A long tiring tedious first day at work and with a puppy face I get back home.
The only person who does realize this is her. Se got food for me... Asked me how my day was and heard me jabber throughout telling her how this corporate world is … backbiting… sweet gestures and A-Z of it all!
She never got tired. Smiled and said…”its okay …its just the beginning …you’ll get used to it…”
Next morning….woke up early… made quick breakfast… still confused whether I should take “ladyfinger or bitter gourd” … came to me and asked... “What is it that you want to eat for lunch?”
I said…: Ladyfinger... (She knows it’s my besteset ever freaky food)
She smiled and went away doing the usual chores.
Gleefully I leave for work…
Evening … “my nose-pin was missing”
Everybody at home shared evening pleasantries… but that was her again this time.. saying where is your nose-pin…and I wasn’t an ounce amused…
That woman is my mother…!
So much I love her despite blown out fights and screams…!
I love you ma!
