Working hard
Tarun was working on his project. It was perfect day. He was happy to get over with his work. He was happy but then suddenly he looked around. He sensed that his house was too small. He needed more room in his house. But then he sensed that he couldn't afford it. He didn't got that much money. He felt so sad. He was working so hard for so many days. But he never managed get big house. He looked out. He saw those big building all those wonderful flats. He felt so upset when his Mom entered. Mom " Tarun your breakfast." "Mom I am such useless person." He began to cry. His Mom was so shocked. Mom " What happened? Why are you so upset?" "Mom can't you see? I have not even got enough money to buy a nice house." "But you are too young.." "Mom stop giving excuses. I just want to stop this all." Tarun went in bed and just slept. He started looking at their ceiling. He was looking so depressed. His Mom wanted to console him. Mom " It is all just beginning. Every thing will get fine. You just need some time to understand it." Tarun didn't gave any answer to his Mom. He just kept staring at walls. He just didn't want to take his eyes away from wall. He just wanted to sleep like that on bed. He just didn't even wanted to answer his Mom. It was so frustrating. He was working so long still he got nothing. No one even appreciated him. His work proved to be useless for whole time. He started to get bonus but what was that bonus nothing before his expenses. His father always kept taunting him about it. He wanted to get many things which were too expensive. He never managed to earn enough money. But he never felt so sad until now. He just kept looking at every point with one thought. He didn't want to move. Tarun's Mom was so confused. She knew that Tarun didn't get as much money as he want but it was just start. He needed to work hard to get more money and for long time. But strange thing was until now Tarun used to say same thing by himself. But this time he was suddenly so depressed. He never acted this way. He used to feel hope in life. But this time he was acting so much depressed. His Mom looked at him then she felt that he might be too tired due to work. He might get over it after some time. His Mom went out of room. She started cooking. She was busy when she heard Tarun's mobile. She thought that he would took it after some time. But it just kept ringing. Finally she took it. He was just sleeping on bed. She was so upset by this. She just didn't understand. It was Tarun's Boss. It was clear that he was angry due to his sudden disappearance. "Where is Tarun? Why didn't he come to office?" He was clearly too angry. He wanted answer. But Tarun was sleeping there like some coma patient. His eyes were open but they didn't have much spirit. He seemed like a body which was without spirit. It was so strange. Tarun's Mom never saw him this way. Then she thought that it was not right. She had not found him this way for long time. He was upset same way during his college days. It was due to death of his grand father. He was his best buddy. They always used to sit every day with each other and used to discuss many things with each other. He was so attached to him that he started sitting like that but it applied just in junior college. He managed to get over it in senior college. He just made himself busy. His Mom sensed that he had to go to work. But she couldn't. At least not on that day so she said to Boss " Actually Tarun is having fever." "What? Do he went to Doctor?" " No. I am going to call Doctor now." Boss " Good. Call me and tell me what happened." Boss managed to disconnect mobile. Tarun's Mom was so upset now. She didn't understand what she supposed to do. She lied. She couldn't produce a Doctor who said that Tarun was sick for month. She knew that it would not be for just few days. Such depression might continue. He would not go in office in few days and what about other signs of fever. She was so confused. She decided that she had to call her husband now.
