Ananda came to Grandfather's house on vacation. In the late afternoon he stands on the banks of his haunted river. He has many childhood memories around this river. Anand came to see the river for the first time with his younger uncle. The river is not far from his grandfather's house, it can be clearly seen. A road to cross at a run. The first day he came riding on his younger uncle's shoulders, in winter. There was no current in the river then, there was clear water. Algae under the water, even a small fish or two could be seen with the algae. On that day, the calm waters of the river were crossed by boat. They ate nuts there. Uncle raised many almond trees. Anand knows the joy that Anand got from seeing the river, riding in the boat and getting raw nuts. I remember the joy of that day more than I remember the pain. Anand then studied in the village school in nine, swimming in the river with his classmates, catching fish whenever he wanted. Once the first rains in March caused some water to accumulate in the river. The river is not completely full, but a stream of water is flowing the length of a large dam. Very easily swimmable water. A few people planned a swimming competition by going to the river bank. Munna is the best swimmer among them. Robin is too fat, can't swim. Munna, Mamun, Nayan, Jamil and Anand prepared for swimming by putting on their clothes and shoes, wearing shorts. Bet one hundred rupees on swimming. Munna will start swimming after everyone has crossed halfway across the river. If he can climb that bank first then others will give Munna one hundred taka, and if they climb that bank first then Munna will give them one hundred taka. Robin started the swimming competition by saying one, two, three, move. Everyone is swimming across the river except Munna. After going to the middle, Munna jumped into the water. Munna is moving fast with water splashing. Robin assumed that Munnai would win, he didn't look at it anymore. He called the sailor to go over there. Went there and gave everyone clothes. Everyone got dressed. Only Munna's clothes remained. Munna! Where is Munna? Munna did not swim? Robin said, gave. Someone said - Shala lost the bet and ran away. Someone said, where will Chandu run away? You have to come to the Eidga field in the evening. Someone said, no, Munna is not a boy to run away, he cannot run away. Robin said, is Munna's lack of money to cheat you for a hundred rupees, I don't remember the service picnic where you all ate ice cream. Badminton rackets, feathers, all Munnai bought, or? Everyone stopped, looking at each other's faces.
Anand told the story to the sailor. The sailor didn't say anything. Munna did not come to Eidga field in the evening. His bicycle is on his porch. Their housekeeper came and searched everyone's house. The next morning, Anand woke up to the screams of several voices. He opened his eyes and saw Mamun, Nayan, Jamil, Robin standing with their heads down like criminals. Munna was found riding in the Kasari ground, funeral today at noon in the school ground.
