Another Weird Room/Six

You termite!

Yes?

Nothing.

Anything wrong?

I wanted to ask you the same thing.

Yap, something is very wrong.

So, tell me, uipoka!

The engine is making noise, a couple is kissing like hell
and also masturbating in the corner seat, and……

And?

I feel like doing it.

So, do it!

Can’t! I feel like fucking like anything!

Awww……..shouldn’t have left the wife behind.

Not wife, fool! OK you kid! Drop it.

I was planning to do something but now it’s kinda
risky………Lol……..Let’s drop the idea then!

What were you planning?

Can’t take that risk now………

Tell it. I hate making naksha!

Naksha! Wow!

Tell me.

Let it be. I told you I hate rudeness.

OK.

How can you be so rude while I was trying to cheer you up!

I’m sorry. Now tell me what you were about to tell.

It’s not always OK to be rude, Dupur. I wasn’t feeling good
about it that you were not OK. So, I thought I could do something to make you
feel better.

What was that?

I thought you like to fantasize so I was planning for that
only.

Fantasize what?

Nothing.

Hmm

You are a celebrity so you can have that attitude. I’m
sorry. For disturbing.

Here you go again?
OK your life, your choice!

Nothing to start here. The way you treat………..

Alright. I’m sorry.

Why are you saying sorry?
Do you realize that you hurt me?

Yeah. I’m a terrible person!

It’s not about being a terrible person! You
hurt really deep!

Yap, I love it digging deep!

Not funny!

I’m.

Is it fun?………to hurt someone?

No.

You are just too good at it!

No.

No what?

My head!

Hmm.

So, please don’t come on a cheap celebrity’s wall.

Meaning?

You liked something. It was personally attacking and
offensive!

Offensive?

I blocked all related to it except you!

Writers can’t take everything to heart like this. You need to have some courage!

I don’t care.

I’m honoured that you didn’t block me.

I’m who I’m.

That’s good.

I’ve decided not to change myself for some idiots.

But your post wasn’t right, you know. I didn’t say anything about that though.

Forget it.

You generalized girls! Is it OK?

Just felt like saying it.

Not all the girls are same.

I know what I wrote.

OK.

I don’t need any further explanation. Hope you can
understand.

I’m not even asking for any explanation. Don’t take it
personally.

OK OK!

Thanks!

I don’t have time to talk to idiots.

Was that fit for me?

That’s why, I block. I didn’t block you. You mean much to
me. OK ta ta!

Lol………Thanks!

All the books I’ve read in my life, the movies I’ve watched—these idiots haven’t even eaten that much rice in their lives. What’s the use of making them feel important? They’re
nothing to me!

Is it right to get this angry? Keep your head cool!

I’m nothing to them…….fact, funny though. So, I live, I
let them live.

You did humiliate me, but still I’m keeping my head cool while talking though
I didn’t like that at all!

Om shanti!

Cause I value relationship…….

I don’t need idiots in my life. I value relationship not
with those who don’t deserve it!

You asking me?
Just say it straight!

Shut up,
stupid!

Stupid—now that’s accurate!

Bye! Go eat some puffed rice!

Where are you going?

From Khulna
to Jhenaidah.

You travel
a lot!

Yes.

Keep your cool.
Have a safe journey.

Hmm!

You’re really angry,
I can tell. Just like I’ve stopped
commenting on your posts, I’ll have to stop liking other people’s comments too. And you see the
messages but don’t reply!

……………………………………

OK that was a clear insult. Listen, Mr Dupur, just because I
care about your presence doesn’t mean I’ll accept your rudeness. I’ve never
tolerated rudeness and I’ll never do that in future as well. Like it or lump
it. Don’t ever take me for granted, never. You might be anyone but I didn’t
permit you to humiliate me. If you can be nice to me stay, if you wish to be
rude then leave and include me in your block list. I’m not a showpiece to
enhance the beauty of your inbox. Hope you understand. Your life, your choice.
Take care. Bye.

Good morning!

To you too!

Hot-headed stupid
one!

Stupid, yes. But not hot-headed.

Alright then, cool-headed.

Lol

Devil…demon…
Next, please! I’m sending you
two song links…listen!

Who are you calling what?
You deleted my message and then
accepted the message request again!

On my wall. Check
the link.

I saw yesterday’s.
If you had to delete the message, you could have just said so—I wouldn’t have
messaged anymore. Then you wouldn’t have had to bother accepting it either!

Anything else? Please, get it all out!

What else can I say?
I just said what I saw!

Which piece of writing
is this post from? He posted
some part of your writing. If you can, give me the link to the original. I’m
finding some similarities with myself. I’d like to read it.

I’ve forgotten.

Oh! I can’t comment
on his post either, can’t
ask him.

I see.

What are you doing?

Lying here alone.

Did you eat at night?

