Ravi is a fourteen-year-old teenager. He used to be the school track king. No other athlete in the district could match his speed. All that changed, however. He is incapable of running now. He sits in a wheelchair, thanks to a drunk driver. The car knocked him down as he was about to cross the street after practice one afternoon. Many students who showered him with praises now make unkind remarks about him. Suddenly, he is unpopular. Nevertheless, he puts up a brave front and ignores the impolite stares he receives as he struggles to lead a normal school life.
