Rhehan drove the car, inside the now tiled, drive way of the orphanage. Today was the official opening of the orphanage original building, which had been fully repaired by Excel corporation, within few days and sponsored by Elizabeth. The children had to be s.h.i.+fted back to their original building, who were in the meanwhile residing in another old wing of the orphanage!
As he drove, on his right side was now a beautiful large garden, full of colorful swings, which was earlier just a barren land, full of wild plants. Many kids were happily playing on those swings, already.
As the car drove a little further, a newly constructed building of a school could be seen on his left side. The white colored walls of the school had bright cartoons, painted all over it. As he drove further, he stopped at the porch of the orphanage.
What was earlier an old worn out building, was now a fully repaired, freshly painted building, designed according to british architechture.
He got off from his car and entered the reception area. The freshly tiled and painted room now had, a large wooden reception desk, with a sitting area in one corner. Earlier all Rhehan could see was poor kids, sleeping on the floor in this room.
He walked happily, in the corridor of the repaired building, and reached a freshly installed library. Two people were hired to handle this library and to Rhehan"s delight, he could already see hundereds of students sitting in the library and reading the books happily.
Tears dropped down from his eyes as he saw the kids studying, with complete dedication. He wiped away his tears, when suddenly someone offered him a hankerchief. He looked up and saw Elizabeth standing in front of him.
He immediately broke down in tears looking at her and hugged the lady. Elizabeth smiled, and hugged back the boy, patting his back. "You have done a veey good job Rhehan! I am so so so proud of you my boy! No wonder, you were not meant to be in the jungle. Then who would have done all this?"
Rhehan wiped his tears and looked at Elizabeth, trying to smile. "Thank you for helping me mom!"
"Aww! My baby!" She kissed the boy"s cheek happily and held his hand. "Come!"
Elizabeth held the boy"s hand, taking him to the far end of the corridor. She entered a gigantic airy room, which was comparatively very noisy.
Rhehan smiled looking at the vast frshly repaired room. This was an eating place for the kids, where they were given three meals every day. Hundereds of kids were now sitting on the new benches, enjoying eating delicious food happily, while some of the already appointed school teachers, were demonstarting how to use a fork and a spoon.
Rhehan smiled looking at the happy children, struggling to eat with forks. As soon as they both entered the room, every kid stopped eating and stood up clapping for them in grat.i.tude. Many of them left their places and gathered around the two of them, telling them how thankful they were.
"I studied maths today!"
"I studied two chapters today!"
"I played on the swings for two hours!"
"I ate long- long noodles today!"
"My new bed had a disney cartoon on it!"
"Today was my first day at school!"
"I got a new dress!"
They all started telling Elizabeth and Rhehan their wonderful experiences of their first day. While the crybaby was once again in tears, Elizabeth got herself busy talking and explaining few things to the kids.
After one more hour of crying, Rhehan finally calmed down and spoke to the kids. "I hope everything is arranged and prepared! We just have a few hours left, till Miss Rose comes here!"
"What? A birthday surprise?" Elizabeth asked in excitement looking at the kids?
"Yes!!!!!!" They all replied excitedly.
