Story starts
________________
Bondita was alone at the house with varun(son of bondita) as her barrister babu were out due to some reason. So she came with an idea of cleaning her almirah, she got of the bed and stood up to clean the almirah which she lastly cleaned 2 years ago. She found a photograph book, and took it out after cleaning. She saw a marriage picture of her and her barrister babu without any cover kept inside it. Actually, that was the only photograph clicked. She just wanted to safeguard it so she started finding an empty cover and found it besides a marriage photograph of her and sumedh. (Being a sumedhian I just ended up using this name. Okay! On the story line, she'll refer sumedh as pati babu and sumedh is varun's by blood father. Anirudh was sumedh's elder friend who was a barrister but by studies he was also a teacher for law students. ) She remembered her pain and smiled. She thought "those days were so good, the day i married sumedh, I was just 10 and he was 14. We didn't even knew the defination of love at that time but yaa, we loved each other. I still remember the day when I was informed about my pregnency. And the pain started. "

Flashback
Bondita got unconscious during her second lesson by anirudh(ya he just started teaching her before 2 days her pregnency news was discovered) and sumedh brought her up in the room. Doctor was called and he informed them about her pregnency. And anirudh was sent back home without informing anything. And the story continues after she gets her conscious.
When she opened her eyes she saw sumedh sitting beside her, holding her hand. (Btw it's a dream for a sumedhian but yaa lets continue) his face was like he can cry at any moment she held his hand. after knowing that now she is in her conscious sumedh said
Sumedh : bondita i am sorry
Bondita : pati babu, why are you saying sorry, you never did anything wrong to me..
Sumedh : (cuts her) you are pregnent. (As sumedh was continuing his education of being a doctor he knew that being a mother at 16 is not good. If bondita gets pregnent at 16 she'll be mother at 17 offcourse which is not a good decision as it may affect her and their child's life and health. )
Bondita : so..
Sumedh :(almost shout) that's not fair bondita you also know that it can cause danger to your life. (And then he sees her sitting in a frighting manner, she was so scared. ) I am sorry bondita. I have done it wrong. If I wasn't drunk that night I might not have touched you in that way. (Touches her cheeks by his hands) I am sorry.
At that very moment sumedh's father entered the room and said
Sumedh's father : (whispered) so the medicine worked. Bondita is pregnent finally. (Ya, that night sumedh's father gave that medicine to sumedh due to which she was now pregnent with sumedh's child. )
Sumedh : dad how was your journey. How are you now, and what were you whispering, which medicine worked
Dad : no medicine, which medicine..
Sumedh : dad why are you nervous,
Dad : actually...
Sumedh : oh, the medicine you gave me day before yesterday, ..
Dad : ya, that. Medicine was
Sumedh : of head ache
Dad : no, that medicine was of
Sumedh : dad what are you saying
Dad : that medicine was the reason that you were craving for sex that night.
Sumedh : what, what do you mean dad.
Dad : ya, I am Sorry I came here just to inform you about this only.
Sumedh : how did you do this dad. Just because of you all this mess happened.
His dad went outside without listening anything. (I know there some kind of scam happened but still) And after that all it happened. Sumedh at first was wanting abortion and then agreed but at last he said
Sumedh : agar mujhe bondita aur bachhe mein se kisi 1 ko chun na pada na toh main bondita ko hi chunu ga chahe woh uske baad kabhi ma na ban paye.
And then..
Flashback ends

"Bondita tum ro kyu rahi ho"
She came out of her thoughts and saw anirudh standing in front of him. Anirudh saw the photograph and he too remembered the moment when bondita's dilevery was taking place and he was to choose between bondita and her child, because now he was her husband and all sumedh's family was stanting behind him hoping that he may choose the child as the truth of our marriage was out to everyone.
Flashback
Anirudh 's POV
I went to sumedh's house to teach bondita. She was a brilliant child. She was so Intelligent and I think she will be a great barrister ahead. She studing in class 12th and I think sumedh decision of persuing bondita 's father dream to make her a barrister was right. I went and saw that sumedh's family was throwing out bondita out of house and I saw sumedh's dead body. I stopped them and said, "don't you know, she is pregnent. " And then sumedh's mom said "that's the reason we haven't done sati yet"..
Flashback ends.

But i choose bondita as i had to complete her father's and husband's dream yet. And all the family of sumedh asked the reason and i said, 'think sumedh instead of me'. Everyone was now quiet. And the delivery happened. To our surprize bondita and her child both were saved and she was blessed with a baby boy. But sumedh's family took the baby with them and  God knows why bondita agreed to give them the baby. I wanted that baby should be with her but...
Pov end

And bondita hugged me tightly.
She whispered "Barrister Babu"
Anirudh held her by her shoulder and made her sit on bed and handed her a glass of water. She remember that sumedh too handled her in the same way like he did in her pregnency. She hugged him again as she felt the fear of loosing sumedh and she didnt wanted to loose him.
Flashback
Bondita : please don't go, how'll i live 1 week behind you.
Sumedh : but it's only a week, and i too don't want to go but it's for my practicals right.
Bondita : okay, you go, no one cares for me, okay, I'll survive no matter if I die missing y..
And sumedh put his finger on her lips. He couldn't even imagine her dying. He kissed her forehead.
Flashback over

Some moments passed. And then varun started crying
Bondita : ohho! Varun
and started making him calm down and he slept once again. They remembered the pain she had in her heart for loosing him as she was blackmailed at first that being a single mother she will not Be able to handle varun properly. But the month after she bacame barrister she found two of sumedh's brothers fighting for varun because of sumedh's property. She got into the matter and with the help of anirudh got varun and the property was handed over to both of the brothers equally. Now she don't want to loose them as now she is incomplete without them.
The end
