Part 19 # The Struggle Starts

Susheela comes home after meeting Pramod. She had some classes today from noon to evening. So she goes to college to attend those. She is currently missing Pramod a lot. Doesn't know how will she manage 3 years. However, classes get finished as well. Susheela is unable to forget Pramod just for a moment. He is in front of her eyes every time, every second. Returning home, Susheela thinks to have dinner and after that, she will talk to Pramod. As it's 8 p.m., he must have reached till now.

(Note: It takes 8 - 9 hours to reach London from India.)

Everyone is having dinner together in dining room. Suddenly, Susheela's phone rings.

"Who is it?"

*Cuts the call as fast as possible*

"No papa, no one (fake smile)!"

Everybody concentrates on eating. Again the phone rings.

"Who is it hmm? Calling so many times... go and pick up! Does it feel good having so much disturbance while dining?"

"Umm, sorry papa, I'll be back in a minute.."

*Leaves table*

"Hello?"

"Susheela ji! How are you?"

Who is over the phone? Yes, it's Pramod.

"Bad... didn't you find any other time to call me? I was dining in front of Dharampal ji, and you kept calling? What if he threw my phone away? What would I do then?"

"Why would Dharampal ji do that? The phone was bought by money, right (laughs)?"

"Hm hmm.. very funny! By the way, what are you doing now?"

"I just had my lunch some time ago... now relaxing in the room... my classes will start from tomorrow.. then I'll get busy but of course, will call you once in a day.."

"(Light smile) Okay... Bye.."

"Bye..."

Susheela comes and sits on her chair again.

"Who called?"

"It was Pramod.. called to inform that he reached there.."

"(Chest voice) Hmmm..."

The next day it's holiday. Susheela feels better as if she went to college, she would have surely missed Pramod all the time. She is going stay in her home today only, plans to complete assignments and help mummy in household chores. Dharampal goes to his shop as usual. In the shop, some of Dharampal's old friends come to meet him.

"What's happening Dharampal? Oh, you were talking about your daughter's marriage, right? What about that?"

"What do I say, yaar! The boy was ready to marry but suddenly he had to go abroad... so everything stopped."

"So? For how long?"

"He said about 3 years.."

"3 YEARS! Dharampal did you think? Will you keep Susheela sitting at home for 3 years more? You have such a fame in this area, if people hear this, they will laugh at you.."

"(Dharampal goes in a deep thinking.)"

"Listen, we're your friends, won't give you wrong advice! You must do one thing... you keep searching for a guy by appointing some people... who knows? Susheela may agree to your proposal or she may like someone? At least one will be chosen for sure among hundreds, right?"

"Hmm, I guess you're right..."

"Let us do one thing, we will appoint some of our familiar people who will search for guys for your Susheela..."

"(Keeps thinking)"

Another day passes. Susheela comes to college today but the worst thing is, Priyanka is absent. Already she was missing Pramod and thought to speak with Priyanka so that she can keep her mood good. But now she is feeling very disappointed. Still she finds a seat for her and passes the entire college day only sitting there. After college, Susheela was going to home but she sees that for a small argument, there is a huge crowd near the main gate of the college. So she decides to go using the old & second gate which is behind the college building. She was going to cross the gate but some boys come from her back and block her road.. Susheela is strong enough, right? But they just came and tied a black piece of cloth on Susheela's eyes. She can't see anything but still tries to free herself throwing hands & legs. Even she succeeds in crushing the toes of the guy holding Susheela. But for the black cloth, she was unable to notice things properly. One was holding Susheela, and the other were circling around her with their cycles..

"LEAVE ME!!!"

"Wait! Why so hurry? We heard that, your lover, the most intelligent guy of our college (silently- never!) went to abroad for studies? You do one thing, just leave him alone and come to any of us! Anyone is ready to marry you, alright?"

"SHUT UP! I SAID LEAVE ME!!!"

That was all here...Thanks for reading!
