The Time Between Us | SM Mahfuj Alam | Season-1 | Part 5/17

After trying for almost two hours, Safran could not sleep. Then Safran did not lie down unnecessarily and went towards Snigdha's house with the bike. People's minds are very restless. No matter how much you enlighten yourself, no matter how much you understand, the poor man will run to his beloved people. Safran does not know what Safran will do. He only knows that Safran's two eyes are restless to see Snigdha. How much he will keep his mind, and how many tears will be hidden. Safran does not know. He really does not know. Safran is standing in front of Snigdha's balcony. Now it is 3:40 pm. Snigdha will not be awake at night. The dream light of Snigdha's room is visible. Safran climbed up from the balcony and entered Snigdha's room. Snigdha is sleeping. Safran slowly sits next to Snigdha. Even in this winter night, the girl sleeps with the fan on, she doesn't even put a blanket on her. Safran has missed this face all day today. Safran can't control his tears. As soon as Safran's tears fell on Snigdha's face, Snigdha moved slightly. Safran thought Snigdha might wake up. But Snigdha is in a deep sleep. Safran noticed that Snigdha had fallen asleep without her hair. The messy hair is wearing on Snigdha's face. After removing the hair with utmost care, Safran tied Snigdha's hair with a hair clip placed on the side. Now Snigdha looks quite tidy. How is the sleeping face of girls so enchanting. Safran leans close to Snigdha's face. Unknowingly, Safran's eyes are fixed on Snigdha's pink lips. Safran brings his lips to Snigdha's lips. Suddenly, a message comes on Snigdha's mobile, and Safran comes back to reality. Taking control of himself, Safran takes Snigdha's mobile. But the mobile is PIN locked. So Safran can't see the message. Safran leaves the mobile next to him and goes up, just then Snigdha grabs Safran's hand. Safran is looking at Snigdha with surprised eyes. Snigdha is holding Safran's hand in her sleep. Safran sat next to Snigdha. Safran's meditation was interrupted while giving the morning azaan. Safran's daughter-in-law Atiya Rahman got up for prayer, Safran quickly came down from the balcony after realizing the matter. Then he left for home with his bike.

As soon as Safran left, Snigdha suddenly woke up. She slowly got up from the bed. Snigdha went to the balcony. It's morning. This morning scene is Snigdha's favorite. But cannot get up in the morning because of Alzheimer's. Snigdha was surprised when she put her hand on her head to stop the hair. Then she went and stood in front of the mirror. Snigdha clearly remembers that Snigdha slept with her hair open. While talking to Rahat on video call, Rahat said, Rahat likes Snigdha better when her hair is open. And that's why Snigdha kept her hair open. Snigdha kept thinking about the matter.

-- Areh Dhur maybe. I tied my hair in my sleep.

Snigdha goes to the washroom and performs ablution. Then read the prayer.

Snigdha and Rahat are sitting in the coffee shop. Rahat is looking at Snigdha with blank eyes.

--- Well Rahat, how much do you love me?

Love can never be measured. But understand that the more you love, the more you find a reason to live.

---That means you didn't find a reason to live before loving me?

--- No, I was alive because I had breath, but now I want to live forever by finding you.

Snigdha was fascinated by Rahat's words. Rahat spoke very carefully, Snigdha said again "You will never leave?"

---If you leave, you have to leave the world.

Rahat holds Snigdha's hand, gives it a light kiss. Then says "I never want to lose you Snigdha, I hold this hand for a moment before I die, I will be by your side, see.

---I will never leave you too. We will get married after the exam, Rahat.

Rahat and Snigdha are holding hands and looking at each other. And Safran is looking at them with tears in his eyes. He can't believe his eyes. Safran came in front of Snigdha and Rahat with a lot of difficulty. Seeing Safran, Snigdha let go of Rahat's hand. And Rahat looked at Safran with annoyed eyes. Rahat knows Safran. He is Snigdha's cousin. He has taken Snigdha to college by bike several times. Rahat greeted Safran for the sake of politeness but Safran did not listen to Rahat. Agun looked at Snigdha with fire eyes and Snigdha kept her eyes down in fear and shame. What would Snigdha say to Safran Bhaiya. He must have been targeting them for a long time. Safran said to Snigdha in a heavy voice. Said "What's going on Snigdha? Are you sitting here holding a boy's hand in the name of going to college?

