A story

 

               A family 


Once upon a time, there was a boy named Bahadur who lived in a village called Nayagaun. He was tall, had long hair and brown skin tone. He was enthusiastic by nature but was not so serious about life and future. He spend most of his young days in roaming with friends. When he reached at the age of 25yrs old his family started talking about his marriage and began to search a bride for him. He wasn't liking any girl until one day his eyes strike into a girl who was playing in her home and finally he  decided to marry her and approach her family. The girl's name was Niru, she was quite young but her family accepted the marriage proposal of Bahadur's family. As both family's background was not so good and they could not afford to bear more financial burden so they decided to attend a Group marriage in a temple. Their marriage was simple and she came into a large family which had almost ten members. Niru's life was really hard as she was young and had to word hard daily. Being a large family having financial problems was itself a very difficult, besides money related issues they could hardly had enough food for everyone. Struggle of Niru was same for many years and slowly her husband's brothers started a family separately.Every married brothers including Bahadur and Niru began to settle down their life in their own way.

Days passes and Niru gave birth to a baby boy and a girl within 2 years differences. They named their boy as Bhim and Shristi respectively. Both brother and sister were opposite in nature brother was talkative, enthusiastic, happy but sister was less talkative, not so enthusiastic as her brother and mostly used to have a gloomy face. Even though they had comparatively better life than their parents they had to think twice before spending money in any thing. When the childrens were growing up, parents had to think of providing education to their kids. Though they couldn't afford to educate them in private school both brother and sister were sent to government school. Around 11yrs old Bhim was admitted into a sponsorship school which gives free education with the help of his uncle. Bhim was studying well by staying at his uncle and aunt room but he was not feeling of staying with as he wasn't comfortable living with uncle and aunt so he ran away from there.Later Bhim's family decided that his father will be staying in the city as Bhim was doing fine in that school. After some years Bhim was asked if he is willing to stay in the hostel by the school administration so he accepted the offer. Rather than returning back Bahadur asked his wife and daughter to moved city and live with him. Both father and mother started working for their basic life support and to educate daughter. Shristi began her education in a school having mid- range fee. After 4 years, Shristi's brother requested of his school to admit his sister as well.  Luckily she was given chance to attend the same school in which her brother was studying. Both brother and sister studied in the sponsorship school until bachelor. Brother completed his masters degree in IT from Canada from his own hard work. After the period of 4 years he came to Nepal and got married and is intended to return to Canada for working with the hope of making betterment of his family.
