Bells of Shiv ji temple rings. Temple is located in the lonely hills of Ghorakpur.

It is the oldest temple but a busiest one in that city.

People of that city often visits the temple. You can hear the sounds of chanting there everytime.

However, the temple is busy in mornings no one is allowed to go inside that temple after 6 pm.

Guru ji, pandit of temple is taking care of that temple since his childhood. He knows knook and corner of that temple. He even knows all the information that are buried inside that temple.

"May I come in, guru ji? Everyone went out?" A voice from the entrance of the temple.

It's 6 pm.

Guruji: Hn, Sumathi. You can.

Sumathi entered the temple with puja plate in her hands.

She does Puja to shiv ji idol, later took blessings from Guru ji too.

Sumathi smiled at Guruji and was about to move.

Guruji: One second!

She stopped walking.

Guruji: Sumathi, it's been 19 years. You came here when you was pregnant. But you are not saying the reasons still.

Sumathi took a deep breathe.

Guruji: Why you are not coming here in mornings? Why you don't want any people to be here during your puja?

Sumathi: Guruji, you are right. It's been 19 years. And I never told you the reasons. Let it be like this itself. Sometimes it's better to stay still without knowing anything.

She gave a smile and moved on.

Guruji nods no and continued his work.

Sumathi is driving her scooter, someone is calling her continuously. To attend it she stopped the scooter aside and took her phone out.

Sumathi: Jaan, I am coming soon. Please wait for some more minutes.

"Maa, you went out its fine. But why you locked the door from outside? I told you many times na maa. Don't close the door from outside while you are going out. But you are not listening to me" A sweet voice is just trying to shout harshly to her mom.

Sumathi: Pranavi, you told me many times not to lock the door. I remember it.  But you should remember one thing everytime, your safety is the most important thing to me in this world.

"But maa, I am not a small kid. I am 19 years old". Replied the voice.

Sumathi cuts the call and continues to drive. She reaches her house after few minutes.

She opens the lock of her house. But it is closed inside.

Sumathi: Pranavi.... Pranavi.....

Door opens.

A beautiful girl, who is just a mirror of angel stands there.

Sumathi gets inside and locks the door immediately.

Sumati: Bondita, you had something?

Bondita: Maa, why you are behaving like this? What is your problem maa? Please tell to me now atleast. I am asking you this since my childhood.

Sumathi: Stop overthinking, meri jaan. Come let me cook your favourite dish.

She gets inside kitchen.

Bondita: Outside the house "Pranavi", inside the house "Bondita". Who am I maa? Why you are using two names?

Sumathi: Bondita, some questions can't be explained. Everything has its time. When time comes you will come to know everything.

Bondita: What time? When it will come?

Sumathi burst out in fake laugh.

Bondita: Maa?

Sumathi: Oh my cute girl, how many times i have told you about your two names? Pranavi is given in your school certificate because of numerology. And I wanted to call you as Bondita when you was born. That's why I am using two names. And I have told you this many times but you are asking this again and again. Go, bring some fruits that are in dinning table.

Bondita moves on.

Sumathi looks at Bondita with scared face.

Sumathi thinks: How will I explain you Bondita? How will I make you understand? I know I am rude to you but everything is just for your safety. You should not get into the hands of that cruel people. I will not allow that to happen.

She nods no by looking at Bondita in mirror with a scared face.

It's night 10 pm. Sumati and Bondita are on bed after having their dinner.

Bondita: Maa, bed time stories please.

Sumathi: Just before few hours you was arguing with me that you are no more a kid. But now you are asking for stories to sleep?

Bondita: Maa, hn. I am not a kid in this society. But i will be always your kid inside the house na.

Sumathi smiled and starts to say a story. After few minutes, Bondita slept.

Sumathi assures whether Bondita was slept. After confirming it, Sumati without making any noise got up from the bed and came outside with her phone.

She dials a number.

Tring... Tring... Tring...

Hello! A manly voice came via phone.

Sumathi: She slept. We don't have time. She'll turn 25 soon. Please arrange a groom for her.

"She is just 19 years. And there are 5 more years for her to turn 25". Why you are scared now itself Masi?" that voice asked.

Sumathi: Chandrachur??

Chandra: Oh no, you found me.

Sumathi: What you are doing with your baba's phone?

Chandra: Masi, he is sleeping.

Sumathi: Chandra, ufff.... Ok, you heard it right. Inform this to your baba.

Chandra: Masi, you heard it right? Bondita is just 19. No one will come forward to marry her now.

Sumathi: But Chandra, you know na. How much is it important to make her married before 25.

Chandra: Masi, we are in Ghorakpur. Stop fearing of those people. It's been 20 years but you are still scared of them. No one will come here. In fact they would have forgot about us. And please, don't disturb us in this night. Good night Masi.

He cuts the call.

Sumathi thinks: You don't know about them Chandrachur. They are very cruel. No matter how far from them we are, for sure they will come for Bondita at correct time. I thinks it's waste of time to seek your helps, I will find a groom for her soon.

She wipes her sweaty face and went to bed.

~It's morning~

Bondita is doing puja. Sumathi packs lunch for her.

Bondita, in mid of puja sniffs food's smell.

Bondita: Om Poori Namaha! Om channa namaha!

Sumathi: Bondita, concentrate in puja.

Bondita: Yes, maa my mind is in puja only.

Sumathi: Really? Is there poori, channa in mantras?

Bondita tucks out her tongue with one eye closed.

Sumathi: Complete the puja and come soon for breakfast.

After breakfast, both gets onto the scooter. Sumathi drives it.

People in the street looks at them weirdly.

Bondita: Maa, please. I beg you. Leave me in the corner of that road. I'll get inside my college by myself. You don't need to come.

Sumathi: Pranavi!

Bondita: Maa, have you seen any of my college mates coming with their parents to college? My college has 30 buses and in that 2 buses crosses our street daily. You had paid my bus fee too but we are going in scooter daily.

Sumathi: Bus is not as safe as your mom.

Bondita: Maa... Please, everyone are mocking me. Please. Leave me in corner of that road. Only 10 - 20 steps from there to my college, in that small distance nothing will happen to me.

Bondita keeps on shaking the scooter asking Sumathi to stop her in corner of the road.

Sumathi stops it as per Bondita's adamant.

Bondita: Thank you lovely maa.

She happily gets down from the scooter and walks towards her college.

But Sumati stayed there to confirm whether she reaches college safely.

What will happen next?

Why this much concern for Bondita? Why this much security for her? About whom Sumathi is afraid? Why she wants Bondita to get married before 25?

To know about all these things, just stay tuned!❤️

Hope you will like this new concept!
