“She said that she wanted a break from the relationship. I asked her if I should at least hope that she will come back. She said no because she wanted to stay single for some time and that might change things for her. I could not accept that.” Parse through any teenage highschooler’s diary, and words like these are all too easy to find. Breaks vs break ups, situationships vs relationships, boyfriend vs ex-boyfriend, these duels define adolescence. We’ve all been through some version of it. But as we retrospect, we cringe at that bygone era; of course, we are older now. Now we’re too mature to put up with these silly little dramas. The same insecurities do not haunt us any more? Or do they? Deep down in our psyche, are we still that insecure teenage kid? Some folks just never grow up. And those words you just heard weren’t of a teenager, but a grown man. Sometimes, not growing up, not getting out of the shell of puberty, can have adverse consequences in your adulthood: for you, and for your partner. This is the story of a man still trapped in a teenage drama of his own making, this is the story of Anuj Kumar. 


Hello everyone. My name is Anuj Kumar and through this video I’ll tell you about my actions. You’ll find this video after my actions have taken place so watch the whole video and then decide if my actions are justified. Well, you can’t say [they’re] justified because what I’m going to do is not justified by any means. So, let’s start. First, let me tell you a bit about myself. Man, I used to be a really good person. I was a good boy. I never troubled anyone, never said anything to make someone angry. I was really good at studies. I was really good at sports. I was a national level player in athletics. Everything was going perfectly. Then I entered college and there I found a girl named Sneha. She was in her 2nd year, now she’s in her 3rd year, she came into my life and because of her my life took a drastic turn. Before her, I had suffered a lot of pain. I had a sister and she had gotten married, she also had a child, they had a great family and yet she was burnt alive by her husband. I don’t know what her fault was, in this. The only mistake she made was trying to be a good mother. Her son used to be sick most of the time and she used to take care of him. That was the only mistake she made. Yet, she was burnt alive. Then my uncle, last year, he also died due to [a] heart-attack because [his] wife left him.

Firstly, I ask for forgiveness from her parents but your daughter is not worth calling your daughter. She not worthy of being called a human. 

And to my parents, I say the same, if it’s possible, do forgive me. Your son loved a person with an honest heart, cared for that person, never wronged anyone, and worked hard throughout my life, but what happened with him was wrong. I’ll never be able to become a good son but I’ll be a good human after I punish the person who ruined several lives.

Goodbye.
