At a supermarket, I happened to see a girl pleading
With her mother about a particular brand of chocolate bar for buying
Further, she was saying her aunt gave her during
Her visit to their home, the mother said of late you are consuming
Too many peppermints and chocolates, this will start decaying your teeth
Then you may have to be visiting
The dentist often for cleaning
Your teeth, “follow me, I am going
To the billing counter for making
The payment for my purchases” meanwhile she saw a gentleman holding
Two bags with the items he purchased suddenly seeing
The mother and daughter after making
Enquires about them, he took a chocolate bar from his bag and wishing
The young girl “Happy Children’s Day and you are the first girl receiving
the chocolate bar from me” then the girl was looking
at her mother’s face, who said why she was hesitating,
then the girl said she was searching
for this brand of chocolate bar, “Uncle I never expected you would be lifting
the entire stock from the shelf” the mother seemed to be wondering
at the way, her child was handling the situation without letting
her off and the maturity she was displaying. |
