Life Is Beautiful – Part 7
After Prasanna left, Ram finished his breakfast and, as usual, switched on the television to watch the morning news. It was one of his daily morning routines.
Suddenly, he received a phone call from Raj. Ram answered the call.
Ram: Hello, this is Ram speaking.
Raj: Good morning, Ram. What happened? I haven't heard from you since the birthday celebration.
Ram: I've been quite busy with work. Tell me, what's the matter?
Raj: A major accident occurred this morning on the Bengaluru highway near Mandya. A college student has reportedly lost his life in the accident.
Ram: A college student? How old was he? Do you know his name?
Raj: He was around 20 to 22 years old, with a dark complexion. That's all I know. Why do you ask?
Ram: A boy I know, Prasanna, traveled to Bengaluru today. Could you please find out whether the one who died was him?
Raj: Sure. I'll make some inquiries and call you back immediately.
With that, Raj ended the call.
Ram walked over to his mother's photograph and stood silently before it. Tears welled up in his eyes.
"Mom... Please bless me. Nothing should happen to Prasanna."
He could no longer control his emotions.
Why is Ram so deeply concerned about Prasanna? What is the connection between them? These questions are sure to stir your curiosity. The answers will be revealed in the upcoming parts.
