Shital was studied at Jaypal College of Arts and Atul was also in that college, he was one year senior at Shital. Both came to college and often they fell the eye to eye, she turn her face away with her blushing eyes. And it seemed Atul can feel a lot of stories in her eyes. After college he would go after her. Day by day they started falling in love, and finally, the flower blossomed. The promise of staying together, and living together was getting stronger as time passed on.

Both of them were well financialized. As Atul completed his graduation he got a corporate job. Both were happy thinking they going to get married very soon, it seemed their promise and dreams going to come true.

They got married after tens of years of their relationship. It seemed happiness was hailing from the sky on them and made their promises alive. Only after one day of marriage, Shital received a letter offering a job with a high salary. Greediness inside them made them agree with that letter.

A week after she went to the opposite edge of the state to have that job, and they got apart, leaving only virtual communication between them.

At the end of the month, both started to get pay cheques with good amounts. They could stay together but greed already took vast space between them and now they are away from each other.
