"Hello" spoke the mother. "You are the dead man's wife, right? Your husband died isn't he?" replied a rude voice from the other side of the phone "Yes, Mr. Mayor" frightened the mother "I am sorry about that but, that's not our topic. It's about Loans" The voice turned gentle, as thou it was creating more fear in her. "What do you mean?" surprised the mother. "The amount of money which your husband didn't return or pay any workers. You have to do that. It's a work on you" he warned. "WHY SHOULD I?" "Because I need it. We all, the whole town need it to run our living. Please do it". he replied in a calm voice, trying to cool down his rage. This made the Mother rage as she complained, "Before my husband's death you were after us like this. Why don't you guys do trading? There is always a solution to everything" "Nothing won't work without the money that you guys will pay." answered the man gravely, "Do it or else?" "Or else what?" roared the mother, " you cannot lay a finger
At present, it was night time, The Mayor, doctor, and some maids were in the bedroom where her Mother lying. The Doctor finished checking her and said "She has a fever. It will take three days to cure don't worry" All the maids got relax. But, the Mayor got mad and went out to the messed room. There, the police were investigating. He asked, "What has happened?" The police officer said, "Still nothing sir". A policeman came there running and said: "Sir, we found some burnt coins in the chimney". This made the Man burst into flames and he said shouting "Stop this investigation at once! Out of this house as soon as possible!" he went out. All the policemen gazed at each other perplexed. The officer suggested obeying the Mayor's order and everyone packed up their staffs and went out. The Mayor came to the doctor and saw him talking to Loathefiya. He grabbed his arms and dragged him to the wall on the left side. "Hey, hold it!" yelled the doctor but, he was beaten hard in the wall
The Mother's body was buried on the same day. News of the dead parents was spread all over the town. They were surprised but, at the same time happy too. A Hope of change was created in every civilian. The Mayor was in his house in full rage. He thought "Without even paying a fils they passed away. That idiot woman burned away all the money they had. Now what is left for the town". He jolted his hands on the table and pressed his fist tightly so that his hands began to bleed. He said clenching his teeth "If the parents haven't paid anything then the child will. She also is one of them and also is responsible for it" he quickly walked away from his office, "I was a fool who didn't say anything to them but, now I shall have no mercy on her". Meanwhile, at home, Loathefiya's small hairs were cut into short hairs. She didn't know why it was needed but, continued weeping silently. Taka came to her and said rubbing off her tears "Come on don't cry. Be brave now". She stroked her sil
The men begin hammering the walls of the house from below. They hit it from all corners and the whole walls got cracked. A last hard blow and the men ran back. The whole beautiful glorious house collapsed down, breaking every room, window door, and stairs, creating a large thud with lots of dust flying in the air. The little girl hid herself to escape the rushing dust. With the dust and dirt disappearing away when the views were clearer, Loathefiya could see nothing except piles of bricks, fallen wood, and smashed windows with doors. Once they left, she went to the destruction area where Sharp's mirror and the edge of doors were all ready to hurt, Loathefiya looked around the bricks and stones, throwing away mud with her bare soft hands. The stones and rocks were hurting her. With tears floating down her cheeks she kept scratching the hard hot piles, calling inwards, "Where are you?" and then stopped looking at the ground shocked in relief, "My..... my doll... you are here...
