I received various ideas about this prompt. Whether it is a love story, a crime story, or a horror story, all of them must take place on board an airplane. I chose this prompt after considering it from different angles. I hope you will join me in exploring this story. From here, I start and invite you, not only to Kevin's world but also to mine and yours...

It was a large deck. All the travelers were carrying their travel bags and wandering around there. There were airplanes parked far away. Kevin stood there amazed and awestruck at the grandeur of the place. Kevin was an 8-year-old boy. The deck was very large. Not only his house but the deck was bigger than the house of the richest farmer in the town.

Suddenly, the boy, felt like he was in a dense forest with tall trees and shrubs, just like the Amazon forests he had seen on television. There were wild boars everywhere, and the forest was alive with their sounds. The forest extended for miles and was illuminated by the bright sun on the distant horizon. A small group of monkeys was playing in the trees. A leopard chased the deer. Amid the forest flowed a river, with its clear waters reflecting a yellowish hue. A lion, standing on a rock on the right side, spotted and roared at him. He was Scared, turned back, and saw a fox standing in front of him.

The fox looked at him and said, 'Don't be afraid! Come with me! I will save you from the Lion King'. He was trembling with fear. At that moment, someone grabbed his hands from behind. Doraemon was standing there. Doraemon is Kevin's favorite cartoon character he watches it every day on TV.

"Oh! Doraemon... Doraemon..." exclaimed Kevin in excitement and surprise.

"Hey Kevin, why are you standing there?" asked Doraemon in response.

"Isn't there a big airplane standing over there? I came to go in it, but I don't know how to go,' said Kevin.

"All right, I'll take you there," replied Doraemon, and then he took out his bamboo copter from his pocket. Doraemon grabbed his hand and placed the device on his head. Both of them began to fly in the air with the device. Both of them started flying in the distance above. The next moment Kevin was sitting inside the airplane. Beside him sat his neighbor Blessy.

"Aye! Blessy sissy! Did you also come to go in the airplane?" asked Kevin.

"Yeah, did you come too?" Blessy replied.

The seat behind him was occupied by a rich former in his town. He was staring at him. He got frightened and moved aback.

In the meantime, a man named George, holding a boy with a bag in his hand, rushed past them. Asking "Hey! Did you steal my mangoes?” He ran away with it, the boy, who looked like Kevin, Kevin was just like the boy who was looking at something.

"sissy! sissy! Can I sit by the window in that middle seat?" Kevin asked for his place.

"I can't do all that, no. I will be sick and vomit," she said.

"Please, please" he begged, not letting her go.

In a moment of frustration, she said, "All right, let's go," and motioned for him to move.

Kevin, who came and sat near the window, couldn't contain his happiness. He was so happy. He opened the window of the plane and looked out. A gust of cold wind slapped his face. Then an old man came into the plane selling candies. When he saw it, he felt like buying candy and eating it. He reached into his trouser pocket. There was a rupee. He gave it and bought candy. The candy was not like the ones he usually eats. Its color was different. Needless to say, the taste was so delicious that he had never had candy like this before. He came looking at all the visible clouds through the window. The sky was clear blue.

He saw all the clouds that he had come to know so well, and they looked so beautiful in white. A cloud was pouring raindrops. The scene was so beautiful to watch. He reached out and grabbed the cloud that was nearby. It lathered in his hands. It was milky white. It felt like cotton in his hands. He was staring at the cloud. It winked at him. He was very happy. He just kept looking at that cloud. It brought him great joy.

After a while, he felt the need to urinate. Not knowing where to go, he ran with his hands clasped over his crotch. The plane landed in the sky and its hatch opened.

He was impressed by the scene he saw. He didn't know whether to be amazed or afraid. Outside, it was as dark as pitch, with stars shining brightly. The clouds were mingling with one another. He was tempted to go out. Before he could recover from his shock, the stairs came from the plane. He struggled to put on his boots. He stretched his leg out and finally mustered up the courage to put his feet up the stairs. He went down the stairs. He got down thinking that he had to urinate there. The stairs were located in the distance. Clouds were moving all around. A meadow was visible in the distance. Looking at it, he got down.

His pants were soaked. Kevin was currently lying in his seat on the plane. Then he heard a thump as "Tommm" tapped him. He turned to look and saw four men in black suits holding guns. Seeing this, his body shook with fear.

One of the four men said, "We have kidnapped you, and we will kill each one of you."

All the passengers pleaded, "Oh Nooo! please, let us go, let us go."

At that moment, a voice echoed saying, "I cannot allow you to harm them in any way." Spiderman stood there, and his face was visible to everyone. Without delay, Spiderman quickly grabbed the gun from their hand with the use of his gum and threw it down, then ran and disappeared behind Kevin. And then Shinchan (cartoon character) took all the guns and ran and sat next to Kevin, holding all those guns. Kevin was shocked.

"Oh, Shinchan, how did you come here?" asked Kevin.

"Signal came from that small boy Spiderman that he needed to help, So, I flew here," Shin-chan replied as usual.

Then, unexpectedly the plane tilted towards a mountain. "Yikes, Jalli! I'm going to die, you're going to die, we're all going to die! Hemawari, we're going to crash!" exclaimed Shin-chan.

Kevin didn't even realised what was happening before the plane hit a rock and exploded. Kevin was thrown out and fell.

Then a beautiful angel in a white dress came flying. It came up to Kevin and said 'Kevin, wake up! Wake up! '.

Kevin looked up. His mother was standing in front of him. 'Are you still sleepy' she asked.

Kevin looked around. He was sleeping in his house. His clothes were all wet around him. He had peed in his sleep.

He said, 'Mom, I had a dream and it was very good.'

'oh, my son! you don't have another job, I had a lot of work. Get up and brush your teeth.' replied Kevin's mother nonchalantly.

At that time, Kevin ran out quickly and his mother shouted, "Where are you going?" but he just ran past her. Above them, a plane was flying. Kevin watched it with nostalgia and very much desired, "Will we ever get to ride in that one day?" The pain and feeling filled him. “Would we ever get a chance to see it up close?” The thought and expectation overwhelmed him. Then his mother came out.

"Mom, can we all go in this?" Kevin asked.

"We can go, son! You're good at studying and you have a lot of money when you grow up, we can go like other rich people," she replied.

"Can we go to Jean's house in an airplane, Mom? He even let me play with his toy airplane last time I visited him," he asked and said with a sad tone. With tears in her eyes, his mother hugged him tightly and comforted him. The dreams and aspirations that a child with no means or opportunities has in his heart will one day come true, she hoped.

Children like Kevin live among children who are living happy and fulfilling lives every day. They are born in a poor village without any basic facilities and wait for their dreams to come true someday. This story is a small attempt to reflect the thoughts of those children.
