Surrounded by Fog ( by Rj)

Chapter-4

Afternoon passed and Sohag still did not return. People from Chaiti's father's house and in-laws have come. How many relatives of the girl, how many people! Fifteen-twenty people came. Waiting for the mutilated body but never seen alive. What's the use of looking at empty eyes! After noon the crowd started to decrease. The elderly woman lay on the floor crying, wailing for several minutes. Some are comforting, some are watching with eager eyes.

Evening fell as Sohag returned. The darkness of the night is spreading around.

"Piyasi, everyone thinks I was involved in an illicit affair with Chaiti. Also involved with Khun. Several people in the building have given such statements. Chaiti was last seen leaving our house."

"It is natural to see them sitting in the corner of the terrace day after day talking. Besides, it is not too unusual to think that Chaiti's husband is away."

"Do you think so too?"

"Just because I don't feel like it doesn't solve your problem."

"Still want to know. Believe me?"

' According to the reverse side of the faith-disbelief coin. It is difficult to understand when it changes. "

I don't want to argue unnecessarily. Make a cup of coffee if you can. I haven't eaten since morning. "

' You haven't eaten anything all day? '

'I went to my uncle's house! '

Sohag is not in a good mood. To argue further, the results may be reversed. The mood is disturbed due to not eating all day. Then more trouble. A criminal never wants anyone to suspect him.

Sohag is sitting on the sofa looking serious. Slowly sipping coffee mug, occasionally looking around trying to find something.

"Thirsty."

"Yes, say it."

"You are not involved with this murderer?"

"Why do you doubt me?"

"Woman can't tolerate a male sidekick. My intimacy with Chaiti may have an adverse effect on you."

"No adverse effects. I had to make a very difficult decision. To find out in a few days."

"Like?"

"I would have disappeared from your life. Anyway, drop those words. When will Chaiti's body be returned?"

"At the end of the postmortem. Tomorrow afternoon, probably. The person from Lash Ka't is not available, the person who is La'sh Ka't is on vacation." Will not return today. "

"Have you talked to Chaiti's housemate? Or her husband?"

"I didn't talk to Ratul, who came from his house?"

"Can't say exactly, haven't talked to anyone. But many have come."

"To keep track of what is eating or not."

"Those who do not have time to find out while living, do not cry in death."

"There's no point in making things so difficult. There can be problems."

"No, there can be no problem."

"You have stopped communicating with your parents for two years. If you can, settle everything now. I am also going to see my mother tomorrow."

I didn't say anything in response. After marriage, I never talked to my parents, I don't know much about them There is no one in the world more than parents. I decided to apologize to my parents in the morning. It was very painful to do such a thing against their opinion.

Didn't talk to Sohag that night. He went to bed early, he was getting sleepy. Sitting on the bed and running f*******:. It's nine o'clock, I don't want to sleep so early It's not bad to run f*******: sometimes, you can learn a lot. How many people make different posts, write about their problems, share happy moments.

A story came up while scrolling through the newsfeed. In the name of 'grassland', many writers upload stories on f*******:. My life has a bit in common with the story of the prairie story. Hope the ending is as beautiful as the story.

Nine o'clock in the morning. I read the story till late night. I could not get up in the morning due to sleeping late. Sohag is not at home, searched the entire house and could not find him anywhere. Maybe went out to work. He could have called me before leaving.

"Come thirsty, let's have breakfast."

"Just woke up. Nothing cooked."

"Bought from outside, didn't want to disturb you sleeping."

"Do you know anything about the news?"

"There is no special news for now, the body will come in the afternoon. The OC has called, can't take any decision until the post-mortem report comes."

"You wait a while, I'm getting fresh."

Sohag is sitting in the bathroom preparing food, thirsty. The boy is thinking about something. May also recall memories of time spent with Chaiti. Missing people are remembered a lot.

"I'm here, start eating."

"You look so beautiful."

I don't understand Sohag's feelings. Who knows what to do! He doesn't talk while eating, he eats quietly.

"Sohag, I want to visit my parents. I want to see them."

"I'll go if I want. Their house isn't too far. But I'll be back by afternoon. Anyone else in the building might be suspicious. Everyone's suspicious of me."

There is nothing to fear if you don't do wrong. "

"Nowadays most of the time innocent people get caught." Moreover, I am a criminal in everyone's eyes until proven guilty. "

"I've never heard anyone say anything like that. You're exaggerating."

"I'm not exaggerating. If you keep your eyes and ears open, you'll see."

"Let's finish eating without talking? If there is no work, can you give me a little advance?"

"No time, have to go to police station. OC sir called. You better go alone"

"Well, okay. Going to get my keys, somewhere Close the door if you go. "

Sohag didn't say anything. There is not a single rickshaw on the road. Today the sky is not dominated by Suyyimama. Covered by clouds, maybe it will rain. I started walking without waiting for the rickshaw.

"Where are you going?"

"This is at the front bus stand."

"Go to the rickshaw?'

"Yes. How much is the rent?"

"You give it."

It is better to fix the rent. "

"Pay what you rent."

I sat in the rickshaw. Lucky the rickshaw puller called back. The case of Chaiti's murder is quite mysterious. If Sohag Chaiti was involved in an illicit relationship then I should be murdered. They would want to remove me from their midst. But the passing of Chaiti's mother changed everything. If Chaiti's husband didn't do anything, he might have had a hand in this murder. But the man is out of the country, what will he do? Maybe there was a reason. Besides, who can tell if he is killing someone else. Nowadays people can do anything for money.

It was then that I realized I was going the wrong way. The road to the bus stand is not here. What a silence all around. The road runs past the open field. Why did not notice for so long! I have made many big mistakes while thinking with my eyes closed like the poets.

"Which way are you going? This is not the bus stand road."

"It's a shortcut if you go this way. You don't seem to be going back and forth for a long time."

"Yes, it might be."

I wanted to trust the rickshaw puller. Don't get excited at this point. Moreover, why would anyone want to harm me? I have not wronged anyone. Still the mind is calling.

"Will you drink water?"

"No, not thirsty. You go early. Should be back by afternoon."

"You seem to be in a bit of a hurry. You could have taken the water anyway. I don't know how long you will suffer from lack of water now."

"What do you mean?"

The rickshaw puller turned back and smiled mischievously. Within a few moments, four men came out of the nearby bush. All of them were looking at me like little ha'ena's. My throat was dry with fear, what a danger I was in. Ke Ki'd'nya. Can you make it? Or will it kill you? Only Sohag knew about my departure. So what did he do?

No, why would Sohag do that! He could have killed me in my sleep. But why not do this with people?

"There's no point in taking too much risk, this Maia could be convulsing. Shall I faint?"

"Why are you doing this to me? Who told you to do this?"

"Tor Na'gar. Hey Pola, I'll marry my father's choice. So you're talking to me on the road. How are you doing with Na'gar?"

Sohag will marry the girl that parents like? So two years ago everything was emotional?
