Based on a True Story (1)




***This is the first in a series of posts based on real life incidents that I intent to publish. Not sure if there will be any more though....I have always been better at fiction..or so I think :P***

Me: Mom,please khana khilao na..Im feeling bored to eat.

Mom: Shut up and eat. Itni badi ho gayi hai aur khana maine khilaneka?

Me: Please mom.

Mom:Shanu, eat ur khana or you are grounded.

Caw, caw caw (that isn’t me..its a crow at the window sill)

Mom: Aare beta, tu jaldi aa gaya aaj. Tere liye toh maine abhi tak roti bhi nahi banayi!

Me: Mom, please feed me na...I am feeling bored.

Mom: Shut up Shanu. I have to go feed the crow!!

Me: (Turning green wit envy) Kya faltoogiri hai....You can feed the crow but you cant feed me!

Mom: Thatz it...One more word from you young lady and you are grounded.

Me: Sulking Ohhkkkk. Eww bhindi (lady fingers) ki sabzi...I hate it. Mom please make something else for me na.

Mom: Thats it. Off to your room with your plate.

Me: Hmmpppttt!!

After sulking in my room for half an hour..I decide to take revenge. The crow will pay for depriving me of my mother’s love.

Me:Splashing the crow with water Fly away you stupid bird.

Crow: Caw caw caw Your mom loves me more than you!

Me: Shut up you stupid bird. My mom doesn’t love you!

Crow: Of course she does. You wanna bet?

Me: Of course

Crow: I heard you telling your mom you don’t like the vegetable she has made. Did she make a new one for you?

Me: Of course not. She doesn’t have the time for making a new sabzi.

Crow: Thats what you think! Watch and learn from the expert.

Mom enters with roti and sabzi for the crow.

Mom: Take beta..eat.

Crow: Caw caw caw caw (Translation : No I wont)

Mom:Kya hua, you don’t like the sabzi?

Crow: Caw (Translation : No)

Mom: Should I make something else for you? Allo ki sabzi khayega?

Crow: Caw caw (Translation : Yes please)

Mom: Okie..Ill make some for you!

Me: Mom!!

Crow: Cee cee cee (Translation : Hee hee hee)

And there it was official..My mom loves the crow more than she loves me.
