Romance The End of Restless Sleep- By Pinuram

She entered with two cups and handed me one. Then she asked, “Since we are friends

now, can I ask you a personal question?” I answered, “Yeah sure.” She asked me, “Has
anything happened between you and Anoushka?”

I felt that I should tell her the truth, “Actually, her father. He is against the relation.
Caste and creed created a huge difference and I had no family for my support. He tried
to persuade Titli at first but she was adamant on her stand. They had a fight and he had
a heart attack. I took him to hospital even. I had to retrace back after hearing her
mother’s plea.” I exhaled deeply, “Titli has been sent away. I don’t know where but I
think she has been sent to Delhi. Her mother did mention once that she would be sent
to Delhi.”

Nilanjana ma’am asked me, “When did all these happened? What are you going to do
now?”

I answered her, “All this happened last week. I am searching for a job in Delhi. I will go
there and search for her. I am optimist. I have not lost my hope yet. Just waiting for the
opportune moment to talk to her parents again and persuade them. Let us see as what
happens.”

She shook her head, “You want me to talk to them?”

I answered her, “No ma’am, I think the iron is still hot. It won’t be a wise step to strike
now as splinters can fly at any direction. Don’t worry about me, I am fine.”

She said to me. “Why don’t you spend this weekend with us?”

I assured her, “I will try, but I promise to spend my Durga Puja with you all.”

Nilanjana Ma’am returned to Dhanbad the next day. I promised her that I would visit
them during the coming puja vacation.

My father and I spoke on phone and the mutual differences were got cleared to much
extent. One phone call from Titli to Nilanjana Ma’am sorted a decade long cold war
between us. What she told and how she managed, I did not know. I could not even
thank my damsel for that.
