Just like any other morning, the Aangan was bustling with activity, chathuri was pumping water to wash clothes, babho was praying to her tulsi plant and meena was unwillingly spreading chillies for drying, muttering under her breadth that babho has given her the nastiest job,while other beendhnis had it easy, vikram was busy exercising, mohit playing with pari, Emily was serving tea to babasa who was reading a paper.
Sandhya, all dressed, ready for work, came to the Aangan followed by her loving husband suraj ji and their precious 5 yr old son.
Lachman ran to her and was waiting to hand over her shoes which he had so meticulously spit shined.
Sandhya went to babho,
Babho, iam leaving for work, bless me , she said with a confused, guilty look on her face. She knew babho had overheard their conversation in the GG room,
Sandhya beendhni, take him with u, ordered Babho.
Babho, I can't,...not today,...,
Santosh... trailed babasa, but to no effect,
Babho, lips held tight continued to glower and stare at sandhy with a dissatisfied look on her face.
Sandhya went to her son, and sat on her knees to be on the same eye level as her 5 year old son, and looked at her son,.. the eyes that looked back into hers were exactly like that of her Suraj Jis, the same soft, melting, intelligent eyes that could pierce your heart and look into your soul, and see what's buried there.
he looked like a miniature version of her sooraj ji, he even had the same lush hair with those few strands that defied order and her brushing and lay on the forehead.
Her face immediately softened looking at her son. She took both his hands in hers, and started gently,
Beta, mommy has lots of work today, a very, very busy day ahead, DSP sir will be there, I cannot take anyone with me, please,.. Tomorrow, I swear, I will do it , but not today, please understand,..
She said pleadingly, asking for some understanding,
He pulled one of his hands out of his mommys and tugged at his papa's Kurta.
Suraj too sat on his knees to be at his sons eye level and held the hand that tugged at his Kurta.
Papa, mommy has too much work today?
DSP sir is coming?
He asked his papa,
suraj ji hesitantly nodded his head "yes".
He stood there for a minute biting his lower lip, then a strange look came into his eyes,
As if struck by a lightning bolt, he shrugged off his parents hands, abruptly turned around and ran into the kitchen, brought his lunch bag as well as his papa's and came running to his mama and papa.
His eyes twinkling as if he has found the missing piece to his puzzle, and has found the way to solve the Rubix cube, he looked at his mom and then at his dad,
Papa, why don't you come with me to school, to kindergarten today?!! You can spend the whole day with me today, mommy will take you tomorrow,
OK?
Is that a deal?!!
Suraj with pride and joy gave his son a tight hug, held his hand and went traipsing to school with his son.
Sandhya with a look of gratitude and love waved to her very own suraj ji, and her precious son. She knew she could always depend on her suraj ji and their lovely son.
She took ashirwad from a satisfied babho and happily went off to work!
The END.
