Blindfolded !!!

That moment. She saw everyone and everything. Mother, father, holy fire, flowers. Karan tied three knots with holy thread. Now, all seemed moving away from her. "Now, she belongs to our family", someone patted her. She could see her mom and dad moving away for lunch. For the first time, her mother did not call her to eat. Like a statue, she did all rituals. During her late lunch, he forced her to eat the dish that was never prepared by her mom just because she doesn't like it. That night, she wrote in her diary. "Blindfolded. Hoping I get the parental care from him and happiness ever after ".

Years rolled by.


It is their 25th wedding anniversary. Daughters hugging her. Gifts filling room. Yummy dishes. “She is the one who can understand me the best”, he was happy. “How cheerful they are!! Perfect couple”, somebody whispered in a jealous voice. This night, she wrote, “Still blindfolded. Not me. But the Society”. She slept hungry.