Loathefiya was taken secretly by Naha to her house. When she kept her down, Loathefiya caught her tightly and asked "Is anyone there?" in fear. "No, dear" she replied by stroking her head "I'm alone". She felt relaxed moving to her side. As a babysitter, Naha begins her setting without even a mean thought for this little girl. She took her along and washed her, combed her hair, wore her new dress, and new shoes, tied her hair, and creamed her face with baby lotion. She stood back and watched as the girl turned to the mirror behind her. Standing in front of her reflection, Loathefiya was surprised to see herself now and was staring at the other girl inside. The ugly dirty girl with rubbish hair was all gone with a single dress. Naha, her friend also as a side-to-be sister, sat down behind her and asked "Do you like it? You look so beautiful than before". Loathefiya said, "Thank you so much I loved it". Naha hugged her from behind and said "I used to see you suffering in the
The next morning, while Naha was preparing breakfast and Loathefiya was asleep, the bell rang.She answered it and it was her neighbor lady. The neighbor said inviting, "please come to our party tonight we invite you. It's for our son's first birthday".Naha agreed saying "I'll accept your invitation thank you" and the women went away.The moment she closed the door Loathefiya jumped down from the stairs, ran to Naha and hugged her."What happened?" she asked laughing."Good morning" Loathefiya said byraising her head.Naha carried her up on her arms and said "good morning my little girl come with me I'll clean you and then come for breakfast".She took her and readied her happily then brought her to the table.Loathefiya became enormously excited that her cheeks grew red due to seeing the table neatly decorated with food."Is t
Naha hurried home, came inside and slam locking the door. She ran upstairs to her room and opened the door. Loathefiya was playing tea party with her doll, she saw her and said happily "NAHA YOU ARE BACK!!" ran to her and hugged her.She rested her hand on the little girl's head, stroking it softly and said "come let's go to bed" she nodded smiling happily.Naha prepared herself in groom and set herself for bed. Turning offed the light, they laid together and Loathefiya requested, "tell me a story about my house" The girl nodded and began narrating sweet stories, by happing her softly.When Loathefiya felt sleepy she hugged her tight, fall asleep by whispering softly,"...Mama....".Naha smiled watching the cute little doll lying aside and then thought to herself turning sad, "it was a good timing for me to leave the party soon......or else if anyone other saw this lighted room, they could have grown sus
Naha was concerted by fear, horror she fell down hard on her knees, crying. Loathefiya held her cheeks softly and asked worried "why are you crying? Did I disturb you? I made you cry?"Naha said crying and shivering "no my dear.... (sniff)" she caught her hand and kissed it "you didn't do anything......" hugged her tightly and continued saying "you...... didn't do anything..... you didn't. You are just a child" she began to weep by choking, tears floating nonstop and held on the little girl tight. She could only say I am sorry.....I am sorry. Hundreds of words were fighting to pushed out but,were all trapped in her throat unable to even speak a single one out.Loathefiya didn't get what happened to her. Tears floating down her eyes, checks and chin, dripping on the child's face, slipping down her soft checks, the girl lifted up her small hand and could only rub them off but, more were floating on hers.Naha felt a sharp feeling appr
“It’s sad to see you go through all that...” Beth said, breaking the silence.The boy gazed back at her and nodded with a light smile.****Not everyone can feel each other’s pain.Only those who are, who have, and who have faced the same fate will understand the agony and try to resolve with them.That can be either in an irking way or a graceful way.****“But, they are an end to my sorrow,” he continued, taking the two’s attention, “After years of struggling in the dirt, surviving to eating and drinking I was finally rescued by someone.He took me into his house, cleaned me up, and offered the best he could.At first, I thought he was a pity for me and felt discomfort from him. I hate to gain mercy and pity from people around me because of my arms.But, I was wrong, he did not do all that for piety but he took me like his firm duty to be performed and did not care about any comment from me.It took me some time to adjust with him like I would scream at him or shout at him not to tou
They could not tolerate my condition. They wanted everything to be done fast and perfectly on time.I commit a lot of mistakes in their eyes. During training, I would try my best not to drop the object that had been given to me to use, or keep a strong hold on the staff while their eagle eyes would be locked at me….I could feel the vibes of the stare filled with rage, irritation, and frustration.Trying everything perfect was their first rule and I was the first one to fail it. Even if I dropped it, they would cure me and leave me alone.If I couldn’t do it or shout in agony, they would all call me useless.As I was growing, resulting in everything in failure, they decided to go through medical checks for once… but that was enough to ruin my life and turn my days into hell. When I was checked and asked for better treatment for my arms, the doctors approved no recovery and I would be like this my entire life.This was the greatest hopelessness I felt and it was the reason that I got
“There is no need for you two to speak your names. I do not wish to get to know your identities or to be shared. We shall soon depart from each other so it’s better we stay strangers.” suggested Glenn with a smile. “But, you are too friendly to be a stranger.” said Beth her true feelings, “we cannot take it this way...” The boy named Glenn chuckled and said, “Do it for me. It will be alright. And for the questions….” he sat straight answering, “your first question..what do you want? I want nothing from you two. I got along with te officer requesting him to save you two. I wanted to save you two from the hell of the street. It seems necessary cause the world does not see girls as humans anymore. They chase them like wolves. Anything would be possible against you two because you are girls The biggest example is that man who was about to kidnap you.” he was aiming at Beneatha whose eyes were dull in fear. Her sister gazed at her and asked the boy, “Are we that bad? To be a girl
