Since we are locked in our houses and stuck up with online classes, only thing I crave for is you. The excitement of riding in the bus or sometimes by train, buying cold drinks, chocolates, chips and water bottle, having so many stories to tell, planning for fun, biding goodbye to father and teasing him whilst his words that take care of everybody somehow made me emotional and just free from all the worries of studies. While travelling by train, getting up so early just to buy those sandwiches and amul kool whilst saying mother that wake up, it's morning already and then laughing the moment she gets up surprised. It was excitement and love afterall which cannot be hidden. I felt like dancing madly and continuously but mother taught that show some manners outside before even the bags were being packed. And with that even grandparents gave me a big lists of do's and don'ts. How will they understand our situation. The moment we reach the maternal house, there's a gush of joy, happiness and laughter in every bone. Hugging every cousin, touching the feet of elders and saying hello to all the friends being made there along the way. Elders would say you have grown up and I would sluggishly reply I didn't have any other option and everybody would laugh out and I would think why they are laughing, when it's the truth being told. Anyways what I need to care. Cousins would say now let's begin our fun. And I would forget to eat, drink, sleep, even my mother and father and then grandparents would become a lost affair. And then there comes a voice from faraway room, where's your toothbrush and I would be like I forgot it in all this excitement. Afterall I am busy. And then I would take money from maternal grandmother as she knows how careless I am and go to nearby shop running as fast as I could as if I am participating in a marathon and coach is my mother. There I show no tantrums and pick up the one which comes in my hand first and just run back. Then mother is mother, she would say how your toothbrush got changed and then comes the role of maternal grandfather. He protects me from his daughter as he knows her daughter very well and I still struggling between her love and scolding. Watching tv mostly cartoons, movies or comedy serials, playing badminton or cricket, hide and seek, dark room, guessing movies, singing songs, playing on terrace, teasing whilst sometimes beating each other, commanding ladies of the house to prepare our common favourite food and I would just nod because I thought I will get food even after returning from here but not this fun. Every evening, our group would reach the park and have our best time. Then eating dinner would be followed by convincing elders that take us to eat ice gola. Everybody would start ordering their favourite colour and I would firstly say with proud that I will eat two. Trust me, the weight increased drastically in those days. Then sometimes going to the big park and playing every game we couldn't. Meeting small kids there would make us so happy as someone will call me also didi. Clicking crazy pictures and then laughing. Cracking jokes. Then rushing to the water cooler to sip that chilled water and returning all wet. And then while returning, we would eat at our favourite outlet followed by icecream as anyways dessert is a must.
