In the quaint streets of Dibrugarh, young lovers Esa and Mrinal were known for their nightly serenades under the moonlit sky. Mrinal’s guitar would sing Esa’s favourite melodies, each note a promise of undying love. Their romance was a symphony of stolen kisses and shared dreams, a melody that everyone in the village adored. However, Mrinal’s health began to fade, an illness stealing his strength but not his spirit. As the days grew shorter, Mrinal’s serenades became softer, his voice frailer. Knowing his time was limited, he penned a final song for Esa, a farewell and a testament to their love. One cold evening, unable to play, Mrinal handed the sheet of music to Esa, his eyes filled with sorrow and unspoken words. With tears streaming, Esa took up the guitar, her fingers trembling, and began to play his song. Her voice carried Mrinal’s love through the streets of Dibrugarh, a poignant echo of their past serenades. As the last note faded into the night, Mrinal closed his eyes with a peaceful smile, his heart full. Esa’s tears mixed with her bittersweet melody, knowing their love, though ending in this life, would echo forever in the hearts of those who heard their final serenade.
