That time she was completing her schools. Lots of dreams, hopes, imagination, desires were there in that growing girl. Although she belongs to a small place but aspirations were so high. Among all desires there was one special wish like other girls of having a dream prince as its quite natural feeling of every human being.
She started making imaginations of her charming prince. The one, who will always love her, will care her, will think first of her happiness, then rest of the world, will always be there in her sorrows and most important he will UNDERSTAND her.
One day a boy came in her life and life became happier than before. It was like stepping towards making dream into reality. She was on 7th heaven. But time is not always same. They became so committed and faithful to each other that they promised to get married soon.
Their story reached to parents and some sort of fear aroused in her heart. Still she had confidence that her father will accept him because she is her dear daughter. But no!! She was wrong. Being dear to parents doesn’t mean that you are free to get married of your choice. All her request gone in vain.
She was now not allowed to go outside and it was the toughest thing to stay normal without him, her father fixes her marriage somewhere else, without her knowledge and acceptance. She plead a lot but her destiny was already written.
It was only one day left for her marriage and she got a call from her lost love. Listening his voice she lost her control and tears rolled out from her swollen eyes. She could easily feel the pain in his voice but nothing was in her hand. He wanted her to run away with him but after thinking a while she refused his request and hanged up. She didn’t want to see her parents get insulted and humiliated.
Now 16 year passed of her marriage and she is compelled to think again and again that, was she right in making decision? Is Love marriage always wrong and never Arrange??? Should she blame her parents for her fate????
Today she is living with the one who is drunkard to the extent that he has not such time even to talk although she has become used to of this situation because he is same from the day she got married. Domestic violence is normal thing for her, she has no permission to go outside and meet people, she can’t wear the dresses which she wants, and useless debates are the main part of her life. Despite of the fact that she is the mother of two sons she is living lonely and aimlessly. Elder son, who is now 15, has followed the same path of his father and become the supplier of his liquors, morning evening he comes with bottles and provide him all the time. School is not for them. Life seems stuck into liquor smell, loud musics and day night fights. unwantedly that teen love comes in mind who is living happily and respectively because he was a nice boy and is a gentleman today.

So sad to read about her life. Can't see tell someone close to her about this matter? Domestic violence is a vicious cycle.
Onee-chan i also felt very sad knowing her life story but she has become used to of all this.
Mishaikh, parents come and go. Now nothing is in their hand.
@Elen, She has now compromised her life and become habitual of all this so its no more weird for her.
So sad reading this story. Her life must be unbearable. But, she already has two sons. How obedient she is. He did it for the sake of her parents. Now, it depends on her. Whether she wants to change her life or not. To leave it or keep it.
For an arrange marriage,, just agree with Mishaikh. Thank you for sharing sana.
At this age of her it is rather not possible to leave the drunkard husband so as the kids. After all this is a tragedy. This should now be stopped, parents should gave a consideration to their kids choice, of course make a background checking if find okay then accept it, otherwise reveal the finding to the kids. If still they decide to get their choice, leave it to them, but do not leave or threat to leave them. They need moral support in good or bad.
Never is late, she can try to leave him. Of course i don't know in which country she lives and how is society there but she doesn't deserve this life.
I don't know whats your story Keen learner but be strong. and I've written this article on one of my neighbor's life.
