Thanks to all for reading the story. I guess I have opted to be a bit filmi this time around, compared to the negative, psychotic endings.

Fortunefaded: I agree that the plot seems to be a bit implausible at times. I guess I was attempting to write a story where the right thing happens in the end. Thanks for the comment. I guess it is still going to take some time for the Nepali society to think that all castes should be treated the same.

Saru bhakta: Thanks :)

Daum: The ending was filmy wasnt it? I wish this could be the case in real life.. and this might be the case in real life for someone out there. Thanks for reading.

Camo!: LOL. My weeks last semester were exactly how I descrive Anushka's week in this story- eight day weeks. Hence the long gap in between. And now that finally school is over (and I literally mean over as in I dont have to go back to undergrad. life anymore), I thought I should write a new story. I am a bit rusty though... so it might take some more time for me to write new ones. Thanks for readong. And thanks for the completely positive feedback. lol. I need some of those to feel good re k. lol

Nepal ko Chora: Exactly my thoughts. I dont understand why people in Nepal treat each other like they are from different planets. I was once told in one of my classes that India and Nepal discriminates the most amongst its citizens. They discriminate on the basis of caste.. whereas no other country does that. I was shocked at how true the prof. was! I think it is going to tke some time for Nepalese to forget about the caste system  as most of us are brought up believing that caste is  HUGE thing. Thanks for the comment :).

Simple Life: Thanks for reading. I must say that the ending was filmi.. and yet I hope that something like this does happen. I think we need people to do things like this to abolish caste discrimination.

Samsara: Interesting feedback. I was hoping that Nimesh would not kill Anushka's relationship with her family. I wanted her family to finaly accept her decision and for all of them to have a happy life. Thanks for reading. :)

And last... yet not the least.. Thanks to Spring.

Phew... this is a LONG post. See you all later :)
