Chennai. 

Friday,

11.00 a.m.

"Who is Karishma?"

 

"My classmate"

 

"Where is she?" 

"Contact her?" 

" The number you are dialing is currently not available. Please try later".

"Go and fetch her?"

"Mam, I am Karishma"

"Who are they?"

My mother and sister.

"Where did you stay last night?"

 

"With Flora Ma'am in her hostel".

"Is it?"

"Yes, Ma'am".

"Call Flora Ma'am"?

Karishma went to find Flora

Meanwhile, Flora arrives.

"What happened? Everything is in a mess".

"Did Karishma stay with you in the hostel?"

"No Ma'am"

Meanwhile, Karishma arrives.

Karishma's mother - Shalini

Sister - Srima

"Does she loves someone?"

"No" 

"Where did she stay yesterday?"

 

"Maybe near the road"(Flora already knew Karishma's situation)

Shalini in tears "How can she stay on the road Ma'am?" 

"Don't worry she must have stayed in some of this house"

Karishma arrived... 

"Sorry ma'am for using your name

It's okay".

"Go and stay with your parents

Please, Ma'am. I won't stay with them.

Where did you stay at night?"

" I can't say it ma'am because my parents will come there."

" What happened?"

" They are punishing me. My father pulls my hair, kicks me, and beats me".

"Is there any problem? Have you committed any crime"

"No ma'am" 

"Then why did they beat you?"

"They don't like me?" 

"Why?"

"They like my sister alone".

"Did you show discrimination?"

"Yes, Ma'am".

"They always hit me. They support her".

"Is there discrimination from your childhood? "

"No ma'am".

" From when does it start?" 

"They don't want me to go for a job. When I reach home late at night due to a traffic jam, they beat me black and blue."

"Okay please stay with them everything will be alright".

" No ma'am I can't".

The Tutor talks with her separately.

"With whom do you stay?"

 

"Nivedita. My school friend. Mam don't say it to them".

" What was she doing?"

"She want to study at college. But the accident destroyed her studies".

"Okay go with your parents".

"Please ma'am. I can't. Don't compel me".

Tutor to Flora, "We must inform this to HOD"

"Okay, ma'am."

12.39 a.m.

HOD: Flora, are there any classes free?

Flora: I will check it, Ma'am.

Flora: Ma'am, II M.A. English is free.

HOD: Bring them there.

( Four Chairs, Flora, HOD, and Others)

HOD: Let me talk to Karishma.

Parents go outside.

HOD: what happened? 

Karishma: Mam, I don't want to stay with my parents.

HOD: Why?

Karishma: My father is beating me. They don't want to go for a job. I can care about myself. I don't want to be with them. 

HOD: Please stay outside. 

Looks at Flora: Call her mother and sister.

Flora: Come inside. Ma'am wants to talk with you.

 

HOD: Why did she leave the house?

 

Shalini: We never know mam.

HOD: Do you beat her?

Shalini: No Mam. I won't but her father would if she commits a mistake.

Srima: She is always back answering and never obeys. She came home late at night with her boyfriend.

HOD: What are you doing?

Srima: I am working as a Home tuition teacher.

HOD: Your mother?

Srima: Teacher.

HOD: Is this the way to treat her?

She is just 18. She is an intelligent person.

She is a sensitive girl. If you do anything against her, she will surely become arrogant.

Though she commits a mistake you should tell her about the truth in a way that could reach her. If you beat her, she will be violent.

Shalini: Is she in love? She doesn't share anything about it.

HOD: Are you against Love?

Shalini: No, Mam.

1.05. p.m.

Srima: I loved Shiva. My parents too approved of it.

HOD: Then you aren't against Love.

Shalini: Yes. Shiva is in Lucknow.

HOD: Lucknow?

Srima: He is a Punjabi Mam. We become closer through Instagram.

HOD: Oh!! I now understand the root cause of the problem. Just change yourself because you can't change her. At least you must change. She is a victim now. You can do whatever she wants, so she may change. She was hating you because you feed her Bitterness in the name of Love. If you change yourself then everything will be alright. 

To Flora: Call Karishma.

HOD: Sit. Karishma. Please go to your home.

Karishma: (Begs HOD not to do this) Please Ma'am. No need Ma'am.

HOD: Are they abusing you?

Karishma: No, Ma'am. They are killing me by comparing me with her (pointing out Srima)

HOD: As your elder daughter loved someone you don't want your other children to love anyone. That's why you are treating her worst. Karishma stay with your parents. They don't treat you as you wish. But they love you. 

Karishma: I will not go home with them.

 

HOD: Saturday and Sunday. Just stay and check whether they are good. Give them chances.

Karishma: I have been giving them so many chances.

HOD: Is it from childhood they are hating you?

Karishma: No Ma'am. Only after Srima's love was exposed.

HOD: Ohh!! This is the reason!! 

Shalini: Where did you stay yesterday?

