Dear God,
Greetings to you from this earthling.I feel its time I wrote something to you about someone I care for since I was created by you.Its about my neighborhood girl.I have grown up with her.I have shared my bench,my tiffin box,my tear drops and my laughter with her.We used to be the ones our teachers would dote upon.She had a panache for writing and so did I.We joined the same journalism college after school.Their I shared my diary,my ideas,my opinions and my soul with her.Now we work for the same organization.No,god,no.This is not a lover's story.Story of one who was betrayed.Its vastly different.
My friend had left for her home early yesterday to visit her ailing father at the hospital.I had stayed back to finish some pending work.She had hailed a cab.The night of horror had started then.Two men forcefully barged into the cab and took it to a desolate spot.They were in connivance with the cab driver.Their my neighborhood girl was raped.Her shrieks were muffled by a dirty rag and her tears were pouring by the dozens.After the heinous act,they left my friend and drove off.Those heinous bastards.She called me up from the nearest dhaba the next morning.I was sleeping at my home after having finished my work.I rushed to the aid of my friend.The happy girl's face was one of horror,her eyes looked distant and her body had gone limp.I took her to the hospital where her dad was admitted to.Now both of them are recovering.I can see them from the bench at the hospital from where I am writing now.My whole body is livid with anger and my hands were shaking as I wrote this letter.I have not asked much from you god.ever.I just want you to make my neighboring family hale and hearty.They are an extension of my family.I can't control my tears now,so I will end my letter.Please return my smiling friend to me god.Please make the world a safer and better place to live in.
Hoping to see your miracle soon,
Your praying child.
