Who doesn't dream of touching the sky? Who doesn't want to move forward in their life? Everyone wants to climb the stairs of success continuously in their life. Everyone runs after money. Like everyone else, I also had the habit of running after money, I also had the urge to touch the sky. I also wanted to progress a lot. My whole childhood was spent in poverty. When I was old enough to play with toys, I used to work in a toy store.
I used to want to play with these toys to the fullest, but the compulsion was such that these toys were allowed to be sold only to the children of the rich.
Salary was Rs.750 on 8th of every month. Mother's medicine had to be bought with half of this money and ration for the whole month with half the money. If 1-2 days were missed in a month, then the salary could not even bear the expenses of the month. I didn't even know when my childhood passed while fighting with these situations. But even in the midst of these circumstances, I somehow managed to continue my studies till 12th standard.
After passing 12th, I left my small town and reached a big metropolis like Delhi. After coming here I had to face many problems but after these problems I got a job in a call center.
I was unaware of all the new things here and being unaware of everything, I started concentrating on my work. I did not want to spend the rest of my life in straitened conditions like in my childhood. That's why I was doing my work with full devotion and honesty.
It had been almost 10 months since I had joined the job in that call center but never reached the office late in these days. But one day I reached the office a little late. All the people working with me were busy in their respective works, in the meantime I caught sight of a new face among these people.
Brown hair, mascara in the eyes, pink lips, a small lovely dot was applied on his forehead. She was removing the hair coming on her face with her left hand. But still the locks of her hair were coming on her face. After seeing him, I did not even feel like turning my eyes away.
It seemed as if the whole world would stop today and every person and thing would remain in the same state as my eyes were on his face now. If the fairies really lived in heaven, then maybe they too would have lived like this.
I went to my place and sat down and forced my mind away from it and put it on the computer screen. After this he got busy with work. By the way, I didn't care much about girls in those days. Because of which there was not much relation with the girls.
While I was busy on a call, the brown haired girl made some gesture by touching my shoulders. I looked back at him, this time his eyes fought with mine for a moment but I immediately turned my gaze to the other side.
But then I understood his problem. Perhaps ! There was some problem with his headphones. I signaled him to wait for a few seconds by showing my hand and I again started talking to the customer on the call.
" What happened ? I asked the customer after the call was disconnected.
There is no sound in the headphones. Maybe some problem has come." She said
If she wanted, she could have given this information to the IT department of the call center, but instead of IT, she told me. I had also got a good chance to talk to him and I did not want to lose this opportunity by reporting it to the IT department.
So I took off my headphones and placed them on the CPU of my system and went close to it. He took out his headphones and handed them to me. At the same time his soft fingers touched my fingers. Just by the touch of his fingers, my whole body was like electricity.
When he took out his headphone jack and inserted it back, his voice problem went away.
"Sounds are coming now." I said while giving the headphones.
"Thanks" she said smiling.
I also mixed a little of my smile with his smile. And back we both got busy in work.
At lunch time we both went to the cafeteria together and had breakfast sitting at the same table. Meanwhile, many things happened between us. She told her name as Deepika and she was from Delhi only. From that day we became very good friends and apart from the call center, we started talking on the phone as well. That means our relationship grew very fast. Were staying Within just 20 days, both of us started going out on weekends.
One day Deepika and I both had gone for weekend outing to a nearby planetarium. When the show of geography in the constellation began, we had an imaginary galaxy. In which there were millions of stars and millions of planets. I was very excited to see all these things. Deepika was next to me. The fingers of his left hand were wrapped around the fingers of my right hand. It seemed as if both are going to live together like this for centuries.
Like these fingers, I was also lost in some thoughts. Somewhere in this imaginary Akash Ganga, Deepika and I started traveling in the entire Akash Ganga by becoming real companions. My illusion was shattered when the show got over and people started leaving.
