Jahana is sitting in a corner of the room scared. Nilufa comes to him and is surprised. Jahanara put her hand on Begum’s shoulder and she trembled with fear.
“Mom what happened?”
Jahanara looks at Nilufa, her fourteen year old daughter. When he saw him, he hugged him. Nilufa doesn’t understand anything. Jahana hugs her and cries. Nilufa thought, remembering her mother’s father. That’s why it hurts. Suddenly Nilufa herself also remembers her father very much.
Nilufa meets Sultan on her way to school. Nilufa saw him and said in a calm voice, “Did my father really lend you money?”
The Sultan does not reply. He looked at Nilufa with fascinated eyes. Nilufa asked again without getting an answer. Sultan smiled faintly and said, “Why should I say misha?”
“I think you’re lying.”
Sultan smiles in response to Nilufa’s words. Then he says, “Micha Boila my profit?”
“You have bad intentions. That’s why you’re lying.”
The Sultan’s smile disappeared in a moment. Nilufa repeated, “Your eyes are not good.”
“You are old enough to understand whether this look is good or bad.”
Sultan says in a somewhat threatening tone. Nilufa bowed her head in fear. Somehow avoids the Sultan. The Sultan looked at the way he was going and said, “What happens if you understand two lines more. Erlai women mean disaster. Understand less is more. As a result, destruction can occur.”
Lalbanu stopped to see Nizam fixing the bed in a room on the ground floor. He stood in front of the door and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Nizam gives Lalbanu a sweet smile. Then he said, “I will stay here, elder sister.”
“Why do you stay here?”
Lalbanu does not understand. Nizam looked at Lalbanu and said, “Matabbar Chacha has given me the Laiga job of always.”
Nizam explains the whole matter to Lalbanu. After saying everything, Nizam asks, “Do you understand, elder sister?”
“No, I can’t.”
Nizam was a bit shocked after hearing Lalbanu’s words. Even after saying it so simply, he didn’t understand. After hearing Lalbanu’s words, Nizam looked like a fool. Lalbanu says, “How can my son-in-law be your uncle if I am the elder sister?”
Nizam remained silent without replying. Lalbanu is waiting for his reply. Seeing Lalbanu standing looking at him, Nizam said, “Excuse me. I will be a big brother. Forget….”
Lalbanu stops Nizam. Then says, “I am not stupid. Seeing your eyes, I understand what you want, uncle.
Nizam is a bit startled. He said in his mind, “This kid has a lot of wisdom. Seeing his eyes, he laughed and understood.
Lalbanu slowly entered Nizam’s room. Nizam said in a slightly frightened voice, “Actually, it is not possible to say that you are my elder sister, my brother.” I think you two are father and daughter. That’s why I’m joking.”
Lalbanu did not answer at first but later said very calmly, “Mami used to say, husband is a big asset. Society, rules, religion and work everywhere beer fair price. Fair importance. He is my husband no matter how big I want him to be. Beer relationship between us. No one can ever grow up disrespecting a beer relationship. And disrespect is never fun.”
Hearing Lalbanu’s words, Nizam bowed his head. Says in a soft voice, “I’m sorry big sister. It won’t happen anymore. A servant like me should not have such fun. Don’t take me out of work. Please don’t complain.”
“I did not say the words as your servant. You wouldn’t have dared to have so much fun with that look. I wouldn’t dare.”
Saying this Lalbanu leaves. Lalbanu comes to his room and closes the door. He thinks about the moment before his marriage. Lalbanu was sitting in a bed. At that time, Lalbanu’s seven-year-old cousin came and said, “You are marrying an old man.”
Lalbanu was a little scared after hearing this. At one point he was crying. At that time his aunt and all the women around told him about the marriage. Importance of relationship between husband and wife. The husband talks about how much the man respects him.
After Lalbanu got married in this house, her mother-in-law Maleka Begum was also telling her these things. Also, when he lost consciousness for the first two days, after regaining consciousness, he gave a lot of knowledge about these things. Although he said everything in an angry voice. Still Lalbanu understood them. He is not stupid. Lalbanu says in his heart, “This world is wise for those who have no father or mother. His ignorance does not suit him.
That’s why Lalbanu has endured every night after her. Because Maleka Banu told him, “Displeasing Swami is a sin. A great sin.”
Lalbanu was sitting and thinking about that. At that time the voice of his mother-in-law Maleka Begum came out. He says, “The wife of the house has become big. Big wife. No knowledge. inaction
I also say Hari Kapal, I have such a wife on my forehead.
Lalbanu quickly came out and came to her mother-in-law. When Lalbanu came, Maleka Begum threw a bucket of water on her. Then he said, “You have put a bucket of water in the toilet, you don’t understand the dirt that can fall in it.” Who will take a bucket of water that has been wasted?”
Lalbanu bowed his head and quietly listened to Maleka Begum. In fact, Lalbanu forgot to leave the bucket. That is why leaves have fallen from the tree. So Maleka Begum is so angry. Maleka Begum walks away. Farida Begum is standing next to Lalbanu. Lalbanu says, “Why did Amma get so upset over a small incident?”
“Go home and change your saree.”
Saying this, Farida Begum leaves. Lalbanu stands there for some time. Nizam was watching everything. Lalbanu cries as she sees Maleka Begum and Farida Begum leave. Tears rolled down his eyes. Nizam came forward and said, “Bara Bhabhi should go to your house. I will cry again if I see you cry.”
Lalbanu leaves from there. The Nizam watched her go. She said in her mind, “She became the wife of the house after seeing the money.” Became an old man’s wife, these things will have to be tolerated.”
Maleka Begum scolded Lalbanu all day about an incident in the morning. Nizam was very annoyed by this. At one point he said, “One thing needs to be said several times.”
Maleka Begum looks at Nizam with angry eyes. Then he said, “What did you say?”
“Aunty I did not tell you. I remembered an incident of my mother, I was saying that.”
Nizam somehow turns the word to Maleka Begum. Maleka Begum does not talk to Nizam.
Lalbanu went up to the second floor and stopped in front of Farida Begum’s house. Farida Begum and Altaf Khan are talking inside. Altaf Khan slapped Farida Begum on the cheek. After hearing that basically Lalbanu stopped. Farida Begum slapped her and said angrily, “My parents are poor and have married a literate girl like me to an imbecile like you. Because you are a true home boy. Or who would marry a man like you? A karma. Put your hands on me again. How dare you raise your hand?”
Altaf responded with another slap on Farida’s cheek. Then he said, “I am telling you not to marry me after going home. By killing your father, this wife will not be happy. Even your father gave you money. And blame me.
Greed, you are like me hanging on the neck of inaction, if anyone is at fault here, it is yours. your family A greedy family.”
“Don’t talk about my family at all.”
At Farida’s words, Altaf says in an angry voice, “You keep quiet. Keep one thing in mind, I don’t have to stay away from what you want to do. I will not let you achieve your interests by taking a life.”
At that time, Farida was surprised to see someone’s shadow outside the door. Screams, “Who?”
Lalbanu is a bit scared. Farida comes and opens the door and is shocked to see Lalbanu. Altaf is also surprised. Altaf says in a calm voice, “Bhabhi you?”
“Bhabhi, did you hear anything?”
Farida looks at him skeptically. Lalbanu nods his head and says ‘yes’. Farida is over with fear. But Farida breathes a sigh of relief when Lalbanu hears that only Altaf has heard her mother’s words. Altaf says, “This is a husband-wife matter for us. Bhabhi you go home.”
Lalbanu goes home as Farida also says the same thing. Altaf looks at Farida. Farida turned her face and lay down on the bed.
