The day started with a thump as it happens in a middle class household. Rahila woke up with a shudder. Her mother yelled at her younger sister for not getting up early. When a day starts like this, by experience she knew everything will go in drain.

"Ma, Will you please stop shouting? It spoils the entire mood of the day". Rahila's words triggered her mother for some more words. Feeling exhausted both physically and mentally, she went to take bath. She knows 'verbal abuse' is also strong as 'mental abuse' and it always sucked her energy out and make her feel drained and powerless.

"Who is going to take me away from this?" She doesn't want to think the home as a hell because it was once a paradise that helped her to grow into a person with a romantic outlook toward life and enjoy everything around her. No one can blame for the things that are happening as she is destined to go through all these types of misgivings.

In a frustrated mood on the day, she poured down her feelings and posted it as a poem in her blog. So far, she did not receive any comments for whatever she posted.

The poem she posted on that day received few comments and Bharath got introduced to her through this.

After reading so many things about friendship developed over Internet, she never believed in building up a relationship with someone she has never met.

To her surprise, it started with few mails and gradually it developed into a strong relationship that helped her to find her best friend.

Just like a beautiful perfumed jasmine flower which slowly unfurled its petals at dusk and spread the perfume throughout the dark night, her friendship with Bharath extended through her years and helped her to achieve her dream. She started to smile always as she can see her long awaited goal nearby.

How it happened ?

To be continued...

Another Day to Cherish!

Just like this perfumed jasmine flowers, his friendship added perfume to her long dreamed goals.
