The past breeze

Though she remained silent she thought of the incidents that happened before....It was a normal day there in the village. As usual Hasi completed her petty chores in her home and was getting ready for school. Hasi's father, a middle aged person , came home and said"From today you'll not be going to school. I've got a proposal for you and you'll be getting married in a month from now...",...so he said and went away. She was just 16 years old then. She knew she'll be facing this situation and she was counting the days and lo! here was the day. Naturally she felt like crying and went to her mother....who was bedridden because of stomach ulcer. Hasi cried and cried but she can do nothing...she thought...why is this happening to her. She looked at her mother. Hasini clearly understood her mothers feelings though she doesn't say anything. She loved her mother very much. She knew the way her mother protected and defended her till today cos all her friends got married at an young ge but she was not just because of her mother. But now nobody can do anyhing. Nothing reached her mind...what can she do now. She again looked at her mother. This time she understood what her mother was trying to say....She decided...'yes, i should go away from here...from this hell...this insane persons...i should study...i cannot leave my life another insane and make my mother unhappy. It's better to be far away and make her feel satisfied that i'm alive,'....Thus she decided and set out. she looked one last look at her mother and devised a plan. That was a very cold night. The village was very quiet and Then hasi got up. She ran as fast as she could to the nearby forest. Imagine a 16 yr old girl in a forest alone at a dreary night. But she has to. She already knew where to go. She got all the information about the same christian missionary in their village which was present in the city. She was standing at the bus stop. She suddenly saw some figure nearing her. She was panic stricken...It neared her more and it was near a touchable position. It was none but her close friend Rinku....She also wanted to run along with Hasini. Both of them felt safe and happy for their future. Bus came and they sat side by side. The bus only went a few yards when the bus was stopped....Rinku who was by the window...peeped out...She looked a group of men and among them her father. She didn't want to go but if she doesn't then they'll find both of them. She acted and decided fast. She stood up..Hasi looked at her"Good bye, hasi...take care of yourself and never come back here again. Our lives have been toiled and tortured...if at all you come back...i'll not be there to see cos i can't live here as a slave....Good bye forever dear..." She went away without even looking back at Hasi and the bus moved on. She can hear her cries...but the bus moved. After that Hasi never got any information about her village and now after 3 long years she's going there....on a mission which nobody knows....