"No worries" shook the boy his head as he stood up, suggesting in front of teh two sisters, "How about we wait in the restaurant for the officer to retrieve us, what do you think?" ""THE POLICEMAN! startled both sisters when Beth asked in terror, "Will he arrest us too?" "No.np. Don't worry. He still has some work to do regarding you two. ence, we should wait for him.: he cleared her and looked around, "How about we take a seat somewhere and wait until he arrives?" Both girls gazed at him when Beth again asked, "What if he can't find us? He is here for us as you told us. Will he be lost like the two of us?" The boy was surprised by this when he replied gently smiling, "No, he won't be. He knows us well. Ans to make teh matter clear he asked me to wait for him in any nearby restaurant along with you two until he is back.He has arranged the place. Come one. Let's get going shall we?" he presented his hand. Both looked at each other in worry. Without any words exchanged, both agr
“Why are you two wandering in this wide world alone?Preparing to be a feast for someone else or are you trying to act brave which does not suit you…”Smirked the man.“That doesn’t concern you…” replied the aggressive girl which he didn’t know was making a mistake.“OH! It does, concerns me, my little girl.” Smirked the stranger, “I have to make sure you did not run off on your own.It’s dangerous to be allowed outside at night you.”This terrified the two girls.Beneatha held on to her sister making herself a defense wall between her sister and the man.The stranger stepped out of the shadows with a rope in his hand.He paced towards them as he increased his steps.His ugly face was twisted into an evil smile as he got closer to the two girls.Beth lost the feelings on her feet, turning solid on her ground due to fear.She started shivering getting her eyes locked at the approaching man.Immediately, upon realizing this, Beneatha pushed her back on the girl, trying to make her run w
There is a saying that goes: {Our parents leave us early, and our guardians and spouse respond to us late but, our siblings are the only ones who stay by our side.} A statement similar to this one was displayed for the two sisters. Even though their mother had left them and gone somewhere, these two sisters were the wall and roofs remaining for each other. Thou, both were arguing among themselves however, tears, a symbol of flowing sadness, cooled down their rage of ignorance among them. As a result, making them stay as a shadow of each other. As Beneatha went on weeping, Beneatha grew surprised and said inwards, “I…. I did not know that even my brave sister could cry like that….” Her shoulders drowned as she continued, “I know she was always the bravest and the kind-hearted one to us, especially to me… She would always encourage me when I felt failure, and stay by my side to heal my wounds. She was always there to clear up my tears if someone hurt me and would always smile f
“Where do you think she must have gone?” asked Beth as she held onto her sister’s palm. “We just need to walk straight ahead. Perhaps, she might be nearby somewhere…” answered Beneatha with a smile at her sister. Her voice sounded cheering as she paced in front of her with back toward the girl. In reality, her expression was turning pale. She was shivering with every step as her heartbeat was pumping twice. Due to sped beat, she sweated buckets all over her structure. Her hand was slipping yet, she tighten her grip on her sister. She said inwards, “I need to stay calm. If I panicked, my sister would turn crazy from fear. We are both in trouble. We both are scared but, for my sister, I need to stay strong..” Under the night, in a quiet street, where the yellow street light glowed the road, the two little girls paced side by side, holding hands as their tiny feet carried them into nowhere. Fear conquered them. Hopelessness drew an endless path for their search. Worries made th
MAMA!!! MAMA! This is the word that is always running through our tongues when whenever fear captures us and we are unable to understand how to react. This word is especially running on children’s tongues. For Beth, she was nonstop whispering this word, as she kept weeping. Behind her, Beneatha could only watch her helplessness. A man asked the policeman, “Can’t we do something?”. The officer just stared as he stood in dumb. No clue as to what he should answer. Everyone could only stare at the girl, who was locked to the street light’s pole. If they tried to move her slightly, she would scream like a monster, arguing to let her go. If they tried to explain to her, she won’t listen. Not to mention, she also refused to hear her sister Everyone was puzzled on their own. Some thought of helping, finding some ideas while others simply watched. Though, it may seem that it’s not their business however a natural ratio was erupting here that was not to ignore a helpless child. Pe
“We shall take these two girls in our custody and wait for a while until someone arrives asking for these girls.” Suggested the policeman. He looked down at them with a gentle smile. But, the girls did not trust him as they grew panicked, They did understand everything that the surroundings were talking about which made them realize that someone was going to take them. When the policeman presented his hand requesting to come along. This stunned both the girls. He said, “Come with me to the police station. You shouldn’t stay here. It will get colder tonight. You two might catch a cold. Come to the police station.” “WHAT?! NO!” exclaimed Beth, “WHERE ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE US?” “Do not be afraid.” Calmed the policeman girl, using as much low voice as he can, “We can care for you two until some…...” “NO!” argued the child with him, “WE ARE NOT LONELY! WE HAVE EACH OTHER! NO NEED TO TALK TO US OR TAKE US ANYWHERE! LEAVE US ALONE!” she yelled at him at the top of her voice. “Be
