Life's firm decisions #storytellersbloghop

Aman comes from a Lower middle class family whose financial condition was worsening day by day.His father was a Tuberculosis patient,he had two sisters and one brother Aashish. 

 Both the brothers worked in a nearby town but couldn't earn enough to satisfy their family's all needs.so Aashish decided to send Aman to Hyderabad with one of their relative,who was working here from few years.

 Aman had migrated to Hyderabad in 1996 from his native village near Udaipur,Rajasthan in search of Opportunity. Initially,he worked in steel market,transportation market.

After working here and there to have some descent earnings ansd was able to send good amount to his family in the village,helping his family and supporting Aashish for better treatment of their father. 

 When he got the opportunity to start his own bussiness then onwards he didn't turn back.He started his own shop in partnership with one of his friend(Both of them worked in the same market). 

slowly,after settling his own bussiness.He got his wife sudha and his two kids Nisha and Aaditya to Hyderabad.

He was leading a very happy life with his small family.They were staying in a rented apartment.He enrolled his kids in one of the good schools and visited their village during summer vacations of school.i.april and may.
 After their grand parents demise Nisha and Aditya visited their native occasionally.

Aman and sudha visited if any of thework popped up.both brother sister were very bright students. Aaditya and Nisha went on to do MBA and B.Tech respectively from one of the reputed colleges of Hyderabad.Both of them started working in big organisations.

 parents started looking for prospective groom for nisha.nisha has been raised equivalent to aditya.she was never stoppped from doing anything,never stopped from going anywhere. she was like a tom boy always wearing jeans.she don't even know how to drape a saree,was unaware of all rituals i.e any Rasam riwaz and sudha never forced her to learn. 

 Nisha went on to prepare for UPSC after working for 1.5 years.went on to clear CDS Examinations and went for it's SSB at Bangalore.she got herself trained under colonel Nair at Officers Training Academy,Tirumalgherry.But unfortunately she couldn't clear SSB.But, his experience fetched her many friends from different states of india. 

 Her parents stood as supportive pillars for their daughter and encouraged her to do what she loved.nisha loved teaching so they supported her to start her own Academy.

she worked on her Academy along with her UPSC preparation as she had to teach kids from 5-9pm before that she had whole day to herself to her preparation. After giving 3 attempts and giving 4 years to preparation she decided to quit it and move on.

Even though it was her and Aman's dream of getting into UPSC but destiny has some other plans for her.she was successfullyrunning her institute and within no time she earned a good namein her area.she was respected by the people of her area. she had almost 50+students in different batches.

she was financially independent and confident as she was following her passion.she was earning quite more thamn her friends earning in big IT companies. Aaditya after working in a corporate world for one year,joined his father's bussiness and started traditional methods of doing bussiness which can be learned practically from his father. 

 Both Aman and sudha were happy with the career growth of their kids but what made them worry was nisha's marriage.They come from a conservative community in which you don't find either open minded family or an educated guy. sudha never wanted her daughter to be treated like a servant to her family,she never wanted her daughter to give up on her dreams.

 she has been seeing nisha working very hard on her dreams,giving up her sleep.so,she wanted nisha to have her career even after marriage.Actually a mother leaves her own dreams through her daughter. Most of the indian mothers who had to give up on their dreams try to live them through their daughters.

 Aashish and his wife wanted Aman to marry off nisha to his brother in law's son Ajit,who was a govt teacher. Aashish and his wife pooja pressurized Aman for this match but,sudha went against Aashis and family for the sake of her daughter's dreams. she clearly said "NO" for this alliance.

she said she cannot give her daughter to afamily where women is still treated as a servant,her education is not at all considered.she is just seen as kids producing machine. Inspite of being govt teacher,his thoughts are against women.she cannot give her daughter to educated illiterate family. Aman always stood behind her decisions and this created a rift between Aman and Aashish. Within a year,sudha and aman got a match of Deekshit for Nisha.

Deekshit was working in Jaipur.His family was from Tonk.Aman and sudha asked nisha to talk to Deekshit and if she is fine with him they will go ahead with the formalities. Nisha fell in love with the behaviour of Deekshit,he was like Aman,her father. What a girl wants in her life,A life partner who treats her like a queen like her father. Deekshit and his family was not Rich by money but was Rich by they thought..their "SOCH".which was what needed by sudha and aman for their daughter.

 Now,it's been 8 years to nisha's marriage.she is happily settled in Jaipur,having a son and running her own institute.Deekshit always stood behind her helping her to reesatablish her career and working on parenthood. He wanted nisha to grow personally and professionally. In a society,where still we find educated illiterate families who want an educated girl but don't want her to have a career. when women supports women instead of pulling each other,they start growing together.

    Great that her parents chose the right partner for her.
    The kids did well after getting the city-life. Parents also treated them at par. That's how Nisha is independent.
