Fare you well :) I have seen dust, autumn fall, spring set, disappearing of stars from the sky of Kolkata, I have let go of broken toys, rusted bicycles, torn letters, old teddy bears and half written diaries. None felt like you, none. I don't know where you were before we met, how much longer would you stay with all of me who always irritates you being an emotional fool and with her useless state of existence. Because forever is cliché. And always is never. Do you know I have a fascination for woods? The woods which welcome me everytime unfailingly, with a tree house, a burrow and a muffler in it? I keep walking there. I walk and I meet people, people I knew long ago, people I know now, people I never knew. They can't see or hear me. Yet I talk to them, sometimes unconsciously, sometimes consciously because resistance goes away from my mind. Sometimes on the roads, the unkept promises, the dedicated songs and the words of poems scatter along. They interrupt my tired j...
Dear Professor McGonagall, It is always wondrous for me to see how you have cared for someone who was never very expressive about his  feelings, understood when he needed something or when  he was just upset without letting others know, so much that I always go back to the chapters of the books or the scenes from the movies to feel how good it would have been if I had a mother like you've been to Harry. The journey of Harry Potter for me came late but was the best. And one of my favourite reasons to come back to the stories is because the way you were always being patient with Harry. From being protective about him when he was being brought by Hagrid to the Dursleys, offering him a ginger newt biscuit when he was sent off by Umbridge and was in an extremely bad mood, to standing by his side for his dream to be an auror in the Ministry of Magic even if it was the last thing you'd do in your life and supporting him when he went against Snape to fight the Dark Lord.

Mother's Day

I have made a small tree house, so small that nobody would fit there except both of us. It does not have a balcony like you have dreamt or a water pool near it. It will have us. It will have sleeping me on your lap. I will sleep for hours, no complaints okay? And then, I'll make a cup of tea for you which I have recently learnt and I'll talk about the dreams I see, the people who are important to me, if I have a boyfriend, and about all my illegal demands and complaints against the world. When you pass through Earth to the the nearest planet, wait for me. Awake me up if I'm asleep. I will take you, take you there, where I will not have to share you, share you with anyone. You will only be my mother and nobody to the rest of the world. You will awake me while you pass through earth, will you not? Happy mother's day :')
