There was a glitch that is why I'm reposting.

Naina had been restless and irritable since she had heard of Vishakha's return.

Log bas dekhte hai meri ye hasi
Jiske paas ro saku aisa koi aas paas nahi

Mummy, Delhi me apne husband aur unke baccho ke saath rehti hai aur Papa... Jab mai bahut chota tha tab hi guzar gaye.

Memories of Sameer came flashing back to her. She was feeling rage rearing it's head inside her. A strong need to set the wrongs right. She wanted to do something and not being able to do anything made her grow even more restless. She knew she was on the right side. So, there was nothing to fear.

She ran to her desk and began scribbling a letter.

Vishakha ji

Waise ji kehne ka man toh aapko kar nahi raha. Apne hi bete ki shaadi me sirf khana khane aayin hain aap? Kyu? Jab Sameer aapka beta hai toh wo aapki zimmedari hai na par nahi aap toh chali gayi Delhi aish karne. Nayi family bana li aapne bina ye soche ki jo baccha peeche reh gaya  uska kya hoga?

Maafi maangiye jaakar Sameer se. Waise toh aap usko shakal dikhane layak bachi nahi hain.

Shubhchintak.

Naina re-read the cold, harsh truth in the letter and felt a sense of satisfaction running through her veins. The same satisfaction she had felt when she had decided that running away from home  was the best decision to secure her life, to keep it's reins in her hand.

Impulsiveness and recklessness were Naina's weakest point and both of them were guiding her while she made the choice to sneak out of her house full of guests, find and wake Shefali up and then drive up to the Maheshwari house where she would quietly place the letter.
