Daisy is a girl of 27. She has been chubby since her childhood. She was born and brought up in a joint family. She has to go through many uncomfortable comments due to her heavy weight. Even, amid her family, some of her relatives don't spare her for her curves.” How much do you eat?””O my god! You are just like an elephant.” She is quite familiar with the weird look thrown upon her whenever she walks outside her home. But whatever it may be, she can never compromise her love for food. She is an out and out gourmet. Apart from her obesity, she doesn't have any associate problem.
After completing her academics, she has joined in one of the IIT companies. The first day in the office has been not so well. The weight of her body does not create as much pressure as the the pressure from society. First day in the office, when she was going to sit on her chair, one of her colleagues says ironically, “ hold on. Please, slowly be seated, otherwise, the chair may be broken. A roll of loud laughter was breaking the silence of the office.” She tried to put an artificial embarrassing smile on her lips pretending to be little bothered. But how long one can not bother when the society is continuously poking the unwanted nose into the personal matter of a person. However, she was prepared for this kind of welcoming note. Life can never be so easy who are out of society predicted what they should be.
But the only person Daisy really believes and depends is Akash. He is man of progressive thinking and liberal outlook. Whenever the other colleagues try to make fun of her overweight,he comes to be her saviour. “Can't you stop,people. We all have our own flaws. What if a girl does not match your thought of beauty! She is beautiful in her own way. Just leave her and oil your machine”.
Daisy is quite aware of her growing attraction towards Akash. But her heart is out of her control,now. Somehow, she is under the spell of this guy,Akash. She enjoys the gossip, tea time with Akash in the office. What Daisy likes most about Akash is his simplicity. He doesn't judge anyone by the apparent look. The days are passing restlessly. “Should I let Akash know about my feelings for him? What if he rejects me? Will anyone accept a girl of ninety kg. But Akash is not like others. He is quite mature. He knows quite well how I am as a human being. After all, our wave length matches. I can't be like this any more. I must inform him about my feelings. He will understand definitely. “
“Hey,hi,Akash. What are you doing this evening after office?” Daisy asked. “Nothing special. Why? Do you have any plan?”,asked Akash.
“Actually, I was thinking of going for a short walk with you.”,said Daisy.
“O quite well! I don't have any problem. Let's go. This office schedule is going so hectic. Let's go for some fresh air. “,happily agreed Akash.
“Ok.Then be ready. We will go together after the office hours. “,said Daisy. “Done!”,said Akash.
