Fantasy GENDER ROLE REVERSAL STORIES
#5
Shalu thought how long it has been both are together. He clearly vividly remember every days he spent with Bipasha. Bipasha has been a workaholic from begining. No one could deny that, she was even a girl she has forgotten, no girl like attitude, her hair cut short, wears cargo pant 8 pocket shirt with journalist bag, one bottle of old monk, two packets of marlboro black cigarette, one lighter, one pocket swiss knife, one semi automatic 10 mm glock fully loaded and locked, two magazines of bullet for glock, 2 pencil, sharpener, eraser, 5 types of pen, one dairy, two small notepads, 5 camera rolls, one photographic camera of high resolution and video facilities were must in Bipasha’s pockets. These were necessary instruments. In her bag she carried petrol, some bike repairing essential tools including wrench, spanner, one bike battery, mobil, screwdiver set, hammer and spare wheel as stephene tied to backhand holder of bike, her bike is most of her trusted friend, it has been her companion in world wide be it Iraq, Afghanisthan, Pakistan, Kuwait, South America, Bosnia, North east India. It was royal enfield
Constellation 700 cc twin 1958-1963 twin carbs for 1960 to 62; 40 bhp to make it more reliable.

Unique scissor-action clutch operation. For 1961 & 62 a "bathtub" model with a unique fiberglass rear end. It is still a beauty, Bipasha modified it to her choice, she was 1st woman to purchase this bike, so company made it more beautiful, chrome plated silver colour with twin headlight, seats comfortable with front and rear seats separated like Bajaj scooter seats, alloy wheels, oil cooled, twin spark, top speed 220 km/ hr at par with contemporary racing bikes, smooth ride is ensured. As per Shalu knowledge when he accompanied Bipasha as her assistant the bike never broke down, why not it is well maintained oiled cleaned by Bipasha everyday, she loves the bike as her own daughter and bike also obliged being a dutiful daughter never disappointing Bipasha. Bike has made a road run of 5 lakh km and still counting. Till now 700 cc bike from royal enfield is being stopped as for current date 500 cc maximum available. Actually Shalu has no idea what these technical specifications mean, he studied manual of this bike repeatedly when he was accompanying Bipasha. He was afraid of speed, never tried to ride scooty or bike.
Normally a girl carries her vanity having all make up kits, but this girl is different hard detrmined. She did not want to take lofty interview of celebrities, write TV gossips, movies review. She is a daredevil on a devil bike, a woman do not fear about anything does not give damn to anything.

She wants to show
world true hard picture most remote places of this world war torn, poverty striken, civil war conflicts. In India she has travelled with Shalu, Shalu 1st time saw what is India from city to slum, urban to dense forest, pristine nature, waterfalls, streams, rivers, sea, beaches, temples. Shalu has visited all states on bike of woman who was boss of his in his work, he holds waist of Bipasha on bike, how could he have imagined the woman riding royal enfield will ride his personal life, her waist will be relaced by strong hands which he will hold for security, love, prestige, respect, pleasure for rest of his life.


Main objective of Bipasha was to keep focus on limelight of women empowerment on her article, she covers story of worth inspiration of women. Shalu observed Bipasha interacts every girl woman on her short stays in villages towns cities as far as possible. They get well accomodation foods on some well wishers house.Bipasha recruited one girl/ woman as her informer from each village she has stayed, trained them on information communication. Shalu role was very limited, he was only camera operator that too in still video mode during interview. He slowly took interest in taking care of each small needs of Bipasha like check her personal items well kept arranged. Bipasha was happy in his behaviour, she had no such physical attraction for him initially, even she had she kept silent or so showed no intention. Bipasha never took any extra clothes, whenever required she gets nude take bath in river or pond in night. She wears same cloth for 7 days at stretch or more. She was a chain smoker, her lips were dark black and dry. Shalu initially did not like it, he did not want to talk directly about his dislikes, instead he used soft power. Shalu carries a vanity and small backpack on his bike travel with Bipasha.


On his vanity he has make up items, on his bag he takes salwar punjabi, bra , panty, toothbrush, paste soap, towel. He was pretty organized. It was his 1st long bike ride with Bipasha from Mumbai to Thingchu village in Manipur, 2700 km bike ride. Bipasha got information that this village has 100 % literacy, sanitation and completely stopped insurgency effect and illegal sale of narcotics on that route, all thanks to Rani Kittu Gudwani, 1st elected woman sarpanch after implementation of Panchayati Raj system. Villagers are very happy and prosperous, now very rich. From the letter what Bipasha knew was elaborate information, Bipasha inspired Rani Kittu take leadership, there will be a ceremony of women accession which Bipasha was invited as chief guest to attend. Rani trained village girls as informers of insurgency and she passed these information to indian armed forces so they were 100 % successful in neutralizing insurgency. With 200 failed insurgency killing 300 of armed terrorists, they decided to surrender, peace came to region but drugs menace was still high as it was beyond purview of armed forces. So Rani got her 500 village girls and women trained in close combat as well as modern weaponry. Now girls and women scouted area wearing saree with combat boots with AK47 in hand in time bound manner. They formed village security force, knew about hilly terrains very well. In few skirmishes girls were successful in taking down
20 gangs of 3 cartels including leaders. They confiscated whooping 3000crore from cartel base. Each girl and women received 1 crore each, rest 2500 crore invested to build roads, future education of girls, one hospital, water and solar power installments, forest produce process, establish businesses. Now each
girl above aged 13 has 3 bikes one racer bike, one cruiser and one light. Women are leading business, they own it. Now ceremony of women accession to be held to formalize role and power of women, they are organising a nice banquet, in this ceremony women will take title of their mothers, men will take their surnames. Village gramsabha will have all girls aged 13, men and boys will look after house, they will surrender their rights of land ownership and business and property. They will swear they will take care of their wives dutifully, their ownership will lie on hands of their mothers before marriage, wives after marriage, daughters in old age. For this Bipasha will be chief guest.
Bipasha getting this as usual rushed to her Bike, Shalu requested to accompany her. Bispasha was reluctant as it was a long distance , but Shalu promised he will not make any complaint for long distance, rather she will enjoy it. Shalu prepared for 2 hours in packing, it was night Bipasha started her journey. She will take a short route as possible, inspecting deeply in map, she took pen marking it carefully, she decided she will ride through forest rich region, route is generally safe as no any bad news happened in thiese region, rather Mumbai is quite dangerous in daylight be it murder, bang or accident. From mumbai she will ride to Gadchiroli, then to border hilly area to sukna, sukna to jharkhand forests, then jangalmahal through entering westbengal chaubish pragana and at jalpaigudi she will turn to assam crossing it across she will enter Manipur. She analysed her plan again anyhow it will take 2 days for her solo trip, as Shalu with her it will take 4 days, not an issue as she still has 7 days to attend the ceremony. Why not enjoy short stays on route, strengthen her woman network of communication.
