Hello Diary,
Guess what? Went to temple for the first time in my life with my mum and dad cos mum finally decided that I was old enough not to create a racket inside. And boy, was I excited or what? I had assumed that this temple must be a fun place, thats why Anjali bua insisted on visiting it atleast 6 days a week. But it turned out to be so boring!! So to distract me dad took me over to a man selling pigeons and dad brought the whole lot for me! Can you believe it? He is such a sweetheart! He doesn't get a driver to drive his SUV so that he can provide me with every possible thing! Oh, I do love him loads!
We waited until mum joined us and then I quickly closed my eyes and wished fervently to God to please bless Mum with a little dress sense and then all the pigeons were set free by mum and dad while I clapped my little pudgy hands. But the problem with Mum and Dad is that they don't think these things properly. Cos a couple of people standing around got, ahem, a little message in the eye. They looked as embarrassed as I felt.

Went shopping with Dad today. And i'm so happy to report that Dad's got good taste. He certainly bought me some groovy gear. And thinking about it, the best thing about going shopping is that you don't seem to need any money to do it. Dad just kept flashing this little piece of plastic around and presto, you get everything! I don't know why more people don't do it.
And Thank God Manorma Maami didn't go to shopping that day cos a policeman was roaming the mall and if he saw what sort of clothes maami was shopping, i'm afraid he would've sent her down for crimes against fashion.

Some weird relative of Manorma Maami's is over to stay at our place with the weirdest name 'Nandkisor'! But he prefers to be called NK. I highly suspect this is the Nandkisor my mum's buaji has been looking for all her life. But poor guy seems scared to death everytime he meets buaji and I can't bring myself to blame him although i've got a feeling that buaji has a huge crush on him and gets all gooey-eyed seeing him.
And Weird guy- started having jetlag after 2 weeks of staying at our house. I mean, what the?!
And his hindi? Dad looks like he's done a PhD in hindi in front of him though he still can't read that automobile book mum got for him. Although mum does sometimes forcibly read it to him as his bedtime story.
And NK Uncle has problems speaking Hindi so he says the stupidest things and he has a habit of constantly scratching the back of his head whenever he's confused which is quite often. Seriously sometimes, he makes Manorma Maami look like a brain surgeon! And thats saying something!

Guess What? Guess what? Dad took me to his office today!! And the even better thing was Mum dressed me just like him!! I think all those free pigeons actually delivered my prayer to God! She especially went a day before to shop and brought me a three-piece suit with a baby blue shirt inside my waist coat! She can be soo sweet sometimes! And I even gave her a slobbery kiss on her cheek in my happiness.
This was the first time I was going to someplace important. I spent ages getting ready. And I took a good couple of hours deciding how to do my hair. In the end, I decided that I should leave them the way they were cos I believe that messy and unkept hair give me a very rugged look! And I say so myself, I looked pretty damn hot!
Omg!! Dad's office is so cool! And I especially liked his glass cabin overlooking the whole office. I think I might become a business tycoon just to have his office!
And I got mollycoddled by all these cute young girls working there- they seemed to dote on me completely, but hey, they're only human, I suppose.
But then, Dad got jealous of all the attention I was receiving and yelled 'What the' at all the girls and told them he doesn't pay them to sit around and play with babies and all of them scurried away.
***
And whew! Finally after much efforts I managed to find some information about the Big Bad Evil Shyamo. Overheard Mum and Dad talking about it by hiding behind dad's recliner. And what I heard made my blood freeze! From what I gathered from their conversation was that Evil Shyamo kidnapped dad before I was even born which meant dad was still very young! And somehow my mum had managed to save him. I must say, my respect for mum increased ten fold hearing this!
But I know what you must be thinking that gone are the days when the damsel was in distress and a knight in shining armour saved her. Instead my ruggedly handsome dad was in distress and my mum in glittering pom-pom clothes saved him! Things have taken quite a turn in the 21st century, huh?

How was it? How was it?? Lemme know!!