Yeah. You?

Me too. Are you
in Jhenaidah?

No. In Malda.

You always answer
in riddles! Aren’t you writing? What happened to that
big piece you were working on? Everyone’s waiting
for it.

I am writing, and then I’m not. Nobody’s waiting. I’m
not consistent.

Lots of people are.

I’m whimsical.

And mysterious too.

I don’t get it.

Of course you don’t!

I’m a fucking idiot!

Hey! Why do you talk
like that? So many people love
you! You understand what’s in people’s hearts. You can speak what’s in people’s hearts.

Everyone hates me. You
don’t know.

Nobody hates you,
fool! But it’s
true you get rude sometimes. By the way, your
replies are really funny!

I’m awful. I’m
rude. I’m original.

I didn’t say awful.

I’m originally
rude and arrogant!

It’s your straightforwardness that makes people like you. Why do you stay rude or
arrogant? It hurts people so much.

What can I do? That’s just how I am!

I can sense there’s a good person inside you!

No good person! Devil inside!

I can sense. You can’t hide.

You don’t understand shit!

What you teach us!

I’m fucking clueless!

Why do you talk like this?

Because it’s true!

Your millions of
followers aren’t there for nothing.

They’re idiots! I’m an
idiot too.

Listen, first tell me, am I disturbing you?……I’m one of them too…….If
you remember!

Idiot. You’re an idiot’s
friend! So, you’re an idiot too!

You only call me friend
with your mouth. What did I do wrong now?

You did nothing!

I asked you something before that too!

You’re not. But
you won’t help me
at all!

What help?

I asked you to find me a
girlfriend. You got angry. Actually, I’m the bad one! You’re the good one!

How am I supposed to find
you one?

Exactly! I’m sorry.

There’s nothing good or
bad about it.

I spoke without thinking.

I don’t judge whether I’m good or bad. Come on, man, I can help, but first tell me who needs it! You know, I helped my ex hook up with that friend of mine! So, you choose one. Then I can help. And you are busy!

Give me some beauty who’s the “don’t mind” type, someone who knows how to respect. I know you won’t help. You just enjoy talking with me, that’s all.

That’s true. I do enjoy talking.

I don’t feel it that much. I prefer writing and reading more.

But it’s not true that I won’t help. Okay. Sorry to disturb you!

You won’t. I can sense things.

What?

You’re not the helping type. Or maybe you think I’m worthless. Because I don’t go to the gym, don’t look that smart either. And many other things.

You’ll need some more time to know me.

No prob.

Want to hear some praise?

Nah, bro! I just said what I am!

Okay, sis! But I am happy with myself!

But you don’t enjoy talking.

You’ve taken me lightly. I’m not sexually loyal like you!

I haven’t taken you lightly.

You’re a friend, that’s why I asked you to help. You have taken me lightly!

I said I don’t judge loyalty.

I understand. You just want to talk, you want us to give each other time, that’s what you want.

I told you there’s still a lot left for you to know about me.

And you’re not into anything else. That’s the reality. I don’t know you. That’s true.

Exactly!

Because you don’t share everything. You hide yourself.

You don’t even give me time!

I do. That’s why you know me.

Should I share on your wall? I talk to the walls most of the time anyway!

My patience is low.

I can tell.

Waiting day after day—that afternoon gave up long ago.

But I have much more patience. But you don’t have time to wait anymore. Now everyone waits for you.

You are as you are, I am as I am. I don’t have time to explore that much.

We’re all just as we are.

So much work.

That’s true!

Yes.

You’re so busy.

Not really.

Can you call?

What’s the point of giving you time? You don’t help me.

We’re not trading here.

You just keep looking for someone else’s shadow in me. Nothing more. Don’t talk nonsense.

That you’re calculating profits and losses.

What rubbish! Who do you think you are?

Okay, okay, will you call?

You don’t understand friendship at all!

Why are you getting angry?

You took it very badly. I’m hurt.

Cool your head, fool!

Sorry.

You’re just thinking whatever you want. You’re talking from your own assumptions.

Hey buddy, I don’t fit into your society. I know that.

Will you call or not?

I don’t mix with the high class.

Talk less nonsense.

When I decided to message you, I assumed you’d pity me. That’s what happened. Good.

But I’ve said one thing many times.

Good night. Take care.

Should I call? I’m calling.

Don’t! I’ll say something stupid.

Pick up the phone.

What I said stands. Ugh!

What happened?

How could you say that??

What did I say?

You’re all saints, and I’m the only thief! Hypocrite!

You’re misunderstanding!

I get it. I’m a businessman. That’s it!!

Please pick up the phone!

Why did I even tell you this!

Ugh, this afternoon!

Ugh!!

Why are you talking like this?

I thought you were someone I could ‘speak to without thinking twice.’

But you were calculating profits and losses.