Karishma: I won't say.

HOD: Karishma do you love any?

Karishma: No Ma'am. I will never marry an Indian. I wanna be in Korea.

HOD: Okay. Stay with your parents.

Karishma: No Ma'am. I will stay at the hostel.

HOD: You have a parent. How can you stay at a hostel?

Karishma: I don't want to stay with them. I will stay with Flora Mam.

HOD: You believe others than your parents. 

They will surely change their worse behaviour. Go with them.

Shalini: We will never do anything you don't want.

Karishma: I will go to work.

Shalini: Okay.

Karishma: I will never give you any amount.

Srima: Okay. Come let's go.

Shalini: Thank you Mam.

HOD: Okay.

May 2016

Hari was neglected at home.

He worked hard.

Struggled with love.

None to love him from the heart.

July 2021

Hari started a business. He began to grow.

Hari came across Karishma's insta id.

* Ravi she didn't reply to my messages.

* Girls are girls. They just need your money.

* I loved her. I couldn't able to eat anything.

* She will be happy. She will not remember you too. But you are depressed. If she is a good girl, she will surely come back.

* She told me that she will marry a Korean.

* Then stop running after her.

* Okay. I need to be alone.

 

* No I can't leave you alone.

* I will have six pegs. Take me to your home.

* Okay.

11.30 a. m.

Receives message from Karishma.

But six pegs destroyed the memory.

December 27 9.30 a. m.

Two notifications from Karishma.

1. Amount 1000 credited from Karishma.

2. Thank you so much for your concern. I was busy. I already told you about my cousin's wedding. That is the reason for not replying to your messages. I am sorry.

Hari smiled.

* Yes.

* Can we meet?

* Sure. Will you come to Chennai?

* Sure.

* Okay.

December 30.

11. a.m.

* Hi, Hari. 

* Hey, you look more beautiful than in the picture.

* You too. 

* What was the next plan?

* Trying to get a passport for Korea.

* Why?

* Wanna settle there. 

* Hey you are an Indian?

* For that?

* Don't you love India?

* No..

 

* You want all the facilities from India. Never tell anyone you are Indian. Address yourself as Korean.

* Hey don't be angry. I love Korea.

* What about yours?

* I want to marry an amazing girl. 

* Are you married?

* No. I have suffered a lot. No love from my parent. I lost myself. My hard work made me shine. I live just for my wife. Trying to find her. To make her happy is my passion. I have not met her. Even though she is not beautiful or handicapped I will look after her as my mother.

Karishma was touched by it.

* You talk well, Hari.

* This is ain't a joke, it's truth. Painful hearts alone knew that love is best than dreams. Okay. Time's up. I wanna catch a train. Go to Korea and meet your partner. All the best.

Bye.

Hari leaves. Karishma was broken.

Hari's Insta story broke her again.

His story included:

You can't live a life as you imagine. There's an immense gap between reality and imagination. The poor people are satisfied with what they have, even though they imagine themselves as a rich man.

Karishma cried.

Hari stopped talking to Karishma. He equipped his heart to hate her. He lives in reality, but she was in imagination.

Karishma messaged him.

* Have you reached home?

No reply.

December 31

Still, Hari hasn't seen the message.

Karishma was upset.

At 1.30 p.m.

* Yes.

* Had your lunch? 

* Yes. You?

 

* No.

* Why?

* I am not hungry.

* Okay. Eat when you want.

* Hari, Can you tell me what is Love?

Have you fallen for anyone?

* Yes. But she left me 

* Why?

* Because I will not suit her.

* Tell me about love?

* Love is an incredible gift from the Almighty. Love is Divine. Love is created by the Creator, so It is Divine. Love is like a book. Love expresses the heart of the writer in the book. 

* What will be true love? 

* True love heals the wound. True love makes you happy. 

* Nice!! Advance Happy New Year. 

* Wish you the same. 

January 1, 2022

1 a.m

* Happy New Year Karishma.

* Have the happiest 2022.

* Thank you.

January 2, 2022

* Hari I was upset.

* What happened?

* I was worried about my future. 

* Don't worry about anything. Don't worry about others' compliments. Just focus on your work. Ignore those who hurt you.

 

* Okay. 

January 5

* She keeps messaging me.

Does she love me?

No. It's my mindvoice.

 January 10

* Hari, I got a job in media.

* Wow!! Congratulations.

* Is there anything else you want to tell me?

* No.

* Are you sure?

* Yes.

* Thank you for your wishes.

12.00 a. m.

Karishma received 2 messages.

1. Happy Birthday to my friend.

2. Your first step to booking the flight ticket to Korea is successfully completed.

Karishma was stunned.

* Thank you, Hari. How did you remember this?

* Can I forget the birthday of my friend?

 

* Am I your friend?

* Yes. You are my friend.

* Will text you tomorrow.

* 👍🏻

January 11

Phone Rings......

