Episode 1: Echoes of the Past
In a small village nestled between emerald hills, Arjun sat on the creaky porch of his family home, the sun dipping low, casting golden rays on the ground. Memories of his childhood swirled like the autumn leaves dancing in the breeze. Rani and Vikram, his parents, were not just figures from the past; they were the heartbeats of his present. Each day, Arjun visited their old storytelling spot, where laughter once mingled with tales of love and resilience. As he closed his eyes, the echoes of their voices filled his mind. "Arjun, stories bind us together," Rani would say, her eyes sparkling with warmth. That bond felt frayed now, lost amid grief and silence.
