Story Time !
A woman with a sick
child, had to catch a local bus to reach hospital. On the way to the bus
stop she has to cross this rail track every time. With the bus visibly
reaching the stop.. and the gates to be closed
for the train to pass on.. The woman carrying the child dares to cross
the rail gates to not to miss the bus. She tips and falls over the
tracks!! seeing the avenging train approaching at a distance and no one
to rescue them, that woman with a bruised knee
and elbows, manages to stand on her feet, pulls the crying fallen child
up and falls back again to the sides... and missed the inevitable!
The woman in the
scene is.. Sulochana, my Mother and the child is, yours truly
Reddigaarulu, and the place – Jayanagar Rail gate, Mysore. I had just
been given a second chance to Live!!
it was my 10th
summer vacation, and my Mother going after a astrologer's advice, that
her dear son would become a great kalakaar one day, hands me a drawing
book and bundles of colors... and I.. u see.. who
had been inspired by the scenes of the famous Titanic movie.. draws the
anatomy of gals to near perfection!! :) my Amma who went through my
drawing book once.. Instantly took a avatar of Badrakaali looks and
ensured my bumps are beaten to a swollen red using
my Appa's leather beltu.. :(. I get punished from the same hands that
saved me, my life..
She gets to know
everything about me instantly.. their was this day when i reached home
feeling rejected and dejected.. Amma comes to me with a coffee and says
“Should I speak to the Girl..?” I was in tears
the very next moment and fell for her rescue..
when she is proud of Reddigaru being good. Goes to her son, preps up his shirt collar and tells him baagunra nana..
And with a new Bangaaru Gajulu for this Akshayathadige.. i'm sure to make an impression on her yet again :)
So if you people have not wished your loved one Yet!! :P
Happy Mothers Day!! :)
