Few wet eyes and a dream

There is beauty in the story, there is reality. Today I will talk about a life from the story of millions of lives in these two combinations.

When the hard reality wants to swallow people, the subconscious mind takes refuge in surrealism and keeps itself alive. There are so many hardships that one day no one can be told, no one is told or no one can be found to understand the heartbeat. You have to smile while holding your own pains. Laughter changes the cover of the face, it does not reduce the sadness of the mind. There is no time to cry in the light of day. One day, in the darkness of the night, the tears on the pillow look like poisonous snakes. In the face of the hope that is blazing like light, you have to keep it with your hands hidden so that the hope does not go out. Millions of expatriates who have left the country are living in that Ashatukur.

The life of human beings is not that of birds. Again, the life of birds is not that of trees. Yet everything is life. Proud of different tastes, colors, forms, love and affection.

For a long time, Salauddin was anxious to come abroad. This instability was the need of the world. Salauddin's father worked a small job in a corporate office. A penny or salary. Himshim has to eat every month to run the family. Running a family means arranging three meals a day. Two Eid children's pants shirts, salwar kameez and four thick yarn saris for the wife. Mr. Hamed could never do anything for anyone more than this.

Mr. Hamed's face would get dirty whenever he got a hint of any extra cost. He used to say in a low voice, you have to go to the ceremony, otherwise you can't? Salauddin, you have to buy a pair of shoes this month, father? Salauddin used to look at his father's face in surprise.

When Dad returned home after a long day at the office to earn a little extra money, he was tired. Still, Dad used to look at his mother's face and smile. Pulling up a chair and bringing a glass of cold water, my mother used to say, take a little jiriye. I make a cup of tea.

Dad used to look at his mother's face and ask, is there sugar in the house?

Mother did not say anything. He would bow his head and go to another room. Salauddin stared in amazement. But he could not say anything. Dad used to say, study with the mind.

But Salauddin did not pay attention to his studies. How much have the Lipu brothers done abroad? Where they are not so educated. Salauddin was admitted to a government college only after passing SSC. Political instability across the country. Fighting between the two big teams. Yaba has spread everywhere in cities and villages. Intoxication is spreading among college boys. Salauddin's parents are very worried about him.

At one such time Salauddin said to his mother, "Mother, I will go abroad."

At first the mother was looking at Salauddin in surprise. And hearing that, my father became anxious. He stared at the sky for a long time with the gap in the grill.

From then on, a thought started in everyone. The script is getting bigger day by day. Honors final two years later. Being of marriageable age. Another house needs to be built. You have to spend some money on your daughter's wedding. It would be better to send the boy abroad. What happens in today's world without money. In this country, there is nothing to be found except honest people's ridicule and kindness. Everything costs money. The way the price of goods is going up, after a while you have to die without eating.

But if you go abroad or go to any country. It will cost a lot of money to go to Europe-America. Without it, it is not easy to go there legally. And it will not be possible to raise so much money. It would be nice to go to Saudi Arabia. The country of the Prophet (peace be upon him). If you want, you can go to Mecca and Medina. There is an environment for fasting prayers. The use of pickles will be good.

The problem is that visas were closed in Saudi Arabia at that time. However, it is heard that the visa will be introduced again. There are various reports from the Bangladesh government about the introduction of visas. Mr. Hamed used to talk to his relatives. Want help Someone said, what will the boy do when he goes. Work on the construction side there. Again, some people said with hope, ten-twenty thousand can be given when needed. This is how it goes. Suddenly it is heard that Saudi Arabian visa has been introduced. People started going again. Visa prices have also come down, you can only go if you have six lakh rupees. It's like getting the moon in hand!

But no one wanted to understand the reason for the drop in visa prices. Salauddin is one of them. Many people think that when they go abroad, they understand that they have a lot of money. Again, many know that Saudi is not the same as before. The state of the economy is extremely bad. All the big projects are closed, war is going on with the neighboring country. The government has also increased the price of fuel oil inside the country.

But many do not listen to these. There will be some arrangements in the way and in the country. People who sell visas also talk about the various benefits. But after coming to Saudi Arabia, the real facts came to light. The look of those who had hoped changed. Only the sky seems to belong to you. It looks exactly like Bangladesh.

Salauddin came to Saudi Arabia after borrowing almost all the money. When he said goodbye, he hugged his mother and cried a lot. Couldn't say anything in the face. Made a dream room inside the chest. He will earn money and buy a good sari for his mother. Mother could not wear a good sari any day. Sister's wedding will cost a lot of money. Don't let Dad hurt you anymore. There will be no shortage in the world. A small building also needs to be done. Parents will stay in that room. The younger brother has to go to a good school. I need money.

