As if someone had left some rotten apples on the side of the road, Nanny was mad and was eating the apples. A few boys sitting far away are watching him. The boys are teenagers of fourteen-fifteen years, live nearby. One is pulling the shoe gum in the polythene and pulling, the others are sitting and watching the action of Noni Pagal.

Noni is crazy. Khas is crazy in this area No one knows who left him here. The boys of the area have seen him on the streets with a detached face, with empty eyes since he became aware of it. He never had to go through the unnecessary harassment that he had to go through as a madman. Usually when insane people are harassed, they get angry and start harassing. This kind of behavior has never been seen in the case of noni lunatics. In the beginning, however, the youngsters tried a little to get angry, but in the end they stopped forever because they did not make any profit.

One of the boys is named Jobayer. Before the name, there is nothing after, only Jobayer 7 A body of black bones jirjire 6 Seeing Nanny Pagla swallowing the rotten apples, he probably felt annoyed. The poor man jumped on his back and jumped forward. The two boys laughed out loud. Noni turned her head backwards with a blank stare, looked at the boys, and slid her back to the previous place. Probably strong with hunger in his stomach, his hands are again towards the apples lying on him Seeing that, Jobayer took another piece of brick in his hand and the boy next to him threatened him, slapped him and threw the piece of brick.

Jobay's tumultuous abuse for a while. The father raised his mother and gave her a little cheek, the boy did not seem to care. Someone from the front said, "What's wrong with you, Fagla? Do you want to eat? Don't eat. Don't eat."

Jobay said in a hoarse voice, "What about your father?"

The boy became angry. The two may have been abusive for a while, but before that the desired polythene came out of the boy's hand. Someone said jokingly, "Give me some honey, Shunguk. Kiri, that fagla, nibi or not?"

The boys started laughing among themselves Nani didn't even look back at the crazy boys, she was still swallowing apples. There is no way to swallow it There is nothing heavy in the stomach for two days. Ashab Hossain used to feed Nani Pagal twice, he had a medium quality rice hotel. The hotel has been closed for two weeks Ashab Hossain has closed his business and left the rented hotel in Gazipur, setting up a new hotel at the place he bought.

Ashab Hossain is such a good man, before he left, he explained the responsibility of eating noni pagal. Her friendship with a grocer near the hotel led her to ask him, Nani, to feed her twice. Asmat Ali, a grocer, made the request, but Rose thought he would feed Nani. It may have become a habit to appear in front of the hotel on time inside Nani Pagal after eating at Ashab Hossain's hotel as per the rules of the day. But now it has been three days since Asmat went to Khulna to see his uncle, so the shop is also closed Nani comes and sits in front of the shop every day according to the rules. After sitting for an hour, he walked back and forth and came at night

Sitting in the hope of Assam again. Asmat doesn't come anymore, Nani doesn't eat anymore. He doesn't seem to be very sick because he doesn't have the feeling that everyone else isn't worried about him eating. He sighed with relief.

No one has any headache about Nani's life, no one has any greed for Nani's receipt or non-receipt. But some of the boys standing at a distance are jealous of Nani's forehead. Despite being crazy, the boys are very disappointed that Nani gets to eat twice a day. The boys regret that they have to work so hard to provide food all day long, that they don't have to survive even a single drop of Nani's experience due to being insane.

This resentment has turned into resentment in some cases. In his mind, even the teenager Jobay, who had been scolded a while ago, had more resentment than remorse. A man is going crazy and trying to get rice even though he is half-naked, and he has to beg for food, it takes his soul to accept this truth. Even if begging was a double meal! Achhim Bhai, the elder brother of the next slum has to pay eighty percent of the begging money. Why is the Creator so kind to the insane, leaving healthy people, and still sometimes hesitating.

Jobay himself never had a fatherless child. He lost from Habiganj and somehow moved to Dhaka. My parents were tea garden workers. It was supposed to be his own, but it didn't happen because he got lost. Jobayer didn't try to find his parents anymore, and I don't think his parents could afford to find him.

