Samir "Come on. Your Mom is fine now." "What?" Sheena was so confused. She was sure that it was all a bad dream after all her Mom was in mental hospital and she just hoped that she would stay there. But she never once thought that one day she might come back. Sheena "Mom is not coming back?" " Not now. But she will come back after some time." "After some time? How much time?" Suddenly Sheena just wanted to run away from that house. She was not going to stay in same house with her Mom. She was a mad woman. She didn't want to share roof with her. She didn't want to stay with that mad woman. She still remembered one fact. She remembered how much insults she had suffered due to her. She started remembering every day after that how did people used to observe her. All her friends just vanished from her life. She was all alone in class. Some of her friends were scared of her and some just started hating her. She had to work hard to get over it. She didn't want that woman again in her life. She wanted to live normal life. But now her Dad mentioned it. She sensed one thing. Her Mom was coming back. After all she could stay there for entire life. Mad people came back. But she had heard some of them were just mad and hurt other people in house. She didn't want her Mom to come back. She started crying. Samir kept patting her and telling her that her Mom was fine. But she knew that it was all lie. She just kept crying from her heart for her ruined life.
        Sheena just didn't able to sleep that night. She was so tense. Finally alarm rang and she got to go to school. She was teenager now. Life was never easy for her. Every one kept mentioning her mother from time to time. Her Mom was worst patch for her life. She just wanted to forget her. But now if her Mom came back then every thing would turned in worst way. She was sure every one from school started treating her in more worst way. She had to knew when her worst dream was becoming truth. Sheena "When will Mom come back?" Samir "Today.""What? You said some days. I want her to stay away from me. In fact I want to go in some hostel. I just...""Relax. You know it very well that you can't do that. You have to finish your studies and she is your mother. You can't just shut your doors on her!!" "Ohh!!Really!! Did you remember that day?" "SHEENA!! Don't you dare to mention it again." Sheena started laughing bitterly. Sheena "Dad you can force me to shut up. But when whole world will start talking about it...""Now it had happen long time ago. No one remember her.""That's what you think it was not that far away from people's mind when they saw her then they will remember it in just few moments." "No it will not happen. You are creating it with your imagination. It will not happen again." Sheena " Just wait and watch Dad." Sheena said it as if some threat and went inside to get ready for school. Samir was so shocked. His daugher was hating her mother from heart. He knew that it all happened in very wrong way. But he also knew that it was not Rina's fault. He loved Rina from heart. Rina took all that treatment which was needed. He knew that she was cured now. He even confirmed with psychiatrist about it. Rina was even not suffering from mania for many months. She was fine now. But Sheena was not ready to accept it. Sheena was just stood against her mother. He still remembered that day.It was shocking as well as embarrassing for him. But he got over it and he wanted Sheena to do same thing. At beginning he many times tried to convince Sheena to come to visit Rina with him. She never agreed. Rina just kept asking about her. It was all so wrong. Rina did so many things for Sheena. Rina never thought about herself. She always put Sheena before her. But now her daughter wanted her to go out of her life. Samir knew that Rina even accept it but Samir wanted his wife. He had insisted to her that she must came back to him. He forced her to come back. He didn't agree with Sheena. After all Rina's sickness was just like some physical sickness. Sheena had to accept it and stay with her mother. It was not as if he was suggesting her to stay with her mother who was having some problem. Sheena was lucky that her mother was cured but still she was not ready to stay with her. But Samir was not ready to accept it. He had decided just one thing that Sheena had to learn to adjust with her mother. Samir looked at clock for time. He smiled. Finally his days in kitchen were over. Now Rina would cook and he would enjoy a normal life.He didn't to do both job of Mom and Dad. He just had to act like Dad. He was feeling so happy by reduction of pressure. He just needed Rina once again to become in charge of household and he wanted to get rid of his extra duties. He smiled after all it was finally happening. He just threw away his apron. After all he was not going to need it on every day now.
        When Samir went to Rina, she was so happy. As soon as Rina came back, she just took control of that house. She started first cleaning. Then she went in kitchen and started cooking. She began to do everything so perfectly as if she was working every day. She had to search for all. But she just managed to understand which ingredient was where and then she started cooking. It was so shocking. She managed to make that flat a house in just few second. Samir smiled at her. He just missed her every day. He knew that for few days Sheena might want to stay away from her but then she would once again fall in love with her Mom. Any way Samir sensed one thing. He had warn Rina about it. He went to Rina and told her everything. She looked upset at beginning. But it seemed as if psychiatrist had already prepared her for this so she nodded. She told Samir that she would handle it. Samir smiled happily. He felt him half work was done. At least Rina was cooperating with him. He felt so pleasant so they both got ready to receive Sheena. Then they heard door bell. Samir was so tense. Sheena was relaxed at beginning. She had almost forgotten about her Mom. But then she noticed her. Rina was smiling but in few seconds Sheena suddenly began to remember it all. She just didn't able to move. She began to see it all again. She wanted to scream but she couldn't. She just remembered Rina's worst look. She was looking so horrible to Sheena. Then she suddenly ran in her room. She just locked her in room. Samir and Rina started running after her. Sheena "Tell that lady to go out of home." Rina was so sad but she said "I will go.." Samir screamed "No. You are not going any where. I need you to take care of this house. Sheena are you ready to cook and clean this house?" "What?" "Your Mom does this all." "Then why don't you keep maid?" Rina felt so shocked and hurt. But Samir was so angry. Samir "Then why should I keep you for wasting my money?" Rina "Please relax. Let me talk. Will you listen to me sweetheart? I will not come near you. Just come out. I will stay out of your sight." "No..No..I want you out of this house." Samir was so angry that he just pushed that door strongly and he managed to open it. Sheena had throw all things around room. Many things were broken and spoiled. Many things were damaged. Rina was so shocked to see this. She first time sensed that some thing was wrong with her daughter. She was reacting too much. But Rina decided to give her time. Rina "Samir you take her outside. I will clean the room." Sheena was so scared of her that she just ran out of that room. Samir followed her. Then Rina heard lot of arguments from inside. She knew that Samir was right. Rina had to stay there. If she went out then Sheena would never let her come back and Samir really needed her. She saw his health was effected. He did all work in house as well as office. He needed her. He had supported her in her sickness. She was going to support him now. Samir came inside. Samir "She said that you can stay if you stay out of her sight." Rina just nodded but she sensed one thing that some thing was totally wrong with her daughter. But she just didn't claim it now.
        Rina began to manage whole house while staying away from Sheena. She missed her daughter but she had her husband with her. She was happy with Samir. But Sheena was getting worst on every day. Rina had noticed that she just kept searching for Rina around house. She just walked around house slowly as if some lion was going to attack her. It was so wrong. Sheena was not behaving normally. If she hated her Mom, she could had ignored her. But she was looking scared of her. Rina was always careful to stay away from her. But still she was getting so nervous. Every day when she came home, she just went in her room and locked herself. She never came out on table for lunch. She just called from room and ordered that she must put plate of food outside door. Then she waited for few seconds then she created small crack in door and took food inside room. Then she didn't open room until she finally finished eating food. She just took her plate out of room. But she first looked out. She carefully saw that no one was there. Then she opened door and then she kept that plate of food outside. It was so strange. Rina sensed that she was not normal. But she knew that if she claimed it then Sheena might convince Samir that it was Rina's madness. Rina just kept staying away from her. But one day suddenly one of Sheena's friend came home when Sheena was absent. Reena came out. She looked scared at first but when Rina chatted with her normally. She got relaxed. She told Reena about her difficulty in studies which she wanted to solved with Sheena. Rina knew how to solve it. Since Sheena was gone to class, Rina thought that it would be better if she explained it. Rina explained it to that girl. She learnt it all then she said thanks. At beginning when snack was offered Sheena's friend rejected it but when Rina explained problem. Sheena's friend sensed that she was perfectly normal. Then she took that snack and thanked her once again. Rina was glad that she treated Sheena's friend in perfect way. But when Sheena came, she first locked herself in room and then started calling