Tear jerking Story based on true incidents
It was lunch break. We were gossiping in college campus.
Unexpectedly my junior, Neena came and became motionless. Since she was very
much attached to our group so whenever she had any problem whether it is
related to academic course or something personal, she always used to take
advice from us. We asked her “what the matter was. Why are you looking so
depressed?” But she couldn’t explain her sorrow at that moment. After a while,
we were back to our classroom as tutorials were about to start. Neena was a student
of electronic engineering so she returned to her department.
After few days, we met her and again, she was looking very
upset. She just gave a fake smile and went to attend the classes. That caused
us to be worried about her. After my classes were over; I gave a ring to her.
She picked up the call. I asked, “Is there something serious going on in your
life”? She started crying and somehow she told, yes, “I am not in a better
shape these days. I have an affair with Zezzy, my college mate. But our families
have cultural differences. I talked to my parents but they didn’t allow me to
marry with him. Zezzy didn’t yet talk to his parents but he is afraid as his
family will also have same opinion. I can’t breathe without Zezzy. He
understands my silence, my troubles”. And she again started howling. “First of
all, you introduce Zezzy to me. Only after that we all will try to resolve the
issue. I am also ready to talk to your family in this regard”? I said. She
thanked me for having concerned about her.
When our IVth semester’s final examinations were completed,
we organized a river bank party. Neena and Zezzy also joined us. We enjoyed the
party and came closer to Zezzy. He was best guitarist and played a touchy song
in the party. We all appreciated his talent and asked to continue it. Next day
we all left for our homes. There was a semester break of 15days. Neena was
residing near my town so she accompanied with me. On the way, she told me,
“Zezzy will prove to be best husband. My parents must have to agree with our
union”. I assured her that parents always think for the benefit for their
children but you must not go against your parents because their blessings are
highly important for happy married life.
After vacation, we all came back to college. The next
semester was very hectic so we all were busy in preparing files, attending
seminars and giving presentation. Neena was still upset and her performance was
decreasing day by day. I talked to her 2-3 times a week but she never responded
in positive manner. After few weeks,
suddenly Neena rang me on my cell and informed me that she and Zezzy were going
to a nearby hill station and they will resolve the marriage problem. I was
quite happy that both had nicely compromised with the situation.
A day after, we stunned to hear the heartbreaking news.
Neena had consumed potassium cyanide and she was no more. Her body was found in
river bank. But Zezzy was missing. After that police was involved in this case
to find out the cause of suicide. They found suicide note in Neena’s room. In
suicide note she mentioned that “she will be responsible for her death. As our
cultural differences are barrier to our marriage therefore I am leaving my body
and our sole will unite in Heaven. We are consuming potassium cyanide with our
choice”. Police quickly understood that Zezzy instigated her to commit suicide
and he must be alive. They started search operation but could not trace him.
After a decade, Neena’s parents still are hoping for justice from police for
their daughter. That is hard truth. It was a planned murder. My daughter was
very courageous and ambitious, they said.
Writer’s guidance: Such incidents frequently happen in our
surroundings. We all must educate our teens about male- female relationship
without any hesitation. When we behave like a friend, they will share their
thoughts. And we can reduce such incidence.
