But he didn’t have to force me. I volunteered myself. Initially my family and my in laws had a problem, but now they’ve adjusted to my new lifestyle.
In my profession I get to meet various kinds of people everyday, mostly brats and unsatisfied husbands. The more I see them the more my heart fills with pride, because I know my husband would never do something like this.
A few months back I hated prostitutes, obviously then I’d never thought I would become one. But now my perception has changed. It gives me a new name everyday, not to mention a new man as well.
The pimp who gave me this job makes sure I sleep with safe customers. He even suggested I undergo tubectomy, to avoid any sort of hindrance. I am considering his suggestion but I guess I’ll have to take my husband’s permission. But I’ll have to wait for it, because he doesn’t talk to me. He doesn’t talk to anyone. He is in coma. The doctor says he needs to be operated within 2 months. We’ve sold our houses, our cars. Our parents are too old to work. With the education I have, prostitution wasn’t the only option, but I chose it, because it was the highest paid.
Sometimes I wish he hadn’t left for the party that Saturday. That’s when the truck hit him. My doctor says his spinal cord had been shattered, and it’s a miracle that he survived.
I am sure this isn’t the future he had planned for me, but I don’t mind living it. May be I die everyday, but I’m sure my husband will live one day.
It’s your family who’ll pay the price.
Don’t drink and drive.

joy i like d way u hv framed dis very touching story,,,quite bonded!!
An unexpected ending to the story...awesome..initially I thought it to be some sympathy gainer so called "I am a prostitute but i have reasons....story" but when I read the concluding paragraph the twist made me read it again..good piece..and so the moral of the story is guys "Please do not drink and drive..."
Thank u mani and chimpu.
hope it makes an impact on the readers

ur story has another lesson too, except the obvious one... (read: ppl dont always choose to take a certain way of life!)
thanx anusha
m glad u liked
coz undoubtedly u r my best critic.
my story is just one situation. it doesn't have to be everyone's story. the motive was male drunk drivers should know that this can be a possible result.
Grt8 man...It's awesome...
U have always been so damn cinematic in ur approach towards every story dude , ur a genius when it come sto story telling and especially a sensetive one but ya it still sounded better years back on that bus stand when i heard it first time
thanx man
m sure it did
we were better human beings then
nice piece of writing...good command over the story and a different take on a serious issue...good one...
and to think, i thought your last post was good!!
The title may be catchy but the last paragraph is the real cherry on this cake...
Two thumbs up for a great post with a good social message....
hey a touching story bt...
i feel no man deserves such a huge sacrifice frm a woman
so m kind of angry at that lady 4 killing herself everyday 4 a man who mite wake up one day n then leave her 4 she is a pros
hey astha m glad u liked it.
dat was the idea.
men should read this and realise that this can be a possibility
Awesome as usual!!! There goes the great writer to prove he is the best.
Well to begin with, i feel the mode of storytelling is the most catchy part of this one. Even a small event could be made so visual and catchy!! Hats off man!!

Quite a piece.....its beautiful....stings the reader...
superb da :) its really innovative .. good job
joy u write really well..nice message for all those who drink and drive..but hey i feel its better to die for someone whom u love so much than to live like this for them...
Quite Touching Joy. Its really something meaningfull!
very touchy n an eye opener...
i think the punch lies nt in the story..but the way it has been crafted...or screenplay if adapted suitably
though i had my doubts abt u writing it...but i will give u benefit of doubt
well u wish u were correct Sukhi
But as the world knows i am a better writer
Simple, small, intriguing...the twist is brilliant. In just one part I thought you contradicted yourself but if I look at the way you crafted the story, I would say that you have a good future in the field of story writing.
