Why???

Sudeep’s post reminded me the following incidence which happened some days back.

I and MN are very good friends. Some days back we went out for shopping together. After spending more than two hours in shopping and other stuff we were on our way back to the home. It was almost 9.15 pm. While saying byes n all and moving off, one lady came, she called MN, and said “What is this, what are you doing here?” in a loud and a commanding voice! The way MN’s face changed I came to know something is wrong here. We were standing in the middle of the road, so I just asked the lady to go behind to avoid any kind of accident. The lady said, “You just shut up”, and suddenly hit on my head!!! What the heck??? I am standing in the middle of the road, don’t know when which car will hit me, and plus one lady is hitting me for no reason! I was completely annoyed with the shock and pushed her back. She started shouting at me and told me to go away. She holded MN’s hand and was forcing her to come with her. Suddenly I remember who that lady is n now I can not leave MN alone with her for anything!!!

In to the flashback:

MN met one guy RJ before some years. Eventually fall in love with each other. Everything was fine with the guy apart from she never met his family. They were seeing each other for almost one and half years. When the time came to disclose it to MN’s family and talk with them about the marriage thing, suddenly the guy started giving some excuses. Telling something that he has got some problem in the family n all rubbish thing. As MN is a very good friend of mine, I knew everything what is going on in her life. After seeing the things the alarm started ringing in my head that there is something wrong here. I kept on telling MN to confirm the things with his parents and all.. but she didn’t get any chance. One day unfortunately (?) RJ had forgotten his mobile at home. And guess what... RJ’s wife answered MN’s phone call!!! Wife?????? Where the hell she came from?

No need to tell what happened next. RJ had completely fooled MN. I told MN to inform about the things to his wife about what her husband was doing behind her back! But MN’s over-nice nature refused to do that. All crying... My friend took two years to come out of that. In between I just came to know that RJ’s wife got to know about MN and RJ. I was not aware about what happened next! But for me the topic was closed. I didn’t want to remind anything to MN. I had seen the pain she took to come out of everything.

The lady we met on the road was RJ’s wife. She saw MN and thought that she came to meet RJ there! Don’t know what made her think that. She was shouting like anything. MN is a kind of person who will never fight with anyone. But I am not like that. I believe if someone is abusing you for no reason you should fight back for that!!! And as MN is my friend, I thought it’s my responsibility to protect her. (Afterwords many of my other friends thought that I should have left the place immediately instead of acting over smart and poking my nose in between. But how can I leave my friend like that? I mean it would have been so wrong. I would never have been able to forgive myself in future for doing this. I did what I felt right at that time.)

I tried to explain her that MN was with me for past two hours, and she should let us go home because it was almost 10pm. But she was not listening to anything. To add on she called her brother, after that her dad and uncle. Her dad was complete drunk and was using such a bad language on the road. I can’t even tell. Her uncle was looking quite sensible (bad amongst worst). After having a lot of argument with him, I managed to convince him to let MN go home and solve the issue with her family.

I dropped MN at her place, explained her parents whatever has happened that day. I came to know that this has happened before also. I was completely shocked.

Anyways we are not concerned what happened after that. But if we see the things completely, we will come to know that the major mistake was of RJ - the guy. But then why MN was harassed for that? I agree she didn’t inquire properly about the guy at first, but then she trusted him. This thing never came in her mind. The guy was so skilful that he could manage to fake her! But then when his wife came to know about this entire why she cursed my friend instead of her own husband? Only because he is her husband? I mean, if she would have been at MN’s place how she would have felt? She should think as a woman and not as a wife. If one woman can not keep the dignity of other woman then... I don’t know what to say on this. But we are in to the 21^st century. People should keep their eyes open. Why wife should take the side of her husband all the time even if he is wrong? That man, RJ has spoiled the life of both the women, he has insulted them, and still he is getting all the protection from everyone. And MN is suffering in her life. Why???
