 It's 2015 Ek Prem crossed his four-year journey and had tied the knot. This is the story of Buddha and Guddu. The journey of love between them was passing very well. They used to go out on their everyday life together in the laughter of Bhopal. On occasional early leave from office, they used to travel somewhere far away together. In the city of Bhopal, they would enjoy a variety of delicious food together. Guddu loved Kachori, Chole and Paneer Kulcha. This cycle continued between them. The couple of Buddha and Guddu, who were tied in a new marriage, were getting very strong, were shining.


 After six months of marriage, Buddha and Guddu got the good news of a new world. Guddu was very happy with this news. In the joy of having children, they started nurturing new dreams every day. Now as the winter season was progressing, Guddu's happiness was also increasing at a rapid pace. But suddenly one day this happiness turned into sorrow. The happiness for which Buddha and Guddu had cherished all the dreams was probably about to be lost. Tests at the fifth month showed that the 'foetus was abnormal, an important part of the brain, the vermis had not yet developed. The left kidney was an oligo kidney with small size and little amount of urine formation.' According to gynaecologists in Bhopal where Guddu was getting regular check-ups, the experts told that 'if we wait for 20 weeks then also the vermis part of the brain development will not be completed. Because the brain development of the foetus takes place only till 19 weeks of gestation period. Its duration should not be more than that. In medical science it is known as 'Dandy-Walker Syndrome'. Two other gynecologists from Bhopal told during the investigation that 'this child cannot even survive for long. If the child is born then it will be born abnormally. Even if he is somehow saved, according to experts, he will not be able to live more than 5-6 years".


 Guddu was getting broken due to all this kind of medicine and expert consultation. Even if it is broken, the pain of a child is only the mother who can feel it. Now all the dreams of Guddu started breaking one by one. She also started getting frustrated and frustrated with her life. She did not want to lose her first sign of love at any cost. Now Guddu's mind was not created in any passion. They had also gradually reduced the food and drink. She used to spend her time sitting alone on the terrace till late at night even in the cold weather.

 Guddu wanted that at least once she should be seen at Delhi Foetal Diagnostic Center also. But she was alone, husband and in-laws also did not support her. In this way, the person for whom Guddu had left everything behind, with whom she wanted to be together in every happiness and sorrow of life, that person cheated her. Without telling Guddu anything, Buddha got him admitted to a nearby hospital and got the child aborted. When Guddu regained consciousness, all his dreams were shattered. She had lost her little world. This pain was many times greater than the pain of that abortion. Seeing the Buddha, he felt that he was not at all attached to his new world 'Udit', which Guddu had already named. When Buddha came back home after Udit's last rites, he did not appear inconsolable at all. As usual ate meat and fish with rice. Seeing this, Guddu got into thinking that how can a father do this..?


 Slowly now the tension between Buddha and Guddu started increasing. Buddha now only pretended to be in love with her. This kind of incident happened with Guddu, his family members were very hurt. From time to time he used to explain to Guddu. But Guddu was falling apart. Taking the edge of her marks, she always wondered whether God had written the mountain of sorrow in my own part. After all, what have I done wrong? The punishment for which I am suffering.

 To give a new identity to his love, he named his first sign 'Udit'. She always used to think that whether it is a boy or a girl, I will provide proper and good education, I will make him or her as a doctor. She wanted to sacrifice all her dreams on her child. But this wish of his remained as a wish. After Udit's departure, the behavior of his family and husband Buddha had completely broken her.


 Mother always used to explain to Guddu that even if 'Udit' survived alive, his suffering could not be seen from all of us. The pain intensified when he suffered day and night in front of his eyes. Explaining to Guddu, the mother gave courage that 'Daughter, you should understand that God has freed that child from the agony of the effects of the syndrome. But where was Guddu ready to understand? She started to remain inconsolable in Udit's thoughts.

 Slowly Guddu is now counting the days and now it has been five years and seven months since that incident. Guddu is still living with that pain and still thinks that if Buddha had done a check up on foetal diagnosis in Delhi once, may be Udit would have been alive today, Udit would have looked like me. She thinks about many such dreams again, thinks and then becomes sad.


 After so many years, the love for which she had left everything behind had also changed. Buddha was no longer the previous Buddha. He would come to Guddu whenever he felt like sleeping on the bed with him and pretend to love and leave. In this way, the love story of Buddha and Guddu, which started with a lot of dreams, slowly moved towards the end. Guddu is still living life with the help of the memories of Udit and Buddha with hope in the future.
