CHAPTER 12
263 Words
In the e.v.s lesson, we were taught how the animals adapt themselves to their surroundings for their survival. I think that I will also have to adapt suitably so that I will experience least pain and I think that I should cooperate with Shahid so that he will leave me alone. Now, I have even promised him that he can have him whenever he wants and to say that I am afraid of its consequences would be an understatement.
I also have grown quite fond of Shahid's parents, Shad Khan and Afreen Khan. Shahid's mother, Afreen (meaning most beautiful), is really gorgeous. Shahid's parents asked me to call them Ammi and abbu like Shahid did and I accepted that. I slowly became acquainted with them and I forgot that I used to be nervous around them. They tell me how much they wanted a daughter and how I completed that wish. I think they are the only oasis in this desert of hatred.
I was surprised at my adaptation. Shahid maintained his distance from me, despite that promise and I couldn't be more grateful. I always think what Gaurav must be doing. Will he complain to the police? Will he bring help? If Shahid tackles the police, which I know he will definitely do, I know that this time he will never leave Gaurav or worse, kill him. No, Gaurav shouldn't come here. I have adjusted here and I hope that Gaurav will find someone much better and much more beautiful than me... After all, he deserves someone so much better than me.
