story, Part Six:
“but he didn’t break down, here he surprised me. (“he” – a separation between the authentic self and the presented self)
gathered all courage, stayed bak at college and started preps fr mba college.
3 months f solitude,failure made him come in touch wid his spiritual self…(unclear)
regarding R he knew, she was beginning to see thru his mask and he had to get away from her.
The fake love fr S was troubling as she loved him a lot and she was innocent, it was plain selfish. but he needed someone to survive this phase.
he studied fr 3 months… got decent score in mocks. his defence was ready…ppl praised him and believed in his potential again. …got placed in a MINING company first day. here was found wanting f courage, family pressure also worked.
…(unclear)…AS end neared S became a serious issue. how to get away from her. he liked her, but ppl had judged her…
somehow he got away from S. she cried and cursed… he used the classic parents not willing, no future argument.
got into his new job in a remote coal field area. his frends went to metros working fr companies. he already despised the mining tag. now not even a city to name as residence.
here blemishes started becoming unhidable…information management started failing. he couldnot put his hometown on (FB)it, as various ppl knew various infos.
in his new job he hated visiting mines and had a very negative attitude towards it. though people loved him personally his reputation at work started suffering. he was covering it up…extra nice behaviour,his social skills…
…money helped to fulfil some desires and helped at home too. he bought a bike not which he liked ride but which was considered stylish…got a weaving fr his hair…self image improved,was able to face the mirror now. the weaving became the personification of his false self, which always had to b hidden…fear of being found out. he was 25.
