The telegram on the Table

THE TELEGRAM ON THE TABLE

      Once again his eyes fell upon the telegram which he had received weeks ago. But he had not sufficient time to read that. He always went his rented room very late night and went to bed. Because he always used to be very tired and exhausted. His work was fantastic as he wanted. In his childhood he used to think that he will learn English. And he learnt, by which he became a guide. All time he was busy and used to have a dinner in hotel. So he went to bed as quickly as he reached in his room. So since the telegram received he had not got the time to read it. He used to think that one day he would go America. And his tourists who were guided by him would welcome him and they would be the guide of him.

      One day his close friend came in that city and meets him. And his friend gave the sympathy to him. He did not know the reason of getting sympathy but he thanked him. And one night after reaching his room, he started dreaming America without closing his eyes. But suddenly in his imagination, he found his village, his friends, and his family. He has not been there for a long time. At least he had forgotten his family and village. But that day the thought his beautiful village and there’s people. Suddenly he remembered that he had got a telegram. And he started reading that. He found written that his wife had died the day after. He shocked, he stared weeping. He tore the telegram and cried and cried and cried such a long time.

If we are living in a city far from our family, we must be updated by the situation of our family. We must love them and care too. Like the person in the story, we should not be like a stone. He did not care of his family and village by which at last he feel regret and weep for a long time.
