They came before sunset.
A huge team. No marching at all. They are coming disorient. Probably came from huge distance. Some of them are falling for exhausting tiredness. Face full of sweat, wearing dusk, dusk uniform.
Almost every village people hid themselves. Only mad Bodi approached with a smiley face. He asked with,
“What’s the matter”.
The entire team half in a second. Mad Bodi was carrying a red towel. He was waving towel and yielding. ” Where are you going”. He hasn’t seen such weird thing.
Mr.Major was wearing a sunglass. He put out his sunglass speaking in English saying that “what he is saying”. Rafiquddin said that “ may be he is mad”. We all at least have a mad man in our village.
“Really”?
“Yes Sir “.
“How did you understand he is a mad man”?
Rafiquddin get silent. Mr.Major had a twisted habit. He brings out ten meaning of a single word. Mad Bodi was seen coming running. His face was full of smile. Rafiq shouted,” Hey what do you want “. Mad Bodi spread his smile. Rafiq wiped his forehead sweat. Said in thise voice “sir the man is mad. Our every village has a……………………………..
You said this before. You don’t need say it twice.
Rafiq got scared. Mr. Major saidin a calm voice.” I like this place. Let’s rest a bit. Everyone is tired”.
After five miles you will find Nabinogor. A huge market. A police camp. Sir it is better to go Nabinogor before sunset.” Why? Are you afraid”.
Mr. Major said something towards the team. A slight response. Everyone took a easy stance in a second. Taking off their heavy helmets. Mr. Major said in a low voice.” Lets tie up the Mad”. He sat on a wooden box and lighted his pipe. Pipe doesn’t in uniform. But this Major is very handsome. Everything suits in his mouth.
The Mad was tied against the mango tree. He wasn’t showing and objection. Rather staying close made his happy. No one was notice him. They were very tired. Their sight were uninterested and without mood.
Mr. Major sipped some water from bottle. Untied his Boots. There was blister in left heel. Rafiq said” will you have some coconut”, Mr. Major not replying that question said in clam voice.” Before we came to any village a small team always comes with a Pakistani flage. Now they don’t come. Do you know why”?
“No sir I don’t “
They don’t come in fear. They are all hiding in the jungle. Isn’t it.?
Rafiq didn’t answer. Mad Bodi said” I want to drink some water”.
“ What does he want”?
He want to have some water from the bottle.
Everyone was able to run but master Aziz wasn’t. Because his younger sister came from sonapota. That morning she was having delivery pain. Such kind of person can’t run. Through master Aziz said twice “we can take her to shamgonj”. In reply his mother reproached him for his cowarness. She compared master Aziz with a crippled cat. Master Aziz didn’t protest. Because it was the truth. He is very coward. Since the military infiltrated the village he is visiting the washroom very often. He is sitting in the yard. And getting scared in slightest sound.
“Is master in the house”?
“Who”?
“We, Did you here. Mad Bodi was tied against the mango tree”.
“Yes we heard it”.
Some elder person of Nilgonj came to the yard sacredly.
“Master you should go”?
“Where”?
Dobir Miya not replying said in clam voice, who will go without you? You know English. You know standard language.
“You want me to go to the military”?
“ Yes ”
“What will I do going there”
You will tell there is no problem in this village.
Take the Pakistani mark with you. Don’t be afraid. Master did not say anything for a long time. Mr.Dobir said with irritation “why don’t you say something”. “How can I go”? A huge problem in the house. Puti will have a child. “You have nothing to do master. You are not a doctor”. Master said in calm voice. Where can I find Pakistani flag .
I threw it away.
You threw away? Why?
Master didn’t reply. Mr.Dobir said with anger. Is it enough only to pass I A. You don’t have any brain. Why did you throw the flag. What will you do now? Go in empty hand. I am afraid son.
No need afraid. They are not tiger or bears. You go and behave friendly say something.
That is fair.
Don’t be late. Go before sundown.
“ Alone “?
