                                                            Smell of land
It was perfect day for Roshani. She was going to present her dress designs on that day. Mohini her Mom was working hard to help her. After all it was good start for Roshani who was brought up just by Mohini. Mohini was signal mother. Her husband Pranit left her for another woman. Mohini married to Pranit against wishes of her family. She was so shocked when suddenly Pranit told her that he was not interested in her. Pranit was always nice to her. She never sensed that something was wrong. She never thought about any chances of his involvement with another woman that thought just never entered in her mind. She just had full faith on his love. She just felt adjusting with her busy schedule was her duty. She never sensed that one day her husband cheated her like that. But it happened. She had to raise her daughter on her own. She had to take help of her parents. It was so wrong. Her parents were never happy to deal with Roshani. It was burden for them. Specially since Mohini married against their wishes. They kept taunting her regarding her choice of marriage. Mohini wanted to have some help so she agreed to act properly with them. They kept saying things which were hurting both mother and daughter. Slowly she began to notice that Roshani was getting aloof from her. She tried to convince her that her father was not that bad. But it made that matter worst. Roshani started abusing her father on every point. It was really hard for Mohini. But then slowly Roshani began to get more concern about her future. During that time her husband started to ask for divorce. It was hard for Mohini. She tried to ask for alimony. She sensed that this money would be enough for her. But her husband didn't gave any thing. Finally she had to left him without much alimony. She started to get ahead with her life without much help from her husband at every point. She felt one thing only if she had married carefully. She was just thinking one thing. Her husband was so nice at beginning. But then she had accept end so finally after so many years and efforts her daughter Roshani became a dress designer. Mohini was helping her in every way to get ready. Roshani " Mom do it properly. Tie my dress in loose way." Mohini " I am trying... I am trying." Then Roshani smiled" Relax Mom. I know it is hard for you. But once I will become famous then I will keep maid for us. Then you don't have to do all those household duties. You can just sit and enjoy your life. I know Mom that you have worked hard for me. But you have to understand that it took time to get success. Only if my father was little bit useful or at least we could have able to get more alimony. But this is our luck. I am going to change it now. You just see Mom. Soon you will be on top of world." Mohini nodded happily. It was first time in so many years that Roshani talked with her in such a nice way while appreciating her work. Mohini just wished from heart only if Roshani would win. She was sure then Roshini would always be nice. Mohini just prayed to god to get right things for them. Roshani smiled and hugged Mohini and then went away.
          Mohini was so tense for whole night. She wanted to turn it out to be best. She just kept waiting. Finally she heard sound of car. She ran towards window. She looked out of window. She saw that Roshani came out of one car. She just kept watching when she sensed that something was different in Roshani. Roshani was looking happy so she got success. That was clear. But still Mohini was not happy. She ran towards door and opened it. She just kept waiting. It seemed to her hours before finally her daughter appeared. She felt that Roshani was not acting normal. She went near her on that moment she smelt alcohol. That smell was worst. She sensed that her daughter was drunk. Mohini " You are drunk?" Roshani smiled. "Come on Mom. I drank just little bit wine and you are acting as if I am so drunk as if I can't walk." "But?..." " No but Mom. We can't get ahead in life with so much morals. " " I just don't understand... " " Forget it Mom. Just remember one thing when Dad left you. No one help us. Even grandma and grandpa was not willing to help us. That is way of life. When we don't got money, no one need us. Think Mom if Dad was rich person do you feel your parents would have treated us this way? " Mohini didn't answer since she was not sure about it. Somewhere in her heart she felt her parents hated her marriage so much that they would have treated her same way. But if they had money then her parents might have scared of her. She didn't know correctly. But she felt one thing that if she had money then she would never need them on any point. She would have lived happily . But she had to bow before them every time. She had to say sorry to them many times for disobeying them. She had to forget her self respect so many times. That she just forgot word self respect in life. But Roshani was promising to bring money in house which would mean more happiness for her. She just wanted that money which would let her move with self respect. But her daughter had to drink for it. She didn't understood her thoughts. But she knew one thing. She could neither convince Roshani in this condition nor ask her reasons. Mohini "Okay ..Okay. It is too late now. You have to go to office tomorrow." "No need Mom. I got new job and I will join it after some days." Mohini was so confused but she just nodded her head. Then Roshani went in her room.Roshani was in her sense so she did every thing perfectly like changing and going to sleep. Mohini knew that she was drunk but not so much. Mohini decided that she would not say anything. She went to room. Mohini wanted to sleep but she just couldn't forget her daughter that way. She knew that drinking was common. That was one thing which every one would tell her if she decided to complain. But somewhere in her heart she knew that drinking was bad habit. It was putting big question on her upbringing of her daughter. But at same time she knew that many people would say that she was overreacting. Drinking was common on every day. She hated to accept it. She learned this many times from every where that drinking was bad habit but now it all seemed so different. She had to change her views. She was scared of that drinking. She just kept thinking about it. She just couldn't able to sleep until early morning.
