Those who callal in the evening go through their business quickly nod left Those who
didn t show signs of leaving would be told around eight o'clock by Bipin Babu that he was
under doctor's order to have dinner at eight-thirty. Aller dinner he would rest for ball an
boue and then turn in with a book. Thus was a routine which had
persisted unbroken for years.
Today, Bipin Babu had the feeling that sonicone was observing him from close quarters. He turned round
and found himself looking at a round-faced, meck-
looking man who now broke into a smile
'I don't suppose you recognize me
Bipin Babu felt ill at ease. It didn't seem that he hnd ever encountered this man before. The
face seemed quite unfamiliar.
"Have we met before asked Bipin Babu.
The man looked greatly surprised 'We met every day for a whole week. I
aminged for a car to take you to the Hudroo falls. My name is Parimal Ghose.
"Ranchi?
Now Bipin Babu realized this man was making a mistake. Bipin Babu had
never been to Ranchi. He smiled and said, 'Do you know who I am!
The man raised his eyebrows, and said, 'Who doesn't know Bipin
Chowdhury
Bipin Babu turned towards the bookshelves and said, 'You're making a mustake. I've
never been to Ranchi.
The nun now laughed aloud.
What are you saying, Mr. Chowdhury! You had a full in Hudroo and cut your right knce. I
brought you iodine. I had hxcd up a car for you to go to Nctarhat the next day, but you
couldn't because of the pain in the knec. Can't you recall
anything? Someone else you know was also in Ranchi at that time. Mr. Dinesh
Mukherjee. You stayed in a bungalow. You said you didn't like hotel food I'll tell you more:
you always carried a bag with your books in it on your sightseeing trips. Am I right or not?'
Bipin Babu spoke quietly, his eyes still on the books.
'Which month in Ninetech fifty-cight are you talking about?' The man said,
'October
"No, sir,' said Bipin Babu. 'I spent October Nineteen fifty-cight with a friend
in Kanpur. You're making a mistake. Good day.' But the man
didn't go, nor did he stop talking
Very strange. One evening I had ten with you on the veranda of your bungalow. You spoke
about your family. You said you had no children, and
that you had lost your wife a decade ago.
When Bipin Babu had paid for the books and was leuving the shop, the man was still looking
at him in utter disbelief.
Bipin Bobu's car was safely parked in Bertram Street. He told the driver as he got into the car,
"Just drive by the Ganga, will you, Sitarum' Driving up the Strand Road, Bipin Babu
