'Mango Moods' by Reeta Mani

This story touches my feelings. I am very amazed on how Chitra had suffered and how she uses all her energy to survive. She is very strong women I ever met. She compares her life with mangoes tree that have an upside down life. Although she had suffered a lot from her mother in law, she still dedicated her life towards her mother in law and her husband. Her husband was not really support her and understand her very well. He just seems to agree all of her mother’s saying. As a grown up man, he should protect his wife and defend her when he was abuse internally.  I am not saying that he should disobey his own mother but as a husband, how could you see your wife in that kind of miserable person. It is just about the matter of time to get a son. They need to try harder to get a baby and use all the possibilities way to get a baby. Her mother in law should understand on how she really felt inside. She is trying her best way to make everyone else happy. Every sadness and pain that she had, she is never complaining about it. I am very proud on how she survives. Her husband should always with her and accompany her when she goes for a medical checkup. He needs to be a responsible husband and love his wife the way it suppose to be. He can’t just depend on her friend. Ran away from the problem and spending time at the office cannot solve the problem. In my or opinion, they should discuss among them on how to make things getting better. After eight years of marriage, she had gone pregnant and she had all the attention from the world. What kind of justice is that? After suffer so many times, her mother in law trying to make friend with her. She only cared about the baby. I am very happy to see that Chitra is happy when she delivers the baby. Everyone seems happy with that and I am really hoping that her mother in law will stay nice towards her.
