#20 …when you'd give it everything you got and won't think twice.

When Ragini first revealed to us about her liking for Alfaz, we had mixed feelings. We knew they were good friends, but the fact that her friendship is evolving, went unnoticed. We knew Alfaz well enough to agree he was the right guy for Ragini. But the problem cropped up when it was time to inform their parents. She was well aware that her relationship wouldn’t be accepted. She was trying to do something out of the box, something that would strongly identify generation gap. It was commendable the way she tried to make things up. But when events turned brutal, she decided to leave behind everything for Alfaz. She had no second thoughts. It was not at all easy – giving up your maiden home, your parents’ love, your siblings company and that too with a bleak hope that things will turn out fine in the near future. Only Love could give her this will power and conviction to stand undeterred in the face of violent storm. Otherwise it was difficult to imagine her doing something like this 13 years back when I had first met this diffident teenager.