When Tarun's Mom called his Dad, his Dad was too busy. Dad " Why are you calling me now? I can't do any thing from here. Can I?" "Sorry but I just want to tell you." " I know..I know.. I just got too much upset due to office work. Tell me what happened?" Then Tarun's Mom told him all. Tarun's Dad " This son is just burden for us. People expect their sons to earn for them and this boy is just reducing my earning. He is my biggest expenditure." "How could you talk like that about your own son. Don't you feel any thing?" " No I don't I just need a break from him. I just suggest you to tell whole truth to his Boss so that he could choose another person. " She was so shocked from heart. He was his father he needed to sense what would if Tarun lost this job. " How can you act like that? Sorry. I will not call you again. " She disconnected call. She was so shocked from soul on every point when he talked he just showed as if his son was burden. When Tarun was born, he was so happy. He was used to take every credit of Tarun's good work. At beginning Tarun was just topper in every thing. He had that energy which no one could defeat. At that time his Dad used to be his greatest supporter. But then slowly he started to get attached to his grand father since his Dad didn't had time. He started telling him every thing. She knew that Tarun wanted his Dad but he never had time. Same thing happened today. His Dad was once again busy. But then her mobile rang again. It was her husband. She took his call. Dad " Sorry. I will talk to Boss and take leave." " No need. He is just my son you never need to take any responsibility. Even if you are his father still you don't need to take responsibility of this son. Since you don't want him." She started crying. Dad " I am sorry. I said it all in anger. I just felt so upset that he might loose this job. We all saw how hard he worked for it. I just want him to be normal at this moment. Any way I must accept it as god's will so I am sorry. I will come soon." Tarun's Mom smiled. She was glad that his Dad sensed his mistake and coming home. She decided that she would wait for him then call Doctor. She was so upset. She sat near Tarun and started talking. " Tarun what happened just tell?" " Mom I don't want to move." " But your Boss called you and he said you must have to come." She was about to speak ahead but she sensed that Tarun was not interested in chatting any more. He just wanted to look at ceiling as if his whole world depend on it. She was so upset. She kept waiting. Finally door bell rang. She ran to open door. It was not her husband. It was her neighbor. She smiled. " Can you give me some sugar? I will return it." Tarun's Mom knew that she was nice girl. She was staying in next flat for days. But at this moment she just wanted to get rid of her. Tarun's Mom " Sure." She literally ran in kitchen and started searching for sugar. She tried hard to open lid but it just couldn't. She was so frustrated. Finally she sensed tap on shoulder. She screamed and that tin fall from hand. It was just her neighbor but whole sugar was fallen on ground. Neighbor " My god I am so sorry. I never want to scare you." She started cleaning it. But Tarun's Mom stopped her. Tarun's Mom gave her sugar. " I will clean it. You must go home. Your kids will be coming soon." "You are right. Once again I am sorry." Then she ran away from there. She needed to cook some thing for kids. Tarun's Mom was so glad. She went back and closed door. Then she went in kitchen. She saw all that mess. First time she was glad to see that mess. She needed to keep herself busy in some thing until Tarun's Dad come. She smiled and started working hard. She knew that she had to take away every dirt from that kitchen. It was so hard for her. She just wanted her son to be okay. She didn't want to start every thing from beginning. She remembered all those worst days. She started praying to god and this time it would be over more quickly. Only if he get normal again. But sometimes even when he get normal. He get so strange that she felt scared of her own son. She didn't want to remember it. She just decided that it would not happen this time. She kept polishing her floor. She wanted it to be perfect and clean.
Tarun's Mom sensed one thing from mind. Her life was not going to be easy. Last time every one showed sympathy due to his grandfather's death but this time there was no cause. Every one was going to look at this matter in strange way. In fact she was shocked by this herself. She never expected this trouble to return. It was before her now. She began to feel that every thing was returning to back to that moment only. She just didn't understand how did it happened. At this moment they were not suffering from any crisis. It was so strange. He suddenly began to have that strange depression. She sensed one thing that things where not moving in right way. She wanted to help him. But she couldn't. She felt it from her heart. It was so wrong. He didn't seem like normal person. He was sleeping for hours. Finally door bell rang. Tarun's Dad came home. Dad " Where is he?" " Sleeping in his room. He became depressed again." " I just don't understand what is wrong with that boy? Few days ago he was just fine." " But we need to do some thing now." Tarun's Dad went in his room. He started forcing Tarun to sit. But Tarun just kept looking at him with blank expression. Finally Tarun sat. Dad " Why are you not going to office?" " I just don't want to move. I feel so sick." His Dad checked his temperature. He was not having fever. Dad " What is happening to you?" " I feel as if I can't move my hand. It is made of stone." His Dad smiled. " Ohh I think you over did your work. You