Unnikale Oru Kadha Parayam

Eby is taken from his home by a street performer who subjects him to years of abuse. He endures life on the streets with other orphans, clinging to any hope of safety. One night, he musters the courage to run away from his abuser.

A wealthy man named Thomas Abraham rescues Eby and becomes his adoptive father. Eby experiences a protective, fatherly bond that offers him welcome stability. This period of safety is abruptly interrupted by a sudden tragedy.

Thomas dies suddenly, and Eby is left homeless when his adoptive family’s estranged wife and brothers reclaim the wealth. They force him out of the home and away from any claim to Thomas's fortune. He must return to the streets with little more than his resilience and a mission to help others like him.

While wandering the streets, Eby encounters more abused and orphaned children. He feels a deep empathy and takes it upon himself to protect and care for them, forming a small, nomadic group. Their shared hardship strengthens his resolve to build a safer life for all of them.

A church priest hears Eby’s story and offers practical help to change the children’s fortunes. He advises sending the kids to school to gain education and future opportunities. Moved by the plea, he becomes a supportive ally.

With financial aid from the priest, Eby begins planning for the children’s education and sets up a farm to sustain the expenses. The farm represents a forward-looking foundation for stability and growth. This marks a shift from mere survival to organized care.

Annie Mol, a close relative of Ouseppachan who lost her parents in a plane crash, enters their life and develops a romantic bond with Eby. Her presence adds a new emotional dimension to their community. They navigate love while continuing to protect the children.

Eby returns to town for his father’s death anniversary and discovers he is a terminal heart patient. The realization shifts the story toward a race against time. He faces the gravity of his condition with resolve to protect the kids and Annie.

Determined to spend his final days with the children and Annie, Eby leaves the hospital and retreats to be with them. He confronts the reality of his illness and seeks meaningful moments in the remaining time. The act is a testament to his selflessness and love.

Feeling a responsibility toward the children’s future, Eby decides to send them to the priest’s orphanage, an idea he had initially resisted. The plan aims to provide them a stable education and care. The moment marks a selfless turn in his final chapters.

Annie learns about Eby’s terminal illness and is devastated by the news. She resolves to stand beside him and support the children through the difficult days ahead. Her reaction underscores the emotional stakes of the story.

That night, Eby has a vision of the children running to him calling his name. The next morning, the Priest, Annie, and the children find him resting in peace. His departure leaves them in tears, but with a sense of his enduring care.
