रूसो उस समय बालक था। रविवार के दिन पाठशालाकी छुट्टीमें उसे अपने चाचाके यहाँ गये बिना चैन नहीं पड़ती थी। उसके चाचाका एक कारखाना था। रूसो एक रविवारको अपने चचेरे भाई फेजीके साथ चाचा के कारखानेमें घूम रहा था। अचानक उसने एक मशीन के पहियेपर हाथ रख दिया। उस समय फेजीका इधर ध्यान नहीं था। उसने उसी मशीनका पहिया घुमा दिया। फल यह हुआ कि रूसोकी अँगुलियाँ पिस गयीं, नाखून

फट गये, रक्तका फव्वारा छूट पड़ा। वह चीख उठा। फेजी चौका। उसने झटपट पहियेको उलटा घुमाया। रूसोकी अँगुलियाँ निकली मशीनसे डरा और घबराया फेजी दौड़कर रूसोके पास आया और अत्यन्त कातरतापूर्वक बोला ‘भैया चिल्लाओ मत। मेरे पिता सुन लेंगे तो मुझे बहुत पीटेंगे जो होना था, वह तो हो ही गया।’

रूसो बालक था। उसकी पीड़ा असहा थी; किंतुउसने बलपूर्वक मुख बंद कर लिया। फेजीके कंधेपर उसने मस्तक रख दिया। केवल उसके नेत्रोंसे आँसूकी धारा चलती रही। दोनों बालक वहाँसे पानीके पास गये। बहुत देर धोनेपर रूसोकी अँगुलियोंसे रक्त जाना बंद हुआ। एक कपड़ा फाड़कर फेजीने अँगुलियोंपर मिट्टीकी पट्टी बाँध दी।

‘भैया! तुम्हारे घरके लोग क्या कहेंगे?’ फेजी

अभीतक अत्यन्त चिन्तित था। ‘तुम कोई चिन्ता मत करो।’ रूसोने उसे आश्वासन दिया।

‘तुम्हारे हाथको क्या हुआ है ?’ स्वाभाविक था कि घरके लोग और दूसरे लोग भी हाथमें पट्टी बँधी देखकर रूसोसे पूछते ।

‘मेरी भूलसे चोट लग गयी, हाथ कुचल गया।’ रूसोने सबको गोलमोल उत्तर दिया। पूरे चालीस वर्षतक किसीको इस घटनाका नहीं लगा। -सु0 सिं0

Rousseau was a child at that time. He could not feel at ease without going to his uncle’s place on Sundays during the school holidays. His uncle had a factory. Rousseau was walking with his cousin Fezzi to his uncle’s factory on a Sunday. Suddenly he put his hand on the wheel of a machine. At that time Fezika was not paying attention here. He turned the wheel of the same machine. The result was that Rousseau’s fingers were crushed, the nails
They burst, the fountain of blood was released. He screamed. Fazy ​​Chowk. He immediately turned the wheel in reverse. Rousseau’s fingers came out. Frightened and terrified by the machine, Fazzi ran to Rousseau and said very coyly, ‘Brother, don’t shout. If my father listens, he will beat me a lot. Whatever had to happen, it has already happened.’
Rousseau was a child. His suffering was unbearable; But he closed his mouth forcefully. He put his head on Fazzi’s shoulder. Only tears kept flowing from his eyes. Both the boys went to the water from there. Rousseau’s fingers stopped bleeding after washing them for a long time. Tearing a cloth, Fejie tied a clay strip on the fingers.
‘Brother! What will the people of your family say?’ Fazy
Still very worried. ‘Don’t you worry.’ Rousseau assured him.
‘What happened to your hand?’ It was natural that the people of the house and other people would also ask Rousseau after seeing the bandage on his hand.
‘I got hurt by mistake, my hand got crushed.’ Rousseau gave a roundabout answer to everyone. No one was aware of this incident for the whole forty years. – Su 0 Sin 0