her. Rina "What happened?" "Why did you talk to my friend?" "She came..""You must not have opened the door. Now they gossiping about you even my teacher wanted to talk with you. You are new attraction for our school like some bear. Now go and talk with my teacher. Tell her all about yourself and your treatment. You will be new exhibit soon instead of frog they will keep you." This was too much for Rina. Rina "I will open door since this is also my house. I took her in as guest in house. I will not talk with you. But I will talk to your teacher since she have more understanding than you. Have you ever realised? Some thing is wrong with you not with me. Your friend was nice with me. Your teacher is ready to talk with me. You are only person who is scared of me," "Shut up. You mad woman.." Then she started swearing. Rina sensed that she had talked too much. But it was gone over the hill for her. Rina just went away from door. That day Sheena didn't eat lunch made by Rina. Rina was scared that she would not eat any thing. But she ordered pizza and ate it. Rina sensed one thing that Sheena was just creating scene. But then she also observed that Sheena was really scared of her. Then Sheena's teacher called Rina. Rina discussed all about her illness to her. Her teacher wanted to discuss it personally so she decided to meet her. Rina was happy that at least Sheena's teacher was accepting her. When Samir came Sheena called him in room and created big issue out of this, but Samir told Rina that she must go in Sheena's school and clear every thing about her illness. He felt that awareness was necessary. Rina was so happy to have understanding husband like him. She just wished Sheena should develop at least little bit understanding.
       Soon Rina arranged for her meeting with Sheena's teacher. She told her that she was suffering from Delirious mania. It happened in depression which was serious one. In that mental problem she used experience mood changes. She was upset sometimes but she never had such a attack. But it was quiet serious disease. She had to be cured by psychiatrist who had given her perfect treatment which involved many drugs etc. She told her that it was hard for her. But still she was cured with help of her psychiatrist and Samir who always cooperated her in every way. Sheena's teacher talked with her for hours. Finally that teacher liked Rina's recovery so much that she decided that they would call whole school and Rina should give speech before all. It would really help them all. After all they had seen Rina in her worst state, they must see her in her best state. Rina was scared but still she agreed. She wanted to prove Sheena that she was fine. But then that teacher arranged it immediately. Then day was decided. Whole time Sheena was in school. But that teacher phoned principal who announced it in school. Sheena heard it. Her all friends were congratulating her. But she was so scared. She started shivering. She began to imagine all that happened in past. She was so scared. She started shivering like leaf. When her friends noticed it, they called teacher who checked her fever which was high. She was just repeating one line. "No..NO she can't..she can't.." They felt that it was just chatting due to high fever. She had so high fever that Doctor advised to take her in hospital. Rina and Samir came running. They did all tests on her. Slowly her fever was reduced but they didn't find the cause. Whole time Rina kept waiting outside.She never came in. Finally one day Doctor asked the cause. Samir told him every thing. Doctor "Mr. Samir don't you understood that your daughter is also suffering from mental problem?" "What? She had problem like her Mom.."Rina was so upset by this. But Doctor interrupted " No..No..She was just suffering from post traumatic symptoms which must had happened due to her mother's mental problem. She had seen it. That must had affected her mind. She was so scared that her Mom would do some thing wrong again that she started having fever due to that stress." "So I will not go to that speech." "Now that is not solution Mrs. Rina!!You have kept away from her. But does it solve her problem? Take her to psychiatrist." Samir "But she will never agree. She will just blame it on Rina." "Don't worry. I send one from hospital. He will convince her. She will agree to treatment." Samir and Rina both smiled happily. Then slowly Sheena's treatment started. At beginning she didn't cooperated but then slowly she began to understand her problem. Then step by step she started looking positively at Rina. Psychiatrist helped them a lot to improve relationship between mother and daughter. Finally Sheena accepted her mother and she even got ready to see her speech. When Rina explained every part of her problem and every section of her treatment before all, Sheena felt proud of her mother. When Rina told that how did Samir supported her on every step and never turned back on her. There was tears in her eyes. Even Samir was crying but he tried to hide it. She was one of the many people who clapped for Rina and Samir. But for Rina and Samir they had just one clap that was clapping of their daughter. It was happiest moment for them in world. Their family was finally turn into a normal family.
