Happy NEW Year!


“Why can’t I go if anna can?” Sahiti argued.

It wasn’t the first time that she was denied permission to go out.

Angry and dejected with none yet all, she sat next to window looking at the unending darkness. A silent drop rolled down her cheeks as the clock struck twelve.

And then the answer dawned upon her; something her parents had never mentioned but was always implied, “Because you’re a girl”.

“Happy New Year!” she whispered and mocked at the irony.

Wondering how long will girls be made to suffer in this society endorsing fake equality!
