Suddenly I stopped walking, as a thought struck me. Why was I

working for the extra three hours in my office? Why were the

buses on strike on that very day?

Why was I having an ice cream that day from that particular
vendor while I did not even touch one since the last two years?

Yes, I was destined to meet the boy and the boy was destined

to have his ice cream. I realized that all these setups had been

pre planned so that the innocent boy who is blind to the luxuries
of the world, can have his wish fulfilled just for this day. I never

wondered even in my wildest dreams that only for working three

hours extra, I can be blessing in disguise to this stranger. I
figured that our lives are just a game of dice, a game played by

the supernatural forces with much accuracy and tactics.

Whenever, we have a bad time or a few bad days- something

rewarding is surely planned for us in the near future.
