All the beautiful daughters of Mara, Ashok Aatreya [black male authors .TXT] 📗

such tracks and he became adolescent in another few years and then different excitement started in his life. He was crossing his middle school days on one hand he started keeping physical distance with girls of his own age group, but on the other side his mental closeness and need increased...
His first infatuation started with a burqua girl, shaheen who was the daughter of inspector of schools and lived in the closely area of Piraji.. During her old grand father's time Shaheen used to enjoy two horse couch driven by a strong Muslim pathan, who used a long whip for removing the street boys and girls who jumped on the running carriage and wanted to enjoy the back lower pedestal seat for smaller distance till they were whipped lightly…sometimes mere sound of whip falling on the black canvas cover was enough to keep children away from the horse cart. The cart was normally used for Shaheen’s grand father to take him to old kutchehary (Office) and in the return Shaheen also took a joy ride as a loving child of her parents... later when she entered the school, she used to go by Tanga (Single horse-couch) Anand would go to his school on his foot with group of his friends, but when he entered his secondary school, one new bicycle was given to him for use.
Anand’s father developed the habit of gambling few days after mother’s death in family, His father was also facing court cases. In them her Aunt played a negative role. She was involved in some-scandal by, selling of her parents property to one Vaishnav Guru, with whom she had developed physical relations, although she was married she, created problems and was mainly responsible for the fall of father’s family and overall reputation of the family.
In those days Anand lived in his Nani’s one room house which was erected adjoining the big haveli of his grand Nana on a open space having a small three walled triangular boundary made of lime stone.His one maternal uncle and mother were also living in that ‘shelter- home’.On the left side of his house another lime-stone platform was raised which was covered by a teen-shed and on its right, one big Banyan tree was standing as a strong protector. The stem of the tree with a broad circumference and firm adventitious roots formed the beauty of the religious tree having significance for occasional worship by both men and women of the nearby dwellings. A more small size rounded platform known as the Chabootara was also developed by one well-off person and a good railing of wrought-iron was put for protecting this age-old tree from street-dogs and other social miscreants. Some two centaury old small rounded stone structure known as ‘Hardol’was also there. According to hearsay this mysterious demi-god came through the sky and established there by its own will, inviting his people to settle around that land which was considered pure. Directly linking the upper-strata Brahmin community of that area, migrated from distant township of south, and was also a place of occasional worship by people of this community only. The most of the people living in the area initially belonged to religious Tantra cult and by their spiritual virtues and occult powers got the favors of the King of this old state of Bikampur.
However, the story linked with this structure, odd stone only, was quite interesting as it was related to some false charge framed on the newly wedded wife and her ‘Devar’(Husband’s brother) of their ancestral family. A sort of confusion of ‘their’ illegitimate relations prevailed in their family for a longer time that ended in sacrificing life by the boy, just to prove that the charges were baseless. Actually he possessed a very strong moral character…and the stone was being worshipped in the memory of that boy in question!
In the old times all newly wed- couples visited this pious place and took a blessing before that small-stone for their happy married life. It also became a pilgrims place for the new and old generations of the members of this community who lived in another cities and seldom visited this place…even at times when new child birth would take place in their homes.
On many other occasions the Banyan tree was also worshiped and Anand’s Nani’s home-corner almost became a centre of festivities and celebrations all through the year…Slowly and steadily lot of shops developed in the nearby street surrounding one more attractive point of that area…and that was the old and abandoned haveli…now being occupied by four to five nautch girls of infamous background. There seated a one-eyed Mochee- cobbler known as Kaaniya just opposite the house of these whores. A well formed T-junction of Tangas and hubbub of foot-path vendors also established a new kingdom there…Over-all the place became crowded in those recent years. Anand used to bring pornographic magazines and books from small footpath vendors on one Anna per day rent for his past time and kept them under his pillow or bed or between the old newspapers so as to safeguard his image in the eyes of his elders. His Nani or cousin would come to clean his small room and he was always cautious that his ‘literature’ is kept hidden.
And in those adolescent years of his formatting, Anand learnt lot of things of life. He was subjected to varied colourful experiences…His childhood blank slate became very soon the diary of a mature adolescent boy with many secret ideas and stories…A future sex manual for lot many boys and girls of his future generation.

