ENIGMA- 2

Disintegrated Tale

"Each narrative showcases multiple perspectives, however, what implications arise when the story is fragmented into various segments?"

"|Rooptarashi re kuheli Bolbona tumi amar Majhe majhe kotha jay Kalo kalo jangale Jodi na dhore rakho more Tumi niye jabe akashe|"

[Oh, cuckoo, with your beautiful form You never say you're mine In between, words sometimes flow In the dark forest If you don't hold me You will take me to the sky]

(1786' March Calcutta, Manzilabad)

[The alleys were packed, ladies were wrapped in Tant sari, busy in gossip, and the umbrella covered their existence; the street was dishevelled by the rainwater. In all that, a four-wheeled carriage which was drawn by horses stopped a the threshold of the dilapidated house. I came out with a bag in hand, my countenance was covered with an ascot cap, the cigar was steaming and I went inside the house.

Upon entering the room, the odour smell surrounded existence; I inquired about the smell, but the kami Bai laughed and told me, "Sahab, you don't know or you don't want to know; what place is this?" I ignored her and placed my bag on the Pembroke table. But in all that, a voice called Kami Bai, and she left. I saw a girl, her name was Oorja De, she was peeping from the old balcony; I asked her, "How are you? Dear," She slightly bent his head and blinked her Great eyes. In all that, a voice called her, and she again turned herself, and my face was facing her back.

She asked, "What?" That person asked about her Bimru, and she said in a tone which was accentuated by the giggling "Kya gadhe bhi khalihaan mein rehte hain?"[Do donkeys also live in the barn?] The man said, "Agar tum jesi chiriya pinjare mein rehti hain toh, gadhe kyu nhi. Wase mere paas waqt nhi hai jaldi baatao" ["If birds like you live in a cage, then why not donkeys? I don't have time, tell me quickly."] She instructed him in sign language. Before the man left, he turned and said, "Bindi la gaya karo tum par acha lagta hai" [You should wear a bindi; it looks good on you.]

In all that, the sound of a gunshot echoed in the infamous area of Calcutta Sonagachi, I and my worker ran to save our lives.

This much I remember, about that of 1780 when I visited the infamous place, and why you are too curious about that years. Mr Prayambad, It's 1786, man.]

The whole scenario Mr Bakshi narrated to the young and curious writer Prayambad. [Mr Bakshi was a philanthropist who always wanted to save girls from this cruel world after losing his daughter] After listening to the whole scenario he demonstrated his gratitude and left the place.

Prayambad and his friend decided to visit the Infamous area called Sonagachi.

1786' March Calcutta

The heinous act broke out in the European Lunatic Asylum, and the nearby local's terror became deeper and stronger. A newly posted cop arrived at the Asylum, upon being questioned by psychiatrists, he represented himself as Rasool Abid.

He analyses the heinous act and orders his constable to note it down.

"The heinous act"

One of the mental patients(female) got sexually assaulted, and the Asylum was clueless about this incident when it happened.

Upon Rasool's investigation of the nearby individuals, one of them recounted a harrowing tale to Rasool. The stranger individual claimed that every night, a woman would arrive wielding a peculiar weapon and would proceed to eliminate the Zamindar or Talukdar. He ignored them as he thought they were illiterate and fools. And then Rasool left to recount more aspects.
