The day is like any other day a 9 years old girl is sleeping soundly on the ground on a thin mattress.
Yes on ground because her parents can't afford a bed.
They all stay in one big room with no separate rooms.
They had a small kitchen in the room and a common washroom that is used by all tenants of the big house.
The girl may be poor economically but her heart is big. She is rich by her beauty.
A beauty that can make any boy fall for her at this age only.
But sometimes beauty can become a curse as well.
"Asmu uthe por ma, sokal hoye geche,
Asmu wake up ma, it's morning
" The little girls mother called her
"ma ar 5 minutes,
ma 5 minutes more
" The little girl pleaded like every morning
Her mother chuckled at her daughter's antics.
"Asmu if you won't wake up then how will i take you to my work place? You forgot that today is Kabir babu's birthday and you are invited." her mother said and The little girl opened her eyes
"ohho I totally forgot about it." She said and got up from her sleeping place
Her mother took the worn out mattress and placed it on its correct place.
"now you remember right? Then go and take a bath." Her mother said and the little girl smiled at her mother
She did her morning routine and got dressed in her best dress, a cute black flower printed frock.
She wears it on every occasion. It's the best dress she possesses.

She never complained about it to her parents.
She has seen kids of her age wearing stylish and beautiful clothes.
Even some girls make fun of her old clothing but she doesn't care.
She is happy with whatever she has.
Her mother made a pony tail of her hair and put a small black bindi.
She wore the black beads necklace she had and she is ready to go.
She ate her breakfast, which is one roti with a little amount of sugar.
Her father is working as a labor in construction sites. So he doesn't stay around at day time much.
The mother daughter duo left their home to go for their destination.
Once they reached there her mother took her to the kitchen where she will work.
"Asmu you only stay here ok. Don't go anywhere. I will be busy working ok." Her mother said and the little girl nodded
Her mother started to cook with other maids.
The whole house was in chaos and why will it not be? It was the 17th birthday of the only son of this house owner.
The little girl was getting bored but as her mother said to stay here only she was staying in her place.
Suddenly she remembered that she had carried her dolls with her.

She silently took them out from her mother's bag and sat in a corner with them.
She was playing with them as if it were a couple dolls.
But suddenly she was coughing badly because of the smell of strong spices.
"Asmu baby you go outside and sit beside the pond nearby ok? You will cough more if you stay here." Her mother said and the girl nodded
She went outside as her mother instructed her.
She saw the little pond side back of the house.
She sat down there and dipped her legs in the cold water.
She giggled as the cold water touched her feet.
She sat a little far from the pond because she may have fallen down.
She was playing there alone when few teenagers came there. There were kids of her age as well.
They all were Kabir's friends and their siblings.
They spotted the little girl sitting there and a devilish idea popped in their mind.
The girls were visibly jealous of the little girl because she was that much beautiful.
"come on guys let's have some fun." One of the girls said and they all go towards her
"hey see there is a beggar in kabir's house." The girl said loudly and others laughed at her
The little girl knows that they are talking about her only.
But she pretends like she didn't hear them. It's normal for her to hear this kind of thing.
"hey girl can't you hear? Are you dumb bitch?" the elder girl said and the little girl got angry
She doesn't know what the word bitch means but she knows it's bad.
"don't call me a bitch. It's a bad word." the little girl replied a little angrily
"oh ho see guys the little bitch can hear and talk I thought she is deaf and dumb." The girl said and laughed
"Niya left that girl. She is a kid for god sake." a boy from her group said
"why Amit is this little bitch is turning you on huh?" Niya replied
"shut up Niya mind your tongue. Don't forget with whom you're talking." Amit hissed
"you can go and fuck yourself if you don't want to be here. Losers like you don't belong here." Niya said arrogantly
Amit just left from there because he knew that only one person can stop this drama now.
"So back you to bitch. What did you say that you're not a bitch huh? But you're a bitch and I will call you that. You're a beggar bitch." Niya said
She herself doesn't know why she is behaving this much with that little girl.
"have you seen her clothes? It's like it's bought from chor bazar.
chor bazar is a place where stolen goods are sold and buyed.
The colour is fading away. I'm sure she is some maid's daughter I don't know why uncle and auntie allow them here" the girl said
That little girl felt really bad. She knew that her dress was not the best but it was good enough. Her father bought it for her on her birthday.
The little girl wiped her tears and decided to leave from there with her dolls.
"see guys the bitch is crying. And see the dolls eww, it's so dirty god knows how much germ it carries." Another girl said
The little girl clutched her dolls tightly and hugged them.
It's her mother's gift for her. Her mother made them by her hands for her.
She planned to run from there but alas Niya caught her before she could.
" where are you going bitch?" she said and twisted her hand
The little girl screamed in pain.
"Eww Niya you touched her now you have to take a bath. And please throw her dolls in the pond." the girl said
"No! Please don't throw them. Let me go please." the little girl screamed but no one heard her pleas
Niya took the dolls and threw them in the pond. The little girl could not help but see the drama
She was crying badly but her cries didn't affect them at all.
" What the hell is going on here ? "a boy asked and all stiffen at their place
" Kabir what are you doing here? "Niya asked glaring at Amit who had bought him here
" I asked what the hell is going on here? And why is this kid crying? "kabir asked in his angry voice
" Ahh! Leave her. She is a beggar bitch I was just enjoying myself with her. Nothing serious. I didn't harm her. "Niya said in a matter of tone fact
" and what's in the pond? "kabir asked pointing on the dolls
" they are my dolls. She threw them in the pond. "The little girl said while crying
Kabir looked at her crying face and his heart clenched in pain.
His eyes were struck on her innocent and beautiful face.
