Bondita's pov:
Somnath had left his last breath Infront of our eyes..and senior DSP officer had arrested Purandhar and his goons and taken away both of them.
After everything is finished now my body started aching because Purandhar and his goons had hit me hardly. It's really hurting inside but still I gathered patience because poornima and shorbari needs me. May be after everyone had slept I will take strong tablet and sleep. Till then I have to bear this pain and I am enduring it remembering my patibabu love because his thoughts itself gives me more strength.
I gained courage and holding poornima and shorbari who are sleeping in my arms
Ksj is crying by seeing Somnath corpse that : He had taken granted of my love and had tried to do child marriage for our poornima.
Approaching near Somnath corpse ksj vent out his pain of anger and grief by shooking his body: Kyu Somnath kyu kiya tumne Aisa (why Somnath why did you do this) In three of your childhood days Anirudh was the one who was always been facing partiality and reprimands, taunts from your baba and it is you who was being pampered by him all the time but you turned on this way..
Binoy: Da... control yourself. Actually It is a kind of punishment and hard hitting lesson to me, I deserve this because I used to taunt Anirudh in his childhood, teenage days and used to announce proudly by showing this Somnath that: Dekho ...my second son is more efficient than my eldest son.
And to Anirudh I always used to taunt that : Learn something from your younger brother.
But see how situation is reversed. This is the punishment from Destiny I have received.. for my ego and attitude and for showing partiality in upbringing in between brothers and also not cooperating with my wife
It is we both should have taken care of children equally and I should have respected Shubhra infront of children's eyes. By seeing me respecting a woman and my wife may be Somnath could have learnt manners and have respected women . God had punished me and Somnath by taking hon away.I asked both of them to control themselves. Poornima is already crying by seeing blood on Somnath body and her two grandfathers crying and they both brothers got into reality .
Ksj came and picked up poornima and asked sasurji: Binoy! Go and talk to Inspector we have to take him to our home to do arrangements for his final rites.
Binoy : why final rites da? Let his body be dumped in garbage. Police will do that
But ksj didn't agree and told that a corpse should be given farewell as per rituals he is already dead and let our hatred also be gone with his body.
Sasurji agreed reluctantly and about to go but Just then DSP sir had asked everyone of us to come to station and give statement. Somnath body is to be taken to post mortem and after that they will send his body to home
I was looking for that little girl parents and asked a constable to bring her parents or relatives.
One old lady came and told that : She is Shorbari. Her parents are dead recently.. her paternal uncle and aunt have sold her to Purandhar and left this area. Now she had no one
I was moved away listening this and embraced her tightly in my arms and hidden her in my pallu. How cruel is this world?
Later we all reached police station and gave statement about the incident . Shorbari is crying continuously and scared of new faces.. I can understand her pain and I tried to control her. After a lot of crying she felt comfortable with me by seeing poornima trying to speak to her and by looking at me . May be she got belief on me
Ksj : Inspector Saab you take this little girl with you and try to find out her relatives and send her back to them. We will leave with our bahu and granddaughter.
