Benaam Rishta:An Invisible String

Season2: Chapter1

The moon's orbit around the Earth moves it in between Earth and the sun,it was facing away from the Earth thus making the earth side dark. and the clouds also stretched a black blanket to infinity accross the whole sky turning the unilluminated night of Amavasya darkest and dreadful one. In this dead of midnight,a man in his 27's was scampering accross a deserted road senselessly. after running almost half an hour he found his destination but unfortunately it was too late. The inevitable fate already exercised it's cruelty.

Like an Inanimate creature He fell on his knees, blank deep ocean eyes of his deadpan countenance' were stucked to the burning Hut infront of him. He felt the surroundings covered by an uncanny silence except that girl's painful scream. Screaming to save her, to save her unborn infant, and Heart-wrenching pleadings for justice....which he miserably faild to give her. the horrendous view infront of him replayed some haunting memories, making him drown in the plethora of culpability. Finally A lone drop of tears rolled down from the corner of his right eye seemed to burn his skin to death. More than the blazing fire of the Hut, unceasing prolonged fire inside of him forced him to let out a soul stirring scream in agony.

The fire stopped, indicating that everything was over. He slowly turned to those cannibals around him, and there the horrific tsunami occurred..he roared like a wild lion "Are you all satisfied now? Killing that innocent girl and unborn infant! Your false ego has definitely increased! Why did you do this? What was their fault? Why not let her live as her own?......

His tone of voice became lower but eyes were raining mercilessly. Everyone started laughing mocking him. Suppressing laughter one of them voiced,

"We did absolutely right. She was a sinner. She sinned to cross the line of decency, of a decent women. And That child was it's impure result. She tainted our society by her filthy deeds and dared to think of bring her illegitimate child to world. So we punished her. we burnt her alive along with her illegitimate child to sanctify our society"

"She wasn't sinner" he gritted in rage shooting fireball through eyes "she didn't impure your damn society. impure is your thoughts. All of your mind is filled with garbage that none of you can think of anything else other than this shit "Kill women. Sanctify society!" Why? Are you all here as holy as the water of Ganga? haven't you committed any sin? Tell me? When everyone has committed one or the other sin in life, then who gave you the right to punish others?" There's no response for a few seconds. All of them gulped their dried up throat under his bloodshot intense gaze. They didn't dare to utter a single word to hear his strident voice..

"Why? I'm unable to see any God here!, You are also looking human like her!. No. No. you are no human. You all are beast, the devil that rules the earth in human form, and treats women like objects.." his eyes fell on a middle aged man who was stepping back in fear. but he was fast enough to catch him taking some rapid steps.

"You...you should be ashamed of yourself. Your hands did not tremble once to kill your own daughter so cruelly? How did you do this?how could you???"

Countenance of that man took a sudden change as He muttered in disgustful tone "No. Rather I'm ashamed to call her my daughter. She has defamed my family. So this was what she deserved"

He squeezed his eyes shut. fist clenched in extreme anger . Taking a sharp breath spoke again.."Ohh really!..Only she deserved this punishment! Why? She alone was able to get pregnant? That child had the power to come in his/her mother's womb on it's own? Even if you say the child an ille... illegitim..ate but He/she also was a creation of almighty God just like us. And if you consider it a sin, then both, the girl and the boy should be punished equally. but Why is that boy roaming openly till now?why he is allowed to live but not that innocent girl?..."
