Neelu said with a hard face, he will come to see me tomorrow. Ranju did not seem to listen to Nilu. The wind was blowing. He has to light a cigarette. No time to listen. Neelu said again, he will come to see me tomorrow evening. Who will come? Sometimes Ranju’s stupidity irritates Nilu’s body. Still doing so. Ranju said again, who will come in the evening? Neelu paused and said, I am talking about marriage.
Come see the pot. Ranju did not seem particularly concerned about the news. He pulled out a cigarette and said, don’t come. Don’t you mean? What if he likes me? Ranju said seriously, do not mean like? Anyone who sees you will be terrified. Neelu got angry and said, only donkeys like you will have tara eyes. Ranju startled the people in the street and laughed.
Neelu said, don’t walk slowly, why are you running? Ranju laughed at this too. For some reason I know he is in a very merry mood today. What a melody of the song hummed. This is not usually seen. On the street he walks on Varikki rice. Will you watch a blue movie or one? No. Let’s not go. Neelu started walking quietly. Don’t talk about that? See? Uh-huh. Talk at home. No one will talk.
Mothers do not tell their daughters when it comes to marriage. Who told you I know. Then mothers are very upset. The girl will go to her father-in-law’s house. You will not understand these sentiments. Let’s watch a movie. No. Well then let’s sit in a good restaurant and have tea. Neelu looked at him with small eyes for a while and said, I see I have a lot of money Ranju laughed again, immediately became serious and said, what do you think? Do you eat tea every day with your money? Look at this.
Two fifty rupees notes came out. Neelu did not say anything. Why are you so serious Neelu? I just can’t smile like you. I will go home, I will not have tea now. Please Neelu, why are you doing this? As soon as I entered the restaurant, it started raining in big drops. Ranju said happily like a child, well done. Captive until the rain stops. He relaxed and took another cigarette.
Neelu said, how many cigarettes do you smoke with this? This is the fifth. Really? Hmmm. Touch the body. Ah what a feminine affair. What happens when you touch the body? Whatever you say. Ranju said hesitantly, I will not smoke any more. Word of Honor. Mardak arthritis Hantika teeth. They left the restaurant just before dusk. No rain. The wet road is glistening in the neon light. Ranju said, will Nilu take a rickshaw? Uh-huh. Pretty much. Let’s take you by rickshaw to Jhikatala.
Yes, let someone see later. Who will see in the evening? Call a rickshaw? Ok call As he got on the rickshaw, Ranju saw Nilu’s eyes watering. He was very surprised. What’s the matter, Neelu? Feeling very bad. What if they like me tomorrow? Ranju laughed out loud: Like it or not, we will get married in court. Then where will you take me, what will you eat? What else do you have except two tuitions?
M.A. There is a degree. Have the courage. And what else? And there is love. Neelu and Ranju both laughed together this time. Ranju lit another cigarette in a very cheerful manner. Neelu said softly, this is to give up your cigarette? Fell now. This is the last one. Uh-huh. Ranju threw a cigarette in the street. The potters will come to see in the evening but the harassment started from the morning.
Nilu’s elder brother did not go to the office on this occasion. Nilu’s younger sister Bilu also did not go to school. The initiator of this marriage: Nilu’s great uncle, he also came at seven o’clock in the morning. Neelu likes his uncle very much but today when he smiled and said, what is Neelu Bibi, what is the news? Then Neelu said with a dry face, good. Why did you keep your face like a pot? I brought a sari for you. Like to see.
Mama, why sari? I brought a good sari. After this sari I will go in front of them in the evening. Neelu left the house silently. Nilu’s fiancুটe Rehana was fishing in the kitchen. On college days, Nilu sits and talks in the name of helping with cooking. Today Neelu saw Rehana Bhabhi’s face serious. As soon as he came and sat next to Neelu, he said, your brother slapped me last night.
Do you believe in blue? Neelu was stunned. Rehana said, how can I spend that day when you get married and leave. Neelu said, grandfather is an inhuman. This has happened in the future due to lack of money. You don’t mind No, what do you think? I don’t have so much ragtag. The two sat in silence for a long time. Rehana once said, your brother has vowed five rupees. If they like you, they will give five rupees to the fakir.
Neelu did not say anything. Rehana said, I must like it. If you don’t like me, who will? Are you like me How many people that saw me blue, no one likes. In the end your brother liked it. He doesn’t understand Sundartundar. Neelu laughed. Rehana said, will you have tea? Neelu did not answer. Will you have another chance to have tea? Will be the wife of the rich. Mama said they had two cars. Used by a boys, girls of a house. Neelu remained silent.
