Memories
As soon as the college ended, Avinash, Suraj and the other children started going towards their homes, but Avinash had a strange restlessness in his mind and that was for Professor Bhaskar. He was just worried that why Professor Bhaskar is not coming to college these days, has something happened to him or has he got into some other trouble.
Then thinking something, he says to Suraj, "Friend, I am feeling something strange. I am thinking of going to the professor's house once and asking about his well being. Who knows, he may need some help and I may be able to help him."
Then Suraj says to him, "Friend, you are right. You should go to his house once. I would have gone with you but I have some work to do at home, so you will have to go to his house alone." Saying this, Suraj leaves for his house and then Avinash leaves for Professor Bhaskar's house.
As soon as Avinash reaches the door of his house and knocks on the gate, he sees that the door of his house is open from inside. Thinking that Professor Bhaskar must have forgotten to close the door in a hurry, he enters the house and starts searching for him. Professor Bhaskar was busy making some machines in his secret lab.
Here, Avinash starts searching for him here and there in Professor Bhaskar's house. He looks for him in almost every room but doesn't find Professor Bhaskar anywhere. Then he starts looking at some photos and paintings on the walls of the house in which Professor Bhaskar was standing with his friends. But in all those photos, a girl's photo was common with him but Avinash didn't know who she was. He kept looking at those photos for some time and then he saw a photo hanging a little crookedly. So he thought that he should hang it straight properly.
Then as soon as Avinash tried to straighten the picture, it did not happen, then Avinash straightened it with a little force with his hands and as soon as the picture was straightened, the sound of a door opening was heard, when Avinash looked around, he saw that something like a door was open at a place in the house, then Avinash went inside that door, and as he went inside, he saw a lane-like path, as he moved forward, the lights in that lane suddenly started glowing, due to which he started seeing the path ahead, slowly that path opened in a room in which Professor Bhaskar was seen working on some machines, then as soon as Professor Bhaskar heard the sound of Avinash's footsteps, his attention went directly towards Avinash and he got scared after seeing him in his secret lab,
"Avinash, you...what are you doing in my house", Professor Bhaskar said to Avinash in a panic.
"Sir, you were not coming to college for so many days, so I thought that you might be unwell or you might be in some trouble, so I came to your house to know about your well-being", Avinash said to Professor Bhaskar.
"There is nothing like that, I was busy with some work, that's why I didn't come, but you don't worry, I will complete all your syllabus before exams, ok", Professor Bhaskar said to Avinash smilingly.
And then when Avinash started looking around in his secret lab, the Professor thought that he might see his new device which Professor Bhaskar was making at his home after taking leave from the college for many days. The Professor diverted his attention and said, "Hey Avinash, leave all this and tell me whether you have given up on your studies because I did not come to college or not", and then he put his hand on Avinash's shoulder and started taking him out of his secret lab and after talking to him about college and other things, he took him out of his lab.
Coming out, Avinash asked him, "Where are these pictures of yours from and who is this lady who is with you in every picture, is she your wife?", saying this Avinash looked at the professor,
"No she is not my wife, she is my friend who studied with me in college", Professor Bhaskar told him, then Professor Bhaskar started talking to him about college and after a while he told him to go home, Avinash agreed and then said bye sir to him and left from there.
