End-Beginning
Heyy..did you bring the book I asked?
I asked you something…WHERE is the book??
You know how long I’ve been waiting for you..
Did you actually wait for me??
You waited for ‘your book’ right?
Why are you so angry?
Give me the book…
you know what your problem is?
I haven’t brought your book! OK?
My head is splitting already…
and you on top of that…
I wanted that for the book
 reading get-together only..
..it’s ok...What’s your problem now?
Sometimes I wish we had separate rooms..
..space constraint...
..it is so irritating..
SPACE CONSTRAINT?
We got this house with great difficulty..
All that nonsense & humiliation 
we had to go through..
..to get this beautiful small space?
CAN YOU SHUT UP FOR A WHILE?
PLEASE...
Cannot!
You want tea?
Do you want to eat something?
I don’t want ANYTHING!
What happened my dear? Here…
Didn’t I tell you I don’t want tea?
The tea is really good…
if you don’t want it…fine…
I know why you are like this..
Did your parents say anything?
Didn’t say anything…
I know you met them..
Hey..
..if you keep it  inside..
later it will all burst out..
..then I’ll have to bear the brunt of it!
Just because ‘you’ told me I went to see them..
you & your good-for-nothing saintly ideas…
What happened?
 Tell me…
Nothing! 
We’ll talk later…
Alright…no need…ok?
So..I have to go get the book myself now?
Then…am not going!
Hypocrisy in everything!
There is no integrity..
I give up...
Is this all new to us?
You went home after a long time right?
Did your parents say anything?
They are fine right?
Bhairav must be 12 years old right?
Sigh…He was the only one who greeted me lovingly..
Why can’t humans express their 
soulfulness the way animals do??
I gave them a piece of my mind today..
& they call themselves progressives!
Did you jump to our topic right away?
I don’t know to talk superficially..
I wanted to show them that I'm  happy 
& content about the choice I made..
is that wrong?
YOU tell me..
If they talk unnecessarily to me I cannot
 just shut my mouth & listen to all of that!
My anger is legitimate here..
I cannot listen to this
 HETERONORMATIVE BULLSHIT anymore!
It doesn’t help that you 
walk out on them in anger..
..there will be no interaction or
 peace between you & them right?
We’ve already thrown away our CASTES & RELIGIONS…
& are trying to live like human beings..
They cannot do that..
They will live in this stubbornness
till the end of their lives...
& if we go to them, 
they will kill us also gradually…
..look..
People just stop listening to you..
..when you attack the very 
foundation of their belief system…
Don’t react….respond!
If you respond calmly,
they will listen to you 
& later think about it..
If you walk out on them angrily,
then it will all be incomplete…
Let it be incomplete…
I DON’T WANT TO CARE!
They still think ‘THIS’ is a psychological issue!
heyy...
They provoke me unnecessarily!
All they think about is Society!
What will Society think? What will they say?
 What will they think?
Am I living happily?
Do I have a partner I can trust?
What  projects do I do?
They don’t want to
 know anything!
..because they don’t care!
you think I’m that blind?
I cannot do this anymore!
I didn’t mean to say that..
I’m just asking you to change
 the way you approach this..
You know this is not working out for you right?
OK…tell me what you want out of this?
I just feel like throwing everything 
away & walking out on this!
You think that will
 make things better?
Tell me what's do-able..
they are your parents right?
Ok…we’ve challenged their belief system..
now what??
Why are they still thinking like this?
What was their life experience like?
If we had been born in their generation,
would we think like this?
Look..
our sensitivity depends on our life experiences..
You…
try talking to your mother..
..alone..
..but don't shout..
..already your father disrespects her a lot…!
That is exactly my point!
They don’t have a loving relationship..
They commit to each other, 
get married, have kids..
..then with the idea of ‘keeping the family together’ 
without any mutual respect,
..companionship or love they only
 TOLERATE each other throughout…
..now i find love..
..they cannot accept it..
heyy..
…each of us has a capacity..
beyond that capacity we cannot 
push anyone to do anything..
you should understand that..
That is not an excuse!
Are you saying that they are not wrong?
Not like that my dear..
When two people love..
..it is just love..
..just emotions..
THE SOUL HAS NO GENDER!
Why doesn’t anyone understand that?
When they see or hear about LGBT,
..the first thing that comes to their mind
 is that it is purely a physical relationship..
It is so Bloody absurd!
It’s a big change for them
 that we came out in the open..
now we have to make them understand gradually..
..don't give up yet..
You know? They are new to all of this..
but we have to make them understand..
baby steps…remember?
listen..
I cannot carry 50kgs at one stretch..
Even if ‘you’ or anyone forces me to carry that much,
if I cannot…I just cannot!
everyone is like that…
How many parents throw their
 children out of their houses?
..when they realize that their kids are either 
Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals or Transgenders?
and..
..how many..
How many suffer in that forced identity?
& live in fear?
We have had so much courage 
to come out & live together right?
If we give up now..
they would...
they would never get an opportunity to..
understand...
& feel what it is..
to love like us!
Human society is also like that..
..they will definitely change..
& we can make that happen..
with LOVE..
Give it some time dear...
Don’t you think we have lost enough?
Your patience or wisdom or whatever it is..
..it scares me...
..i think i'll lose it...
everything will be ok my love..
everything will be fine..
don't suffer like this..
..let it go..
You're such a bloody liar!
..& a very good one at it..
I’ll go change & come…
yeah...go..
Do you know about ‘NIYOGA DHARMA’?
no..
The centuries old Indian practice of..
..Sexual Permissiveness of a Woman!
ok..read..let me listen..
..this is not that..
listen to this one though..
ok..