Rehana said one of the boy’s uncles is a High Court judge. What will I do with the High Court judge? What you say is blue, it makes you smile. From noon, Nilu’s grandfather began to walk around in a serious manner. He seemed very worried. Neelu couldn’t think why Dada was so worried about this little thing. Is it necessary to do this if a boy has a job in Mota Mine and he has a house in Dhaka city? For no reason, Rehana started threatening Nilu’s grandfather.
I told him to bring flowers in a vase. Understand this is a sample of house cleaning? Couldn’t keep the tablecloth ironed? Nilu’s great-uncle explained to him many times how to enter the house with salutations. Tea should be served in a gentle manner. If you ask something, you have to answer in very few words. Nilu started crying. Mami came in the afternoon to get dressed. Before evening, Neelu sat down in a daze. Nothing happened as horrible as it seemed. The boy’s father said in a very soft voice, what is your mother’s name? Nilanjana.
Very poetic name. Who kept it? Dad. He asked nothing more. He started talking to Nilu’s uncle about the current situation in the country. The boy himself came. Neelu could not even look up at him. When Neelu was leaving after the tea party, he heard a lady saying, “We like it very much.” Do you have any difficulty in getting married in August? Nilu’s ears began to tingle.
Rehana was sitting in the kitchen. Seeing Neelu, he said, the tip has broken into two pieces. My throat is getting dry thinking what to do if your brother hears. What an omen. Oma why are you crying, what happened? Neelu almost ran and hugged his sister-in-law and said, “I will marry Ranju Bhai.” I want to die. You tell grandpa. Me? I do not have the courage. Alas, what do I do? Silent blue silent. Feel good.
What is the need to know now. I can’t think of a future. Neelu did not go to college for a few days. When the first day passed after seven days, the girls in the class were surprised and said, you have become very thin. Ill or not? He remained silent. What a round face you had, how tall you are now. But you look pretty brother. Nilur did not mind in class. Neelu stood up to the astonishment of the students when Anil Sir of History started teaching Gupta Dynasty in a sleepy tone. Sir my body is feeling very bad.
Let’s go home. Anil Sir became extra busy. Worse? Take a friend with you? No sir, I will go alone. Neelu came out with tired legs and saw Ranju standing in front of the college gate. Dry mouth. A piece of paper in hand. For the last three days I have been coming to your college once a day. Neelu said, I have not come these days, my body is not good. The two of them huddled side by side for a while. Then Ranju suddenly stood up and said, your wedding on August 9? Who said that? You printed the card.
I saw your wedding card at Rebar. Neelu remained silent. Ranju was so excited that he simply could not speak. Somehow he said, I couldn’t believe it even after seeing the card. You say it in your own mouth. Neelu said softly, not really. I will marry you. When? Today. Ranju was stunned and said, your head is not right Nilu. The head is fine. I don’t know how people get married in court. Ranju said, let’s go to my mess. Listen to everything that happened.
He took Nilu’s hand. Nilu has visited Ranju’s new platoon mess many times before. He spent a lot of time sitting in the heat of the afternoon talking but never sweated as much as he does today. Ranju said, your body is bad blue, sweating a lot. Nothing happened to me. Have tea? Would you like some tea? Uh-huh. Drink water. Ranju came with a glass of water and saw Neelu sitting with her arms and legs folded. The eyes are slightly reddish. He took a glass of water in his hand and said in a broken voice, “Reba showed you my wedding card?” Hmmm.
I told him to bring flowers in a vase. Understand this is a sample of house cleaning? Couldn’t keep the tablecloth ironed? Nilu’s great-uncle explained to him many times how to enter the house with salutations. Tea should be served in a gentle manner. If you ask something, you have to answer in very few words.

Take a rest Neelu got on the rickshaw and started sobbing. Will i come with you Deliver home? Uh-huh.
Many people saw Neelu reach home. My aunt came from Hiranpur. There was a lot of noise at home on the occasion of marriage. Neelu began to walk around loosely. Sejo sat down to tea in the evening and laughed loudly when he heard his aunt’s laughter. But at night it was different. When everyone fell asleep, Neelu went to his grandfather’s house and pushed him.
Rehana came out and said in surprise, what happened to Neelu? Neelu said in a hushed voice, Bhabhi is in big trouble. Rehana took Nilu’s hand. He said in a soft voice, will you call your grandfather? Talk to him? Call. Nilu’s grandfather woke up immediately. Surprised, he said, what happened to Ray Neelu? Neelu said, nothing happened, grandfather. You sleep Tears welled up in his eyes.
