Synopsis[edit | edit source]
Ningthiba was born in a far remote island of Manipur, Karang. His mother expired when he was a kid, his father single handedly nourished him along with his elder brother, Malang. Ningthiba was good at studies. In due course of time, he passed his matriculation with flying colours at 25th rank. Therefore, his father sent him to Imphal for his further studies. There, in his intermediate course at Imphal, he met Nonglik, a girl brought up by a single parent (mother) who belongs to a well-to-do family from Thoubal District. Both of them stayed in their respective school hostels. They felt in love with each other during their higher secondary phase of school life.
In one holiday season, while Nonglik was roaming with her friends, her car collided with a car driven by Nipa. It led her to get furious, thus she slapped Nipa in broad daylight for which Nipa thought of giving her a revenge. He consequently started searching for her after that incident. After passing their 12th standard, Ningthiba went to New Delhi for pursuing Agricultural Science in Pusha University while Nonglik remain at home since she could not leave her mother all alone.
In what may be called a horrifying incident, Nonglik was raped by Nipa while Ningthiba was preparing for his final semester exam. After his exam, he tried to contact Nonglik but all her contacts were not working and traceless. He came out at home after giving the campus interview for Ohio Food and Agricultural Industry. With the help of his friend Mitkhu, he met her but she ignored him without disclosing anything. Clueless, Ningthiba slowly started searching for the clue. At last, from his friend Mitkhu, he heard about the brutal incident and slowly he got depressed and led him to slide into insanity while searching for Nipa to revenge for his love.
Ningthiba was hit brutally by a car when he ran wild happily after giving revenge to Nipa. His insanity was over when treating at a hospital. In addition to the recovery, one more good news came along the way as he got selection for the job of Junior Scientist at Ohio Food and Agricultal Industry. Thus, his father and brother went to Nonglik’s house for proposal of their wedding. His love was too much pure that he kept behind all the gossips of society and took her to Ohio after the marriage to spend a new life.
