Memories


I forced the door open and was blinded by sunlight and choked from all of the dust that had settled in the room. As I entered, the wooden floors slightly give way. Rusty nails poked out of the floorboards and old water stains have made designs on the walls. Woods were really rusty and at any given day this house would collapse. There was reading table against the wall and top of it there were some seashells setting. Most of the drawing on the wall were washed away but some are still there but fading. There was a closet at the right hand corner of the room. I opened the closet and there was a small plastic box at the corner of the closet. As I washed the dust away, the name Partha start to become clear. I open the box and all the seashells were still there way I left it. Looks and furniture of this room has changed but memories are still trapped into this room. Big part of that is memories involved Radi. My childhood consist of ocean and Radi.


I really don t remember that much about my childhood. I grew up in a city called Citagong in Bangladesh. It wasn t a big city. There were no shopping malls or college. There was couple of elementary and high school. Most people who lived in there didn t have money to send their children to school. Whole city grew because of Koxibazar Beach and lots of people from different parts of country used to come there to visit. Most people who lived in that city some how their lives depended on the ocean. Majority of people were either fisherman or works in travel agency or at the shops around the beach. My parent born and grew up in that city. They used to work in a travel agency and never had too much time for me. From the day I got my sense there was this women who used to take care of me. Her real name was Radika but people used to call her Radi and that s what I used to call. Even though she was much older than me, I always called her by her first name and she never got angry or yelled at me because of that. She would be about forty years old by now and most beautiful and nicest women I ever met. She was really tall and had dark skin. Whenever she used to come to my room, she had duck her neck down little bid because ceiling of my room was little bid lower than other room. Otherwise she would bang her head in the ceiling. Lot of time she would get up and forget to duck her neck and bang her head with the ceiling and I would burst into laugh. She had very soft and low voice. A lot of time she would be shouting to you but you would feel that she is talking normally. The most amusing part about her was the fact that she had great understanding of people and their nature like some kind of magic. She could talk to somebody and make him or her believe in something that they never believed in before. She always had reason behind things that she did. She had beautiful green eyes. Lot of old people thinks that reason why all the bad things happened to her is because of her eyes and she was a bad luck. There were few people in the whole country that had green eyes and they were considered bad luck. She always had a smile on her face that can light up the sky. I really don t know that much about her past. All I know is that her parents died when she was really young. She got married to a fisherman. One day after seven months of marriage, her husbend’s boat sank in the middle of the ocean and he died. Since then she was living with us. At the beginning she used to cook and take care of our house. But after I was born, her main job was to take care of me.


She used to love ocean and the sunset. The beach was half a minute walk from my house, so almost everyday Radi and me used to go beach in the afternoon to play. She used to sit one place and stair at the huge waves that were crashing on the shore and get into some kind of heavy thinking. I used to play around in the stand and collect seashells. If I saw a nice seashell, I used bring that to Radii and she used to put that in the box or sometime she used to make a chain out of it. When sun was about to go to sleep, we used to sit next to each other on the sand and watch the marvels of the nature. Whole sky turned to orange and you started to feel chilly. As sun was about to disappear in horizon, whole sky used to turn red. This is the most vivid and enjoyable childhood memories I have. She taught me how to swim in the ocean and catch fish. She yelled at me once. One day she was sitting on the sand and I was in the water. Just to have some fun, I started shout like I was drowning. She ran directly into the water and pulled me out of the water. As she was pumping my stomach, she was crying. When I started to laugh, she slapped me and told me if I do that again, she won t talk to me ever. From that day I knew how much she loves me. She practically raise me and takes care of me more than my own mother. I always felt comfortable around her that I never felt with my parent. After coming back from school, I used tell her everything about the school, Things that I learned, new friends that I made and teachers that I don t like everything and she would listen to me and not complain at all. By looking at my books and listening to me, she learned to write and read. We had so fun just by talking to each other. Good thing never last long and that s what happen to me.


When I was twelve or thirteen, my parent forced me to move to America. Before I was leaving, she promised me she would write letters to me and whenever I come back, we would take me to the beach and watch sunset. One day, after I left she disappeared and nobody ever saw again. She never wrote any letter or told me where she would be?


Last summer I went back to Citagong, Bangladesh. It wasn t a small town anymore. It s a big city. Lot s of different kinds of people live there now. There are big shopping malls, beautiful hotel around the beach, lot more visitor, lot of high raise apartment. Everything changed except the sunset and the ocean. It still looks the same as it did eight years ago. As I was walking along shore, I saw other young kids collecting seashells or walking with their parent and all I could think was about Radi I don t have picture of her. All I have is some good memories. As the sunset revealed its passions, I was graving new sets of footprint along the shore and waves kept on

erasing them.
