This has happened so many times to me during middle school because I would always forget my keys in my locker at school and mom would usually get caught in traffic and be a few minutes late coming home from work. I distinctly remember how my brother and I would fight for the spot on the stairs that was in the shade. I usually let him have it since he was the younger one. 😛
It's so interesting how you can take such small real-life instances and weave them into the story to make it a noteworthy point.
Nivi a story ceases to be a story for me when I am able to connect with a random incident like that, Mainstream Hindi cinema doesnt offer that at all, I remember in Lunch Box there were many such occasions though I am not from Mumbai... I would read letters from India in my early years here... EXACTLY like Nimrat did, sitting in the dining table chair ONE LEG UP WITH CHAI, wearing a salwar kameez feeling my toe nails as I read it
Nimrat could have been me, I could have been her😳 I will never forget lunch box
THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS
