---

He was never fond of school and books and everything education. Smoking, hanging around with bad companies were on of his indulgence. And he was only 13 years old.

Blessed was he, coming from a rich family.

At the age of 16, bad luck strucked right at his door when one of them was suspected to own drugs and the whole gang was caught by police. His mother decided to the unexpected. Bailed him out, stopped him from school, and forcefully sent him to other state to work. Mining charcoal.

He was given no choice. No more pocket money. The last he received was flight ticket to the state and some extra pennies to reach the mining place.

Hard life pushed him to realise how blessed he was. And he had taken everything for granted.

God was always by his side, a humble prayer by his mother. And he worked hard, being promoted to office manager, handling paper work instead of mining. One of the office workers there fell in love with him. And vice versa.

She was too good to be true, people did not agree he deserved her.

But...

They got married. God was on his side. The rest was history.
