Anirudh's POV:-

"Tumhe nahi lagta ki ye bahut kathin kaam hai? " I heard kaka whispering to Bondita.

Kaam? Which kaam?

"Haan kaka sasur ji, kathin toh hai par zaruri bhi" Bondita said to him.

"Aisa konsa kaam hai jiske baare main mujhe nahi pata? " I muttered to myself.

"Anirudh" Manorama called me. I turned back and gestured her to be quiet. She looked confused. She mouthed, "Kya hua?"

I pointed towards the side where kaka and Bondita were conversing but to my surprise no one was there. "Are abhi toh yahi the" I said to myself. I felt a hand at my shoulder, thinking it to be Manorama I ignored her and removed her hand. I again felt a hand and irritatedly removed it. She again kept her hand and now I had enough, I turned angrily

"Manorama tum...... " I stopped when I saw Kaka glaring at me. I turned towards the place where they were before and again turned at him to confirm.

"Kaka aap? " I said timidly.

"Haan hum! Aur kya kar rahe the tum yaha? Humari aur bahu ki bataein sun rahe the tum? " Kaka roared at me.

"Na... Nahi toh.... Main kaha kisi ki baat sun raha tha " I gave a nervous smile and went from there.



Whole day I was busy thinking that which kaam Bondita was talking about but was not able to get it. She have really changed a lot. She didn't even tells me if she has any problem. But isn't it the thing which I wanted. I wanted her to solve all her problems by herself but why now I am feeling very hurt when she stopped conversing to me.

It's been almost 3 weeks after that incident. She stopped talking to me. Whenever she would see me, her smile may vanish. She even started behaving too formally with me. She would only come to me if it's very necessary or it's any work related to school.

At night, Manorama came in the room.

"Kya hua Anirudh? Kuchh pareshaan lag rahe ho"

"Hmm"

"Kya baat hai, tum mujhe bata sakte ho"

"Manorama! aaj subah Kaka aur Bondita kisi kaam ke baare main baat kar rahe the. Aur kaka keh rahe the ki ye bahut kathin kaam hai"

"Tum chinta mat karo Anirudh. Trilochan kaka bahut pyaar karte hain Bondita se, vo use koi bhi khatarnaak kaam nahi karne denge"

"Nahi Manorama tum nahi jaanti ki Bondita ke liye kaka ko manana chutkiyon ka kaam hai"

"Tum fikar mat karo kuchh nahi hoga. "

"Hm vaise tumhari muhim ke liye tumne tayyari karli? "

"Haan ab bas muhim vaale din ka intezaar hai. Lekin.. "

"Lekin kya? " I asked her confused.

"Lekin ye ki abhi khabar mili hai ki bahar dange honge toh pata nahi ki muhim mein kitna vakt lagega " She said worriedly.

"Tum chinta mat karo. Par kuchh din ke liye bahar mat jaana maine bhi suna hai ki pure bharat main angrezo ne krantikariyon par hamla kar diya hai. "

"Haan ab bas kaise bhi mujhe angrezo ke agle kadam ke baare main pata karna hai. "

I nodded.

We both went to sleep but I was not able to sleep. I was just thinking that which work Bondita is going to do. What if she may hurt her. I have to find out what is cooking in her mind and for that I have to keep an eye on her. Soon I drifted to sleep.

In the morning I secretly followed Bondita and Batuk to their school. After few hours, the school was over. I saw children coming out of the school. I spotted Bondita and Batuk with 2 boys, laughing and giggling. Unknown to me, I felt jealous of those boys. After bidding an adieu to their friends, Bondita and Batuk started walking towards the home. I followed them for sometime and I didn't found anything suspicious.

I thought of going back but then I saw Bondita and Batuk changing their paths. I was shocked.

Where is she going?

I followed her. She seemed very alert, checking again and again if someone is looking at her. I felt like someone is behind me so I turned back but none was there. I turned again to look at her but she disappeared. How? Just now she was here only. Where she can go? I searched for her but didn't found her. I went back at home, disappointedly.