There was a flower shop near the main gate of Tara Mandal, in which many types of flowers were being sold apart from roses. I bought a rose flower from that shop by paying 60 rupees. Seeing a good opportunity, he proposed to Deepika. I was living with Deepika for more than a month. But today while proposing her, my heart was beating no less than the speed of a superfast train. Her voice could be heard clearly from a distance even without keeping my head on my chest.
" I love you too .."
Hearing these few words from his lips, my ears felt such satisfaction as if raindrops had showered on dry sand.
I was very happy that day. After that there was happiness everywhere in our life. I got promoted in the very next month and was made floor manager directly from call receiver. Due to which my salary was also doubled. Now life was getting fun. Even after sending some money to his mother, he used to save a lot of money and apart from this he used to take Deepika somewhere or the other every weekend.
Deepika and I spent many nights together in the hotel. One night both of us were in a hotel called Boom Light in Delhi. By the way, both of us spent most of the nights in this hotel. That night when I asked Deepika for marriage, she refused saying, “I haven't thought about it yet. But soon I will tell after thinking"
"Ok, no problem. I am also in no hurry to get married. I spoke in exchange for his answer.
Deepika had now become an integral part of my life. Even imagining living without him was like death for me.
One day I was about to leave for office, when my younger uncle called from the village and he said, "Your mother's health is very bad." He has an infection in his kidney. The mother will have to undergo an operation as soon as possible. Otherwise, his life can also be lost.
I got upset after hearing this. Apart from some money, I had also earned (made) some friends during these days. For mother's treatment, after taking advance from my friends and company, I had made arrangements for one lakh eighteen thousand rupees. When Deepika came to know about mother's illness, she also donated 20 rupees for help. Took it and came to me. This much money was enough for mother's operation.
It was night, so I told Deepika to stay in my room where she lived, which was far away from my place. She was not staying in my room for the first time today. Even before that she had stayed here many nights.
Even on this day she agreed to stay. Maybe she knew that today I am very upset and she did not want to leave me alone in this condition.
By about 11 o'clock in the night, both had gone to sleep after having dinner.
The next day when my eyes opened, the ground beneath my feet shifted. The money bag and Deepika both were missing. I looked for her everywhere in the room, the bathroom, but she was nowhere to be seen.
I am scared . Something went wrong somewhere! I called Deepika's number. Her number was off. Exhausted, I went to his flat. I had visited his house only last week, due to which I knew the address of his house. On reaching there, seeing the lock hanging in his house, I understood that something must have gone wrong with me.
The landlord of that flat told, “She has gone somewhere with her husband at 5 in the morning. She suddenly told me yesterday that she has been transferred to a different job and she has to report there soon. Because of which I am vacating this room.
"She had a husband too?" I asked in surprise.
"Yes, her husband used to work in a clothes shop next door."
I understood completely after listening to the owner of the flat. She cheated me, fooled me and ran away with my money.
I was very broken by that incident. Even then I kept searching for him in the city for the whole day but could not find any trace of him. Uncle called again in the evening and asked about the money.
I remained silent after listening to him and started crying.

"Son, you are right!" Uncle said.
"Yes "
“Son, bring the money till morning, otherwise it will be difficult to save the mother. This is what the doctor told. Uncle said in a low voice.
“I will definitely come tomorrow with the money. Don't worry. I spoke before the call was disconnected.
I had to juggle money till morning. I was left with no solution, then suddenly an idea came to my mind. And I went to steal in my landlord's house. I knew it was wrong. My mind tried many times to stop me from doing this but I killed my soul and went inside the house.
It was about two o'clock in the night. As soon as I went inside the house to steal, the secretaries caught me and I was handed over to the police. I had a car in the morning to go home. But I went to jail.
On the other hand, my mother kept on suffering for the operation and uncle kept waiting for me outside the hospital. The doctor repeatedly asked uncle for money. But neither the money could reach there nor I did.
Ultimately the operation was not done due to lack of money and mother died. Uncle kept waiting for me till the cremation ground and kept redialing my mobile number again and again. But I could not reach there either.
In this way everything was ruined for me. And I kept rotting in jail for many years. My only mistake was that I had truly loved someone, trusted someone more than myself.