After a while he reaches his home, and as soon as he starts going up the stairs towards his room, his step mother sees him and says to him, "I told you for so long, your college got over 2 hours ago, and now that you have come, quickly clean all the utensils and cook food, Anshu is feeling hungry, she has not eaten anything since afternoon", then Avinash goes to his room, picks up his bag, keeps it on the bed, quickly changes his clothes, goes down to the kitchen and starts washing the utensils,
When he was washing the utensils and keeping them, suddenly he remembers the face of the woman who was in that picture with Professor Bhaskar and he starts thinking, "That woman's face looked familiar, and why do I feel that I have some connection with that woman", then his step mother comes from behind him and says to him, "Wow, I asked you to clean the utensils and cook food and you are still in your dreams I am lost", then he says to his step mother, "No, it is not like that, I was just going to clean the utensils and cook food", then his step mother leaves from there mumbling something and then he starts cooking food,
After some time the food is ready and he takes food for his younger brother Anshu and goes to his room, there his step mother is feeding him chocolate and then on seeing Avinash she says, "Why did you get so late in cooking food, it is because of you that my son is still hungry, come and bring it here quickly", then as soon as Avinash turns back after giving the plate of food to her, his step mother again says to him, "Listen, bring my food here too and go and give it to your father in his room, it is time for him to eat too", then Avinash leaves from his room,
And then when he gives food to his mother and takes food to his father in his room, then his father was busy watching TV, And then he saw Avinash coming and called him with his hand gesture and said, "Hey son Avinash come inside", then Avinash goes and sits near him, "Sit here near me, and tell me how was your day in college today and are you facing any problem in studies, if you are facing any problem then ask your teachers properly and study diligently, understand son", his father said to him, then Avinash says to him, "No father there is no such problem and my studies are also going well, actually I wanted to ask you something", his father says, "Yes yes ask what do you want to ask", then Avinash says, "Today I was missing my mother a lot, you just told me that she died 3 years after my birth and then you got married again to raise me, I have not even seen her and neither is there any picture of her in this house from which I can know how she looked".
Then his father says to him, "Yes she was Yes, I married a second time for your upbringing but she never gave you the love and affection you deserved and there was a picture of your mother and me in this house but maybe your step mother must have thrown it somewhere or maybe kept it in a store room somewhere", then suddenly a voice comes on the TV, "Who is this Kashyap who saved the lives of so many people, is he an alien because it is not a common thing for a common man to have so much strength and agility", then his father says, "Look how brave he is and don't know where he has come from, he must be a savior who took out so many people from that brake failed bus and also took out people from the vehicles parked on the road in which people were stuck due to the collision of this bus, and did you see his clothes are also like yours, is this your action?", and then his father looked at him with suspicious eyes and then started smiling,
Avinash got scared at first but when his father started laughing then he felt relieved, and changing the topic he said, " What dad you too how can I do all this, if I had so much strength then why would I get beaten by that senior that day and as far as the clothes are concerned, there are many clothes of the same color and style available in the market which are exactly alike, so this will not prove that it was me, now leave all this and eat the food quickly or else the food will get cold", then Avinash passes the plate of food to them and goes from there and after going outside thinks, "Today I had a narrow escape otherwise my secret would have been revealed that I am Kashyap",
Then Avinash after having food for some time goes to his room, suddenly he remembers what his father said and then he picks up the mobile kept on his study table and calls Suraj, then a voice comes from the other side, "Hello Avinash, yes tell me how did you remember me so late at night, did you call me for the assignment that you have to submit tomorrow, and if you did for that then let me tell you that Sir had already told everyone in the college that if the assignment of any two people is the same then I will deduct the marks of both, so you will not be able to copy my assignment, you will have to make your own", Suraj said from the other side of the call, then Avinash says to Suraj, "No friend I did not do it for that, I was just telling you that today my secret was saved from getting exposed otherwise my father would have seen me in that video on TV, it was good that I had covered myself with that cloth, but to him my clothes and that Kashyap i.e. the superhero's clothes both looked the same",
"Meaning now you will also have to wear a superhero costume to hide your truth", said Suraj
But you don't have any costume, so you will have to make your own costume, then Avinash said, "Yes, it will be needed, today Papa has doubted me, tomorrow someone else will doubt me, then..."
"Friend, do one thing, draw a picture of the costume you want and if possible, take help from the internet, it is possible that someone has already made the one you want, so check there once and yes, make your assignment too, otherwise sir will deduct marks", said Suraj to Avinash and cut the call
Here Avinash also first completes his assignment and then starts searching for different designs for the costume on the internet
