The harsh sunrays were too brutal
The soil was meant to get hard
Then what is the fault of that soil?
That moulded just as the situation desired

Anirudh RoyChoudhary is the best of all in the world.

Whether a Barrister, a learner, a teacher, a loyal citizen, a former husband, a brother or a son. He aces every field magnificently.

But he doubts it. Till the life he had spent in London for his education, he might accept the fact that he was best. But after that? He doubts it when he sees himself from his eyes.

In these eighteen months, he has doubted himself. At each breath. Each day and night. He has questioned his existence since the day he was not able to protect his father. His family. Two innocent people died. Their Daughter was left trapped in Child marriage. His Bondita... he wasn't able to fulfil his promise either.

He has failed. Miserably. In his vows. In his life.

The day he married her. He failed. The day he nullified his marriage, he failed. The moment he put his family at risk, he failed again. The moment he wasn't able to fight for truth.... his revolution at best possibilities.... he failed miserably.

His mother bought him into the light of this world. She left. His land mother bought light to his thoughts, he indulged himself brutally in the shackling problems of his life, and the light ambushed somewhere. His Bondita bought light into his life, in his existence, in his thought; she too left.

He is lightless. Living this life.

But she left for good. She would possibly be a grown-up individual. Getting ready for achieving her dreams. Soon she will be a Barrister. Come back to her Country, her family. And then will fall for someone who would be worthy of her. Perhaps, she has gotten one. She discusses him often in letters. Anurag, his name is.

He won't get the chance to be with her. Neither before nor after.
Reason-- current situation.

He hasn't talked to her for years. Still, without any expectations, she sends letters to him. Picks up his call despite knowing he won't say a single word. For how many days it will continue? Certainly, within a few more months that will be over forever.

This...

Shatters his heart.

"Anirudh see, I have got this...", Sampoorna's faint word startled him. He quickly tossed the small photo frame of Him and Hers(Bondita) and her letter inside the drawer of his study desk, all the while thinking he was staring at it for a long time. He with sweaty fingers reached for the typewriter over the desk. Anirudh worked on the files of his new case.
