jindagile pelyo prabho--naramro pelyo--- jotise le aba sabai ramro hunchha bhanya chha ra matrai natra ta ma ta khattam. purano din samjhe prabho---life tyati bela po ramailo thyo ta. Lachhmi--- Long ago, Bange and I went to Jay Nepal to watch a movie. Eutai cinema mahinau lagthyo?so did not matter what movie was playing. Khalti ta sadhai jastai uhi ta ho ni pwal parya thyo. Tyai pani tyai pwal bata yaso aula chhiraunai parne---huda huda pwal ta bhwang hune. Anyway, we got to the hall and headed straight to where our aaukat was?seken/thir class entrance by the cycle stand. The movie was already in progress and there was luckily (so far) no one at the entrance tikas chyatna basya. Our (Bange?s and mine) eyes sparked, hearts pumped up and our excited feet took us thru the first shutter gate. Now, we were at the most dangerous place. This was like a small buffer room between entrance to the theatre and the exit. There was one more gate to enter to see the movie and if caught without ticket (hami sanga ke tikas hunthyo) there, gatekeeper, blackey or whoever was in a beating mood would entertain his wish on us. So, without wasting much time we approached the door to the theatre. A black and perhaps never washed since it hung there curtain welcomed us and so did a whassss aako pasina ra baayuko gandha from inside. What else to except from a seken/thir class chamber? Charlie sent? We got in. We could not believe. Bange and I wanted to congratulate each other for our unbelievable success but we could not see each other?s eyes. Bange threw his eyes directly at the screen when I was still looking around for a safe place to land. Dharmik cinema re chha---Bishnu ko khutta laxmi le halka sanga michi raheko drishya thyo. Bange jo 12 barsa hudo ho tyati bela (ma dash jati ko thiye hola)--le hwatta bhanyo ?yo lachhmilai paye ta ma ahilei bya gardinthe, ta ni huh? garthis?? Obviously, dui jana le nai lachhmi bya garne kuro ma hamro aapatti nabhayeni chheumai aaipugya lightman lai bhane aapatti bhe chha kyare sodhyo? ?Khai tikat?? Bange ra malai gardan ma haat ra kammar muni laat handai bahirako buffer room ma lyayo muntyaudai ---hamile dai dai ma haina dai bhanda bhandai pani dui char khotta hane si garjiyo ?la yaha PT khel mu** haru?. ?Timiharuko bauko cinemahall ho yo?? Murkha lightman parechha ---bidwan bhaye ta kina lightman bhayera basi ranthyo ni---aba hamro bauko cinema hall bhako bhe telle tyasari saasti dina pauthyo hamlai? So, obviously, neither we nor our family owned the theatre. Ke bhanne? Murkha ko fela pare si.. Tara das pandhra minet goda faat satark ani haat kahile agi pachhi ladai pyaat garne ani kahile tauko mathi lagera pyatta parne--tyasto sabai garesi shutter dhoka bata ni ghokraidiu bhate le---firta hall ma chhiraidinchha ki bhanne jhino aashalai chyat chut parera. Bange and I did not speak to each other until we hit Nagpokhari. Then Bange broke the silence, ?lachhmi chwak ta kya chwank hai??
