here; look at your dad".

 He tried to console the loudly crying baby, as the nurse came and informed him that it's normal for the baby to cry as it just came out of the womb to experience the world around it, to the concerned father. Only then did the father calm down and return the baby to the nurse. Just after returning the baby, he realized he had yet to talk about this happy event to any of his relatives or friends, as they rushed to the hospital due to the sudden labour pain there was no one in the ward other than him.

"Hello Appa you are Grandfather now to a healthy baby boy", he called to his parents and informed them first.

"HAHA that is the happiest news one can ask for at this age for an old man, wait I will call your mom and inform her she will be just as happy as I am" his father exclaimed as he heard the news that his son Subhu had delivered. "Wait don't tell her I will talk to her myself so just give the phone to her", said Subhu to his dad.

"OK OK, I will then" After this, his father Maniyan gave the phone to his mother Kamala to whom he said the same happy news to which she exclaimed just as much as her husband and informed his son that she and his father would come to the hospital as soon as possible to visit their grandchild. After Subhu ended his call with his mother he called his in-laws, relatives, and friends and informed them about the news.

 After finishing all the calls he returned to the ward to see his wife awake and watching over their baby boy deep asleep after having his stomach full of his first-ever meal of his mother's milk.

Hearing the sound of the opening door she saw her husband walking in with a peaceful smile on his face and said "Look at our child sleeping peacefully, we have to do everything in our power to raise him in peaceful circumstances and live a happy life".

 Hearing what his wife Divya said he replied "I promise you that I will do everything in my power to achieve that" with a resolute tone in his voice. After hearing that Divya put on a bright smile on her face.

 "Enough about that have you thought of any good name for our son" asked Subhu after seeing Divya smile. Divya had a thoughtful expression as she looked over her son.

 "Let's name him Mohan so that he grows into an intelligent and handsome man someday" Hearing what she said Subhu thought for a few minutes and said, "Let's include our God's name to his name so that he grows peacefully under the God's protection."

 "Then let's name him Mohan Kumaar so that Lord Murugan can bless him with a happy life", said Divya after hearing what Subhu said.
