3 chapter-3 Inhumanity

was the late monsoon of 1999.People in the city of Calcutta were merry and joyful. The rain did good that year. A lot of forthfill harvest perhaps did the trick. The farmers were cheery because of the excess amount of sales. It was mid noon, I was busy with my studies when I heard a knock at the door , I did not move because maa had gone to fetch stuff and then the knock continued for thrice when I understood who it was . 'Oh you were studying, I see' said Reema, with a brief look. 'Yeah just my tasks as usual , 'What about you?' I questioned. 'Don't u ask your guests to come in?' she asked me back with a rather overjoyed look. 'I did not know that you are a guest now' I replied with ease. She came in and we went to the dinning room for further conversation.

Our house was not a massive one but huge enough to accommodate a family with two wards. There was a staircase which led to the one fifth floor of the building. As a kid I would always sit on the easing and always thought myself as the monarch and whenever Reema would come over she used to be the female sovereign, granting wishes and condemning the offenders. Dad built the house the first time he got a proper job in Calcutta as the official chartered management accountant for the India Bank, a couple of years prior to my birth. My mom and my dad's mom were overwhelmed, on the occasion they say. 'He used to get five hundred rupees per month which has now increased to three thousand as per my comprehension.

We sat in the dinning room and I asked her would she prefer tea over coffee. 'With extra sugar of course' she stated. Reema always liked having coffee with extra sugar although her family members were pretty obsessed about the fact that diabetes might hit her in the later stages of her life, she was not at all bothered about these.

'He is coming back anytime these days' she said.

'Oh, that's great news then' I replied. 'Your mom must be relieved with the fact that he is coming home'

She nodded her head with a sense of acceptance. 'He is returning home finally this time and will be soon taking his retirement' she added. 'He will be here at your seventeenth birthday that means' I said. 'Yes' she replied with a very calm and untroubled voice.

I handed her cup of coffee, she sipped it and smiled at me looking very pleased. She always appreciated the amount of coffee powder which I poured. She was staring at me and moved closer after her first sip.

I hesitated for a couple of seconds and asked her 'What do you want for your birthday?'

'No particular choices' she stated. I was dumbstruck for a while because Reema always preferred to ask for her gifts at the earliest and now she was withdrawing her offer, made me think about it for a while. She moved a step closer, and sat on the chair just next to mine. We were looking at each other's eyes gazing deep into thoughts, she admired my eye's like never before, I could perceive a drop of sweat move across her forehead and slip past her eerie black eyebrows. The atmosphere all around grew strained. I thought of dropping a word or two but couldn't as we were too close by then, I could feel her breathing now, and could spot the sweat droplet a little more enlarged. As we ambled towards each other, I could easily get a sniff of the freshly prepared coffee form the margin of her lips, which drew closer as the seconds passed by until I realized I was possessed by the whole situation, I felt her tongue pushing mine and her lips doing the same the very next moment, they were like a soft orchid petal , which you feel like plucking whenever you inhale the essence of it . I merely could look up to her face , but I didn't. The fright of any unpleasant look on her face bewildered me to the utmost. Her tongue wiggled and perverted around mine , made me hard to realize that this was an introductory part of her life , I tried my best to keep up , but couldn't , she was taking over , and slowly then grabbed me by my neck and thrusted it towards her , I was feeling helpless but did not want to call for one because it simply felt I was experiencing her to the fullest and to the utmost and couldn't resist the beautiful warmth of her .

There was a pause.

She mentioned that it was her first time and that she still was an armature. The air was lighter and then she left leaving away a brief smile, It took me almost a whole week to figure what happened back then.