6/HIS ADOLESCENT YEARS
During his adolescent days he developed new interest of listening to Uda’s gossips, which would come very early in the morning to his haveli and both of them left for long walks towards city park end. Uda always called him from the road side setting on a public-tap and from early to late noon ladies and gents from all caste and communities would come there to collect water in their pitcher. Many times over few drops of water they would fight among themselves …even with closest neighbours and relatives. In those summer days Uda told him interesting stories connected with rich and poor folk of the city. In those stories mostly the subject sex the center of his interest.
After the call of Uda, he would take no time in coming from the top of his house where he would be busy at roof-watching the ladies in the nearby roots bathing in open sky or starring girls pretending to study his books. That was his regular sport which he enjoyed and devoted his major morning-noon and evening time. Mostly his noon time passed behind the vast gate of an old temple where cool breeze crossed and an old lady served free and ice cold water for public. On a large size wooden board known as Pata in the local dialect ten to twelve persons enjoyed sitting and relaxing to beat the head of the desert town. Some time youngsters would bring with them caroms or chess for play.
Whenever Uda called him from the street below, he would come fast almost running on the broken stairs, risking of falling any time since the stairs required repairs and those were also of small size. There were two different staircases not at equi distance reaching the lower part of roof, leading to the roof top where mostly he would watch fascinating young ladies married or unmarried prospective girls of his age group.
The stairs used by him had a small broken half finished side wall through which many times he would watch the newly wed couple of a business family sitting in the balcony of their bed-room exchanging interrupted kisses.He seemed to have developed voyeur tendencies in his adolescent days. By the time he reached on the road he would hear irritating voices of the cough of a young but beautiful lady who became widow just after two years of her marriage. Her name was Sarita. Anand’s earlier eye to eye contact with her was through his study window. He would see the sleeping semi- nude beauty of Sarita, before she was married to broker of grains, named Bajrang.She was the daughter of a grain merchant living just opposite his grand- father's old Haveli where he spent most of his childhood and adolescent years. The heavy strong entrance was beautifully carved with designed panels of iron and brass sheets and nails and was connecting the main street throwing big size stairs of red stone. The last ladder was wide which was used by Grocers, Milkmaids. Poraitni- the charming young sexi-girls bringing white maite-limestone for hand washing .These particular girls would expose their bosoms since they used the low-cut multicoloured mirrored Polka…and that was the main attractive moment for him…he always took initiative for completing the deal with them by giving them one or two Anna’s and would try to delay the payment sitting before them and talking irrelevant things regarding the quality of their material for which she asked for high price. Those talks were entertaining and the girls also enjoyed his penetrating eye’s falling, hitting and sliding over their out bursting parts .Sometime the deal would cause abnormal delays and his Aunt called him from the interior part of Haveli as she became his care-taker after his mother’s death.

Anand was passing through such a time, that-all girls and women were attractive to him, looking beautiful or sexy, were part of his day-dreaming. He pursued, the green ‘brigade’ of school going girls in scorching noon, crossing over small streets and mohalla even many times running to see any particular girl or group of his liking as his short cuts. After performing this duty following elderly girls going to college by bus or by cycles, rikshas were his point of notice… when ever he caught sight of such girls he used to think about making relation with them…he followed them to long distances. Anand enjoyed visiting Nautanki-local theatre at late night …. colony film shows, puppets groups and keenly observed the raised, curved and partially nude parts of young girls and housewives. He left no opportunity of starring at the private parts of village or low level community girls, women taking bath at some public -taps…which normally remained open-air. He enjoyed as a coach of cycling girls and house wives and tried to catch hold of the erotic parts of bodies by his hands which they also enjoyed … In marriage ceremonies, birthday parties, hotel and restaurants… In swimming pools and circus, religious places and other sports of girls activities he always took maximum interest in his youthful days …. His activities remained hidden…sex oriented. When Anand entered his final school and college, he took the best possible benefits from such gathering and opportunities…

7/ALIENATION
The end of British rule developed a frightening new strangeness in the changing society. There was a fast and huge transformation of power affecting the lives of all. Anand’s Nana had passed away. Not having been able to bear the loss of her husband, Nani had also taken to illness. On the other hand, Anand’s father- Vishwa had suffered heavy financial losses in business. He was over burdened by old and new debts. He decided to come back to Bikampur from Culacutta. Also because other than Nani, there wasn’t really anyone to look after Anand, so he decided to start life afresh staying in his ancestral Haveli.
When Vishwa reached Bikampur, he found his sister Manorama, waiting for him. She was also in troubled waters searching for some shelter. Vishwa invited the trouble himself and Manorama came with her bag and baggage, two children and her husband to live in Haveli, the third time. This was a privilege she had; rather she considered it to be her right.
