" Not very spacious but both of us can live here. " Jeet said opening the door of a small rusty room.

" Hmm.." Adi take a good look of the surrounding.

" you get freshen up, meanwhile I will get us something to eat. " Jeet went away locking the door behind.

Adi kept the bagpack on the floor and sat on the bed. The small one room kitchen has filled with the necessary stuff which needs a person to survive.

The room has one single bed, one small noisy table fan, an old and creaking cupboard, bulky old television and few utensils to cook. Just like his home in his hometown.

He rested on the bed looking at the ceiling. The long train journey has drift him to sleep but mind still filled with the buried thoughts of pain,struggle and hatred.

The lonely teardrop escape from the eye flashing past memories. In the shining bright sunny day in unbearable heat a single mother with her six year old son walking on the footpath searching for a way to survive this life. The little one was hungry and crying for food. After lots of struggle they found a small cottage besides highway where workers were living. It looks more like a slum area. Years were passed and the little one has changed into a young handsome man. All these years he has seen his mother works hard for their living and he to has done few small jobs to help his mother. His mother was everything for him and he wanted to get every damn good thing for her but the cruel thing called money has never let them forget their situation.
Even after working day and night Adi is only able to fulfill their basic needs. Sushila his mother has started getting many health issues. Her condition was worsening day by day. Adi has begged for every little thing that can get him paid but all in vain. He could not accumulate enough money for his mothers treatment. The world before him shattered as he saw his mother taken the last breath. He cried his heart out. Few days passed blurry without knowing what to do. One big decision and Adi has boarded the train. He knew all his life he struggled but now he wants people to struggle to just to get his glimpse and he will do it.

" Adi..Adi.." Adi got up from the bed.
Jeet has arrived with the food parcel.

" You okay ? " Jeet said looking at Adi's pale face.

" Yeah, I am good. " Adi wipe his face with handkerchief. Both of them started eating.

" So..Did you get the information ? " Adi asked.

" Yes, She will be there at 9.30 today. "
Jeet replied.

" Hmm.." Adi thought a bit.

" Adi..be careful.. "

" Don't worry jeet, I am excited to meet and get to know her.. The night will going to be exciting. Adi smirked with a wicked smile.
