The summers were approaching. Every day I walked down a lonely barren road; bereft of any shades. I remembered the first day, I stepped into his domain. I came to his house, to live with ChotoMa. On that day, I thought that I entered the house forever. On that day, I was not aware of the fact that after few months we would get separated.
I was prepared to leave my college after the classes were over. I thought to take a walk alone through the lanes between the bookshops.
While I walked through those lanes and by lanes between those bookshops of College Street, I remembered that he told me that there were “Eight thousand six hundred and twenty two book shops here.” I smiled on remembering those words.
I was very much engrossed in my thoughts as I walked.
I was about to cross the street when I was pulled out of the street by someone.
Debobroto yelled at me---“What are you doing? You would have been killed.”
I regained my senses. A speeding bus just crossed few centimeters away from me. I gave a horrific look at him. My heart thumped loud. I tried to catch my breath by clasping my chest.
“Do you have any sense when you cross the road? Do you want to die?” he kept shouting at me.
I looked at him with my big eyes.
After I regained my composure I told him---“God is not to so merciful to take me away.”
He held my upper arm in his grip and pulled me on the footpath.
---“I want to talk to you in length and breadth.”
I contracted my brows and asked---“What do you want to know? I have nothing to tell you. Why can’t you leave me alone? Please.”
He loosened his grip and nodded his head---“Ok. So I am not your friend. Right?”
The bunch of lock came over my face. I moved that bunch away, tucked that tuft behind my right ear, and said---“You are definitely my friend. But Debobroto, I have nothing to say to you.”
He gave a painful look at me. I was unable to look at his face so I looked down to hide my pains which were about to drip from the corner of my eyes. There was huge vacuum inside my chest. I tried to fill that vacuum with a deep breath.
I could sense that Debobroto was trying to delve in my domain. He wanted to see my smiling face or to come closer to me. But I kept myself well confined in a high wall. I did not let any fresh air to dwell in my heart.
