The dazzling sunlight which scorched her face made her wake up.
At first she couldn’t apprehend where she was and then she realized that she had probably dozed off on the swing itself after Shravan left last night.

She got up quickly and hurried towards her home.
As soon as she stepped at the threshold, she looked around holding her breath.
The trail was clear.
She ran quickly towards her room and banged the door shut in fear of being caught by someone and being enquired about what she was doing outside the house early in the morning.

She sat on her bed and sighed deeply.
“Thank God everyone is still asleep. I could have got caught !! What shall I do now ? Shall I go out for work ? Will Mamiji allow me ? Oh God what to do ?” she fidgeted at her place thinking.

Just then her phone rang.
It was a call from one of the workers of her tiffin service.

“Sumo what I’m hearing about u ???” roared Gunjan, the tiffin service worker.

“Arrgh….what…what have u heard ??” replied Sumo, being totally startled at her question.

“Some intensely non-sense rumors !!! Can’t tell u on phone. And ur marriage has been cancelled ?? What is happening Sumo ?”

“Which news channel gave u such latest breaking report ?” asked Sumo surprisingly.

“ Anita, our sweeper, told me when she came to work today. She works in your home too.”

“Ahhh….it has been already spread so much !!!” she spoke in despair “How many people has been already informed of my marriage cancelation by this woman !!”

“I don’t know dear, but I fear, many. She came to your engagement yesterday so she learned the news.”

“These irritating people !!! Anyways, I called the marriage off myself, knowing that the guy was not apt. I’m coming within half an hour……”

“What, you r coming ???”

“Yeah…why ??”

“Sumo this Anita works in many homes in your locality. Are u ready for the questionnaire u’ll be facing while stepping out of ur home ?”

Sumo couldn’t reply to her question as it was interrupted by a rattling knock at her door.

She cut the call and opened the door.
It was Mamiji.

“You didn’t eat anything yesterday, come and have ur breakfast.” insisted Mamiji in a deliberate harsh tone.

Suman peeped outside to find everyone already at the dining table.
“Coming.” She replied softly.
She changed her dress quickly and joined everyone at the table.

The ambience was totally explosive.
Everyone ate silently without a word.

Suman felt rather uneasy.
Whatever encouragement she got from Shravan last night again dissolved into the fear of facing her family.

She finished her supper quickly and gaining some dare & announced,
“I’m going out for work.”
The sentence immediately made the bomb-like people explode.
“What u r going out ?” scorned Mamiji.
“I don’t want u to step outside the house for at least a month Suman. Let this thing hush up. Then u’ll join ur whatsoever work !!” declared Mamaji.

Suman was unable to protest. She was left speechless at her family’s order.

“But….” she began, but was immediately stopped by Mamiji’s snapping voice.
“No means no.”

“Let her go out.” shouted Nanu at last.

“She’s not a child who needs to be safe guarded. Let the whole world tell whatever they feel like. It doesn’t mean that we’ll pay attention to whatever crap they tell. We know the truth, don’t we ? Then where is the problem. Life is like a river. Whatever obstacle there be, the river always flows on with its current overcoming it, so should life.”

“Suman, you will go out. I have every faith in u. I know my child can do everything she aspires for. It was my fault; I should have surveyed more before accepting this marriage. But better late than never. I’m happy that it’s called off. We’ll find much better fiancé for u.”

A broad smile appeared on Sumo’s face. She quickly went and took his blessings and hurried out of the house ignoring her uncle and aunt’s ifs and buts.

She drove at full speed so that she didn’t have to face some acquainted & curious neighbours on the way.

Arriving at the destination she narrated the whole matter to her workers and even told the truth so that they don’t loiter around the crappy story made by Aditya in the city. Though, she knew her workers are trustworthy.

She didn’t behave even a bit tensed or depressed of yesterday’s incidents. She cheerfully carried on her work in PCT without a thought. Probably speaking out to Shravan had helped her a lot to regain her confidence.

After completing her work, she again boarded the car.

But before she could start the engine another car parked in front of hers, blocking the way.
She barged out angrily and came near to the driver’s seat hurling abuses.
To her surprise it was Shravan.

“You ??”

Shravan was in splits !!

“I wanted to know how fast u lose ur cool. That’s why I didn’t move.” He said chuckling.

Suman frowned at him menacingly.
Shravan again started laughing seeing her face.

“Finished with ur laughing ? Now remove ur car out of my way !!!”
“No madam, this is just the starting of the laughter. I know ur mood must be still off. So I’ve called a day off from my office to cheer u up !! Let’s go on a long drive.”

“No Shravan….”, she said nodding her head.
“See when u called me yesterday, I came immediately without any denial. So can’t u do just this little bit for me ? Please.” he pouted adorably pleading.

Suman smiled widely at his antics.

“Okay let’s go. But where r we going ??” she asked getting inside his car.
“Just wait and watch.” he replied.
