After Two Days
At Night
Pragya was sitting on the lawn of the house.
Sarla: Didn't you sleep Pragya?
Pragya turned to her mother, hearing her voice.
Pragya: I didn't feel sleepy ma.
Sarla sat beside and held Pragya's hand.
Sarla: What's bothering you?
Pragya: How do you know that something is bothering me?
Sarla: I'm your mother, Pragya. No one knows you as well as I know you.
Sarla said, while she was caressing Pragya's head.
Sarla: Are you not happy with the job?
Pragya: No ma. I mean, I get paid well and I'm able to handle our house expenses and Papa's medical bills. It's pretty good.
Sarla looked at her sadly.
Sarla: Pragya, you don't need to go to a job you don't like for your family. Don't take this burden on yourself dear.
Pragya: It's not a burden ma. It's my family and I would do anything for you guys.
Sarla: Yes, but if you are not happy with the job, then find a job which suits you.
Pragya: Actually, I'm not upset about the job.
Sarla: Then what is bothering you?
Pragya hesitated to tell her.
Sarla: Are you in love with someone?
Pragya was taken aback, hearing Sarla's question.
Sarla: Don't hesitate. I would be the happiest person if I get to know that you love someone. You know I was thinking about finding a groom for you. But that won't be necessary. We would be more than happy to get you married if that is what you are worried about.
Pragya sighs tiredly.
Pragya: That's not the matter. I mean, like it's kind of a situation where I have to make a decision which might affect a person's life. And it's a tough choice. I don't know what to do.
Pragya said nervously.
Sarla: I don't understand what you are talking about. Tell me in detail.
Pragya: I can't.
Pragya said upset.
Sarla: Okay fine. All I can say is choose what your heart says. But don't make a decision which you might regret.
Pragya: How would I know that?
Sarla: You will know.
Sarla placed a kiss on Pragya's head and went from there.
Pragya: Why are people so keen on confusing me?
Pragya thought in her mind.
