Is There Any Poison Left?
was sitting with my mother in the end of the judgement hall.The cloudyhard voice of the judge was flying in the long corridor.'Mr.zaman,didn't raped Miss Rabeya khatun.So The court gives him full respectful unprisonment and Commands the police to arrest Rabeya for making an false police case against mr.zaman.''
Rabeya,My sister,started working in mr.zaman's house till her 14.She was healthy,Bright and Smart.But poverty insisted her to work on mr.zaman's house.Last month,we found her pregnent.She had mr.zamans baby in her womb.Than everything happened.we abortioned her,Made a police case against mr.zaman.He got arrested, but after the police get something that can buy enything from mr.zaman,everything get changed.They destroyed every medical report and discovered some amazing dramatists who can write it out that Rabeya is a characterless girl.
Rabeya was taken to the Jail.She just had her 18.Mother made mango bars for her.She was crying and crying. It become hard for me to stop her.After holding many person's legs we get able to meet Rabeya,She came in front of the inspector's room,The inspector got out,He ffelt bored seeing people crying.Nothing of her body was like past without her smile.The smile what repreasents Injustice,poverty and many unfulfilled dreams.'brother,where are the babies come from?' she used to ask me in her childhood,'from the god,he gives every mother a baby to play with them' I replied many times.'When will my baby would come?'rabeya started jumping with joy,'will they play with me?''will they can call me mother?' those questions which can be asked by a girl only in her childhood.
Mother-Rabeya,Hug,Cry,cry, cry......It is to hard to write down the sound of their crying..we can't write everything,can everything be writed down?!?
'I made something for you,after crying my mother said' Rabeya smiled,the smile of having a surprise,'what?' 'Mangobars!"mother replied with some extra stroke on the word.Rabeya didn't said anything,her eyes get blured by tears,did she felt nostalgic? i think she felt..she started saying,-"-can you remember mother in those stormy days of april Me and brother used to go under the mango tree of Parul's father? My saree get full of sour mangoes and You made mangobars with them?I always asked you to add sugar to make them sweet, but you never did that, yah,it's right that we didn't had much sugars,but in the time of prisonment,I realized that,we have to fulfill our every small dreams,every single dreams which we can touch we have to fulfill them,After the golden days of Spring,None of them would wait for me or anyone"
Rabeya was not like that.Jail and prisonment changes everyone.Every single one meets him /herself in the prison,Dark Days and tearfull nights makes everyone nostalgic.
"Did,you added sugar this time?-rabeya asked mother pointing to the black polythin bag in her hand."Taste it yourself,mother replied with sparkling tears in her eyes with many many lines of ageing.
Rabeya opened thr knot,tore a piece,took it on her mouth,started chewing! She acted like that it feels very bad to eat,but only said'no sugar also this time, more sour"with her smile,one of a kind.Mother torn a piece, chewed.I asked them to take some,but mother forbade me to take,why I don't know,I never do anything against my mother says.
"Does the poison felts very sour?'-thousand bombs get blasted at that time when mother said those words..Everything get cleared to me,mother made those mangobars with some of the poisons which we use in our fields to kill bitles.Rabeya got astonished,but after some seaconds the treadmark smile on her face get back,'yah,but not as sour as the hands of zaman,or the words of the the neighbours who insisted you to send me in the brothel!' I was speechless.They started laughing,it ecoed many times in the dirty walls of the jail,an inspector came suddenly'hey,what's happening here! You Have no time left for visit,go out", he said looking to mother.'Yah,It's the time to go"mother said to the insoector.There were no expression in her face,only those lines of ageing was saying that" It's a quiet ironic words mr inspector! "
Mother and Rabeya lied down,The heartbeat of them stopped in few seaconds..Rabeya had her smile on her face.My mother,Was she sleeping?i don't know! I started running towards my home,my broken tin shade home,Where i was born and brought up,where I played with my little sister,No memory,no emotion,I was running to have the bottle of the poison.It it still some poison in the bottle to kill me?
At last I found it,250 ml, small size,Plstic bottle.
It is now in my hand,what should I do?Is there life worth anything there where justice can be bought by money?