* Hello.

* Karishma, how are you?

* Fine Ma'am.

* Do you remember me?

* Yes, Flora Ma'am.

* Right. Happy Birthday dear.

* Thank you, Ma'am. You still remember me. 

* Yes. How are you?

* I lost myself.

* Hey what happened?

(Cries)

* Hey, it's your birthday don't cry.

* Ma'am, shall we meet?

* Sure. Venue?

* At Airport Road 12. p.m.

* Okay.

* Are you busy Ma'am?

* No. 

12.05 p.m.

* Good Afternoon, Ma'am.

* Good afternoon.

* How was your birthday celebration?

 

* Bad.

* What happened?

* Ma'am, I love Korea. I want to marry a Korean.

* Okay. What you will do if it doesn't suit you?

* I don't know.

* You are in India. We can't live as in Korean and Chinese dramas. Everything is different in reality. You dream a lot due to your impact on this drama. Where does the happiness lie? Happiness lies in the people who care for you. As your parents shouldn't share their love, your impact towards K dramas drove you away from real life. Don't lose your life, by digging your future because of imagination. Always remember there's a huge difference between Life and imagination. I know many people who lost their lives because of following their imagination. Even I dreamed a lot about my life. I had my own plans, but they failed. I was broken. I lost myself in my imagination. Finally, I decided to accept the life I haven't dreamed of. So don't waste your life with the imagination. If you break it, you can make it whole again.

* Okay Mam.

* Be happy.

* How to find the spirit of Love?

* True love makes you shine through their hard work.

* How to find them?

* They will make you realize that they are more beautiful than your imagination. Are you okay?

 

* Definitely 💯. I want more clarity about love.

* True love never shares their pain with you Because they don't want you to bother about them. Instead, they care for you more. 

January 15

* Had your breakfast?

* Not yet.

* Why?

* I am not hungry.

* Why?

* I had a heavy dinner yesterday.

* Is it true?

* 💯

* 👍🏻

January 20

* Hari I am going to Korea on the 28. Please come to Chennai.

* Sure.

January 28 

At Airport

Hari never came.

11. 30 a.m.

* Karishma!!

* Flora, Ma'am. Why are you here?

* You are going to Korea, I came to see you before you leave.

* When does the flight leaves? 

* 2.0 p.m.

* Okay. I will stay with you. Whom are you searching for?

 

* None.

* Are you hiding something from me?

* No.

* Yes. Your eyes say so. Are you in love? 

* Noooo.

* Why there's hesitation?

* Hari.

* Oh!! The one you chat in Instagram.

* Yeah.

* Do you love him?

* Yes. But I never knew about his family. I never knew whether he loves me.

He made me find myself. He made me realize what life is.

* Okay. What are you going to do?

* Now, I am going to Korea. Because he hasn't arrived yet. Maybe he had another business.

* He loves you.

* What?

* When you informed me about Hari on your birthday. I started to enquire about him. I began to chat with him through my cousin's id. I tried to find out about his character. When I started to ask him about love. He just said he loves someone. And I guessed it was you.

* You have guessed. Not every guess becomes true. 

 

* Surely he will come here.

* Let me see. Two hours more.

1.55 a.m

* Karishma, Definitely he will come. 

* Is it Ma'am?

* Yeah. I want to tell you something.

* When you mentioned me, Hari. On January 12 I tried to contact Hari. I enquired about him with my KaniyaKumari friends. Later I found out that he was a student of my friend. My friend told me about his family matters.

He was not regarded as a son. His father passed away. Today was his death anniversary. Hari was hardworking and kind-hearted. He grew up by his hard work.

He fell you. But he was broken when you want to marry a Korean. Listen to this voice message.

* Hari, will you care for your wife?

* Yes. No matter whether it is, even though he doesn't have legs, I will love her. As long as I can, I will care for her. She is my home. I will stay connected to her. 

* Karishma cries.

* Don't cry, Karishma.

* On the 17th of January I met him at this airport. He shared his pain with me. As I introduced myself as your Ma'am, he began to respect me. His father died on this day (January 28). He is depressed. He yearned for love. His mother and sister rejected him. He tried to kill himself nearly 20 times. He works hard. He thought you will be his. But as you are attached to Korea, his life began to scatter. He was broken. At last, he altered his heart to hate you.

* Will he come?

* Today is his father's death anniversary. 

* Karishma!!? (Sound from the right side)

She smiled.

She ran to hug him.

But she stopped him.

* Only my wife can hug me.

* Hari, I love you.

* What do you say?

* I love you.

Hari smiles. They hug each other.

* Are you going to Korea?

* No. I just lied to you. I wanna be with you. Your love made me change India into Korea. Now, India seems to be more beautiful than Korea. Can we marry?

* Sure.

* Where you will stay?

* With you in Chennai.

* Kaniyakumari?

* As you left Korea for my love, I will leave my native for your love.
