'When we were a kid, we used to play there beta..'

'Oh wow, Baba..you had so much fun then. This picture says that.'

'Of course. We were not like you guys. You always busy to play with this boring electronics. That banyan tree has helped us to make so many memories. In the summer vacation, we had played cricket in that field and look at you! You are with the air conditioner on your whole vacation.'

'But Baba you have that ground. We don't have na?!'

' Oh really?! Ohh no..I am getting late. I have to go to the sight first. Will talk to you later.bye'

Anjan getup in the car in a little hurry. Today he has an important meeting. His company has got a very profitable sight. Before starting the car he put up his lucky charm. He always used to do that before his important meeting. And this charm never is unlucky to him. It is his truly believe.

      His lucky charm looks like an infinity symbol. It is the small branch of that special banyan tree.

    Anjan starts the car. A few moments earlier Anjan has shown their childhood pictures to his son Anupam. It was nice memories, he thinks in his mind. Suddenly Ratul, one of his office colleague calls him.

' Good morning Sir..Are you coming, sir? '

' Just two minutes, very close to the office. ' - Anjan replied.

' Okay, Sir..I send you the sight's address. You will go there directly. We are coming. '

' Okay '

Ratul texts the address to Anjan. When he sees the address he just surprises. This is his childhood colony. What a coincidence!!

But he shocked when he reaches his destination. It is that ground. Many children are playing football in front of him. Suddenly the ball come towards Anjan.

' Are you looking for something? ' - a little boy asks Anjan.

Anjan cannot able to reply. He just takes the ball and gives it to the boy.

'Thank you uncle.' he smiled and returned to the ground. Suddenly he comes back and asked ' Are you sad? I mean if you don't feel good you can join us to play. Whenever I am sad, I have come to play. It gives to me joy and this tree, it is our best place to rest and enjoy the peace. So don't worry and come. '

Anjan closes his eyes, he can see and feel the beautiful moments that he had passed away. It gives enormous happiness. Tears are coming out of his eyes. He asks himself - What I am doing?? Am I insane?! I am just trying to kill our childhoods.

     They are going to make a skyscraper in the very field and for this reason, they will cut the banyan tree which is Anjan's lovable and lucky thing also. He feels very ashamed. We always blame our children for not to play the ground but this is also true that we are responsible for this. He phones Ratul immediately.

' We must cancel the project Ratul. '

' What?????? but Sir??'

‘ It is my order..just cancel it anyhow! ’
