The journey & the past....
After reading the ad......Hasini decided to go to her village. Payal became tensed and called Dimple. So all them talked about it and decided to go there. As Payal has to seek permission from her dad...she asked Gowri to talk as her lecturer and thereby all of them can go. Gowri aunty said that it's not good to tell lies and so she went and asked Payal's father and explained the situation to him. "Please uncle, i need payal's help and support...the more people with me the more i can talk back and the more i'll be safe,"...He thought for sometime and agreed and said..."It's ok...but when i ak for a help...will u girls help me????",...without another thought they said yes chorously and packed things. They got into the bus at night. When they setteld they were approached by someone....it was Ajay!!!! Dimple was happy inside but showed nothing and looked as if surprised along with others.... "Hey...what are you ppl doing here??,"..."That's the question we shd ask Ajay...what are you doing in the bus???"....."I'm going to a village near Adilabad which is situated at the border of Orissa and A.p.....got to deal a case there...where are you ppl going????..its odd time...that too the trio got going....to a proposal????"....he winked at Dimple...she ignored him...But nobody answered him. He understood the situation and sat behind them....He had a file with him....He started reading it...Unexpectedly Hasini looked at it and she was shocked to see the photo of Chameli!!!!! "Its chameli rite???? What happened to her??? Why do u have that photo with you????Plz tell me...i wanna know....plz...."...He looked surprised at her but suppressed it and asked "Sorry Hasini...it's confidential...but as i said a case...this girl is missing for about three months....Nobody knew about her...but how do you know her???? Seriously, what are you girls upto.....Do you know the village???i heard that the ppl there are not humans....they do anything for money....but how come u ppl know them?????tell me girls...tell me...it may be useful for my case.." All of them looked at each others faces...Slowly hasini started.."You know the village...as you told it's situated at the border of the two states....so people there are mixed group....My grandma said that all people here were a mixture of ancient rajputras and so all of them formed a sall village for themselves. They called themselves as brahmins and lived like that. But people there have been tortured for years as low cast...and so our ancestors came to a conclusion that money is the only way to get name.....so they started earning money....but money by fair means came slow....as the land was not much fertile they didn't get that much money. How it all started nobody knew but all of them got involved in blackmarket...i hate that place....women there are supressed like anything...not a single girl was literate...but when i was 7 years old a christian missionary came to my village....they somehow convinced the people and so we girls were also made to study....but most of them were married at the age of 12 or 13....there ended their life....but....but....that day....three years ago..."...she stopped telling and closed her eyes..."What happened...tell me...i can't figure out anything..." Dimple looked at him as if to be silent. He kept silent and Hasini started to look out of the window..."How can i say what happened...how can i say that i lost my best friend for my life...."....tears rolled down her eyes....Incidents happened as if they happened just days ago....the day which changed her thinking...which made her to protest her villagers fo her education.