        When Mohini woke up next day, Mohini felt that Roshani must be going to suffer due to heavy drinking and then she would quit it. She went out happily. She saw that Roshani was holding her head. Mohini smiled happily so Roshani started to feel sick. Mohini was sure that now she would speak about quitting alcohol. It all happened just as she imagined. Roshani started saying that it was worst. She would never try it again. But then suddenly Roshani remembered "Mom do you bring one hot coffee it will reduce it?" Mohini nodded. Mohini was so sure that Roshani would never try it again. But then in just few moments Roshani received a call. Then she immediately ran away. But Mohini heard clearly that their meeting would be in some hotel. Mohini was scared that it could be bar. That day went okay. But then after few days Roshani started drinking again. This time she was careful and didn't disturb her. Roshani slowly went inside her room without making much noise. But still Mohini could smell that alcohol. Mohini wanted to sleep but then she heard noise. She went running in Roshani's room. Roshani was dumped in her own cupboard. It was clear that alcohol did worst effect on her. But Still Roshani rejected Mohini's help when she tried to help her. Roshani "Mom I am fine. I just drank little bit to convince my friends that I drink." "But why did you have to do that?" "Mom to adjust with them. I can't live like you. Without money and husband. I need both. For that I have adjust with them. If I kept like that they will not like me. Mom I have to become one of them..." Then finally Roshani slept on her bed. Mohini helped her in sleeping properly. Then she went inside her room. Mohini was so upset. She wanted her daughter to be simple like her. But she knew that she could do that. Since her daughter Roshani wanted to move ahead in her own way. But when she saw her daugher drinking like this. She felt just one thing that this was not right. But she knew that no one would help her. She thought about going to her parents. But she knew that Roshani never liked her grandparents so that option would make matter worst. At one point Mohini was upset by this but on another point she was clearly seeing that Roshani was going ahead in life and career and making more and more friends. But still Mohini had doubt if those friends were really helpful for Roshani or they would just take her on wrong path. But from that day every day Roshani was just going ahead with her career. She was getting introduced with many stars and celebrity who were making her more and more famous. Slowly one day Roshani even create one small bar in her room so that she could serve her famous clients and friends in home only. Mohini hated it so much specially that smell of alcohol and then Roshani's talking. She could hear that Roshani was no longer that Roshani but still Roshani was no longer blaming her for destroying her future by marrying such a wrong man. Roshani was happy with what she done. Every day Roshani just expected one thing from her which was worst for Mohini that was to come before her friends and clients with smile. Mohini had to act like a perfect mother who had created a famous designer like Roshani. Most of time when those people came they started drinking. Mohini tried to excuse herself when that drinking started. But many people tried to stop her. It was making matter worse for Mohini day by day. But she had to tolerate it all for her daughter Roshani. Slowly it was becoming worse for Mohini.
