A Story By Deepak Jeswal
Episode Three
I am sure I will need to take another birth to fully comprehend the pain that Smita underwent on that rainy July afternoon. I don’t clearly recall for how long we sat in that claustrophobic room trying in vain to comfort her. She didn’t speak much, but the tears didn’t stop either. Her pretty face was smudged with the kohl streaming along with the tears. It was a Herculean task making her move from the room to the bus stop. Stripped off her dignity and having lost her peer acceptance, she eyed every stranger with dread and fear, and wondered as to how many really knew about her condition.
She took the next few days off.