Jobay lost during the seventh year, was quite young. There was an impression of a watchman on his face, there was a strange expression of fear on his face How many things he has seen, heard and heard while living in the city!

"Move the pig's bait."

Jobay lowered his face from the polythene and ran his hand straight over the boy's back. The boy countered and said, "Asaidda jahan marsele tahan to putki udam kaira asili."

The boys started laughing ho ho. Jobayer's head began to bleed. He took a piece of brick from the ground and put it on the boy's face. The boy was also ready to avoid injury, but his speed did not match Jobayer's agility. The nostrils ruptured and a lot of blood flowed. The boy pressed his face with one hand and went to look for something in the other, before the other two boys pushed and shoved him away. Before he could go out of sight, the injured boy sniffed or sniffed. Jobay's throat is not less strong, swearing is his own instinct, O-O sneered. His mind became very poisoned. 7, son of Motaleb, south of the Assad slum When Jobayer first came to the slum, Motaleb let him stay for a few days Her son Asad was fifteen years old at the time and fell in love with Jobayer. Jobay is shocked when an unexpected touch starts after a while. Motaleb should be told whether he should be told or not, but he was embarrassed and worried about what the rest of the boys would say. Though the thought didn't last long, Assad himself told the boys things at one point Assad's price goes up in the neighborhood, Jobay has a pot of teasing for a while The humiliation that does not exist accumulates in the chest and begins to live, the shame that does not have rationality is used as fuel and one day it finds Assad alone on the road and breaks his head with a brick. The teasing episode comes to an end, Ragachata learns to live a little even if Jobay is in the wrong way.

"Shall we go to the slums?"

Not to mention Jobay. The older boy next to him got up and started walking, saying, "You have been told to go to Ashika. Deha Kris once before going to Birij."

Jobayer started walking quietly again. Jobayer has a favorite girl named Tajnahar. Needless to say, the girl's age is less than hers. A total of eleven years old 7 The girl's mother used to work in a man's house, but now she falls into the house with water on her feet and shouts at her children all the time. Can't yell at her husband because her husband, Tajnahar's father Nurul Haque, doesn't want his wife to be healthy or sick. If his wife is rude, he has to be brought to the path, in this attitude he takes a strict stand. He has a reputation as a man around him, and most of his neighbors consider him an angel for leaving his sick wife at home. Many people think that if he was a little rich, he would have shown his wife to the doctor.

Maybe Nurul Haque is always angry because he is in so much trouble in the world. When raising his hand, he does not notice the adult, the minor. He often beats Tajnahar for little reason Sometimes he hits so hard that the girl loses consciousness. Yet Tajnahar is very naive of his father. All the time, 'Baap Baap Baap Baap' will continue to do. What a surprise that the father who beats his daughter like a pickpocket is so naive! Jobay gets annoyed every time he hears his father talking about Tajnahar. Sometimes Nur feels sick, wondering what he will do if he finds out that Tajnahar likes him.

*

There is a long way to go. He had no desire to come to the slum today. Come because Tajnahar has called.

Tajnahar was out, frying vegetables in a clay oven. He also saw Jobay standing far away. But at the moment the hair is not going to move from the front. When the vegetables are burnt, there is nothing to eat in the house. Mom is sleeping now, her body is getting worse and her mood is getting worse day by day. When the vegetables are burnt, he wakes up and shouts and gathers the slums.

Tajnahar came a little later. Orna is not needed in her small body, but seeing the people of her choice, Orna pulled herself in a strange way and covered herself. Yes

Jobay gritted his teeth and smiled, saying, "Say this?"

Father of Tajnahar, mother of Barisal. He said with a regional pull of Barisal, "Yes, I gave it to Nizam's brother. You don't have a body, Maladin."

Jobayer laughed out loud and said, "I haven't been in the area for three days. I went to sell my brother's log."