---Brother

--- Shut up. And who are you?

---I am Snigdhar.Boyfriend.

Safran listens to Rahat and looks at Snigdha. Snigdha's throat is getting dry in fear. Snigdha doesn't understand that Rahat will tell all the truth.

Safran grabbed Rahat's collar and said, "What are you talking about?"

---What I said is true. And why are you so hyper. You are treating Snigdha like your sister. It's good but you have to understand that she has a personal life.

Safran could not take Rahat's words any more and raised his hand to punch Rahat and then Snigdha stopped Safran.

---Brother, please leave him. Please.

Safran controlled his anger and turned towards Snigdha and started pulling Snigdha by her hand. But Snigdha jerked her hand away.

---Leave me. I will not go with you.

What did you say?

---If you hear that, I am saying it again. I will not go with you. Please, brother, release me now. Give me some peace. Let me be like myself. I am not a child girl. Who will always guard my back. Mamato Bhai Mamato Be like a brother. Why have you poisoned your life? I've seen it since I was young. You don't have a life of your own, so why don't we have one? Please brother leave us alone.

Snigdha broke down and cried. But Safran was crying silently. Tears are rolling in the eyes. Snigdha's sweet words are still ringing in Safran's ears. Safran left the cafe.

But Safran is not able to walk properly. Every word said by Snigdha increased the pain in Safran's chest. Safran sat on the bike with his hand on his chest. Then he started the bike.

  Snigdha never understood Safran. Today Safran knew that Snigdha had so much hatred for Safran. For a two-day-old boy, Snigdha has told him so much today. Safran is thinking about Snigdha's words and riding the bike. Suddenly a car hits Safran's bike and immediately Safran falls on the road. Blood is pouring out from his forehead. Safran stood up slowly. By this time, many people had come to the street. Safran put his hand on his head and asked everyone to leave. Then he got on his bike and slowed down the bike and headed home. On the way, he went to the pharmacy and got his head bandaged. It will make you restless.

Standing on the balcony sipping coffee mug, Snigdha started thinking about Safran. It's been a week today but Safran brother has not come even once. In these seven days Snigdha has been hanging out with Rahat a lot. Safran brother shouldn't have talked so much. Snigdha's eyes got wet. On that day, Safran Bhai was listening to Snigdha's words without talking. Snigdha calls Safran's number. But the number is switched off. Snigdha is worried. Safran Bhai's number is never switched off. So,,, Snigdha calls Atiya Ahmed. He said let's go to uncle's house.

----now

--- Yes

--- Well you are ready.

Snigdha wears burqa and niqab. Now it will take a long time to get ready. Snigdha and Atiya Ahmed come to Safran's house with a rickshaw. Snigdha is very surprised to see Safran when she comes home. She never left the house while Snigdha was there. Snigdha Sahil and Rafia about Safran's accident. Ahmed comes to know. Snigdha realizes that Snigdha is responsible for the accident. Snigdha has gone to Safran's room several times. But she doesn't have the courage to talk to Safran. Snigdha says she will go home with her mother. Snigdha thinks maybe Safran will come with them after hearing about going home, but Safran tells Sahil to leave her at home. Snigdha gets excited by the use of saffron. The inside of the chest suddenly starts to hurt. Snigdha puts her ego aside and calls for saffron.

Brother, open the door.

Safran says from inside the room, "Say something?"

--- Yes, there was some talk.

Safran opens the door and asks Snigdha to come.

--- Tell me what to say.

--- Sorry.

--- Sorry for what?

--I'm sorry for what I said to you in the cafe that day.

---I don't remember anything.

--- It is not right for me to say so much.

--- Look what you are saying from your point of view. I don't think anything. Your life, your decision, but think 10 times about what you decide in this short life, then you will never suffer in this short life.

---Brother

--- I need to see my shop account and talk to you later.

Safran focused on the laptop. Snigdha looked at Safran with teary eyes.