         Mohini just hated to move around that house which was getting better and better with perfect interior. Everyone was congratulating her for her success in raising a perfect daughter. Roshani had become matter of pride in everyone's eyes. It was so upsetting to every one. After all Roshani was getting so much success. Now her name was also started coming on television also. Every one was calling her celebrity. She was someone who was bigger in everyone's eyes. A success which must be treated by pride. Now every one had started inviting Mohini in their house for function. She became a mother of famous designer. She should had sensed pride but still something was missing. She felt so sad. She was doing every thing with smile still on each day that smell of alcohol began to irritate her. But then slowly she stopped smelling it. She didn't felt any thing was wrong until one day while cooking. She sensed that she just didn't able to bake cake. She didn't understand that why didn't her cake was smelling like old times. She knew that now a days most of the cooking was done by her cook. Roshani kept one cook who would cook every style of food. Since there were many guests who were from other countries Roshani had to keep every thing ready. Mohini just kept away from kitchen. At beginning she was happy about it. But now a days she also wanted sometimes to cook something. So she went in kitchen today. She was cooking that cake but didn't smell it. She was upset then suddenly her cook appear. Cook "Wow Madam you must have cooked wonderful cake. It's smell is spread in whole house. I heard from Roshani Madam that you are expert in cooking. But now I can see it." "You can smell it. Great. I just can't." "What? Then you must be having cold." "No. I don't think so. I just don't feel that way." "Sometimes you don't feel Madam but you are having. I am sure. It will be okay in few days. Now let me confirm you. That your cake smells wonderful." Mohini was so happy.She smiled and said "Thanks." Then that cake served to all. Each and every guest admired it. Roshani was on top of the world. She wanted her Mother to look perfect. Roshani started telling many things about Mother. Roshani presented Mohini in such a way as if she was so great on every point only her mistake was to marry a wrong man. Roshani was talking just like her grandparents so even that admiration was hurting Mohini. She smiled and went inside her room. Mohini no longer felt happy with that admiration in life. She was getting upset on every point. But she knew that Roshani was winner and she was right. She had to understand every thing that Roshini told her. She had to understand Roshani was so great on every point. She felt so much sadness from inside. She had to understand that she was totally dependent on Roshani who was treating her with full respect. She might blame her for her wrong choice of husband but after all Roshani suffered due to it. Since she chose wrong person Roshani never had right father. Roshani was not abusing her like her parents.She was nice to her. She had to ignore Roshani's small habit. She tried to convince herself that it was not big mistake just small thing.At every point she felt one thing that she had to adjust.
        Mohini ignored it at beginning but then one day Roshani came home with flowers. Roshani told her that she got some one special. Mohini was so happy. Then that man was introduced. Mohini felt that he was good but still she could sense that he never told her family to quit alcohol. Mohini just wanted to keep Roshani away from alcohol. But it was not going to happen if she married to that man, But Mohini knew that no one was going to hear her view so she just started to understand one thing. She had to adjust. But then at that moment first time she sensed that she didn't even smell those flowers. Then Roshani came near her. Roshani showed her perfumes. Roshani "I want to gift a perfume to my boyfriend. Will you help me Mom?" Mohini nodded. She felt that those flowers might had mild smell but those perfume had strong smell. Mohini went out with Roshani. They went to perfume shop. That salesman began to show them many perfume but Mohini was so disturbed by one thought that she just could not smell anything. Even in shop of perfume she had hardly able to smell any thing. She couldn't believe that. Roshani was showing her many smells. She was asking again and again which one was great. Finally Mohini said " I can't smell any thing." "What?" Roshani was so shocked. Roshani took Mohini out of shop. When Mohini was standing in perfume shop, She didn't smell anything. She sensed for first time. She didn't smell any thing at all. It was so shocking for her. Roshani "Mom tell me what happened?" Then she told her step by step. Roshani" My god, we have to go to doctor immediately." Mohini "I just don't know..""Don't know? This is serious Mom. We must have to go to doctor." Then Roshani immediately took her to doctor. After that Mohini's round to Doctors started. They just kept going from one doctor to another doctor. It was getting worst on every step of life. They did many tests on her. But in every test she looked so perfect. She just didn't able to smell. Finally one doctor suggested them. Doctor "I feel just one thing that it could be mental." Roshani was shocked. "Your mother had suffered many problems in life. It could have effected her mentally." Roshani looked confused but she agreed. Mohini didn't say any thing. She did just as per Roshani's wishes. When they went to psychiatrist then she started discussing about it. That psychiatrist talked with her in details. Then psychiatrist studying her reports. Finally he told Roshani to go out. Then psychiatrist started talking with Mohini step by step. She told him every thing. All her pain came out. Finally psychiatrist asked her "so you hated alcohol." "Yes." "You dislike it's smell so much that you began to just wanted to forget it. That lead to this problem." "I don't understand." "You hate that alcohol so you wnat to forget it's smell. So you started pretending that you don't smell it. Then slowly you didn't able to smell any thing. You started to force yourself to take away that smell." Mohini was so upset by this. "I can't able to do that by may brain." "Yes you can." Slowly psychiatrist explained her that she was suffering from conversion disorder in which people feel neurological symptoms like blindness, paralysis. She hated her daughter's drinking habit so she developed this for adjusting with it. Mohini was confused by it at beginning but then step by step psychiatrist convinced her that she could change her ways. She should walk in her own way. Then  Mohini started living in her own world. She started enjoying her gardening hobby. Slowly she began to smell every thing. That smell was of her new life. Now Roshani was grown up. Mohini was no longer responsible for anything so she start living her life in her own way. It was with smell of land and flowers.
