...সি
মোৰ চোলাত আহি খামুছি ধৰিচিল দাদা। মোৰ..হুক... মোৰ চকুৰ সন্মুখত তাক
তিনিতা গুলি মাৰি সিঁহতে এইজনিক মাৰিব আহিছিল। মই এইজনিক ধৰি লৈ কেনেবাকৈ
পলালো। ম....ই। আৰ্ৰে ধৰ ইয়াক (মই ছোৱালীজনীক উদ্দেশ্যে কলো)। অন্তৰিপে
দৰ্জাখনৰ কাষতে চকু তেলেকাই তাত ধৰফৰাই থাকিল।
দাদা কত গল আপুনি? দাদা ক'ত...(নিশব্দ)। জোনাকী পৰুৱাৰ তিৰবিৰ পোহৰ আৰু
উইচিৰিঙাৰ চিক-চিক শব্দই যেন শব্দহীনতাক ভেদী নিৰ্বিশেষে তিক-তিক বাজি থকা
ঘৰীতোক বাকৰুদ্ধ হ'বলৈ আজি মজবুৰ কৰিছে। বিহুৰ বতৰত অবতৰীয়া খবৰে খহুৱা
কৰা আকাশখনেও যেন আজি ভেম জুৰিছে। দৌৰি আহি ঘৰত দেখিলোঁ অন্তৰিপ এতিয়া
সুস্থ। মোৰ বোধ হয় সি দুই,তিনি দিন ধৰি একো খাবলৈ পোৱা নাই। তই থিকে আছ'?
মই তাক সুধিলো। ছোৱালীজনীৰ নাম চন্দ্ৰপ্ৰভা। জোনৰ নিচিনা চেঁচা আৰু শান্ত।
অন্তৰিপ হতৰ ওচৰৰে প্ৰদিপ দাৰ ভনিয়েক। তই অলপ শান্ত হ। কি খাবি ক'? পানী
খাবি? এতিয়া ক'চোন কি হ'ল?
..মন্ত্ৰীৰ লৰাৰ লগত জেং লাগিব লগিয়া কি আছিল ক'চোন। প্ৰদীপ দাৰ মৃতদেহটো
তাত টুকুৰা টুকুৰ কৰি শিয়াল, কুকুৰৰ কাৰনে ওচৰৰ বিলৰ পাৰত পেলাই দিছে
সিহতে। তাৰ এই ত্যাগ মই অথলে যাব নিদিওঁ। অন্তৰিপ এ জোৰকৈ পিষ্টলতো খামুচি
ওলাই গ'ল। মই তাক ৰখাব দৰ্জাখনৰ বাহিৰ ওলৱা লগে লগে কোনোবাই পিছফালৰৰ পৰা
মোৰ মূৰত হাতুৰীৰে কোবালে।
... তুমি? অ...ন্ত...ৰিপ বচা।

PART 2
...I
was afraid you know. He came to me all of a sudden and gradually fell
on me, grasped my shirt to stand still. They shot him in front of me,
three times. Can you believe that? He was dead when i moved my fingers
to and fro his nose just to check his breathe. I was confirmed that now
we both had to face the same fate but i pushed them and ran away with
her.
Don't let him fall on the ground, i told the girl with whom Ontorip
came into my room. Ontorip was weak i think, probably he didn't had
anything to eat from two-three days. He gradationally fell on the ground
desatting and his eyes rolled up suchlike he's about to die.
Dada, where did you go? Time stood frozen and you can seriously hear
the silence, of the night with buzzing sound of cricket and gloomy
fireflies rippled, made tempo of the clock speechless. One cannot accept
this unprecedented news during Bihu. After all Bihu brings happiness
and prosperity in and around everywhere. Reaching home, I can finally
see Ontorip is doing better now. He looked at me and asked can i get a
glass of water please? He slowly moved his arm and placed it in his
abdomen and with a shaky voice he started his side of the story. She's
Chandraprabha (He pointed his finger at her). Do you remember our
neighbour Pradeep? ( I shook my head up and down). She's Pradeep's
sister.
..a Dissension? How did that happened? They Cut his body to pieces and
threw his body parts near levee. As he concluded his sentence he stood
up furiously and shouted, I shouldn't have let that happen but I'll avenge his death. He fiercely hold the gun and walked out of my room with
burning vengeance in his eyes. I was about to stop him, as i walked
outside my room somebody from behind hit me with a hammer with a brute
force on my head. I capsized like a boat on the floor, looked up.
Oh, why? It's you. Ontorip H...e...l...p!