I was wrong. I didn’t mean that.

That’s just how I am as a friend. Everything can be said.

Okay, we won’t chat anymore. Let our relationship be formal.

If you want to leave, you can do it another way too.

You never can tell. I know your type.

You don’t need to make excuses like that to leave. You don’t know anything!

Say a bit more and you hurt me with your words, you react.

You’re the one hurting me! How many times have I told you to answer the phone!

Actually, we don’t understand each other. Better to stay away than deal with misunderstandings.

Understanding takes time. I already said if you want to go away, you can just go. You don’t need to make excuses. And I told you that from the very first day. That you’d leave, that you wouldn’t stay. Remember?

Oh come on, just stop being formal.

I knew it.

You’re such a big person, I know.

I’m not being formal. Please!

I’m known to be bad, inappropriate—you don’t need to elaborate on all that. I know.

Answer the phone. Talk to me.

I told you, I won’t. I’m not even worthy of talking to you.

You’re hurting me like this?

I’m a farmer-laborer-rickshawallah type of person.

Maybe this is your way of saying I’m the one who’s not worthy of talking to you.

I only understand those things.

You didn’t answer the phone.

And you people are high-class righteous folk! Height of hypocrisy!

That just shows how much respect you have!

Whatever. Forgive me. Take care.

You don’t need to make excuses to leave like this.

As much as I respect you, I fear you even more. You can’t take very much.

You could have just said it straight.

Build walls and then try to connect.

That you don’t want to talk anymore! No opportunity has come to break down walls. You just keep pushing me away.

Listen, don’t come here in broad daylight to teach me ethics. I’m bad—you don’t need to keep reminding me of that.

I never learned to force myself close to someone. I said I don’t judge!

If you’re a hundred percent righteous, then don’t associate with me. I’m not like that in any way.

What would you judge me with?

I don’t need to judge you. I don’t do it either.

Please, just talk to me on the phone! One last time!

I said, I won’t.

At least say goodbye!

I don’t even have that worthiness!

Why do you keep
reminding me?

I love you,
you crazy girl! I couldn’t hold it back
anymore! Bye.

I know,
I’m not worthy of you.

I don’t know
why I behave this way with you. I’m rude, but not this much.

Dupur, please! I beg you.

I can’t find any
explanation for this.

Don’t do this to me.

I really feel like
crying. I’m not like this, I’m not like this, I’m not like this!

I’m already destroyed! There’s nothing left of me to break again.

Don’t video call
me. And listen, I don’t want to
break you or build you up.
I just show you who I am.

I’m sorry.

None of your feelings
work on me. I’m the one who annoys. I’m sorry.

Not at all.

If you were here,
I’d fold my hands and beg forgiveness.

You don’t give a damn
about me anyway.

I’m afraid of myself. That’s why I stay away. But I can’t.

I’m saying this with
folded hands.

When you knock, I go
crazy. I have no explanation for this.

You don’t even read
my messages.

I’m awful. I’m
despicable.

Don’t say that.

I’m just a person
driven by biological needs.

You crazy boy!

I’m not loyal. I’m
deceiving my wife. I’m bad.

I don’t judge loyalty. We’re all deceiving someone or other. To survive in this world, you have to live by deception. Last
request. Talk to me.

Since September 3rd,
I’ve become even ruder to you. I don’t know why.

I can see that.

I don’t know what
I saw in you. I really think about you like crazy all day, all the time. I’m making a mistake. I’m not worthy of you.
I’ll move away. Please forgive me.

Will you talk?
I’ve come to my father’s house.
I won’t be able to talk any other day even if I want to.

I said I won’t talk. I feel like crying.

Okay.

I’m getting angry at
myself. Okay.

You insult me again!

You’re thinking
whatever you want!

I said it was my last request.

Think! Think more!
It’s lust, of course! This is one-sided love. Better if it’s just lust. Better if it ends. I
know.

Don’t talk nonsense.

I don’t need anyone to
explain it to me.

I’m explaining it to
myself. Won’t you say anything? I knew you
would leave. You could have gone without causing this pain.

…………………………………………

I tried very patiently
to read it through. But sorry, couldn’t finish it in the end. I managed to read up to where the girlfriend leaves. Boyfriends run away too, not just boyfriends.

Hmm.

Did you eat lunch?

Yes. Now I’m
eating sweets and namkin. And writing.

Good. Eat and write.
The writing turned out well. Hurry up and finish the whole thing! I want to read it all at once.

Alright, okay.

What are you doing?

Writing.

OK.

KO.

Cheeky boy. Go on,
write. Eagerly
waiting……..I sent the message around 8, you saw it around 3! If this is your love, which amounts to nothing but deliberately keeping distance, then so be it. Victory to your love.

Do you know it’s
easy to annoy you?
Just see the message and
don’t reply—the boy gets all worked up! ……….Hehehe, but I’m not getting worked up.

