How do you think I feel when I go out meet my friends , your marks makes me uncomfortable .
And don’t u realize how hard I and your dad are working,and for whom.,”shouted, mother subhadra to Uma,her daughter.
Uma replied,” Mom I have a question,why u both should work?If one of you gives up the job, it’s a livelihood for an unemployee.Isn’t it?
Irritated subhadra came angrily and slapped on uma’s face and said.”r u not ashamed of ,to say this” .
Uma,having been hurt walked up the stairs into a room.
Shbhadra followed her and continued to torture saying “I give you nothing,expect neither food not water till you obtain 100 out of 100.
Mom,Uma replied,”Is it marks which determine my food and water.
Then what about others who r getting lesser than I got
. And they r happier than Iam.Do u know?”
Subhadra again bet her for giving a reply and left the room.
It was on the next morning,rest of the world moving as usual.
But ,Uma who jumped off the second floor might have thought she can improve this world,people.
