A Fine Sunday.

I thought to let loose my flow of feelings. I believe, that is the only process, which will allow me to soak the day more clearly. It was a regular day, a very usual. But it was a Sunday, I sharply remember. Everyone was at home. I was busy doing some chores. Soon after finishing, I leaped upstairs at the terrace. Witnessing the full stretched Sun, I went near mom and sat beside her. She whispered and said, "eta dekh". I said, "keno? ki eta, ke banalo?" holding a paper Airplane. A bit dusty and half crooked. She said, "por bhetore ki lekha ache". I was both amazed and curious at the same time. Just to see what is written inside. I pulled each strand of the page, delicately, and found a sentence written. " Amader saathe kotha bolo"

I wonder who wrote it. The moment I started thinking, mom held my hand and said, "ora pathiyeche". As I now got my answer. I kept the plane where I sat, and went to them. To actually talk. Then we talked and tagged as friends. It was the walls that separated us. Rishi and Rusha. Both are siblings. Both of them then and there declared the plan. About how to blow out a portion of each of our walls. They also told me, about how they will build a bridge between. So that we can meet often. Rishi told me he will buy a boat anchor. So that he can tie a rope with that. At one end he will tie the anchor, and to another, he will tie it with his waist. He said he will ask his sister, Rusha to hold one of his legs. Then they will throw the anchor to our terrace, and they promised us that they will land safely. We laughed. Just to lighten their thought process and to extinguish their dangerous imaginary desire. But the major thing which made me write is about their desperate wants to 'Talk'. I ponder how lonely they must be feeling, and to get out of that solitariness. They wrote us a letter. Everyday they are sending me the paper planes whenever they do not get to see me. Don't you think, it was a call for help? I believe standing beside humans is a noble act. Keep supporting, spread humanism. Happy Valentine's Day!

The pictures were being captured the very next day.

    This incident was cute but nowadays this study and competitiveness stole their "শৈশবকাল" and your writing is mature.

Are we becoming Devils by choice?

Ranting has become my daily routine. But it won't be one this time, because I have a serious incident to tell you. I am going to tell you this but promise me one thing. You would not get angry. Promise?  So, the story goes like this. My mom is going as an escort teacher in one of the National-Level Karate Tournament tomorrow. She calls the parent for the  itinerary  and the essentials to pack. So far, it was all set. The parents are now aware of the fact that with whom their child would be under. Meanwhile, the mother, whom my mom was talking to, comes up to inform her about an incident that took place inside the school premises. I should tell you, that my mom was entirely unheard and unknown about this mishap.  My mom, very delicately with subtle curiosity asks her about the happenings. The mother suddenly bursts with a common-tuned motherly sorrow. She begins by saying that, her boy had to go through violent, harassing, abusive behaviour from the Karate teacher at ...

A City that Never Called

When I was in my late teens, I wished to walk down the streets of my city. The city of joy, Kolkata or maybe Calcutta. Apparently, it remained a wish, which did not get a chance to turn to reality. Although, Kolkata is a reality to others. But for me it is surreal. A place, away from my daily business. Even though, I belong here. Roamed to and fro from where I did my master's. Kolkata never called me. It never asked my hands for a stroll, and that is unfortunate to me. Unseen remained as it is. Being mysteriously aloof at this point in life. Made me pen this write-up without a purpose in mind. Pardon my purposelessness. But I assure you, that this will nonetheless confront your relationship with your city. Does Kolkata unfailingly have to throw at us a purpose? If yes, then why? Why can't we walk on its heart without a reason? Either Sun or rain always punctures my plans and urge. Especially, Mr. Rain. It caused me what not. Or is it me the reason behind not pushing myself to ...

You and I and Blood

In this haunted night, I want to confess my realisation. The person hurts you the most, who you love the best. The hard tears are crawling from my right coners. My nose is getting a bath. Unwanted bath. An ooze made it all happen. I am wanting to care least and trying to get busy. I hope I shall succeed. I want to make the person cry for me. I want to cut the flesh of the person. I want to fry the person. I want the person to brush into salty sand. I think I'm bloated and something is stuck inside the lining of my throat. I'm lying crooked in my bed. Right side turned. My neck is paining. It is numb, the way I'm. The way my feelings are getting. The glass window is moving, I can hear the shriek sounds sometimes. But I waited, did the person ever notice? I want happiness, joy, laughter. Did the person notice? All the person can do is encircle the flaws of era and me. I want to slap. Myself. For thinking everything worthwhile. . . My drooping eyes is the remembrance to a shad...
