" How could this be ? " This may be your reaction after you start to read my work. If I got mad !!! Quite possibly.But I just want to say give a chance 😳..
Let me start :
Hoshiarpur one of the main districts in Punjab. But when it comes to development
this city is far behind in the race...especially rural areas deprived from basic needs to bigger things like education..transportation require much attention.What makes this area special ? And the blessings almighty bestowed with are the Mango Farms Hoshiarpur's Rural Area famous for
Ranipur a similar village like any other one in rural Hoshiarpur. People living very ordinary lives as they are used in hot and humid summers.Rural life usually start at 4 to 4:30.Natives try to finish off their outdoor works as possible as before daybreak ...before sun..This is the only way to cope up with the heat wave.
After final exams school and collages had been closed for around two n half months Forcibly mothers were keeping kids inside homes during day time due to fear of sun stroke.Aged people liked to take long noon naps.Hardly any animal in streets and motor vehicles on roads.Whole area seemed devastated.
Heatwave had melted the roads what was the need to go out...when the sun was at peak. Unable to move barefoot he was trying to drag him on road...Coz his shabby sleepers had been denied to take him forward. One broken in his hand other about to be broken in his foot.
He wanted to scream aloud in pain .As he came closer to a tree his teary eyes fill with joy.Smile came to his perfect M shaped lips. " H h-h-h-haye r-r-raab ji bahut bahut sukhar (thankful) hai aa-a-apkaa..."...He set under its shade...Rubbing his almost blistery soles.
This guy was Nandu a village guy.Who works in local grocery shop ran by ShahJi or Lala Karam Chand famously known as ShahJi.His son who was at vacations he was getting obstinate...Wanted to go out for play in Mango Farms..But to pacify him ShahJi gave him on option to bring fresh mangoes for him. His son was much fond of Mangoes.
Immediately he asked Nandu who was busy in arranging new stock of grocery in shop."P-p-per..Shah Ji..b-bahut garmi hai...s-shaam ko l-l-laa dunga..M-m-meri chappal tuttne w-waali hai...A-aa-apko kaha th-tha na nai de-deney ko...aap laaye nahi.."
" Aare chup kar teri chappal jaayda jaroori hai...ya mere betay ki sehat hai...I forget to bring slippers of your size...Your feet are too big...Is size k kahan lete hai log...Isliye bhul gaya laana" He burst.
Most of village people buy slippers for everyday need from this shop but ShahJi never care about this poor guy Nandu..Who was serving at very low wages just requested him to bring slippers of his size from a month..But ShahJi always ignored.
Now Nandu was in big trouble how to reach the farm.It was in trouble otherwise Shahji gonna cut his wages.
" K-a-a kya karu aab..? " He thought and pulled his hair in irritation as not getting any solution.
So how was the prologue ..What a boring start ...Really ? Tell me...
