Fervor Regained
Chapter 1. Mater Dolorosa. (#1)
The dark monsoon clouds were jostling and rumbling overhead. The sky was gloom
since morning. Cold moist winds were whistling all around. The weather was heavy
with each passing second. The shower was eminent but probably waiting for some
beckon for the torrential downpour.
It was last period and Ambalika sat absent minded in the class. She was chewing the
back of the pen between her pearl studded rows and was looking blankly outside
the window. Few crows sat on the shade of an old building nearby. Professor was
teaching inorganic chemistry but not a single word entered her in her brain. The
humid air beckoned her with open arms. She should be happy but she was lost
somewhere. The dark clouds reminded her beloved mother who left for heavenly
abode few years back.
“Amba, what happened?” Piyali, her bosom friend, nudged her and asked.
Ambalika wiped the corner of her eye looked vaguely at Piyali. She gave a painful
smile. Piyali fathomed the pains of Ambalika. She was there on that day, when she
lost her mother. She fathomed the disturbance of her soul.
“Nothing.” answered Ambalika with a sleek smile, “I am doing fine.”
Piyali knew that her friend was not fine. Few years after Ambalika’s mother passed
away, her father married a much younger lady. She bore the thought that her
stepmother took away her father. With each passing day, Ambalika wandered away
from her father. Gradually a huge wall came between father and daughter. Her
father was a renowned cardiologist. He wanted his daughter to be a doctor.
Nevertheless, Ambalika was furious when her father remarried. Submerged in angst
and pain, intentionally she did not clear the medical entrance exams. She took
chemistry honours. Her father was furious but her stepmother persuaded her
father. That day, for a moment she expressed her gratitude to her stepmother. She
felt all alone in that huge palatial building. He father was always busy in his
profession and she could not stand her stepmother. One day she tried to commit
suicide but a faint babble restrained her from committing that sin. The babble of a
new sapling; her toddler brother. She embraced that cub with all her might and
solace returned in her bereaved heart.
