Leaving home 1

 Due to the noise neighbors of Meera started to gather there. People in the village are used to the fight of Vijay. They often see how brutally he beat his wife, and how his family treated Meera. At first, they feel bad, but now it is a usual thing, and what more Meera never complain about it then who are they to talk about it? 

"Why are you crying in the morning?" One of the older women questions Meera. 

"Aunty, my husband beat me like an animal yesterday and once again beat me at night, and now my mother-in-law wanted me to work, and if I don't go then they are going to beat me again & might sell my son.

I have a fever and don't eat anything for two days, but today I eat an egg, then people are making an issue of it. Tell me aunty who treats a human like this" Meera said while sobbing badly.
