Entire body of my father was burning with the beating he received. Instead of feeling helpless, his determination became stronger. He wanted to demonstrate his defiance to his family but his energy level was low. He wept quietly in the dark room and kept asking his dead mother for help. Whole day passed and no one even bothered to come to see him once. He was kept locked in the room without water and food. Hours ticked by and he could feel darkness increase in the room. He was getting scared now. He has to take a decision and knew very well that if he has to live in this house, he has to forego his dream of studies and have no chance of coming out of this poverty.

His mind was made. He has to escape and do it now. He tried his hands on the door, but that was firmly locked. Something clicked in his mind. He knew that the walls of his hut were build of mud and can be broken with ease. He felt through the room and found a farm implement which had sharp edge and was capable to breaking open the wall. Within next half and hour, he kept his hands moving and finally could see stars and moon outside.