are just weak. You need some days rest then you will be fine." Tarun just kept looking ahead. Dad " You can sleep now." Tarun slowly went to sleep again. His movements were so slow as it moving his hands and legs were burden to him. He began to move towards bed slowly. He moved in slow way. He started to move his body. But his movement were too slow. His Mom noticed it. She felt so tense. She just felt so scared from mind. She knew that it was not just for few moments. She sensed that it was going to happen again. She knew that it would have effect on him. She sensed it that his Dad was totally wrong. She knew that he would be okay in few days. She started telling his Dad as soon as they went out of room. " It is happening again. I am scared that he would start to act in strange way like last time." " Nonsense. Stop putting those strange idea in his head." " I never mentioned it before him. I was just telling you." " No need to tell me. He just need rest for few days. I am going to my office again and no need to call Doctor. He just need rest." Then his Dad went away. Tarun slept that way for whole time. From that days Tarun didn't move around much. He just did basic things like eating etc and remaining time. He just kept looking in unknown world. He was acting completely in strange way. Nothing was normal. But his Dad kept insisting that he was normal and he accepted it. Tarun just nodded to every thing. This kept happening for one month. He was nothing but a robot. Then suddenly one day he woke up. He was full of spirit. He ran to computer. He saw that he needed to do lot of work. He immediately called Boss who was about to keep some one else on job. But he convinced him. He started working hard. He called his Mom and told her to bring breakfast. He was working so hard. He just didn't want to waste time on talking. He talked so fast that his Mom got confused. Tarun " Mom just bring any thing it is fine. Go..go..do it fast." His Mom was glad but confused from her mind. She liked this change but still she felt that some thing was wrong. But his Dad smiled and said to his Mom " Didn't I tell you he is fine? But you never believe me. You are stupid woman but never seem to understand it." His Mom was hurt but she didn't said any thing. She didn't want Tarun to hear her fear. She knew that it would effect his attitude towards him. She just gave forced smile and ran in kitchen to cook breakfast for all.
Tarun started doing every thing in fast way. He started doing every thing with such a speed that even his Dad was confused. He just kept running around without stopping. Then he went out. He started to screaming on Mom.His Mom immediately came out. He ate it so fast. It was really strange then he just ran out with his bag. He said even bye in such hurry that they didn't even understand his words. His Mom " Some thing is wrong with our son. I am telling you." His Dad was confused now. Dad " I feel that you are right." "So you also sensed it. He was moving in strange way. He is acting so wrong. I mean it. You need to sense it. " " He was moving too fast." " I just can't even able to hear his words. They are moving out so fast." " Now relax. He must be in hurry regarding some thing." " In such hurry that he couldn't say a thing. Yesterday he was just sleeping today he was in such hurry." "Relax now. It is not some thing serious. He will be fine when he would come back." His Mom nodded. But she sensed one thing that last time his problem was not because of his grand father's death. It was something totally different. She felt so scared from heart. She knew that what was going to happen next. Tarun was going to run around house without stopping for movement. He might started getting excited even on small thing. She just felt one thing that he just acted in right way in his office. Tarun entered in office. He was full of energy. He just wanted to work and work. He didn't even sat on seat in train. He just kept moving around like restless person. Finally one person make complaint " Why are you pushing me like this sit on some seat?" " But I don't want. I just feel so restless. I was to reach faster. I just feel that...feel that this train is moving so slow. I need to move faster and faster on each time." That person looked at him in strange way. He just sensed one thing that he might be talking to fast. Another fellow " Friend go slow." He wanted to move slowly. But he just kept moving. Then another fellow screamed " You Idiot. Do you feel this train belong to your father? I say stand still. Or I will teach you a lesson." " I can't." He just kept moving, That fellow got so angry. He tried to punch him. But Tarun was so fast. He just sat down. Then suddenly he felt his anger was at peak. He just started hitting that fellow. Other people tried to stop him. But he was clearly hard to control. Then finally he managed to control himself. He went to other side of train and kept walking. Then after some time Police came. They took him out of that crowded train. They started asking questions. Even while answering them Tarun just kept moving his feet. As if he was jogging in that train. Police " What is wrong with you? Why don't you stop for few moment?" " I just don't. I want to go fast. I just don't want to stop. I just want to stop all this energy but it keep floating in me." That another man " He hit me because I tried to stop." " No..no..he punched me first..and then.." " Relax go slow. People told me that this man started fight but you don't need to hit back. Any way I consider it as self defense. But trouble is that why can't you sit still even now." " I don't know. I just kept moving like that. I tried hard to stay still but I can't." Police