Tajnahar's talk was over in a hurry. He couldn't find anything else to say. After a moment of silence, Jobayer said, "Where is your father? No income yet?"

Tajnahar is a little excited to find out. He hurriedly said, "Abba gerame gese, jameer kame."

Jobay is a little surprised. He did not know that Tajnahar could have a separate village house.

But he doesn't bother Tajnahar much about this, he says softly, "What about your mother?"

Tajnahar's face turned black. How bad Jobair's mind is. The word should not have been raised. He wanted to go ahead and gently hug the girl once But it is not possible to get involved here, if anyone sees it, he will spread ten words in the name of Tajnahar Then when Tajnahar's father heard the news, he trembled for a few moments without thinking about the whole scene.

Jobay says softly, "Taju, shall we go to the lake?"

Tajnahar's eyes want to get bigger, but he can't look at Jobair's Zulu Zulu eyes and say no. Silently bowing his head, he followed Zobayer towards Jhilpar. He has been to Jhilpar a few times before, every time with Jobair There is an abandoned pipe along the shore of the lake, and Jobayer is lying inside it, hugging him tightly. Two immature bodies and minds have tried to get the two without knowing or understanding anything. Jobayer, however, did not have the courage to proceed until the intercourse. Once I went to try, Tajnahar had to stop crying. Nowadays, he doesn't like to wait and listen to the faces of his friends and local children. Achim Bhai said that the girls do the same, once they are forced, the girl comes under control again. There is no reason not to believe it. Moreover, he dreams of marrying Tajnahar, so where is the problem? And Jobayer has heard that whatever the pain is, it still happens.

*

On the night of the full moon, the moon has risen in the sky. Meanwhile, from inside an abandoned pipe, a woman cries for help. Needless to say, the boy is Jobayer, and the girl is Tajnahar. Tajnahar's lower limbs have become numb with severe pain, his mind has become more numb than that. In the light of the values ​​he has learned from his childhood in the face of the brutal coercion of the people he trusts, he now feels just unclean.

Jobayer was about to say something, as if someone had thrown a lump of clay before him. Despite being in excruciating pain, Tajnahar became completely silent in terror. Jobay jumps up and plays the house with the top surface of the pipe. His jaw wanted to stiffen in pain, he grabbed his head with one hand and went out in a cautious manner. As soon as he came out, his mood got worse. Nanny is standing mad. He is standing with a big lump in his hand. The eyes are twinkling, the eyebrows are raised, the gesture is aggressive. After a long time, the pages of Nani's vague memory have become a little clearer. Many years ago, when he was not crazy, a couple of memories of him floating away, perhaps for a moment, he became reactive. The sound of the girl's cries coming from the pipe made him think that it was probably his own daughter who was crying. What was the girl's name? Granny blinked and tried to remember, but couldn't. Why not? Nanny looked at the boy standing in front of her with hazy eyes and muttered, "Can?". He had to work hard to pronounce the words in his long unaccustomed manner.

Jobay's slow legs continued to move towards Nani. On the way, he stopped and took a medium-sized piece of brick from the ground. When he got very close, he applied a lot of force along Nani's chest and threw the piece. The sound came step by step with the chest. Nanny screamed like a mad dumb, dropped the ball from her hand and sat down on the ground with her hand on her chest. Suddenly Nani remembered. He was a teacher of Bengali, he used to teach Bengali in Batukthali High School He had two sons and a daughter The wife was very fat. Her daughter was very fond of eating ice cream. Someone showed greed for ice cream and took the girl away one day. Then ... then he gave it back. He called the police, shouted, what did he do! Then one day some boys from the ruling party came and took her and her daughter away.

Noni Master, a Bengali teacher at Batukthali High School, closed her eyes in impossible shame. Jobay went ahead and kicked his head. Kicked in the waist, kicked in the stomach. Nanny Pagal did not interrupt any more. Even the first time he fell on his chest and screamed, he did not even cry again. Only a few drops of water flowed through his eyes.