Everything is tolerated, only mother's cry and father's dirty is not tolerated by Salauddin. If you can bring a smile on the face of these people, what will happen if you study so much. It is better to come abroad and earn money and give them a little peace.

There is no price for regret, tears and requests to reality.

Salauddin has come close to that reality. But in order to save himself, his subconscious mind takes refuge in surrealism. His mind wanders with him in all the strange dreams. Sometimes the mind gets lost in a coincidence. As if a stranger would come and rescue him. Salauddin noticed that those dreams had kept him alive. Otherwise he might have died for so many days. The whole country feels like a huge prison. You can't go home if you want to.

Salauddin could not have imagined that the situation in Saudi Arabia was so bad. No work. Some are rushing to get a job, but no pay. Five or six months is not going to get paid. Some get some salary again, but their number is very low. Those who are working permanently in a company, corporate office, supermarket, hypermarket or mall are getting regular salary. But their number is not high. Most of the people are outside, who work in construction firms like that. Salauddin does not sleep at night thinking.

Akama has a problem with him. Has been sitting for two months, has not yet received Akama. The person who brought the visa has to stay with him. Ten people have to stay in one room. You can't leave the house without Akama. The man said - no one will go out. I have no responsibility to go out and get caught by the police. Must go straight to the country.

Seeing the situation around and listening to the old man's words, the newcomers get scared in their chests. Apart from that, how old is Salauddin? How much patience and courage can one leave the country at such a young age or go abroad? The biggest thing is not working. Not to mention the hardships. Everyone wants to do any job.

Much like war. Going forward, going back means defeat. The boy who studied in the country has been cherished by his parents. When he came to this country, he had to go through a lot of hardships. There are five to six people in a room. Room sharing, going to work before sunrise, returning from work at night, cooking, washing clothes ... that's all! Not so much can be described.

Salauddin does not say all this at home. Just say, mother, pray it will become something.

Salauddin gets Akama three months later. A job is also obtained. Plumber work. Big project. Salauddin was full of hope. Maybe work will continue for several days. Many say that Saudi Arabia will not have this situation. It will get better. Salary will be available as before. Then Salauddin's chest filled with happiness. It's good to hear even if it's a lie.

Salauddin continues to work. After getting Akama I had to move to another room. Staying there is your own expense. All the money in hand was gone. The firm from which he went to work was told he would pay two months later. But three months, four months have passed and there is no news of salary.

Fear of leaving the job, now who can not get another job. So he was forced to work. Five months have passed, there is no salary. Salauddin can no longer eat. After two months the house rent money, after six months Akama will have to be built again. Couldn't send a penny home. Meanwhile, the loan money ....

I can't sleep at night. I woke up in the middle of the night. He gets up in the morning and goes to work. There is not a single penny in the pocket. Can't eat breakfast. The body does not get energy. It is difficult to walk. Those who work with Salauddin can understand by looking at his face.

Let someone eat a loaf of bread. Salauddin cried in front of the bread. Raising two cows from the country was much better than this.

Salauddin could not bring lunch. Those who work with them are Bangladeshis. They say you eat lunch with us every day. You don't have to bring food. Salauddin arranged for lunch. But at night ....

After about seven days, Salauddin spoke to his mother today. With someone else's mobile. He could not buy a mobile phone himself. Mom couldn't speak, just cried. Then he said in a tearful voice, "Father, my mind is in great danger to you." You read Aiya.

Salauddin smiled with tears in his eyes. Say, mother is new ... you pray. Everything will be fine.

Mom's cries don't stop. Dad spoke in a dirty voice. Salauddin's mind does not want to stay here. But I borrow so much money. What can be done. At least if he could raise the money .... Thousands go to work every day with wailing in their chests.

You have to wake up before the sun rises. After the Fajr prayers, he started running to catch the car. He sits in the car and looks outside. So many beautiful roads, buildings. The whole city is still asleep.

The sun rises to give light to the earth. Thousands of hopes are associated with that sun. One day everything will be fine. Will earn money by working. Will send to the country. Everyone will smile. Don't cry and ask, mother, is your father in danger?

Everything in front of the eyes is blurred. The car is moving. Salauddin wiped his eyes with the sleeve of his shirt. Palash, who was sitting next to him, put his hand on Salauddin's shoulder and said, don't panic. Such is life. You are suffering now, I will see you again on a happy day.
