Third Story : Call from Eternity

Something is wrong! Every time I pick up the telephone ……. the voice on the other side tells me an old story in a husky voice. When I ask about her number, the old woman stops speaking a word. I could not remember but could faintly recognize her voice. It seems very close to me, but why, I can’t remember her? Was it, that I visited a place called Jotishpur about more than a decade ago in one of my weekend outings? It was near Rupnarayanpur named by the river Rupnarayan, in between the districts of Howrah and Midnapore. I visited a childhood friend, who invited me to spend some time with him. I stayed there for about a week, on an evening stroll in the surroundings of the house, I unexpectedly went a little far. I was feeling that someone was calling me from within myself, to go there. The other side of the town of Rupnaryanpur is also called Jotishpur and I came there, quite unexpectedly during the evening walk. It’s the month of November coming to an end and during morning and the evening cold is being felt. In this Mo fusil area the cold is felt much more than in Kolkata. While walking, I reached a field and beyond it saw some bushes and trees and a broken house in a very deplorable state. Since, winter is gradually setting in and a small town so both traffic and people are becoming less visible. I hurriedly crossed the field; the boys have already left the place after their game. The place is almost deserted; after crossing the field and negotiating the bushes and trees, reached the basement of this massive palatial building. Almost a destroyed house, I met an old woman there, all of a sudden.

She asked me, “Where you have you been all these years?” but I was unable to recognize her. She again asked, “Why you were so late, in coming here?” She touched my hand and I felt a shiver, running down my spine. Her hands were cold as snow and I gradually lost my consciousness and fell down on the ground. I did not know how long I was lying there? My consciousness came back when my friend Sridhar came calling to rescue me with some of his local friends. I was feeling a pain on the back of my head and saw at a distance that old woman waving me and disappearing among the broken walls. Returning to my friend’s place, after dinner went to sleep. In the very early hours of the morning, a dream almost engulfed me. I saw myself as a zamindar’s youngest son and was looked after by a middle aged maid. I could recognize gradually the face of that maid and found resemblance with that old woman, I met. She took great care of me, since my mother was sick and my father left me at a very young age. I saw everything in my dreams.


Later, the rest of the week I stayed there visited that haunted house and heard some female voice calling me from a distance but never got the sight of that woman. The voice resembled that woman. I heard from the local people and my friend that this was a Zamindar’s palace. They were said to be related to the Chand Saud agar’s family of ancient Bengal and they practiced the ritual of not worshipping, the snake goddess Manasha. So they were cursed and any one member of the family would be bitten by snake bite. It was my father’s turn and he was bitten by a king cobra while inspecting the renovation work of a lake in our village. He died within a few minutes in spite of providing the best of health care of that time. I remember all the events in my dream and they come one by one. I also see that old woman calling by my name,”khoka”, long ago called by my mother who is too old to remember those things. When I asked my mother after returning from my friend’s place. She seemed mesmerized and reclosed herself into deep thinking. Later at the dining table at night, she asked me about the description of the old woman in her standard weak and feeble voice. She said that long ago about two hundred and fifty years ago, these events took place, but how I am related to it is quite impossible to her to understand?  It seemed that I was related to that place from my previous birth. My mother also recalled the same thing and said that old woman is present at that place as a spirit and has no physical presence. This left me totally dumb-struck, even on reaching and in my sleep, I saw that woman. The last and the most awkward thing happening for the last month or so is getting phone calls and the voice on the opposite side is of that woman. I am getting increasing helpless and feeling psychologically weak. I am feeling that woman is trying to hypnotize me and eventually kill me. But my wife and my mother is assuring me that, since she loved me so she will not harm me but is trying to influence me to unearth some mystery. So one day, taking a few days’ leave from my writing job, me, my wife and my friend along with a local priest went there. We dig out the place where the old woman disappeared and found an ancient skeleton in a very deplorable condition at about two feet below. We cremated it and performed the holy rituals and left the place. That very night, in my dreams she came and blessed and congratulated me for this noble deed and she also said that I did the true job of a son, tears flowed down my cheeks and I went up.

Second Story : A BIT OF HAPPINESS

Dave was surfing through his favorite pages of Wikileaks, when the camera pans out to focus on Tia, who is just to enter the café. She is standing on the opposite footpath, waiting for the traffic lights to turn green. She is quite happy today; her dad has accepted her proposal of marrying Dave, an Archeological research scholar. Dave never proposed to Tia but she liked her, not that usual girl on the street always enjoying their private life. Tia has often visited Dave’s home and has great respect and love for his mother. Her mom also accepted her quite easily. They both are a bit conservative on their approach to life. They greatly admire family values; Dave’s life was almost surrounded by his mom before Tia came to his life. They met at college five to six years ago at a thanks giving ceremony; Tia is a bit junior to Dave, which helped them to make a great match. Dave feels a sense of responsibility upon Tia, which she really likes. Though they are about five years apart but Tia deeply loves Dave. She realized this when her father suddenly fell ill and met a heart attack. Dave took responsibility of his treatment and care along with his friend. That was the time when they both came closer and naturally fell in love. Tia's parents also liked Dave’s responsibility towards them and Tia since she is their only child. Dave would frequently visit Tia's home to hear about her father’s health. Both the families gradually came close to each other and supported in hour of need. Tale full of sorrow was their daily routine suddenly changed into the slender breeze of happiness. The camera as an object zooms in and out to focus into the center of this relationship.

They first met at this same café then they again rediscovered themselves in college. Gradually as their relationship grew, came their parents. Tia took the first step when she visited Dave’s sick mother and took care of her. On her first visit to Dave’s home she turned things in her favor. Her words and actions really touched the old lady. Tia cooked a great meal for the mother and son duo and also shared it with them too. The "hub" as the café is popularly called among the young generations is a great nesting ground for the whole college going lot. They would spend odd hours there discussing various things among them. The "hub" is always bubbling with life and this drew some old intellectuals into the den. The camera focuses on every aspect and zooms in to some details of a few members of the café. The owner of the café enjoys the company of almost every visitor and takes personal care of them. She is an old lady assisted by her older husband in properly running and managing the café. This old couple tries their best to spread the theme of happiness and love among all their customers by giving a bit of emotional support. They are a childless couple but enjoy the company of young people. They got actively involved in making the relationship between Dave and Tia a reality. They encouraged them by mentioning previous events of similar kind. They feel proud of themselves and preach that ‘try to make a relation but do not break it'.

Happiness should be in every piece of life. One must not lose hope at all, there is always light at the end of the tunnel. This message is being tried to convey through the lines of this story. Dave and Tia, the old couple managing the internet café are all examples of this happiness. The old couple lost their only child, their son a fighter pilot, who was killed in an air crash in the Kargil war. But over the last ten years, they lived only by watching their grandson grow up in front of their eyes. Little Rehan was only a month old when his father left them for a fighting mission in Jammu and Kashmir. Her mother was greatly supported by her in laws and she feels about them more than her own parents. After a few days of their son’s demise they started the internet cafe and Rehan and his mother would frequently come to support the business. Now, Rehan is a young man of about twelve years old. Taking time out of her studies she comes to support his grandpa and grandma. Her mother, Ruma also comes in order to support the business. They all know that little Rehan is their only source of happiness of living in this world. Rajiv's parents tried to marry off Ruma, since she is too young to carry her life alone. But after the news of conceiving Rehan came she totally withdrew from that idea. She cried by their feet of not throwing her out with little Rehan. She said that she got everything in this little house, happiness, sorrow and love so she cannot leave them in her present lifetime. The camera zooms in to focus on the expressions of each character.