looked so confused. Then another officer " I feel that we throw this another fellow in jail but this one need a Doctor. Something is wrong with him." Police " I think he might be pretending. I just teach him a lesson." "no no I am not pretending." He said all words in such confused fashion that no one understood it. He was going too fast. He wanted to call his parents. But Police snatched mobile out of his hand. Police " Call Doctor." He just kept running around in that Police station like mad person. Every officer was sure that he was not normal. Finally Doctor came. He checked him but he was not even still during it. This was worst for him. He didn't want to keep moving in Police station. He was crying whole time. He tried to sit in chair in few moments he was moving around like some rocket. He was so strange. He just couldn't stop on any point. He started moving around. He didn't stop. He slowly got so frustrated. He couldn't control himself. He suddenly wanted to end it all. He began to threw away things around. He just wanted those guns to finish it all. He tried to grab it. It was worst scene for Police. Finally a Police hit him on head from behind. Then he fell unconscious. Same time Tarun's mobile rang. Police " Hello."" Tarun are you alright? I called you since you don't look well today." Police saw it was number saved in name of Mom." Hello are you Tarun's Mom?" "Yes." "He is in Police station. He even managed to create scene in Police station so we are taking him to hospital." " What? Can I come there?" "Sure. We will close this case on ground of mental trouble. We will glad if you come and take responsibility. We can't keep him out like that." His Mom so scared. " We will come as soon as possible." She started calling his Dad. But he couldn't took it. She sensed that she needed to just go. She started for searching for address on google map. She was so scared but still she went there.
Tarun's Mom went in reception. She told her about her son. That woman didn't seem to be interested that much. But when Tarun's Mom kept insisting, she finally asked other and showed her room. She ran to that room. Inspector was waiting outside. His Mom came near Inspector. " I am Mom of Tarun." " Ohh actually Doctor is checking him." Then Inspector told him everything. She was so confused. She never thought that it would turn in such worst way. Inspector " And before calling you. I received call from some one Mr. Varma. He must be his Boss. I had to tell him whole truth and I am sorry to inform you. That he fired him. He send his payment in your house by cheque." She started crying slowly now. Tarun finally lost his job. On that point her phone rang. She told every thing to her husband. Then she sat outside. While Police went away after taking one sign from her. She was sitting there for long time. Finally Doctor called her " Your son is suffering from Bipolar Depression. It was on mania episode. In bipolar patient felt swing of mood on every time. Some times they felt as if they had lost every thing. They just kept sleeping for weeks then after some time they suddenly began to get too energetic. When they get too energetic, they might get mania attack like Tarun got today. Did this happen before?" " Yes when his grand father died, he kept sitting for days then one day he suddenly began to work hard on every thing. He started looking around and moving so fast. One day he started suddenly screaming on one boy of school because he was telling him to slow down. It was so big issue. Principal called us. But we all thought that it was just due to his grand father's death so after that no such incidence." "Actually not bigger one. But he was getting moody to much now a days. One day he was to travel around whole world then he plan and in few weeks he said that he tired even to took tea cup in his hand." "So you don't feel any thing was wrong.""Actually.." Before Tarun's Mom could complete her sentence. His Dad came inside " What happened?" Psychiatrist told him every thing step by step. His Dad " It was my mistake. She was telling me again and again that some thing is wrong but I just prefer to ignore it. Can you cure it?" " Actually I can't remove it but we can teach him to handle it." Dad " So it is impossible to handle." "Now don't feel so scared. It is not such a big deal. We can handle it. He can live with it. Many people do. Just he had to take some medicines and have to come for therapy. I heard that he lost his job just now." His Dad looked at his Mom with shocked expressions. His Mom nodded. His Dad started crying. Psychiatrist " Now relax. I will help you with every thing. But you all need to cooperate with me. First I want to you to keep him in hospital for few days. Then we will understand his problem. Slowly we can cure him. He might not become perfect. But he will learn to handle his world. He can keep his job for time. He must be kept getting fired from his job." His Dad " So true. We are really tired of this. He never managed to stuck on one job. He took some job and worked hard for it then suddenly one day he just started resting in home and then he managed to find new one. But old story repeat again." "Don't worry I will handle it." This parents nodded. They just needed help. Then his Dad asked Psychiatrist about his fees. It was large amount. But they knew that they didn't have option. They tried every thing. It was their last resort so they nodded. Then they saw their son who was sleeping. They nodded and went in his room with one hope that he would be fine this time. Then suddenly Tarun's eyes opened. Tarun " Mom..Dad.." His Dad " Don't worry son. This Psychiatrist will cure you." Tarun looked at Doctor who smiled back at him.

