'I had locked the door from inside...so how come she is here inside?' I said to myself.

My mind reasoned, 'Come on, she is the landlord's daughter. She must be having a duplicate key.'

'How come you are here?" I asked her gathering my wits.

"I had to settle the score," she said, and hissed, "You people come here for your own selfish needs of becoming a citizen here and you put on an act of marrying an American Girl out of love and then change colors.

Do you take us so cheap? I can't forgive a treacherous person like you.

But now I won't serve as a ladder for any one. I will kill you!"

Suddenly she picked up the sharp edge kitchen knife and pounced at me.

Had I been a bit slow to react, the knife could have gone through my heart.

"Dona! Are you crazy? Come to your senses, girl.I ain't treacherous." I screamt at her.

But she slashed my arm.

I kept pleading, " Believe Me, Dona! I am not disloyal. I wanted to marry you carried away by my love for you"

"If you don't want to marry me, I will go away from your life" I said .

Dona stepped back and spoke, "That is better for your-", she turned and walked off the door.

"CRAZY GIRL!", I moaned and rushed to the doctor.
