Chapter 4 - ARGUEMENT

As those words shower out of my voice box, Ramaiya stood up and said, "What the fuck are you even talking about brother? Change? This world? Which is rotten since ages! Do you even have the power to do anything? These kids died because of the system not us, you single handedly can't ever do anything. Try to understand, it was destiny, and we have cremated them, they are in a peaceful place now, let them be there, let's go."

"Yesterday that kid said what if something happens with your loved ones? What if Leela is raped and left on road to die? What if Sarthak's intestines are in his hands when he is screaming for help on the footpath?" I said.

"Don't you dare talk about my kids like that!" Ramaiya replied furiously.

"If words can hurt a grown up man like you, think about what happened with the kids." Isaid calmly.

"For god's sake please shut the fuck up about the kids! THEY ARE DEAD! THEY ARE GONE! We didn't do anything about them because we were capable of nothing, especially for someone who was a target of the Rohas!" Ramaiya replied.

"What if everyone says we aren't capable of doing anything and continues to live as

they are, would we ever be happy? With our basic rights and freedom crushed?"

"You are out of your mind! You want to stand up against the Rohas? You will get everyone of us killed! You are going to get married soon, just get settled, have kids, live the way you are, you don't need to change anything!" Ramaiya said.

"I have made up my mind, and I won't stop now!" I replied.

"Great then, go ahead, become a revolutionary, and do whatever the fuck you want to do, only if you want us to suffer! Just get one thing in mind, if you choose that path, you will be dead for us, forever!" Ramaiya reacted.

Sashi sat there trying to grasp everything and left with Ramaiya, he was shocked. I don't know what two strangers did to me but now I wanted justice for them, for every innocent out there, and I wanted a better world for the next generations! I sat besides the kids as they we turned into soft ashes, the next morning I decided to act on my words; I know exactly what I want to do!
