I am a strange person. I'm ready to hear all you want to say if I messed up, but never ever accuse me with stuffs I didn’t do.
So the temper rose this way:
I was preparing for my pre-selection exams, so I needed to pay a visit to my chemistry tutor. I went to ask Papa for permission. Mamma was sitting there with him, and she made a comment which made my blood boil. That one comment struck me real hard.
I had to retaliate. Pops always says that offence is the best defence, and I agree.
One day, she pushed me so hard that I snapped. Told her that "I will never ever dream of becoming like you. You; who tells her daughter to be honest are always lying about things. You say dad ignores you. Pray tell me, when was the last time you’d asked him to check his blood sugar?
And most importantly, if you think that I go to my tuitions just to blab about the boys, then you’re wrong, I am not like you, neither I ever wanna be."
I had started hating her with all the hatred in my brain (heart doesn’t generate emotions). I couldn’t even tolerate being around her. For the first time, I wanted that my parents get divorced and I can just stay with my father. Words are too small to express my anger.
She was betraying me,her own daughter; she was cheating on my Papa; who got separated from his parents so that his wife could live happily. Who didn’t take up post graduation attempts because then he’ll have to leave his ACMOH’s chair and his daughter will find it very taxing while commuting from Uttarpara to Elgin road, that too at 6 in the morning.
When I am angry, I don’t need a mic. So yeah, P:ops heard the gist of it and ironically, he had some information of his own, which he kept a secret to protect me.
When I look back, I think that the scenario would have been different. Maybe we’d have managed to stop the tempest on our way.
