A bun in the Oven

In the quiet town that nestled between tradition and the pulse of modern life, Karma found herself at a crossroads, carrying a secret that would alter her path forever. The news of her pregnancy brought a storm of emotions, but none so poignant as the moment she decided to share this revelation with Chencho, the man she believed to be the father. Their reunion was a tapestry of unspoken words and suppressed feelings, underlined by the gravity of Karma's condition and the uncertainty of their future together.

Chencho's reaction was a blend of disbelief and fear, his mind racing through the implications of this unexpected turn in their lives. The conversation that unfolded under the shade of the eucalyptus was charged with tension, each word heavy with the weight of decisions yet to be made. Chencho, grappling with the societal and familial expectations placed upon him, saw escape in the form of a drastic suggestion — an abortion, a solution that offered a way out but stood in stark contrast to Karma's resolve to keep the child.

Karma's refusal to consider Chencho's proposal was not born of naivety but of a deep, unwavering conviction in the sanctity of the life growing within her. Her determination was a beacon of strength, even as Chencho wavered, torn between his perceived duties and the reality of their situation. In a moment of apparent acceptance, Chencho's words seemed to offer a glimmer of hope, a promise of responsibility and support that Karma had longed to hear.

However, the facade of understanding and acceptance was shattered by Chencho's subsequent actions. The trust and affection that Karma extended towards him were met with betrayal of the most heinous kind. Chencho's act of violence, cloaked in the guise of acceptance, left Karma lifeless, her dreams and the future she envisioned for her child extinguished in a single, devastating moment.

The aftermath of this tragedy unfolded in the public eye as a tale of sorrow and loss, yet the truth of Karma's demise remained buried, obscured by the narrative of suicide propagated by the authorities and media. Chencho, haunted by the guilt of his actions, found himself trapped in a prison of his own making, his conscience the only witness to the grim reality of what transpired beneath the eucalyptus.

Are you a freshly passed class XII Student? Or are you a teacher or parent to the fore mentioned category. If So, I would like to share you about What APEMS is, it's benefit, advantages of holding onto one, which place is better for you, Bangladesh or Sri Lanka?, Does it discourage students from lower socio-economic background to take such a chances?.. Well you are going to see it!!  APEMS stands for Assistance for Privately Enrolled Medical Students. By it acronym , and its name it is defined somehow to be looking like just assistance by which in that matter you are actually paying for your own course. This is completely wrong idea. In proportion to other international scholarship awards; APEMS sanction actually is a very generous scholarship offered very diplomatically, or rather I would say only those students who are well aware of it are delighted to take the chances. Those coming from poorer background are discouraged definitely just by the acronym and its name. I w...

Why I think the NC's decision to tobacco act is Right

The recent furor over the tobacco amendment bill, endorsed by the National Council, ignited a flurry of discussions across online forums in the country. Opinions varied widely, from staunch support for the legislation to vehement opposition, with a significant number of citizens observing the debate with a nuanced eye, pondering the broader implications of such a law. With eighteen votes in favor, the bill was set to be discussed in the National Assembly's summer session. For many smokers, this development was met with jubilation, yet it also sparked a lively discourse among the online community, offering a rich tapestry of perspectives to consider. Reflecting on the tobacco ban's impact in Bhutan reveals a complex picture. At both the individual and national levels, the ban's enforcement highlighted stark disparities within our society.

Winter in Tsirang

Arriving in Tsirang during the late weeks of July, I was unprepared for the chill that would later envelop the region. The initial humidity, accompanied by relentless sunshine, evoked vivid memories of my study days in Dhaka—days marked by sweltering heat interspersed with sudden rain showers. Yet, Tsirang, with its summer blooms and verdant grasslands reminiscent of the Swiss Alps, presented a striking contrast to the urban clamor of Dhaka. This place, steeped in beauty and communal warmth, offered a new chapter vastly different from my past experiences. Winter in Tsirang unveiled a different facet of life here. My colleagues, with their penchant for humor that treads the line between audacious and risqué, often find laughter in the least expected places. Despite their seemingly irreverent jokes, the camaraderie we share is a treasure, breathing life and laughter into even the coldest days. The routine of my mornings has evolved into a ritual of simplicity and reflection. Sunlight fil...
