YES!! I've Seen Her Before - 2

(Please read the previous part, "Haven't I seen her before??" to understand the story better)

That rebellious teenage girl's voice kept on ringing in my ears, more so because I have one of my own, whose jolly easygoing temperament is becoming irritable day by day and she's becoming more and more assertive about her own space and opinions.

I know the lady inspector of the police station through which that girl had been brought to me. I dug out her number and requested her to personally look into that particular girl's case and to inform me about its outcome. The lady inspector did oblige me as she understood the insecurities of mothers about the children. 

That girl had refused to return home with her parents insisting on the fact that they never understood her, never cared for anybody other than themselves etc. The parents were also stubborn enough not to withdraw the fake rape case against her. 

Between two years passed and she became an adult to assert her decision not to go back. The case had to be dismissed as her parents disowned, her calling her a disgrace to the family in open court.

But the story didn't end there. Teenagers and young adults aren't matured and street smart enough to understand and face the big bad world by themselves,as they consider themselves to be!!

Again that girl's identity resurfaced when the police ambushed that NGO for carrying out a prostitution and drug peddling racket under the cover of social services and all of the members were sent to jail as undertrial prisoners.

Then came the Corona season which swept away all other vices and problems. The lady inspector asked me," So madam, You have noticed those fallen women roaming around freely in the market looking for customers!! They must have escaped from the prison during COVID times and we'll have to be more vigilant to catch them again!!!"

"Fallen women"??, I thought .."Why couldn't I agree with this nomenclature of the teenager girls, who feel insecure and alienated from their own homes due to hormonal imbalances and succumb to their irrational anger and emotions because of their age and the parents also don't try to behave supportively to understand their issues rather than acting in a hard way to make them obey their versions of life???"..
