Once upon a time in the heart of kuvuki land, there lived a great explorer, Dr Donald, who is known for his great works and expeditions with his crew. Sometimes, they go in search of treasures, lost cities, animal fossils and lots of great adventures. Mr Donald had a beautiful wife and two lovely kids, a boy and a girl. He loved his family so much but was hardly around and didn’t pay attention to them due to the nature of his career. He had this wrong mindset that with money, expensive cars and jewelries, everything is settled with his family but he forgot that there are something’s money can’t buy.

His wife has always been complaining and his kids hardly knew him. During one of their heated arguments, the wife out of anger took the kids and left the house, heading to her sister’s house to spend some days there till she cools off. On her way, driving over there, she was searching for her phone in her hand bag to call her sister that she’s coming over. She couldn’t find her phone. She had to turn her bag upside down, so everything inside it will come out. The phone fell out of the bag and landed on the car floor and as she bent down to pick the phone, the lack of concentration on the road at that brief moment made her swerve her car unknowingly to the wrong lane of the highway and she was hit by an oncoming truck. She loosed her life and one of the kid died. The daughter was rushed to the hospital by paramedics but she was in a coma for two years. Dr Donald hated himself and prayed to God to show him mercy by sparing his only child’s life. His prayers was answered.
