Gumbe

Gobinda-Gumbe

It was raining since yesterday. Today, it was not pouring but fis-fis pari rathyo-bhanchhan ni drizzling tyastai. Hadigao was lucky enough in avoiding having blacktop road then. Overflown clogged stinky naali and muddy roads were common scences around whenever rain was generous enough in the tole. Bindu didi le "ye-- ye" bhanda bhandai Gumbe paati agadi swatttai chiplera naalima jhyammai paryo. Naali bata uthne tal milaudai Gumbe le mukh chhadyo "Chhimmayyee ----" Bindu didi lai dekhi nahalya bhe khali tham ni bhardinthyo Gumbe le tara brake hanyo time mai. Since the anger was scaled high, afule matrai sunne gari bheni Gumbe had to say "Ma*&^%" and he did. "ka---ka---ka---" churos kinera firta aa paisa ganna laira Haku ki aama paisa ganna chhodera naali tira herna thalin. Gumbe naali bata niskida naniskidai 5/7 jana ra tin ta bhusya kukkur bhela bhaye uslai chhekera.

Dhobi khola ko fant ma ekdin basera B.P. chuigam chapaudai mujhe insaf chahiyema Mithunlai iron le dameko gaf hanira bela ma ke samjhechha Bunga le "--ye Gumbe, ani lati agnialti nihiloni ni hai--- " bhanna thalyo Gobinde lai herera. Tyaha dekhi Gobinde "Gumbe" bhaigo. Latte kapal ma salla ko khoto tyasya jasto "Gumbe" gobinde ma tasya tasyai ani ta. Aba Bunga ko pani ke dosh? Sathi ali latheuro latheuro thyo.

Even if Gumbe's ba had seen Gumbe then coming out of naali, he wouldn't have recognized his son. My god! Dashain ma mattai halya safari sut ko pants ta herna nahuni bhaigo. Gumbe was heading to Dhalku to fetch a taxi. Balaju gas lina janu parnesilindar bokera lana nasakine bhako le dhalku bhatbhateni bata taxi liyera aauna hineko thyo som. Jhamela ma paryo. He was mad at tamashe who were standing in arch covering him. Tyatro tamasha dekhi sake pachhi Diwakardai asked, "ke bho ye Gumbe?" Gumbe did not reply. Mood nai thiyena ni. Betod le bhuki raka bhusya kukkur lai laat handim ki bhanera sankina lako thyo Gumbe feri chipliyera tyahi naalima pariyela bhanera he decided to spare them this time and headed back home. Tintai bhusya kukkur ra duita fuchche ni ali para samma pachhi lage.

As Gumbe was approaching his chowk, he noticed his kaaki's head in burja. Dhoka ma gajabar lako re chha. Dui laat hanyo, Gumbe le jhok ma. "ye ko huh?" kaaki asked. Gumbe was not interested in answering but he had to so in his angry voice he said "Ma". "Ko ma?" kaki asked in some raised voice and also said "ye bhaicha, ja ta hera tala ko aako". "Ko huh tala?" kaki asked again. Gumbe lai jhanakka ris uthyo "kina janne hunu parne jo bhe ni---*ma* bhanisake si ta -- . Before he could say anything more, bhaicha opened the door then screamed, "yaw maaaaa". Mom came running down. Aama lai dekhna saath Gumbe le charko swarma bhanyo "sakdina ma lyauna lai gyas syas". Aama le nai naali ma dhakeldeko ho ki bhane jasto garera jangiyo Gumbe.

"mathi dund ma haath khutta dhuna&ahile dhara aako chhaina ta". Gumbe answered. "hunna hunna---yasari ni koi sama sama mathi janchha ? ja dadam ma pani hola tyasle pakhal.." mom said. "aankha herera hinnu chhaina---hera luga ko gati" mom was a bit screaming.

Dadamko chiso pani le pakahl pukhul parera halka nuhai dhuwai sakiye si arko luga feryo Gumbe le. Then, extra das rupya dinchhu bhanera aama lai kabul garayesi sabadhani saath Gumbe went to Dhalku again to fetch a taxi. This time he followed a different galli. He didn't want to face those same tamases out there. He brought the taxi and with bhaicha's help put the cylinder in the trunk. Purano Toyota corolla taxi rechha. Ghari ghari engine banda huna khojthyo. Hadigau-dhalku-bhatbhateni samma straight then left at bhatbhateni and right at tangal ganesh then straight through uttar dhoka. All this way driver was sniffing as if he's a sikari kukkur. "ke dung dungti ganako?" driver asked. Gumbe knew what it was but he kept quiet. When the driver asked again, he said ali jharkera "malai ke tha? Malai ni ganai ra chha".

Bhada tirera taxi bata niskeko matrai ke thyo school ko sathi Debesh lai bhetyo. "ye debe"-- "ye gumbe" chalyo. Ali chheu tira sarera both started to talk. Debesh was sniffing all the time looking around. "ke ganako yo?" taile ke tekera aa jasto chha, Debe said looking at Gumbe's shoes. Gumbe knew the story so he said, chhaina kehi ni gana sana".
