Blog Prompt 4 - My favourite part in Village by the Sea

My favourite part in the story would be the ending. Not surprisingly, this is again a happy ending, not unlike from most stories, if not all.

Firstly, it was Diwali and Hari had come back from Bombay. His mother and sisters missed him a lot, and were certainly glad to have him back. Hari had become more independent and grown-up, and went to Alibagh to fetch his mother, who had recovered from her illness, which brings me to my next point. The mother had suffered a bad case anemia and was extremely severe, but the de Silvas brought her to the hospital, and she was finally cured. She would be able to fulfill her role as a mother then.

Furthermore, the father had given up drinking and turned over a new leaf, when he found out that the mother was in the hospital. He realized his mistake, and the impact of it on his family. I believed he was truly sorry for what he had done. Therefore, he would start performing his duty as a father of four children.

Besides that, the future of the family is bright. Hari’ watch mending skill would bring a steady income for the family, when lots of townspeople came to Thul to work in the factories. Meantime, they could set up a poultry farm, which would be the first and successful too. Hari’s father could also find himself a job. In a nutshell, they did not have to worry about financial difficulties.

Well, the ending is close to perfect, thus it is my favourite part in Village by the Sea. What about you?
