TITLE : A Tragic Accident
In the 15thof June, 1999. I got back home from my college at 5 p.m. In the evening I said my prayer. Then I studied for three hours as usual. Next I had my supper and went too led at about 11 p.m. I was in a day sleep. Suddenly, I woke up with a hue and cry at dead of night at a little distance. I got up from bed and run to the spot. I saw that a cottage was burring. It was the darling place of a poor family. Fire engulfed each and every canter of the cottage. Every whereof the cottage, there were nothing but the hungry flame of the fire. Hearing the hue and cry of the domestic help, the inmates of the house walk up and somehow manage to save their lives. But the only son of the family, an infant, was left in the burning notate. The mother of the infant was wailing madly. She was dying for help to rescue her son. Everybody gathered there was trying to extinguish the fire. But no one dared go into the cottage to rescue the infant.
There was a universal distress all around about the fate of the infant. At this all the people became woundless. There was a pin drop silence there for some moments. Then everyone saw the young man spring out of the cottage with the little hid in his bosom. There was fire in the dress of the young man. The mother ran quickly to the young man and took her baby in her lap. Some her are men rushed to the young man with gunny sack and somehow managed to some the life of an innocent infant. Though all the belonging was burnt to ashes, the couple seemed to be happy getting their son alive.
