Kathmandu—Everyone enters this city seeing it as a city of opportunity and potential. Some enter with a plan, while others enter here with the hope of luck. I have tried to write an interesting tripartite story about those who enter the city with a similar desire. This is not a fictional story but material prepared based on truth and research. My research took place in the area from Gongabu Chowk to Balaju Chowk in Kathmandu and its surrounding areas. Thousands of tea shops and liquor shops in that area have their own ways of doing business. One of the interesting ways of doing business is in the shop of an aunt, uncle's customer, and youth. (Name changed) Suntali, an ordinary girl born in a village, runs away from home to a boy a little older than her while studying in the 9th grade, and marries him. Within 3-4 years of marriage, she becomes the mother of 2 children. Her husband, who initially loved her very much, gradually stopped caring for her after she gave birth to a child. She has given birth to a child at a young age, but her husband has already been satisfied with her. Not only that, but her husband has also added a family burden.
Since they married for their own pleasure, neither of them gets good family support. This directly affects the husband. To bear all this burden, she makes up her mind to go abroad. On the other hand, Suntali, who has just entered the age of youth, has no desire to send her husband abroad. To deal with the pressure and behavior of the family, she has no other option but to go abroad with that boy. The boy goes to Arabia after seeking a loan in the village. After not getting the salary and the job he promised here, the boy cannot send money home. The person who gives the loan starts coming to the house every day and making trouble. When people start coming to the house every day, disagreements and arguments start between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law. The mother-in-law insults Suntali and says that she is the one who will spoil my son, and the father-in-law supports her. After a while, Suntali reaches a point where she cannot stay in that house. Suntali tells her husband all this, but the boy cannot go against his parents. Instead, he tells his wife, "Do whatever you want."
Suntali is forced to think seriously. The last thing a daughter remembers is her mother. Suntali also calls her mother and tells her everything. Her mother tells her that her father, who is suffering from the disease, should not have compassion for his children and agrees to call her home no matter what. Finally, Suntali, carrying her clothes a little, reaches her mother, clutching her two children. Suntali feels some relief from the love of her mother and the affection of her father in her mother, but it does not last long. On the other hand, the in-laws try to make the husband abroad wonder if he has done anything. After that, the husband, who sometimes calls and asks about the children's condition, stops talking. When even a little money from abroad does not come, it is very difficult for Suntali to educate and raise her two children. While living with Maiti, Suntali starts chatting with a girl named Maya (name changed) through Facebook and TikTok. During the conversation, Maya tells her that she works in her aunt's office and earns a good income. In a very difficult situation, Suntali asks Maya to find a job for herself. Maya assures Suntali that she will arrange a job for her if she comes to Kathmandu. Suntali is scared; without thinking about what to do or asking anything, she takes on the responsibility of looking after her two children, searching for opportunities in this dream city, and being ready to face every challenging time. And buys a night train ticket and arrives in Kathmandu. Suntali and Maya meet in Kathmandu. Maya, who has been living here for a few years, did not take much time to study Suntali's mood. Suntali started working the very next day after arriving in Kathmandu. The first thing was to arrange food and accommodation for Suntali here. Maya had arranged that, so Suntali started going to her aunt's shop without talking about the service facilities and salary. The work was easy; she had to sit with the customers who came to her shop and have lunch, alcohol, and hookah. Maya was a housewife and knew very well how to make the girls proficient in sex from the beginning. Suntali was smart. Whenever a customer tried to treat Suntali with bad intentions, Maya would immediately fight back and cover her up because she had to win Suntali's trust.
Suntali also thought that when she found Maya in this strange city, she found God. Maya also loved Suntali as if she were a member of her own family. She would ask how the child was at home and send her some expenses. A strong relationship had developed between Maya and Suntali. Suntali was amazed; she would get food and money. Aunty would calculate the commission for the food she ate while sitting with the customer when she went home in the evening. She would regularly earn between 500 and 1000. By saving that money, Suntali was able to take care of her children in the orphanage. In the evenings, Suntali was often alone in the room; sometimes Maya would go out on some excuse, like someone's birthday. Suntali thought about this matter very seriously but was afraid to talk about it. Because she was staying in Maya's room.
