The Pond, Butterflies and the Rainbow

By Athula Withanage

The book presents a rich and heart-warming portrait of an exceptional single father and his love for his seven-year-old daughter. The story is about the struggle of the young doctor trying his best to take care of his seven-year-old daughter on his own while working in the second biggest Covid-19 unit in the country. While working in the hospital, he had a close encounter with a Corona patient, and he was isolated for a couple of weeks, leaving his daughter 'home alone' helpless. A young nurse comes to his rescue in looking after the girl during his quarantine period. The daughter and the nurse become blossom friends, to the extent that she calls the nurse 'mum'. After being a bachelor for four years after the loss of his wife, he becomes involved romantically with the young nurse. Then there was another twist to the story, breaking the heart of the young nurse who loved both (father & daughter) so much. He had to take the difficult decision, in the interest of his daughter, whom he protected with his life.
