my biggest wish

As I sit here, tying up all loose ends in my thesis -- I can't help but daydream about the girls from ABWU. I do not lie when I tell you that I have dreams about running into Ripa on the streets of Dhaka, or finding out where she was sent after the shelter. I cry -- I am crying -- thinking about giving them the biggest hug and telling them how I never forgot about them, showing them my wrist - proving how they left an indelible impression on me. I want to be their paagli didi forever.

That is my biggest wish. Once I'm back in Bengal - it won't be a wish, but my goal and purpose. I will command it of Allah and Ganesh and all the gods.

And now I can't stop crying.
