The Three Family Members

Tolerance Watercolor style

In Assam, Guwahati, Deiji, Mausam, and Kameshwar Lahkar face a challenging problem that tests their tolerance. Can they overcome the obstacles and learn to live harmoniously?

In the vibrant city of Guwahati, 13-year-old Deiji Lahkar lived with her brother Mausam and their father Kameshwar. One day, they discovered that their old family home was being sold to make way for a new mall. This news left them devastated, as the house was filled with precious memories of their late mother. The thought of losing their home created tension among them. They needed to find a way to save it.

Deiji suggested they talk to the city council, but Mausam was skeptical. 'They won't listen to us,' he said. Despite their doubts, they decided to give it a try. When they arrived at the council office, they were met with a long line and unsympathetic officials. It seemed like their plea would go unheard.

After a frustrating day at the council, Deiji and Mausam argued about what to do next. 'Why don't you ever listen to me?' Deiji snapped. 'We can't give up now!' Mausam retorted. Their father Kameshwar tried to mediate but ended up feeling overwhelmed himself. The tension between them grew stronger, making it harder to find a solution.

Feeling defeated, Deiji considered giving up. 'Maybe it’s hopeless,' she said, slumping onto the couch. Mausam sat beside her silently, lost in his own thoughts. Kameshwar watched his children, feeling their pain. The family was on the verge of giving up their fight to save their home.

Just then, an old family friend, Aunt Meera, visited them. 'I've heard about your problem,' she said. 'Why not start a community petition?' Deiji's eyes lit up. 'That's a great idea!' Mausam agreed. With renewed hope, they decided to gather signatures from their neighbors and friends.

With determination, they went door-to-door, explaining their situation and collecting signatures. 'Thank you for your support,' Deiji said to each neighbor. The community rallied behind them, and they presented the petition to the council. After much deliberation, the council decided to preserve their home as a historical landmark. The Lahkars learned the power of tolerance and community support.
