the great transformation

**chapter 20**

    Pragya's p.o.v

              It was the first day for my college . I was so excited about it . I did not even sleep properly yesterday due to excitement . It was already 7. i should be there at 8.30 . I was in my room checking my bag . That is when he came . He came after going for a walk . I gave a small smile to him .Yes . Because we cannot fight all our life for his one mistake . I decided to be normal without any grudge. Yes i was angry on him because I thought that my mother believed his words and went away that day . But when my mother said that he asked for her to come to my farewell my anger subsided a little . And when he helped me in the train , i saw a true concern in his eyes . I saw humanity in his eyes . I understood that he was sweet at heart . and about the sign i did not get it from him as i don't want that to be a burden to him . After all he is doing these things to mend his mistakes , why to maintain grudge and ego? every one deserves to be good . And i am not the one who keep on poking the old issues . 

        i stood up and went towards him . 

" I am leaving to college " I said . 

" Yes . okay ." he said . and i started to move and then i was stopped by him calling me .

he came towards me with a box . What was that? i wondered .He gave it to me . I was surprized .

" What is it ? " i asked out of curiosity .

" Well . Open it by yourself " He said passing a small smile . 

" Okay " i smiled and opened it . It was a phone . This man does not leave a chance to surprise me .I don't have a phone . I had missed my phone when he dragged me to the idol to forcefully Marry me . But for time being i was using a basic model old phone of Meethi . May be he thought i don't have one  because Meethi always calls him like she  called him that night and spoke about my admission as i switched of my phone . i flashed a smile .

" That is a phone " he said .

" Well but i have one " And i showed him mine . 

" Is that a phone ? " He asked.

"What is wrong with this one ?" i asked. 

" Nothing . Just use this phone ." He said .

" Well . i did not say i am going to return . Anyway it was your fault that i lost my own phone . So i will consider it a compensation okay . This phone , i am going to keep this with me . " i said .

He chuckled and i turned to go to college but again stopped. 

" Pragya . Do you want me to drop you in the college?" he asked . 

" No. i will go with Meethi . she is waiting for me ". i said . he noded . And i went to college . 

   The first day was awesome and I and Meethi thoroughly enjoy it . And i went to home . i saw Dadi sitting in the hall . I went towards her . I felt free with dadi the same way i felt with my Mother . Here dadi was a mother and a friendly figure to me i narrated all the things that had happened in college and she listened to me eagerly . And we discussed some other gossips. Seriously ,that feels good when we spent the whole time chitchatting . After sometimes i retired to my room . And this was one of the memorable days in my life . 

After two months 

              Everything went good . My college life was good . And Ice that was between us was slowly breaking down .And i felt lonely in the house as dadi had went to her sister's house for stay . I would feel lonely as i would come by 5 to house and he would come at 8 or 9 or sometimes even ten .Even too  I was happy until that day . The day when a man came to house holding him with one hand on his shoulder . He had blood scars in his body . His white shirt was full blood . And his right hand was Bandaged .  I ran towards him and holded him by arms .
