Years of Dumbness

When destiny puts something on you, the elders say, noone can disagree with it. Following that fate, I was born as a normal child few years back. The newborn's cry lasted a few minutes to shower happiness among the family members. Like flowers in a garden, I was brought up. Even now the happiness in my first voice is saved in my parent's memory. Yet, I preferred dumbness to be an unvoiced promise.
