Agnibha

Agnibha was one of those persons who had a heart full of love and goodwill for the entire world. She just could not stop herself from showering her affection on every thing that came near her. She was working as a school teacher in a small town, far away from her home. She used to live in Teacher’s hostel, as both of her parents has passed away, she used to occasionally visit her home, not regularly.

One day while she was coming to the school she saw a guy in motorbike ogling her, the guy was good looking but his lose morale was vividly written on her face. The type of face which will instantly create a feeling of repulsion in your mind. When she was passing by her, he coughed like an asthmatic patient, and just according to her assumption, spitted out a mouthful of gutka.

She just ignored him and went inside the school. To her utter irritation, when she came out he was again sitting there. This thing continued for a couple of days then Agnibha told her friends about it. When one of her friends saw him she told him that he was a big shot of local ruling party, a very good guy. But Agnibha’s mind told her exactly the opposite.

Agnibha was one of those persons who are not very romantic, she was not much interested in marrying, but was not against it either. But she staunchly believed in retaining her every thing for her husband.

To her utter amusement, this guy, Partho, used to call her aunty in public, because she used to call her father dada, and yet stalk her shamelessly. All of a sudden she started to realize that some one is spreading dirty canard against her. Whenever she used to go out alone or with any one, she used to hear dirty comments, thrown at air, but even a crazy person will know that she was the target. Wherever she used to go, she used to meet strange stares. Like every one knows some thing ugly about her, which she does not knows. To her deepest shock, the persons who were mostly involved were her colleagues, to them it was a great enjoyment. Because till date, they have not been able to find out a single flaw in her nature or record book. Then she started to hear shady offers from strangers and started to lose her cool.

Finally the thing reached a height when she completely lost her earlier nature. One day when she was coming to the school that guy, Partho stopped her way with a group of his friends, he let out a volley of ugly words, and told her that he knows every thing about her, why she does not visits her own home, because they have thrown her out, as she is a call girl. And a woman of perverted nature. She slapped him right on the face, as a result a fist fight broke out, and Agnibha being the weaker person got the most. She noted with surprise that none of the onlookers came to help her, because the goons have done their home work over a long time, by ruining her reputation.

She went to the police station, where the officer wrote down her complaint but asked her very angrily why are they after her, she is not a beauty queen or millionaire, so why is she targeted, there must be some reason behind that.

When she was coming out with tears in her eyes she saw Partho and his friends entering the Police station, talking amicably with few cops.

She got her answer and left the town very next day.
