Drama

As speech therapist, serving special challenged was my greatest ambition but short fall was my greatest disability. Always been occupying how would i help these needies? Visited so many famous and old institutions but their curriculum and methods were not up to the international level.They were just grabbing the funds and lavishly spend on their leisurely life style. Meet and visit many namely organizations purposely that they would help me to establish an reliable institution for the handicapp but they didn’t trust me and I was feeling helpless. My all strenuousness  went  vain. There was a Special challenged school near my house, I tried so many times to convince the mentor to teach them but she was a very strict lady, she strictly refused to take my services. while going market ,saw the school bus of the special challenge persons overturned. All the children were badly injured, I took them out of the bus and took them to the hospital and after treatment ,i safely took them to their school. Their mentor were very obliged and she at last allowed me to take the class once in a week on Wednesday’s. Started with my class but I myself was not satisfied with my work because one day a week was not enough for two hundred students and it was difficult to give them ample time but I continued with my work.

 It was a mild weather, as approaching the  park, Lovely girl with blonde hair ,roaming ,wearing a tight jeans and jacket, puffing a cigarette and giving smile to every passers by. As usual gave a smile to me to stop. She came close to me and wink ,” let’s go “,she reckoned,” Where” ? I remarked.’. “You gave me a smile”. She began “So if anyone gives you a smile it means he is in. I snarled.She laughed wildly .”This is a smile but a dirty one “She clarified. After a small puff,looking towards me and rejoined me “if not willingly than leave it”. She hissedly turned. ”I’m not that sort of man you are thinking about” pleaded me .She came near to me and taunted” I think you are emasculated”.”Ah,you are insulting, I’m perplexed stated.Grousedly sat on a bench. “Than take my services “.shruggedly rubbing my chest. Ah,what are you doing? go and leave me alone”.I very rudely tried to get rid of her. You are hurt, ,may be I help you? She cutely expressed. Nonsense, How could you help me”?, it’s a noble cause”.Expressed slowly. “if it is a noble cause than why are you worried about”? She said very humbly. Told her about my cause but It was obvious out her reach. She was a cocottess, her way was different. She came close to me,and started rolling finger on my cheeks ”Very silky”,I didn’t like her gesture and stood up. “please don’t irritate me,go your way,people knows me here, ”Gaited boldly and said ”Why are you afraid of the people”,. Because I have some reputation in the society”.specifiedly embarked on her. .”Reputation and Society, that’s why they are not helping you in your cause, I will help you” .Express these words with a deep puff.. .In the meantime a car came near us and a man yelled “come on Rosy,hurry up,and she looked at me and said “Tomorrow meet me here again” I will be waiting “and than she sat in the car and With a big laughter car screeched up .Came back home.Deeply ashamed of myself that why I told her my cause, she is a call girl and it’s shame for me to seek her help. Didn’t go to her side. A month passed. shunned her completely from my mind.One afternoon I was waiting for a taxi somebody called me”Ah Silky,look here"Rosy was yelling like children carelessly.




.I’m looking for you for so many days, come with me,I have arranged a meeting for you”. Rosy proudly declared..”But where with whom? “Questioned hurriedly. ”Don’t ask questions,come with me.Rosy caught my hand and we sat in a taxi. Taxi took us to Vegetable Market”..When we reached a vegetable Market, people were looking at me with strange eyes.Feeling very odd. At last we stepped in a small vegetable shop. She is aunty Zari”introduced Rosy to me.She was an old lady,selling vegetable since her childhood. “Talked to you about this man ”Silky man.” What? “,I jumped. Rosy and Aunty zari laughed. “By the way what’s your name ?“asked Rosy “Robin”I told.As a vegetable seller, humble appearance ,how come she help me ? started questioning my self.” Don’t under estimate me with my appearance, I’m educated lower class, had a great desire to became philanthropist, but due to domestic reasons couldn’t continued but kept it in my mind that I would accumulate money for it.In worked hard ,selling vegetables, It took a long way,but after forty long years I have succeeded,found a trust worthy guy like you in angel's guise.” With these words aunty Zari became emotional. “In first look how you deliberate a man? Inquired politely.

“This girl Rosy has a Special knack judging person. She joily added.Rosy greatly Jeered about you and your plan, I will help you ”Aunty Zari trumpeted .”But Aunty It needs a big capital to start with .“.With concerned showing to Aunty .”Initially I would provide you Seventy to Seventy five lacs Rupees for your project.” Aunty with approved manners looked towards me ."Seventy five lacs ”It chocked me.”.yes,you don’t worry,first you make a plan we would discuss it,but there is one condition! ” What Condition”? worriedly inquired . “You have to marry Rosy ”Aunty zari very askancely looked to me .”But aunty there is a great difference in my life style and Rosie’s .It’s doesn’t seems suitable ”By standing up I bragged. "Sit down my boy,go ,think on my proposal and than came with “Yes” than it would be possible”. Aunty zari showed her will. Came back but with great dissolving, not willing to marry Rosy.It made me fully abreast that Aunty and Rosy are trapping me and how it is possible that a vegetable seller would help me with a great amount?., It’s all bluff. Many days passed by.I confined to my room except only for my class on Wednesday ,I had to go.All the day desperate and depressed thinking about all that happened.Going to class, suddenly heard somebody shouting "Silky man"but I didn’t pay heed and continued walking.Rosy came from the back and hold my hand. ”Yar,I’m dying to meet you and you are ignoring me.I have done good to you,Aunty is waiting for you but you are play delaying”. “Rosy for God sake don’t play with my sentiments, tell aunty I can’t marry you “.I Very angrily said."what,..' marriage,How does aunty think about it? She knows I want to live an independent life. Today I would talk to her, by the way Silky ,give me your cell number and address to me but don’t worry my marriage wouldn't be a hindrance in your way", . Giving her my contact numbers and address, Rosy went away. Next morning, busy in my class,suddenly heard whistling,looked around.Rosy was standing in the middle of the window, chewing roughly,looking very sexy,”oh God,why did she come here? shootly went towards her. “Why did you come here, Mentor is very strict. She would kick me out”.You go and wait in my room, I would come after the class is over" Saying this given her the key of my room. .She very carelessly took the key from me and walked away.When I reached the room,she was lying on the bed.Looking pretty.I took a pause”Ah silky,you didn’t see a girl before,you sure you are a man?. With saying this she burst in laughter. “Beg you please don’t follow me”.I implored.Why are you imploring,I have done your work”.He said it very proudly .”What work?I doubtfully asked “.Smart bucks for your plan “she said again. Her words stunned me.”Really". I jumped with joyness.She came near to me and hugged me severely and kissed me very tightly on my lips with saying “Be a man”.Together went to Aunty zari’s shop.There we discussed the whole plan .Following day I started searching land For the site . Bought land outside the city and in one year span, building erected and after completed finishing ,moved to the Premises.The Name of the institution was chosen by Rosy” "Zari Special School”. Considering my life very satisfied and successful.This institution made me boss of my own.Going from hitchhiking towards complete settled life.

Rosy  became a very good close pal of me.She helped me to established an institution for the needy, nobody would believe that Rosy played an active role building a great project .As a wise says “appearance is always deceptive”.

One day i went to the same park, where we met for the first time.There I proposed Rosy.She smiled and given me a toffee and said "Don’t eat it, keep it". The End. Silky Man.
