Confession

I am not writing this as blog/a write-up/an article etc. I am writing this as Mahima Kumar for whom statuses and 140 characters are too less to express the feeling I am feeling right now. 

I want to confess that I am freakin SCARED after what all is happening. I would not specify any geographical region here but I am seriously scared. I thought of myslef as a very brave girl, very tomboyish who did hold collars of friends in college and fought with people in metro or DTC bus. I fight, I fight with chai wala for hitting a dog, I fight with men for staring my friend, I fight with a lady who tries to brake the que, I fight with people outside the mall begging and asking for ice creams, I fight with auto walas for 10 Rs to save my hard earned money. 

BUT now I am scared, I am scared of walking on the road, getting down the stairs alone, walking down from station to home ( which is not even 100m ) I am scared of fighting back. I know this is the most foolish thing girls could do at this stage. I know we should be brave and strong and fight back but when I think of it that this thing could let me feel failed, I can only imagine what other girls are feeling. 

I am mourning today not only for that girl but for myself for other girls who would think twice to go for a movie on a sunday evening. 

I rest my case. Yeas, this is what has been left into deep corners of our hearts.
