Lolly and chubby

After few days my parents took me to the city, unlike village here I saw huge buildings , parks, and a bridge on way to city. I was astonished by the beauty of city. But it was nothing compared to my village. Car stopped in front of the door of a villa. I was stunned and could not say anything, was it really going to be my home!?. I was surprised but then when I remembered at what cost my eyebrows squinted.

Mom opened gate for me to take me out but I was determined to not to let her touch me.

I opened other side gate and get off the car. Surprisingly mom was not angry. She smiled and asked me to enter into house . A butler opened door and a young and pretty girl was standing with aarti plate in her hands. She performed aarti and fed me piece of sweets. I could not remember her, in my past memories.

Mom and dad both asked me to rest and escorted me to my room. It was splendid, filled with books and novels a book shelf wall was prepared . Dolls and a round shaped bed in my favorite sky dark blue colour." Do they still know my favorites ? Oh! why not they must have pressurised their brains to remember about me". I was wondering what happened back then, why? they left me! a three years old child. Was I a burden on them back then!?. Questions were lacking to satisfy my anger towards them. I could not believe I was asking myself such questions regarding my parents!.

I did not show much interest in talking and in their preparations. I told them to leave me as I was tired from thinking those memories back again and again. I took shower and wore my teddy bear print pajamas with a loose top of brown colour and slept. I did not even think about having dinner, my cookies were enough for me.

Mom came in my room and patted on my head silently dad as well entered in my room. They were quite good at walking like theives I hated their presence but wanted to know why were they into my room.

"What do you think will she ever forgive us for leaving her behind?" A question by my father to my mom, suddenly made me realize this is exactly what I have been struggling for , nine years! how they could live without me ! for those nine years?.

Mom didn't answer but made dad shush. She was scared of disturbing me. Mixed feelings were running in my brain where I could only say one thing to me "wait time gives answer to all problems ". I was more matured than girls in my age. My grandma was proud of my matured behavior.

Mom gently kissed my forehead and left me and I was stunned. I did not move until mom and dad went littil far. I rubbed my head crazily like i was going to peel off my skin. After few hours i sat silently and cried . And the miserable thing was i had no tears in my eyes but they were hurting and became red. Maybe if someone who would have seen me in that condition thought I was drugged or alcoholic. I used to cry silently so my grandma would not worry about me. Throughout those painful years she was the only cause of me to smile. I truly missed her that night.

Next morning when I woke up, I opened curtains and saw beautiful view of city and again missed mountain and my village, my grandma's morning smile.

A girl suddenly entered into my room and screamed my name " Pahi!". I turned back and saw a pretty girl tall and beautiful but a little fatty than me with fierced anger. I could not recognize her but I still asked her who was she and her reply was quite violent . She grabbed me in her arms and asked me " don't you remember me i..i..I am your lolly and chubby, your friend Diti".

My lips spread against my will and I realized ,"Diti my best friend". I flipped from her arms and hugged her. "Oh! my Lolly and chubby ", I was so happy to see her , finally a reason to be happy to live. Lolly used to be a chubby girl , she was being neglected from other children's in kindergarten because of her chubby but heavenly beautiful face.

Diti was named because of her beauty. I was another neglected girl but reason was my matured behavior and intelligence. But my silly gentel girl loved me because of my cold nature.

We were no longer those "chuddy buddy" friends But still kids. Diti was about to burst into anger and tears but she hold back as I hugged her. "Hey I still hate crying girls " the word was enough to make her silent. She sat next to me and asked " will you live here or leave again, please I missed you so much throughout these years. Although I have some friends now but I feel lost among them. Like I was with you ,I don't feel same with anyone. If you ever going to leave me I will kill you".

Her words flooded my mind with our memories. I took her hand in my hands and wrote with touch" never". She and i talked little longer and while talking I saw someone trying to hide behind the door. Mom! it was mom who was hiding behind but why?. I acted as if I did not noticed her but after an hour she was still standing behind the door but why? . I did not ignored this time and came out of my room to ask her why was she standing there, when I saw not mom but dad was also there holding something in his hand.

I asked them "Mom why are you standing here and dad you too?!".

I saw mom was holding a bowl of fruits in her hands and dad was holding a bag. I asked them to come in. Diti greeted them and left.
