I was coming from my home, in train. I met an old friend, who was also coming to the same city. He got a new job there. He was my school friend. We met, talk about life, and then in respective coach. I was going through normal non-ac seat, and he was in ac-seat. It was peak summer time.

I told him, I’m going through divorce, jobless, financial crunch. I was living in my flat, which I had to give in alimony, and after some months, I will be homeless, will live on rent. I was saving rupees on my food, in my regular life to live. I told him all.

After few days, I got call from him, that he is not able to find any room. I told him to come live with me, as Im alone, for few days, but told him that here might be some problems from my divorce case. He shifted.

Today, its 3rd month going on. And, he is still here. I’m doing house holds, cleaning house. He sometimes, order water, milk. But, he is using my everything. My electricity, internet wifi, kitchen stuff, bed, fan, washrooms, everything. I have given him hint, to leave.

But, he put the blame on me. “Do you have any problem, if I live here?”. Haha, and can anyone say straight away, that Im not comfortable, leave. I said, no, I dont have any issue. And, Im stuck.

He is not even thinking, that Im struggling with my own life, jobless, putting his burden on me, not helping in house hold stuff. Am I his father.

This is clear exploitation. And, I have been exploited by numerous such people. People take benefit of me, my nature.

But, its enough now. I’m planning to ask him plainly, to leave, with obviously some excuse, and a deadline.

No one should take your peace. If anything is taking your peace, its not worth. You are allowed to take actions for yourself, nobody else will.

How did this story make you feel?
