(October 2008)
Once again, Rohit & his loneliness were living together. He was scared of all kind of relationships and he started concentrating on his job and career. But somewhere inside, something was killing him slowly. He just wanted to get rid of that something, as soon as possible. He took a transfer from the job and went to his hometown. His parents were worried about his condition and they started asking him. Rohit was speechless in front of them and he also stopped going out anywhere with his friends or even alone, for that matter.
One Sunday, when he was sitting in his room and watching TV, his mother came to him and asked him about his condition. ‘When you have something inside you, you need someone to talk and to share your feelings.’ So, he told each and everything to his mother and also told them to get him married, otherwise this loneliness would not let him survive. His parents started searching a suitable match for him. They showed him the photographs of some girls, but he told them to find any good girl, which should take care of them in the coming time. Rohit was not having any hope from life and he was living in a depression. His parents fixed a meeting with a girl and her parents. Her parents had already said yes to Rohit, as a match to there daughter. At the meeting, everyone asked Rohit about his decision, without any second thought he said yes, because he just wanted to settle down in life.
Life played many games with him and now he thought to play a game with life, with that decision. He thought if the girl was good, he win the game, otherwise he was already a loser in front of life. Time moved on and he got married to that girl.
(After one year)
Now he was living life of a married man, who had a good job, 9 to 5 office schedule, beautiful wife, but that something inside somewhere was still disturbing him. He was trying his best to adjust himself with the new phase of life, but it was not going through. The understanding between them was not working; there interests were different, there way of living was different. In short, he lost the game he played with life.
