Soliloquy of Life
“Everything will be fine”. He consoles himself.
Fine? He gets hysterical.
Because he also knows that nothing will be fine. From his childhood he had learned this statement and thinks what sort of life he had. Aryaam Chattopadhyay.
He was.
A successful business man, who had never seen the struggles of life before. This situation reminds him of the famous phrase “All is Well”. But perhaps he persuades himself. In his office he was a king like man. He ruled over the people there. But he could not rule over the hearts.
Aryaam Chattopadhyay.
But now,
Now he is only Aonu. ‘Aonu’ was for his relatives and friends. And today one of these categories makes him Aonu. He is not at all Aryaam Chattopadhyay. A man who had never paid attention to his parents.
His parents have left the ‘House’.
Forever.
Things were getting worse and worse in office also. Now Aonu realizes the importance of home and the home men.
“Everything will be fine” with a share of negativity this statement constantly bangs his heart.
“They should have pondered over my situation once.” He feels.
“I was earning for them after all.”
“Really?” His heart denies.
[The conflict between mind and heart had been felt.]
“They had never understood my aspiration. I wanted to get first class in M.B.A and I have got it.”
“Yes, I have got.”
“They expected me to get degrees of M.A with Literature and then PHD.”
“Why… Today I have come to know.”
Silence
“Hey look at the bird mamma it is flying in the sky.”
“Dady… give me that binocular.”
“Oh it’s a wonderful sight. Isn’t it?”
“Mamma, Will you leave me ever?”
