Confession #26

You probably don’t know about my accidentally spilled out dialogues, do you? Well you should have. They got pretty much famous by this time. Okay I know you’re getting confused about what I’m saying now but you’ll soon figure out…
When I was in class nine, I had this stupid talk with Armita (Don’t ask about her, she’s a complete weirdo) I was being retarded through the whole conversation. You know how I am, right? I was just messing with her, making fun of her. So she kind of got annoyed and said, “You’re totally spoiled, Ramisa!” And you know what I responded to her? Let me tell you the exact thing I had said to her-
“AMI TO JONMO THEKEI NOSHTO!”
And she told the whole class about this. Trust me, I was as surprised as everyone there when it came out of my mouth. And this dialogue has famed me since, it had been echoed numerous times as to mock me. I am still ashamed of what I just said that day. It has a dual meaning if you know what I am referring to. Noshto as Bangla is “Ruined” as in English. I can show you some verbal use of it. I’d been asked, “Who ruined you, Ramisa?!” And worse.

This happened at the time of my Mama’s ( uncle’s) wedding three years ago. I couldn’t attend my exams as I was attending his wed. So after a week, back to the regular classes while everyone was getting their test results, I was sitting idly and all pouty. My friends were sitting next to me checking their exam sheets. What I wanted to say to them was – Because of my mama’s wedding I couldn’t give my exams. Instead I said-
“AMAR MAMAR JONNO AMAR BIYE EI HOLO NA!!” (Because of my MAMA I couldn’t get married!)
And they laughed out loud hearing this, I was as shocked as they were, TRUST ME!! I was like “NO-NO-NO! I didn’t mean to…” But who am I kidding. Those retarded bastards spread this to the whole class and I on the other hand was embarrassed as hell.

Confession #27

He didn’t notice me much today. I tried my best to talk with him, to be seen by him. But I was left unnoticed and annoyed as hell. What’s up with this guy?! I get that he was busy but still. He was talking with the other girls mighty fine!  I can’t do this anymore, really. This one-sided crush is going nowhere. It’s gonna drag me straight to hell. I have to stop loving him. But these feelings, they just wouldn’t go. I love him to bits. I can’t even spend the day without thinking about him.
I know I have no future with him. He ages like what, 32 or so?! And I turned 18 this year. Loving him would be just a shout in the void. I’ve to stop this. From now on I won’t look for his sympathy or attention. I won’t crave to see him smile or stare at his great looking hands. I won’t look deeply in his eyes searching for LOVE. It may sound filmy, but I often get lost in his eyes shamelessly which from now on; I won’t do it again. I promise, I won’t stare at him relentlessly, shamelessly and vulnerably.
This would be the last confession I’m making about him, I won’t grow my feelings for him any further. I won’t day dream about him because in reality we just don’t belong together. But I want him to be happy. I pray for his good health. Despite the age difference, my love for him will stay forever young. I’d love him, always. But I’d never, ever expect him to love me back… OMG! I AM SOUNDING LIKE AMI CHEKA KHAIC.

spring is almost here

Hi B,  Season is changing. The hard days are almost over.  The city I live in has turned so beautiful, I get overwhelmed by the beauty.  Tulips are in. Cherry blossoms are blossoming.  Magnolia, Beautiful white flowers, name unknown to me.  Taking a walk out feels like a celebration of life.  It feels like I'm falling in love with the city.  I remember when I first moved here 2 years ago, the excitement and the crippling anxiety of starting a new life from scratch. Now, after 2 years, I feel a warmth and love for the place.  I don't know if I would feel the same when the winter comes though. Seasonal depression is no joke.  My new mantra for life now is to chill.  Praise the nature and find pretty little corners in the city.  Write poems.  Paint, maybe.  Seek positivity.  Love. Be kind to self. No rush. Read books. Just flow.

long distance again

 I came back from my trip. It was amazing 2 weeks of my life. Seeing him again after so long felt strange yet peaceful. I finally got to be in his arms again. 2 weeks flew by and now I am back home and back to work and normal hustle and bustle of life.  He got an extension offer and decided to stay for another 3 months. It is sad because he was supposed to be back next month. He asked me if he should take it and despite having my heart aching I supported him in the decision. It is not confirmed yet but he probably be staying another 3. Another 5 months of long distance. How am I going to survive the winter by myself? I don't know. Honestly, in my heart, I don't care about how much compensation he be getting. I miss him so much and this long distance thing is killing me inside. Today is Friday night and instead of cuddles and movie, I am home alone. No plans to look forward. No one to talk to. I am the loneliest girl on earth right now. He is probably sleeping and not picking u...

winter together

 Dear B,  Sorry I've been so MIA. Here's the update you missed - My husband came back! He wasn't approved for those 3 months of extension. I've been getting enough cuddles and kisses to survive this winter.  Yes, winter is here. Never underestimate the Canadian winter. It's the worst. Everything is grey and dark. However, I am looking forward to going home in March. I'm so excited to see my friends again. Most importantly my parents and brother. It feels a strange kind of feeling. I am planning to 'visit' the place I was born and call home. It is definitely a new kind of feeling.  Things been okay. We are okay. I am glad to have him back.  We bought a new couch and a coffee table. It's still in back order and I'm impatiently waiting for them to arrive.  Can't believe only 4 days left to 2026. Time is flying so quick. Hope we talk again, B. I swear I missed you!
