Local train

There's lot of difference between witnessing the pain and undergoing through pain. Malini believes in this quote so strong. She lives in Borivali, suburb of Mumbai and is located at its north-western end. As like everyone dream about future Malini too had one. But she never wanted to recall her past which will smell like a hell.

Malini was born and brought up in kandivali, half an hour from her current location. She wasn't form the well settled family background. Some stories were told behind her back about her birth. They use to tell that her mother worked for years as a prostitute in Tharavi area. Later she found her love and then she was happened to have you. 

Malini's mother never revealed the name of her father, because they were bonded only by love not in any relationships. But malini never seemed to be worry about these shits.

Malini use to dream herself as a teacher right from her childhood. But the fate she had didn't allowed her to continue further from her class 8. Malini started pushed herself to get in to jobs that she can find. She manages to get Rs.100/- daily which wasn't enough for their basic needs and food.

Years passed by, malini turned 24. In between of these hard years she lost her one and only hope she had. Yes, her mother passed away a year back in traumatic stress. She felt the whole world is against her. Malini was abused mentally in many ways by the idiotic people by blaming her mother's character and taking advantage of being alone. She wished to move into a new place, but the debts she had doesn't allow her to do.

Malini started to looking for full time jobs to take care of her needs. She use to travel in local train daily to check in at church-gate station and look for jobs in the foot path and other shops nearby. Malini got a friend named Aarushi, whom she use to meet daily in the church-gate junction. She is of same as Malini.

At times, they share their food in the afternoon, their routine meeting spot was the rusted steel bench placed at the left corner from the main entrance of church-gate station. Malini & Aarushi got their jobs Yash knitting and knitwear manufacturing industry. They got paid around 7-8K monthly.

Malini and Aarushi never believed on any men in this world. They use to speak lot about the happenings in the society and they share their feelings. Aarushi was thrown into a bin when she was born. She was raised So she never cared about their parents name either. At times, they both sit and speak for a long in church-gate bench after they got their work done.

They planned to share a house for rent. So that they can spend more time together. Aarushi got more possessive over malini. For instance, one day while they were returning in local train from their work place, train seemed to be completely occupied. Both find some place to stand after sometime they got some space and Aarushi got a seat too. Guy around of age 28, who was standing behind malini. 

That guy was found to be normal for sometime but later her reactions showed he wasn't. He was trying to hold her hands in the support bar and trying to abuse her physically. Whereas no can judge easily what he was up to. Aarushi noticed malini's face reaction which was completely embarrassing. She reacted to that guy in less than the time that lightening spark would take to reach your eyes.

She punched that guy perfectly in the midst of nose and mouth. He felt ashamed and didn't have anything to say in return. Malini looked her in way that conveys 'I feel secure'. Aarushi left her a look like 'I know you my girl'. They use to comfort each other with HUGS when they feel low, broken down, high in love, to share the pain and  countless smiles daily.

Universe is filled with so many magical things, they doesn't know what made 'em to feel more than friends. They started loving each other in all the ways they could. They discussed a lot about this and finally what they can see is LOVE. They felt their love is beyond the boundary of love.
Aarushi wanted malini not to discuss further on this. Malini too loved her in the same way, but never expressed that.

They started dreaming together towards ONE goal, with unconditional love and trust they made their bonding so strong. At times, they make love, they kiss each other, they didn't do it for the cause of lust. It's not explainable.

One day, both of them were sitting at roof top,
Malini asked Aarushi in lower voice, Baby! What we are doing is right? 

Aarushi replied her in calmed soft tone 'Yes baby, 100% we are doing the right thing'. Love isn't defined to happen only between the opposite sex. It's not about good or bad, we are doing what our hearts asking to do. It might be new to our country and religion what we are following. 

Have you heard 'Nothing is wrong in love and war'

Malini saw her with questioned eye brows. What about a baby for us?, we need someone in our life to look after us and to share our love right?

This question seemed to be more valid one and meaningful. Aarushi replied, Yes, sure we'll get one. If god have that plan for us. Smiled and winked at her naughtily.

Their life moved so good, they created a world for them where no intruders can interfere and ask 'em what the hell is going on? Together hold some of their savings to start a business of their own.

After four months, they were walking to towards their home. Clock showed 'em it's 04.30 a.m. They were so tired because they had their night shift for that day. They weren't aware what's gonna happen next.

Before the last turn to their home, Malini felt her heart heavy, she hear the whimpering sound of baby from the garbage bin. She found a baby boy wrapped with news paper.

Aarushi took him out from the bin and infant had few blood stains then and there, that means he has brought to this world few hours back. Aarushi wanted to inform police regarding this, but malini doesn't want her to do.

Baby hold Aarushi's finger so strong, both of 'em smiled. He started crying for milk in hunger. She felt something which mother's can feel 'em.

He became as son of two mother's. Aarushi & Malini welcomed him to their world by placing a kisses on his cheeks. They named him 'Armaan' (Means hope or desire)

New mother's were born. 

(For avoiding legal conflicts in future, they filed a police complaint and got him certified for adoption from the home where Aarushi was brought up)
