Chapter 6 : The old man
Guys I want to tell that before I have written every chapters acc. to 3rd person's point of view but readers said me I should write the main character's POV.
So I introduced character's POV but not each and every chapter only where I felt I should.
So during this conversion process I did mischiefs.... so I'm really sorry for that....Well I'm trying to correct them.
HAPPY READING

Sun was setting down from the golden horizon, air grew chilled and the birds were returning thier home but these things didn't make Kaira's heart flattered and light.
Kaira was waiting for her friend with a heavy heart because he didn't come yet from last few weeks. It was first time when he wasn't make his promise.
Her friend was an old man.
Kaira didn't know anything else about him except he was her one and only friend. He told her that he was an ancient guardian who knew magics and besides this She knew nothing.
She didn't ever ask him about his home.
She didn't ever ask him how could he do magics.
She didn't ever ask him was he not a human.
She didn't ever ask him where he was come from .
She didn't ever think that far.
Because she was happy only by his presence. She didn't care anything else. He was always kind to her, in him she found her grandpa. Always his warm hands slided over her head and his pure smile gave her new hopes.
For her he was like a friend, like a protector. Her life was changed after meeting him. He used to come when Kaira was a little kid.

KAIRA POV
🍁
"Is something happend to him? Is he not alright? or he doesn't want to come anymore". I asked myself.
I sat on the grassy ground and flooded my legs closed to my chest and rested my hands on the knees and I was looking far in the sky. So many questions swirling in my eyes.
There was so many thoughts and doubts clouded my vision. There was so many questions were raised inside my heart. Because last time when old man met me, he was very excited for my 15th birthday and promised to come , but he wasn't. I waited the whole day.
I was in the middle of my deep thoughts then a voice pulled me back to the real world. I didn't turned but I was well known that voice.. It was my mother's voice.
"It's to late honey. let's go home, sun has almost hidden from the sky". My mom said.
But I wanted to stay further and mom didn't. I stood at my place but still didn't move because I wanted to wait little further and sun wasn't completely hidden too from the sky. My mother came upto me and gently my hands into her's and said....."let's go. Otherwise you will too late".
Those words, that line struk in my mind. I was like stucked at my place for a second. Like I had been heard those words before somewhere else but wasn't getting where. It was the first time I saw some faded scenes which appeared in my mind like unclear pictures .
"Kaira. What happened? Are you alright sweety?". Mom looked at me worriedly.
I gasped. "I d..don't know mom. But..I ..I.."
"No more excuses kaira, it's late. Let's go". Sera didn't listen her and took a hold on kaira's hand and walk out the forest.
●°•°~◇◇◇◇◇~°•°●
From past few weeks kaira often didn't take proper sleep because of strange dreams. In beginning, she hadn't taken them seriously. But after many weeks, she realized those were recurring dreams.
She entered into the kitchen. "Hye mom". Kaira said with her puffy red eyes. There was a black circle under her eyes and her voice sounded heavy and her face covered with stressed expressions.
Sera turned, she worriedly scanned her beautiful face which looked tired and sick. "What happened sweetheart? You seem little sick".
Kaira Placed her elbow on table for support her face into her palm...."I saw few dreams mom and they are keep repeating" .
"Ohh! You mean recurring dreams. What you saw?" Sera asked in curiosity but she was worried too".
"I saw a dream in which a girl was holding hand of someone. She was saying something, I'm trying to remember but I don't". Kaira said.
Sera was completely surprised by what kaira said. She quickly turned her face away from kaira, she didn't want to make any eye contact. Because it was her dream too. But she didn't want to let know kaira that she got panic after hearing her dreams. But somewhere in her heart, old memories get revived .
Sera tried to control her anxiety and with a weak smile ....."Honey it happens. I have also seen many strange recurring dreams. But dreams are dreams. Take it casually".
Kaira took long breath. "I think you are right mom. Maybe I'm uselessly exaggerating".
Kaira said so to her mother but she was little considerate about her dreams. She didn't stop keep coming in the forest. She came everyday and waited for old man many hours, just in the hope might be he was waiting of her or might be he would come at any time.
●°•°~◇◇◇◇◇~°•°●
As days was passing with time, her hopes was getting weak. A part of her heart accepted that he would never come back again. Day by day slowly, she stop went to the forest, because now she didn't want.
She spent her whole time inside home. She was either watching television or stay in her room.
One night She was laying on her bed. She was totally frustrated with her situation with her life. She was angry with her parents too, she felt unknowingly they were also responsible for her condition.
She thought "My parents never paid attention or had enough time for me and fir my future. They never thought seriously about my situation". Her heart filled with sarrow and tears built into her eyes and rolled down on her cheeks.
She was thinking about her childhood and past. At once old man came in her mind . She remembered, she was a little kid, setting down under a tree, first time she saw the old man, who was tall in height, had average weight, holding a unique stick which had a small bell on tip and told her about the spring festival.

KAIRA POV
🍁
"Why that day I saw him when he was crossing the forest. If I didn't meet him, didn't have any attachment, perhaps I didn't have any feeling of expectations and new hopes ".
There were so many questions arising in her mind.
Why I had this life?
Why he told her about fest?
Why he was so kind to her?
Why he was suddenly stop comming?
Why my heart felt him familiar?
Was he come from some where else world?
And who was he?
All these causing only frustration inside her and she was also upset about her recurring dreams.
Every things seemed her so complicated. Her head was hurting, she got headache. She covered her head with pillows and curled under duvet .
●°•°~◇◇◇◇◇~°•°●
Next day Sera knocked her room. She called her but Kaira didn't reply. Sera worried about her.
Sera stromed into the living room, she has stressed wrinkles on her face.
"David did you see her behavior, she's changed. She's being rude. She is not talking much to me. She doesn't even go to forest . Not eat properly. I'm really worried about her. What should we do?" she took a seat next to him.
"I'm also worried about her. I think her isolation and loneliness creating problem. She not a little kid anymore, she is young girl . She wants her life, she wants to share her feelings, she wants to be like others, she wants to be with others". David sighed.
"I always wanted a girl so I was extremely happy when Sera borned. But now I feel like I haven't given her any happiness. I feel so bad when, I see her blunt face, her dull eyes". Sera got silent, her eyes filled with tears.
David saw in her eyes...."I have decided Sera I will not allow anymore my daughter an isolated life. I believe in God and I hope everything will be fine in future. After all we all know nothing happenes from so long with Kaira".
"What do you mean". She gulped.
David still maintained his gaze with her and camly said.... "I'm going to enroll her in high school. Now She will not study from home. I want to give my daughter a good life as I have given to my sons".
"I think you are right. Maybe this way her loneliness will end. And she will smile again as she smiled always". Sera noded.
