She lost one 'BOOB'. And she lost her entire life, family and happiness.

What an awesome gift of god....to mankind. Don't we all males love em so much? But..think a little deeper....think like an 'enlightened soul' and you may see BOOBS as just two pieces of extra flesh hanging around from the chest of a female- of the  homosapiens  species.

This is the story of one of my friends', a close friend who i met 6 years back during a conference and later, we became quite good buddies.

Her life story was like a fairy tale. Her school time love.....which later blossomed into a professional relationship and which, amazingly turned into a lifelong bond. Of course, full Bollywood drama had happened- parents not liking the rishta. she being confined for some days. Later, she runs away. Comes back home after getting her marriage registered....etc etc.

With her husband working in one of the top MNCs, that too, as India head....she had nothing to worry.

So daily outings, weekend escapades, a vacation every 4 months.....and woah.

Two and half years into marriage, their first kid came in this world. And celebrations were simply the talk of the town.

Just as the baby was one and a half years old....something drastic happened. The entire screen...which was playing one of the best lovestories' of this world- crashed. shattered. scattered.

She was diagnosed with breast cancer.

The best of docs, medicines, hospitals.....in India as well as abroad.......but......nothing helped.

Till there was hope' for her....her husband was with her, and by her side. Slowly and gradually his attitude changed.

He simply couldn't stand the sight of her. Rather her, with just one BOOB. And he made that 'very very clear'.

He started being out of home for days at a stretch.

Got into heavy drinking.

Refused to even come close to his wife.

And finally- he even started bringing hi-society call girls at home. And he would ask her to sit there and 'watch' it.

While losing one breast was a 'painful' fact to live with, this behaviour of her husband left her 'dying' each day...from within.

What else- next? Depression. Suicidal tendencies. Horrible fights at home. Kid- always terrified.

Anyways.

Then the best thing happened. She got 'divorced'.

No, i am not writing a creative' literary story...so no twists and turns.

It is only to highlight one persons' travails. And anothers' perversion.

And every male's obsession.
