Anirudh's POV:
I took Bondita in my arms , made her lay in car back seat and sheets are kept under her so that she won't feel embarrassed that seats are stained. I don't feel any ackward if stains are formed as it is a natural thing because she is not prepared for it, but she won't face me or anyone if any ackward situations occur.
I drove the car speedily and We reached home very soon.
(Bondita's pov: All through the journey my heart is jumping in cloud nine, Patibabu is back, what else do I want? I thanked Durga maa in mind that she helped me and done justice. My abdomen is paining and body is having light temperature as I have continuously roamed in scorching days of summer, but nothing is bothering me right now. He lifted me , kept me near to his chest , what else do I want.
Sorry Durga maa! Please forgive me for these dirty thoughts of staying physically close to my Patibabu, I have been trying to get rid of these thoughts but his proximity is creating sensation inside me, which I am not able to understand )
My heart is feeling her pain - she is in her periods, her first period and that bloody monster had tried to touch my Bondita even in this condition also. How can any man force a woman when she is not willing him , when she is crying and when she is disgusted with him. Why don't these kind of monsters consider woman's consent is important?
I took her to her room, made her lay on bed and about to move. She stopped me and embraced me, shedding tears that I am back from jail and returned safely. I too stayed in her embrace carressing her head and stayed for a while. How can we live without eachother?
I also became emotional for her. She kept her life, her respect in risk for me. If it is normal situation I would have shouted on her for doing this adventurous act. But now she is not well,her body is warm, it seems like she is having temperature on top of periods. When I am about to move again, she didn't leave me and asked me to stay with her.
I said her softly by patting her head that : Bondita, you are bleeding. I should arrange something to stop getting stained. I am here only. I am just calling Koyli. Just give me few minutes, I am near to this room door only and I will be back.
She nodded and I shouted for Koyli.
She came and I told her that Bondita got her first periods and asked her to make napkins for Bondita. She didn't get it. I had given a cloth which can soak more water and cotton to stitch napkins for Bondita. Koyli is highly embarrassed to listen to it and do what I say. But I sternly told that there is nothing to feel ackward about it. If she being an elder woman is embarrassed herself who will explain to younger girls.
Infact I have learnt this process of napkins making long back ago for Bondita when doctor told that Bondita is healthy and can get her periods any time. I have studied various books and learnt how to take care of her. Thank God that she didn't get her periods when I am not here.
Bondita changed her saree and slowly started walking. I asked her with concern that why did you get up.
She told that she got her periods and may be she need to stay in an isolated room as it's a ritual that she is not allowed to sit in room and touch everything.
I cut her words in middle and said sternly it's not like that Bondita. It's a part of your body and you should not stay isolated. It's not required to stay isolated, sit and sleep on floor. You can do all your works normally like how you used to do your works regularly.
She tried to argue that in these days she can't do puja, can't go to kitchen, all. I asked her to stay in room and take rest which she is needed right now. I told her that she can chant Durga maa name in mind which she need not stop at any stage. She silently agreed.
