Chapter 2 - Tragic Into Existence

Birth of a child, considered to be the joyous period of a couple's existence. However, the birth of Anon was considered to be a mistake, as the family couldn't afford to pay for another child's support. Upon finding out about Anon's arrival, Anon's mother was hesitant to abort the child due to the unconditional love of a mother to the child in her womb, Even though she deeply regrets it due to the economical state of her family, she wanted to embrace the child into life.

Anon lived in a family of four beings, the father and mother along with a sister who was 10 years elder than Anon himself, as everything was unplanned the 10 years gap between the two children seems significantly huge.

Mother was a professional tailor for a designing agency, she worked along with a group of women to accomplish the goals of the agency. She was a talented tailor but there was no guarantee what her pay would be like every month, her pay relied on the demands of the clothing and modeling industry.

Father used to handle a small food stall where he'd cook Chinese and Indian cuisine. He was an amazing chef, father always worked hard and wanted to be a chef at a restaurant because the stall never guaranteed constant pay it differed from each day, the weekends were the days he earned the most amount of money during the whole week.

Sister was at primary school, she'd be back home by the afternoon just two hours after mom left to work. Anon was taken care of for two hours every weekdays by their neighbors who was the mother's childhood friend. After coming back from school Lily was the one who always took care of Anon, as the parents worked hard Lily was responsible for the growth of Anon. She would feed him his lunch and play with him for a while, she also began to teach him a few words as time went by.

She took the responsibility of taking care of and looking after Anon as their mother had to work to earn a decent amount of income for Lilly's school and upbringing Anon.

At first, before the birth of Anon, everything seemed impossible to deal with, but as time went on the family gradually coped with the economic situation that came along the way.

Three years passed, they were a happy family who always went out on a small picnic every weekend towards the countryside, every week a different destination.

As always, things can never be happy forever.

After a long Friday, father decided the destination for this weekend's picnic.

The family was packed and excited for tomorrow and headed towards their dining hall to finish off their dinner and head to bed.

As they almost finished dinner, mother panicked as Lily fell unconscious she cried out calling dad's name.

Mom and dad weren't able to understand the situation but there was no time for understanding it.
