Vasudha always supported Falak in exams.Both were preparing for the exam diligently.after a few days,Ashutosh: Falak daughter, I want you to join me in my work after completing my studies.Falak: But papa, I was about to tell you that I am interested in pursuing law studies.Dipa: It is rightly saying that Falak, if Falak is interested in pursuing law studies, then let her study it, don't you?Ashutosh: Better than you is your friend who wants to do business like me.Falak: Yes, then take Vasudha in your business.On the other hand, Vasudha's father was given very little salary in Vasudha's house. He used to make a living by doing this. He always used to tell his wife Ramola that he had all the hopes from her daughter Vasudha.............................Everyone used to call Vasudha in college by the name of a simple girl. After growing up, Falak turned out to be overbearing.One day Vasudha and Falak are going to college by road. Then suddenly a truck was coming fast from ahead. When Vasudha saw that the truck was about to come to the fore and Falak's attention was elsewhere. Then Vasudha shouts, grabbing the hand in a hurry, dragging it towards her and turning it on the other side. But Vasudha gets a minor injury in the leg from the truck.Falak: Vasudha, did you not get hurt somewhere hard?Vasudha: Just a little leg hurt.Falak (surprised): Oh..! What is this Vasudha, blood is coming out of your feet.She started crying and told Vasudha that you risked your life for me.Falak quickly stops the taxi and takes Vasudha to the hospital.After reaching the hospital,Falak: Doctor, take a quick look at Vasudha, she is hurt in her leg by the truck.Doctor: Don't you worry. I'll see her.After some time....Falak: Doctor, he hasn't hurt much, is it?Doctor: No son there is no need to worry. It is good that the bone of the leg was not broken. Vasudha is not hurt much. I have given him a pain killer injection. I prescribe some medicines, you get the medicines.Falak: OK...thank you doctor. Doctor can I meet Vasudha?Doctor: You can meet her and take her home too.Falak (goes to the room): If something happens to you today, I can never forgive myself.Falak hugs Vasudha and starts crying.Vasudha: Oh...! Nothing has happened to me. I'm fine, don't worry.After sometime Falak takes Vasudha to her house. Seeing Vasudha, her mother gets nervous and asks Falak, what is the matter..? What happened to Vasudha?Vasudha: Nothing, mother, just an auto driver collided with the auto, then there was a slight leg injury. It was good that Falak had taken me to the doctor. Now I am completely fine.On hearing this, Falak was shocked and started thinking in her mind that why is Vasudha lying to her mother..?Falak: oh...! A....actually... Aunty....Then Vasudha grabs Falak's hand and tells Falak not to tell anything to her mother. Pank falls silent.Vasudha: What happened, mother! why are you crying Said I'm fineRamola: Nothing Vasudha! Sometimes the mind becomes depressed. I think that there is only one daughter, if something happens to you then who will see me and your father?Falak sits on the sofa next to Ramola and puts her hand on her shoulder.Falak: Auntie..don't you worry. I am also your daughter, are you not? Together we will see you.On hearing this, a glimpse of happiness starts appearing in Ramola's face.** Until Vasudha's feet were not cured, Falak always used to go to her house and Falak used to study with Vasudha in her own house. ,One day, Falak and Vasudha are watching news on TV together in Vasudha's house. Both was watching in the news that how guides in India all together dupe foreign people coming from outside.Falak: I know Vasudha, just a few years back, I had come to hear the news that, "After molesting a foreign girl in Kashi, the guide had gone missing and the police were raiding in search of her, for a few days. After that the man was finally caught."Then Vasudha's mother comes there and tells both of them...Vasudha: "That's why I say that one should not trust any person in a hurry, no matter who he is."Alright... let's eat.while eating,Vasudha: Now I can walk fine and I feel like I should go to college now.Falak: This is a very good thing, Vasudha.Vasudha: I will join college from tomorrow.After having dinner, Falak goes to her home.One day in college, Falak was saying to Vasudha,Falak: I know Vasudha, my father was telling me that after my studies, he will send me to another city to complete the law course...You will get to read the rest of the story in the next part-7.......!