It’s not right to
take your own assumptions as someone else’s reality. That’s your assumption
that I get worked up.

Exactly!! Not right,
not right!! Absolutely not right!!

After reading your status,
I immediately checked if you’d blocked my messages too! You were born with infinite powers to charm girls, weren’t you?

Bullshit!

Yes, total bullshit!

Good thing!

Of course it’s good!
Why would it be bad? Charming girls must
feel pretty good!

Exactly!

That’s why I want to
stay away. Who knows when you’ll charm me again! Then go away!…….What an ass!
Won’t even look at messages! I’m leaving. Bye!

Okay, bye!

Now tell me who you’ve
been charming.

I don’t do that.

Don’t give me that
crap. Why do you act like this? What’s wrong with telling me?
You player! Fine, I get it! Enjoy your time! Ta-ta.

I was really just
replying to comments.

I can see everything!

You just misunderstand everything!

I’m even liking
your comment! Why would I misunderstand? Read the comment on that last poem! I don’t usually comment, or I would have written something!

Hahahaha

You keep trying to
charm the girls. I’m leaving!

Good morning.

Good afternoon.

Let me share one of my
favorite poems. Read it, how is it?

you finally arrive

at the Sunday where clouds moor

rest, just like a lie

make sure no one’s watching

it’s performing on a keyboard

days white and nights black

performing tomorrow

that chain of happiness

the dead broke free of shadow

and locked up the sky

Oh, come on! I
shared something personal and secret with you. I thought I could tell you this.
You’re someone who understands! How could you mock me like that? Don’t mock someone’s emotions. You don’t
know how deep it cuts!

I don’t understand.
Tell me in detail.

You don’t need to understand.

I’m telling you to
explain.

I didn’t expect this
from a writer of your caliber. I’m deeply hurt.

You’re not someone who
blames others unnecessarily. Tell me.

I’m not blaming you.
Some of the fault was mine too. I don’t like blame game.

Just tell me directly.

Instead I take the blame on me.

I don’t understand when
you speak in circles.

It’s OK. I’m not speaking in circles. Just
shocked! I’m absolutely
devastated! Anyway, I’m sorry.

Stop talking nonsense and
pick up the phone, please.

My words are nonsense!
I’m angry at myself.

That’s what I’m saying,
explain the matter clearly.
I really don’t understand.

It’s OK. I’m not even blaming you. It was my fault. I
shouldn’t have said what I did.

I still don’t understand.
Don’t blame someone based on
misunderstanding, knowing it’s wrong. That’s
what children do.

I’m not blaming you.
I told you the fault is mine.

But you’re misunderstanding.
That’s not right.

Maybe. You writers
are always right!

We’ve built the kind of
relationship where we can speak directly to each other. You tell me.

We ordinary
people are the ones who are wrong. The relationship that had developed between us—I believed in it. That’s why I said what I did.

This girl! Tell me
straight what happened. I haven’t done anything that would justify you saying all that. I’m confident. Now tell me.

I know you are confident.

Now tell me.

Let it go. People
learn from their mistakes. I’m learning too.

Answer the phone.

I’d learned from her
too. No, I won’t answer.

Then tell me
what happened. I swear by my writing, I truly don’t understand what’s going on.

You don’t need to
swear. It’s your writing that brings you respect.

Okay, stay with your misunderstanding. If you trust me at all,
I’m telling you again—you’ve got it wrong.

I already said it
could be wrong! You people are always right! I sent you the screenshot. Look at it. This particular thing you said really hurt me.

I couldn’t hold back
the tears.

I see!
Hahahahaha

I know I made a mistake.

This girl! You’re
really just a cute kid!

A mistake I’m still
paying for.

When I was writing
that, you didn’t even cross my mind!

I’ve never understood
what love means in life. And I never will. Maybe I’m wrong.

Come here, let me
give you some love!

Maybe you didn’t
write it thinking of me, but I felt terrible.

Truly, you weren’t
on my mind.

I was deeply hurt.
After she left, I made a promise to myself never to cry again. But you brought tears to my eyes. Do you know how much it hurts to swallow back tears?

You silly thing! Have
you eaten lunch? Go eat something. When you feel calmer, talk to me on the phone for a bit, sweetheart.

I don’t want to
talk. Because if I do, I won’t be able to stop crying. But I can’t break my promise. Every moment I’m swallowing tears. I am tired now…I’m sorry. Maybe I overreact a bit too much. You know what, I’ve become like this from all the hurt. Sorry.

Baby, have you eaten?

No.

Why?

Just because. You?

Go eat. Then we’ll
talk. I’m not running away—I’ll be here. Sometimes I get a little angry, just handle it, that’s all. I’m not really a bad person.

Silly. If you call,
I’ll answer.