He just didn't want to waste time on talking. He talked so fast that his Mom got confused. Tarun " Mom just bring any thing it is fine. Go..go..do it fast." His Mom was glad but confused from her mind. She liked this change but still she felt that some thing was wrong. But his Dad smiled and said to his Mom " Didn't I tell you he is fine? But you never believe me. You are stupid woman but never seem to understand it." His Mom was hurt but she didn't said any thing. She didn't want Tarun to hear her fear. She knew that it would effect his attitude towards him. She just gave forced smile and ran in kitchen to cook breakfast for all.
Tarun started doing every thing in fast way. He started doing every thing with such a speed that even his Dad was confused. He just kept running around without stopping. Then he went out. He started to screaming on Mom.His Mom immediately came out. He ate it so fast. It was really strange then he just ran out with his bag. He said even bye in such hurry that they didn't even understand his words. His Mom " Some thing is wrong with our son. I am telling you." His Dad was confused now. Dad " I feel that you are right." "So you also sensed it. He was moving in strange way. He is acting so wrong. I mean it. You need to sense it. " " He was moving too fast." " I just can't even able to hear his words. They are moving out so fast." " Now relax. He must be in hurry regarding some thing." " In such hurry that he couldn't say a thing. Yesterday he was just sleeping today he was in such hurry." "Relax now. It is not some thing serious. He will be fine when he would come back." His Mom nodded. But she sensed one thing that last time his problem was not because of his grand father's death. It was something totally different. She felt so scared from heart. She knew that what was going to happen next. Tarun was going to run around house without stopping for movement. He might started getting excited even on small thing. She just felt one thing that he just acted in right way in his office. Tarun entered in office. He was full of energy. He just wanted to work and work. He didn't even sat on seat in train. He just kept moving around like restless person. Finally one person make complaint " Why are you pushing me like this sit on some seat?" " But I don't want. I just feel so restless. I was to reach faster. I just feel that...feel that this train is moving so slow. I need to move faster and faster on each time." That person looked at him in strange way. He just sensed one thing that he might be talking to fast. Another fellow " Friend go slow." He wanted to move slowly. But he just kept moving. Then another fellow screamed " You Idiot. Do you feel this train belong to your father? I say stand still. Or I will teach you a lesson." " I can't." He just kept moving, That fellow got so angry. He tried to punch him. But Tarun was so fast. He just sat down. Then suddenly he felt his anger was at peak. He just started hitting that fellow. Other people tried to stop him. But he was clearly hard to control. Then finally he managed to control himself. He went to other side of train and kept walking. Then after some time Police came. They took him out of that crowded train. They started asking questions. Even while answering them Tarun just kept moving his feet. As if he was jogging in that train. Police " What is wrong with you? Why don't you stop for few moment?" " I just don't. I want to go fast. I just don't want to stop. I just want to stop all this energy but it keep floating in me." That another man " He hit me because I tried to stop." " No..no..he punched me first..and then.." " Relax go slow. People told me that this man started fight but you don't need to hit back. Any way I consider it as self defense. But trouble is that why can't you sit still even now." " I don't know. I just kept moving like that. I tried hard to stay still but I can't." Police looked so confused. Then another officer " I feel that we throw this another fellow in jail but this one need a Doctor. Something is wrong with him." Police " I think he might be pretending. I just teach him a lesson." "no no I am not pretending." He said all words in such confused fashion that no one understood it. He was going too fast. He wanted to call his parents. But Police snatched mobile out of his hand. Police " Call Doctor." He just kept running around in that Police station like mad person. Every officer was sure that he was not normal. Finally Doctor came. He checked him but he was not even still during it. This was worst for him. He didn't want to keep moving in Police station. He was crying whole time. He tried to sit in chair in few moments he was moving around like some rocket. He was so strange. He just couldn't stop on any point. He started moving around. He didn't stop. He slowly got so frustrated. He couldn't control himself. He suddenly wanted to end it all. He began to threw away things around. He just wanted those guns to finish it all. He tried to grab it. It was worst scene for Police. Finally a Police hit him on head from behind. Then he fell unconscious. Same time Tarun's mobile rang. Police " Hello."" Tarun are you alright? I called you since you don't look well today." Police saw it was number saved in name of Mom." Hello are you Tarun's Mom?" "Yes." "He is in Police station. He even managed to create scene in Police station so we are taking him to hospital." " What? Can I come there?" "Sure. We will close this case on ground of mental trouble. We will glad if you come and take responsibility. We can't keep him out like that." His Mom so scared. " We will come as soon as possible." She started calling his Dad. But he couldn't took it. She sensed that she needed to just go. She started for searching for address on google map. She was so scared but still she went there.
