She freshed herself, she made a cup of coffee, and she came in balcony, and it was a newspaper in her hand, she sat on chair and she stared to reading and enjoying her coffee.       

               After finishing her coffee, she turned in her studies, her studies was like a library, every type of book were there, and it that studies was decorated with beautiful animintes, with proper lighting, and crafted with beautiful paintings, a separate book shelf, an atmosphere and ambiance of the room was an excellent, Ankona took her laptop on the table, and she started for typing her novel……………………

               Though Ankona was commercially successful, but in personal life, she failed, why she failed in her personal life? It was the question remain always same, she was trying to get the answer, but many time she wasn’t able to get an answer, so many thoughts was waving in her mind and she was creating the questions in her mind, it was just questions but what about answers? She was trying to get it, but……………..

               She completed final draft of her novel, and she was feeling relax, since last 2-3 months, she was working on her novel, and today she completed her novel, she woke up from chair, she saved all data, she closed the laptop, now she was feeling a hungry, when she saw in clock it was near about 9.00 P.M., she cooked food for her, she ate that food, afterwords, she watched TV, and then she went for sleeping. It was her routine, her schedule was packed, from morning to till night she was keeping busy herself, so that, the another thoughts weren’t coming in her mind.

               Surendra, was Anokna’s brother, he was working in private firm, and he was having good income, he was having his own family, his wife, Anagha, was working as a financial consultant, in financial company, Surendra wasn’t keeping more relations with Ankona, because, Surendra thinking that, now she is capable enough to take her decision, and now he has his own family, how much he will take care of Ankona. Ankona was waiting for Surendra, and for Anagha, but both of them not visiting to her house, once, she was having her birthday, she called both of them, but they didn’t came, she felt very bad, she was assuming that both will not come, but when Surendra called her, for coming on her birthday, and she was feeling very happy, and like usuals, neither Surendra came nor Anagha for her birthday. She removed all thoughts, she went in an orphan age children home, and she celebrated her birthday with them, on that day she was very happy, she gave many chocolates, cakes, and gifts to that children, and when she saw the happiness on their faces, she found the key of happiness, and from that time, she was celebrating her birthday in an orphan age children home, regularly.

               Her novel was now ready for getting published, very soon, the hard bound of her first novel copy, she was getting in her hand, she was on that thinking, her mobile ringed,” yes, I will come, definitely I will come. She was very happy because the call was from publishing house, that publisher told to Ankona, that the hard bound copy of her book is ready. When she saw the copy, it was an incredible moment for her, and she decided to have a celebration for inauguration of her novel, she arranged a program, it was lovely programme, usually, she called Surendra, and Anagha, they refused, and then she didn’t forced them, as expected the programme got a huge success, because her name was popular in media industry, many big personalities were presented in that programme, the name of novel was “Separation”

               Ankona and Amit were a couple, both were very happy, though their marriage was arranged, but on both of them they was having a love which was really a symbol for others, they were very careeristic, but they were taking the responsibilities of their family too. Ankona was taking very good care of Amit’s mother, Amit wasn’t having father, and his father’s death, his mother took more care of Amit. Amit was very good educated he done his masters in management, and in good company he was working as a Management Trainee, he achieved a good success in his career, Ankona was also having a good career graph, but she was taking good care of her mother, she was looking to her mother also, it was a lovely and sweet family.

              

 Their career, was on bright path, both having achieved what they deserved, they celebrated their 5^th marriage anniversary, and for that occasion they gave a grand party, their relatives and family friends were present on that party, and really it was great party, both families and their friends enjoyed a lot, after completion of party, Amit’s mother asked them for their baby.”Now you completed 5 years of your marriage, now you should think for baby, I want to see the face of grand son/daughter, don’t mind, if you get son/daughter, but to fulfill your family, it is needed, I haven’t said till date, because you both were busy to make a good career, I can understand the importance of the carrer, now I think you settled in your career, you fulfilled your dream, then you must take a chance for baby.” Amit’s mother told to both of them, some days before, Ankona’s mother said the same thing to Ankona, and it was a repeat telecast, but the mouth was different.

              

 “ I think we should listen to mummy, now we earned what we want, and we must take chance for baby” Ankona said to Amit, when they were alone on their room, and now they started their planning of family.

               They tested everything, but Ankona wasn't carrying a baby, what was the problem? Wheather the problem was in Amit or in Ankona? Who was the resposible for it. The questions was the same, Ankona was worring about the reports of both, “I am feeling very scary, what would be reported?” Ankona said to Amit. “There is no any meaning of worry, the report wouldn’t be change, whatever it is, it will remain the same, so don’t worry, whatever the report, we will both accept it,” Amit said to Ankona. With Amit’s word Ankona feeling a little bit relax, but the tension was the same as her.

               Next morning, they got their reports, and it was strange, the reprot was for the test, who is not capable of reproduction, whether the problem in Amit, or in Ankona. When they got the report, both were shocked.

               They came at home, Ankona was just crying, Amit’s mother asked about the report, Amit was also not able to explain, he directly went to the room, Ankona was just crying, Amit was just looking to her, even he not tried to understanding to her, he took his bag, and he went for office. Ankona didn’t understand how should react on the behaviour of Amit. At night, when all were on dining table, Amit’s mother asked about the report, and Amit got angry, and he left out the dinner. “Please, don’t angry on the food, we will talk, please don’t go.” Ankona was requesting to him, but he wasn't able to understand to Ankona.

               The days were passing, and the differences between Amit and Ankona, was also increasing, Ankona was doing her work regularly, but now, their relations were not proper, Amit’s mother was trying to solve the differences but Amit, he was not adjusting with Ankona. Ankona put the option of an adaption, but Amit refused her proposal, and he said to her he wants his baby, not any one else’s baby, he wasn't ready for an adaption. Surendra was just looking the show, he neither participating nor giving any suggestions, so he was behaving like a third person, Ankona wasn't understanding from whom she should take help.

               One day, Amit kept proposal in front of Ankona, and it was getting separated, Amit gave a leagl notice to Ankona, and he filed the petition for divorce, Ankona shocked when she got the legal notice, for the same, she asked to Amit, and he told it is his decision, “ I want to increase my family, and with you, it won’t possible”. Amit was angry with Ankona, and gave his decision. Ankona asked his mother, she talked with Amit, Amit, wasn't ready to listen.

               They got divorced, form the court, both were separated, she didn’t ask any compensation from Amit, because, she was financially strong enough, Surendra didn’t entertain to her, and told to her for not coming at home.

               She started her own life, it was fully career-oriented, it was strictly professionalism in her life, but what about her personal life? It was disturbed totally.

               It was a grand event of her book launch, she got good response from readers, and many copies were sold in the programme, she came back at home, the questions remained the same.

               Was it easy to Ankona to digest this separation? It was easy to Amit, the things were very casual to him, he never thought about Ankona. The problem can be solved by both of them, but the divorce wasn't a solution, but Amit, took the decision of separation.

               The separation was an end of their story, it does not just end, but it was starting a new life to Ankona. But the questions remained same again and again. The separation was the full stop for their relations.
