Portrait 05

One year ago, I met her in Chittagong Railway Station. She is Aishah, 22 years old though she looks over 30. Her skin lost its softness as she used to take not less than three customers every night.

She is one of those few sex workers who talked to me in very good way and let me take photos. She believed that I was not a photojournalist and I wouldnt send her photos and stories to the newspaper. I promised her not to do that. And, I kept my promise until she is lost.

I wondered how passionate she was! She told me the story of her first baby's birth and how that baby died. I saw her crying eyes. "I know, you are a good person. Your eyes say that", she said looking at me.

After that day, I went to Railway station but I didnt find her. Still, I am looking for her when I go there. Some says that she went back to her village and other says, "she was bought by someone".......

I dont know where she is now......and I love her 'straight forward' behavior.