Tarun's Mom went in reception. She told her about her son. That woman didn't seem to be interested that much. But when Tarun's Mom kept insisting, she finally asked other and showed her room. She ran to that room. Inspector was waiting outside. His Mom came near Inspector. " I am Mom of Tarun." " Ohh actually Doctor is checking him." Then Inspector told him everything. She was so confused. She never thought that it would turn in such worst way. Inspector " And before calling you. I received call from some one Mr. Varma. He must be his Boss. I had to tell him whole truth and I am sorry to inform you. That he fired him. He send his payment in your house by cheque." She started crying slowly now. Tarun finally lost his job. On that point her phone rang. She told every thing to her husband. Then she sat outside. While Police went away after taking one sign from her. She was sitting there for long time. Finally Doctor called her " Your son is suffering from Bipolar Depression. It was on mania episode. In bipolar patient felt swing of mood on every time. Some times they felt as if they had lost every thing. They just kept sleeping for weeks then after some time they suddenly began to get too energetic. When they get too energetic, they might get mania attack like Tarun got today. Did this happen before?" " Yes when his grand father died, he kept sitting for days then one day he suddenly began to work hard on every thing. He started looking around and moving so fast. One day he started suddenly screaming on one boy of school because he was telling him to slow down. It was so big issue. Principal called us. But we all thought that it was just due to his grand father's death so after that no such incidence." "Actually not bigger one. But he was getting moody to much now a days. One day he was to travel around whole world then he plan and in few weeks he said that he tired even to took tea cup in his hand." "So you don't feel any thing was wrong.""Actually.." Before Tarun's Mom could complete her sentence. His Dad came inside " What happened?" Psychiatrist told him every thing step by step. His Dad " It was my mistake. She was telling me again and again that some thing is wrong but I just prefer to ignore it. Can you cure it?" " Actually I can't remove it but we can teach him to handle it." Dad " So it is impossible to handle." "Now don't feel so scared. It is not such a big deal. We can handle it. He can live with it. Many people do. Just he had to take some medicines and have to come for therapy. I heard that he lost his job just now." His Dad looked at his Mom with shocked expressions. His Mom nodded. His Dad started crying. Psychiatrist " Now relax. I will help you with every thing. But you all need to cooperate with me. First I want to you to keep him in hospital for few days. Then we will understand his problem. Slowly we can cure him. He might not become perfect. But he will learn to handle his world. He can keep his job for time. He must be kept getting fired from his job." His Dad " So true. We are really tired of this. He never managed to stuck on one job. He took some job and worked hard for it then suddenly one day he just started resting in home and then he managed to find new one. But old story repeat again." "Don't worry I will handle it." This parents nodded. They just needed help. Then his Dad asked Psychiatrist about his fees. It was large amount. But they knew that they didn't have option. They tried every thing. It was their last resort so they nodded. Then they saw their son who was sleeping. They nodded and went in his room with one hope that he would be fine this time. Then suddenly Tarun's eyes opened. Tarun " Mom..Dad.." His Dad " Don't worry son. This Psychiatrist will cure you." Tarun looked at Doctor who smiled back at him.
