Chương 80: Diary-3

With a sigh Ronnie got back to reading. He flipped over to the next page.

Dear Nadia,

From when daddy left us, it seems like our happiness has been lost forever. Today, I went out to play with my neighbourhood friends. But their mommys suddenly came and asked them not to play with me from now on. They told that I'm a bad influence and that I shouldn't play with them.

I immediately ran back home and told mommy about it. She came and enquired them as to what was wrong in hanging around with me? They told I was a bad influence to their children and that mommy and I shouldn't stay in this house. They started abusing and humiliating us in all bad words. It hurts to write them down here too.

I didn't understand how I became a bad influence to their children all of a sudden. Those aunties would send their children to me to learn dance. And since I study well, they would even send them so that I help them in studies. They always praised me for my good manners.

But now suddenly they all have changed. Mommy was crying a lot. I'd never seen my mommy cry before. But nowadays, I hardly see her smile. She keeps crying in secret always. I hate to see mommy cry so much. Wish I could do something to make her smile.

At that time, Amar uncle came home. When he saw everything that happened with us in the garden, he began scolding those aunties. He finally warned them strictly. Nobody is supposed to hurt my sister or her daughter.

When we started walking back to our house, one aunty said, these people are so shameless. They are spoiling the sacred relationship between a brother and a sister.

Another aunty joined her. Exactly, at the outset they tell brother sister relationship but inside God knows what they do. Didn't her husband leave her and go for the same reason?

Now they're acting all innocent. Such people shouldn't stay with respected, well cultured families like ours. One more aunty said.

Amar uncle got very angry. He shouted. Enough! They all stopped talking and went back to their homes.

Mommy asked me to go to my room and play. But, she was weeping so much. I hate those aunties for hurting my mommy. I hate them all! Wish I could do something for them to stop speaking like that.

Dear God, please send daddy soon. It's only he who can bring back our happiness.

A fresh swell of rage rose through Ronnie at the society for hurting Maya. That little girl and her mother were punished emotionally every single day for no mistake of theirs.

Ronnie wished he could turn back time and go to that point and slap those women in the face. 'Well-cultured, respected families? Shows the hypocrisy of your face! My Maya and her mother had to face the brunt of this opinionated society. They never got a chance to explain themselves, to her father nor this prejudiced society!' Ronnie was almost choking on his rage.

'Well, no! Why should they even explain to such hypocrites! I can imagine how hurt Maya's mother must've been then.' Ronnie felt his heart ache for her.
