Chapter 3 - Chp 3 :- Aftab's Adversity (monologue) part - 1

Ever since you are born , have you regretted being born (?) . I do or in a better way to say I did UNTIL I met him, every fuckin' single day . Unlike other members of our group I wasn't born in Manpada state rather in Armani region of Hingoli state. Hingoli state compromises of 3 major region Yumedh , Jatarkatha and Armani. If I have to lay any similarity between me and Vardhan it would be only that both of our fathers were good for nothing.

I remember how drunkyard and miserable thrift he was . He tortured and beat my mother everyday . I could hear her screams and crying but she never showed her tears in front of me . She was a skilled painter . She managed our livelihood by painting on the earthern pots .

One day , when I tried to stop my father, who was attempting to throw something on her ,I remember he pushed me hardly and due to which I felt on the earthen pots that were kept in small room of house and got my head injured. At that time it was my mother who actually pushed my father for first time in her life and lifted me with her arms and came out of a house looking for the doctor. Nearest hospital was at distance of 47 km , and I still remember that not managing any money for carriage as she can't afford she carried me all along the route in her back .

She couldn't bear this scar of heart and her son was hurted . She had infinite scar all over her body but she never cared not complained anyone but this time it was clearly different. I remember and understand she was bearing this all so I get a good life but that day it was just over . She went to her brother who didn't wanted to see her at very place but still she begged him and to take her and me out of that house . She was very strong women untill today I never saw her asking for help in terms of money but first time I saw her weeping in pain in her brother's leg and how her brother was trying best to remove his legs from her Maybe intentionally or unintentionally how many times he would have kicked her .

Somehow he agreed to help us and told her to bring all the luggage and he will make our all arrangements at Manpada state and will take both of us away from this hell for eternity. Ofcourse ! This was surprising, maybe blood love after all can't be that worse .

We were all set to sail to Manpada. mother, myself and my mother's brother . I don't remember his name and luckily I don't. We all reached at Manpada leaving behind that hell of a life. After reaching Manpada the first rays of Sun that went from over us significantly gave a whole new hope of new life filled with joy , care ,peace and love .

Though I suppose this word ' Hope ' is dangerous in various extent . Our day of glory ended before even being started . My so called uncle mother's brother sold me and my mother to a rich diamond merchant of Zaveri village which is next to Ashutosh Village.

I still remember that fat person with a grey beard and that eyes which were lusting all the time . My uncle tricked us by introducing him and told he will give us alife ahead and then to completely vanish from there .It seemed we were just removed from hell and place in something more beyond that hell.

I remember one of his keepers took me away from my mother and shoved me in the nearest horseshed. To which I was afraid , terrified and perplexed . I still get goosebumps thinking of it . Well intially it was very hard surviving there but as time gradually passed I accustomed. I was given food two times and in return I have to help them in cleaning shed and other chores of that big mansion of that old pig's . Moreover, I didn't knew anything about my mother , never heard her single word but as day passed and I started growing and understanding I asked housekeeper regarding well - being of my mother . To which , he said your mother is enjoying lavish lifestyle inside maybe she will be marrying our owner ... and also she told you inform you that she want to cut all the ties with you. Ties with me ? for real like what ? Wait you liar don't you feel I will believe your lie. Don't mess with me I am small but I can still fight ... You punk if you feel lie why don't you check for yourself.

To which I decided to check her upon. I don't know anything about her whereabouts I remember how days in horseshed were so hard remembering and calling her but I guess she never heard my request neither call nor even tried to meet me ... "Why the hell I am supposed to have them as a parents".

"I will ask this straightaway to that lady" . I proclaimed.

I went in search of her seeing guards at duty I hid for a while and somehow my hand bumped at nearest almirah and something fall from it .. Till date I didn't knew what was it but it was enough for guards to look over here. I somehow tricked them but went further inside the house to a place I was never before.

In no time compared to all doors of the room . I saw the room whose door was colossal and magnificent. It took no time to understand this might be that of old fatty geezer's room.

While thinking of what to do . I suddenly got the voice of someone opening the door and I hid once again behind the back of huge flower wase which was kept adjacent to the room . I saw it was a lady who was half naked and just covered with bed sheet in her lower part moved on . It was my mother .

I ran behind her and pulled her towards me . she suddenly lost the balance and as a result her bed sheet fall down and I caught her maintaining her balance to not fall . She saw in my eyes and was confused for a while and in no time she pushed me down and hurrily picked up and covered her body with bedsheet. As far as I remember all over her body were several injury marks they seems more deepen compared to what given by my father . All I was said Mom , what happened? are you alright, why there are so much injuries all over your body ? I bombarded her with such questions though I know what might be the case that fatty pig would actually have molested and assualted her.

I asked mom is that man beating you up she didn't cared answering all she told was that it's none of your buisness . I remember she told don't you got the notice that I don't want to have relation with you. To which I shouted to her what do you think we are . Is relationship between mother and son so simple that could be broke by your mere declaration and why the hell do you want to break it ? I was always less tempered and I told something which I Shouldn't have said so your enjoying giving that men your body .

To which she slapped me and told me she is going to marry her and I must pack the bag and leave from here by not interfering about her life . I told do you want me to kill that pig to which she said," A

word more than that about my fiance and you will be finished. "

For an instance the world around me was shattered is she really the same women who carried me all the way to the hospital, who left the home for my sake . But then without interrupting her more I decided I will leave this house , this lady , this hell life once for all.

That day I packed my bags 🛍️ & with affirmation of finally to get away from this hell left that house . Housekeeper gave me a certain letter and told me to only open it once you leave this village. First I decided to hold it and then torn and throw it as my anger on my mother was at peak. Still I took it putted it in my bag and went off leaving that horseshed for rest of my life. I was thinking I had so many chances of going only reason I was here was to take my mother with me but it seems money can make anyone blind .

when I finally left the final main gate of mansion I breathed my freedom by walking two step ahead . I just turned back and I don't know why but I saw my mother at window . I couldn't see her face properly but I knew it was her . It seemed she was crying but I thought I guess it the destiny that she has choosen and I left all for once. I was wondering why no one stopped me , I asked the guard nearby Is it fine I am leaving to which he said ,"YES" and we were told we should not hold you if you wanna go by madam . To which I did responded and it seemed some huge preperation was going on so I asked him is some event gonna take place. To which he told yes it gonna be a high class meet-up at night where all wealthy family accumulates together.

I thought that maybe my that fatty will be announcing marriage with my mother . I can't stand that listening but I preferred to not interfere that lady has made lot of sacrifices for me. She deserved best life , I wasn't happy at all but I left that place for rest of my life...

I didn't had the strength I still want to talk to my mother still want to take her with me ... I was faking scanerious,but I thought only happiness I could give her as a son is to leave her life ,as she desired. Maybe this would be my wedding gift to her ... I don't know but it seemed I couldn't hold tears.

I left Zaveri village and made the biggest mistake of my life . I wonder if time machine would have been real anyday ... sigh...
