Just a few years back did Maya get married and had shifted to her husband's place. Four years back she was also gifted with a baby girl who she loved exceedingly.
"So tell, how is your dear daughter Norah? It has been so long since I last met her at your place." Delilah smiled, looking at the lady affectionately.
"Oh, she is fine. As per Old monk's suggestions, the girl has been sent to the famous institute of mind reading and research centre. Now she will have to stay there for several years." The lady smiled contentedly looking at Delilah.
"Oh, that is wonderful. I am sure, old monk must have seen something in her abilities so send her in that centre."Delilah spoke in an animated tone.
"Yes, old monk says that the girl has the ability to understand the unspoken words and can also play with the minds of the people already at the age of four. She also has the ability to manoeuvre people into thinking, what she wants them to think. It is a bit scary for a four year old child to do it. The old monk wanted the girl to use this strength in a proper manner. So he suggested this study institute, which will help her to restrain her power and guide them to right path. Thank god for old monk, or the girl was turning into a total little devil. She would often trick me into thinking numerous things too! Imagine her on mother would never be able to figure her out." The lady spoke a bit sadly and was now terribly missing her daughter.
"Don't worry Maya. She is in safe hands. And she will keep visiting you every once in a while. You are a wonderful mother Maya. You have not just taken care of Norah in such a lovely conduct but also you have always looked after Joya too. Just like your own son. How can I ever thank you Maya?" Delilah blinked several times fighting her tears, which were ready to fall on her cheeks any moment. She was now looking lovingly in Mayas beautiful gray eyes, with her own gratitude filled eyes.
"Oh, do not say like that my queen. Joya is actually like my own son. How can I forget pulling him out of your womb with my own hands? I promise to not just take care of him in this birth but also in every birth." The lady smiled holding Delilah's hand. "When ever he needs any guidance and help, I will make sure I am with him to show him the right path." The lady smiled cheerfully and wiped away Delilah's tears. "And don't worry. I am sure there will be somebody in all the lands, to help the boy speak. If not now then at least in a few years, he will definitely speak up."
15 years later....
The boy had yet not spoken a single word and everybody had just accepted the fact that the boy was indeed born dumb and he would never be able to speak. In all these years, Maya would often visit the royal palace only to wonder when the boy will find any hope to speak. But they all now lost all hope and had rather concentrated on his other skills. The boy had outstandingly astounding skills. His other senses were more than activated and the boy would often smell, hear or see what others could never ever perceive easily.
