Complexion
"Ragini...i love you.Will you marry me?"
"Ranveer proposed to me showing me a diamond ring.The diamond was shining.It is just opposite to my complexion i felt.I'm dark.But the diamond which Ranveer showed me is pure white.Ranveer was fair and handsome.All the girls in the college were mad about him.But i wonder what made him fall for me.Because people found my complexion as a bad omen.I could not imagine marrying Ranveer even though i had feelings for him.ecause i did'nt want others to laugh at us.Black and white combination.So i rejected him".
"Sorry Ranveer.I can't.I'm getting married to Ambarish".
"He must have felt that i have taunted him.But he did not lose his temper.He did not bicker.But tears dwelled up in his eyes,He was estranged from me.I got married to Ambarish.He was clumsy.But i saw a life partner in him just because he is dark like me.So that he will understand my feelings.But what happened was just the opposite."
Ragini is excited to go near Ambarish.
"I'm pregnant.We are going to be parents."
"Is it true?"He asked in a touch voice.
"Yes".I shook my head.
"We don't need a baby.Have an abortion".
"What?"I muttered,because i could not believe what he said.
"Kill this creature".
Ragini is dying mentally inch by inch.
"Why?"She asked.
"Because this aby will also be dark like us.This baby will be a comic figure in the society.I don't want that to happen".
"No,i will not kill my baby".I cried loudly.
"You will".
He took her to the hospital forcefully.She howled like a wolf.She was insane.
She did not have any other option to escape from the abortion.She forgot her culture.She forgot that she is standing before her Pati Parmeshwar.She just hit him and ran away from the hospital.
"That was te end of our bond.Marriage which is supposed to be an eternal bond broke miserably.ecause i wanted my baby.Maternal feelings won over me.When i became alone surprisingly Ranveer came again with flowers and the same diamond ring".
"You did not give this diamond ring to anyone else?"I asked.
"No.It is always for you".He replied.
He kneeled down and asked in a sweet tone,
"Will you marry me?"
"But i'm pregnant.I can't have an abortion".
"Who asked you to abort your baby?It will be my baby also.I want my baby".
His response surprised me again.
"But the baby will be dark".
"So what?I love your complexion.I will be happy if our baby have your complexion".
"He surprised me again.This time i could not resist my emotions.I extended my hand with a smile.He slipped the diamond ring on my finger.
I became Ranveer's.Our baby is his darling.He doesnt care about the baby's complexion.He sees a glow in the baby's complexion".
Ragini watches the beauty of the moon while Ranveer's eyeballs are touching her face.
"Are you not seeing the moon?"
"Yes,i'm seeing my moon.You are my moon and our baby is my star".
Ranveer's eyes were full of love when he spoke that sweet sentence.Ragini's heart got filled up with happiness.
The end
