       "OUR CHOICE OUR LIVES"
Its a story about two brother, Gaurav and Mihir. Mihir was the elder one and was a 12 grader student and his brother was in 9th class. Both of them were expert in basketball.  The younger one Gaurav always looked up to Mihir and tried to be like him.
     Mihir was a kind of famous boy in the school beside being the captain of the basketball team. Gaurav was in the junior team and wanted to be selected as the captain. He had a good friend named Anannya whom he liked but was a shy guy and could not confess about it to her. Mihir had a girlfriend  named Kanika. But he had a great secret within him which he had to deep inside himself that he was not a straight guy but was attracted to other guys.
    He felt afraid to open up because he thought this society was not a perfect place which will give him a space for having a moment with another guy. He was afraid that he would lose all his family and his friends if they got to know that he was a gay and not a straight guy. He even felt bad for Kanika cause he kept her with him only to show himself as a straight person.
    His brother Gaurav had a Rock band in school who were preparing for their performance in the assembly. Mihir had an idea , Gaurav should propose Anannya after the performance and make a song which dedicatated her life with him. Gaurav , his friends Rohan, Kit, Tanvy and one other girl who was the friend of Mihir and also Mihir's friend's girlfriend. They all enjoyed making their song.
    Finally the day arrived of their performance and all went good . They got a "once more" . Annanya wasn't happy after knowing that Gaurav liked her because she always thought they were best friends.  This thing got stuck into Gaurav's head and he was quite upset. That day he didn't went to his after school basketball practice. He was tired and walked home with his brother Mihir.
      After reaching home he was so tired that he felt asleep in the bed before freshening himself. After an hour he woke up with a sudden voice that he heard out of his room. He got a little alert and tried to hear it again. He heard his brother giggling with someone. At first he thought that it might be Kanika. He went upto Mihir's room to see her and say hello to her.
   As soon as he opened the door he was abacked to see his brother with his friend Varun in the bed having close moments with their clothes off. This brought him into a deep depression.  For many days he was unable to eat and talk to anyone.
    Mihir always tried to explain him but Gaurav was unable to face his brother's reality. Mihir decided to tell about this stuff to his friend including Kanika. At first Kanika got angry but later she realized that a person cannot be justified by his character.  She got it that even if he is a gay she have to accept him.
   Their was another performance of the rock band and Gaurav dedicated this song to his brother.
    "Bolenge de do rihaye khudko bolenge. Kholenge pinjre ye saare kholenge."(this means they will say to themselves whenever they got a a chance and they will open all the cages to set him free) . Mihir understood the song was for him . Later when Mihir went to the basketball ground he saw Gaurav was waiting for him. Gaurav came running and hugged Mihir tightly and cried bitterly. Again they both living like brothers . Mihir's parents took time to understand his situation but it did not affected Mihir because he wanted the support of his brother and he got that. This story has got another qoute which is delivered by Gaurav
   "Ham bacche hai , bewakuf nahi"(this means even if we are children we are not dump people . We have got brains)
This was the end of my story . Hope you enjoyed. Please its my request to all. We are in a modern society so we should understand these issues so that the victim does not commit suicide.
