Chapter 13: Courage flounder. (#1)
It was raining since last few days. Titli was feeling feverish so she was not attending the
college. We were in touch on phone. There was strict instruction from her side not to
call her.
That night she called after dinner. It was earlier than usual. “Hello what are you doing?
Missing me?”
I mocked her, “No madam, I am not missing you. I have a girlfriend and I am happy with
her.”
She teased me, “Ok, good. At last, I am relieved from the clutch of a mad person. Now I
can have an intelligent and loving boyfriend.”
I teased her, “Good then. Why don’t you then goto sleep dreaming of your boyfriend?”
She joked at me, “Surely I will dream of my boyfriend. What will you do?”
I laughed at her, “What can one do in this rainy night?”
Her voice was very vibrant, “Ummm... I will go out and dance in this drizzle.”
I was angry as she did not recovered fully “What? Are you mad? You have not recovered
fully.”
“Ummm..... Yes, dear. Why should I obey you? You are none to me. I am now wearing
my boyfriend’s shirt. After everyone goes to bed, I will go out to the roof and dance in
the rain.” She sounded very excited.
I exclaimed, “NO. Have you gone mad? When did you steal my shirt?”
She giggled, “Your blue striped shirt. I love that when you wear that.”
I heard someone calling her name. Her voice panicked, “My god, Dad has come. Bye.”
and snapped the phone.
My heartbeat paced up. She would be in danger. She has been caught and there would be a commotion in her house. I sat helpless, hitting the table with my fist. One wrong step made everything go haywire. Usually she calls at dead night. I could not find the
reason why she called just after dinner that night.
I kept on pacing up and down in my room smoking cigarettes one after another. I kept
on thinking as what was going on there at her house. I could not imagine of anything. It
might happen that her father hits her and she might take any wrong step. She was very
emotional person. She easily gets upset if the person she loves hurts her. I was cursing
myself along with that, that I should not have picked the phone.
