Chapter 06- Crying Baby

At that time a house of Kalamalgama was busy in whole night time. People who walked in front house heard cry of little baby time to time while they turned their head to that direction and brushed it off while walking past that house as being aware about something.

"Did Hadiya send milk?" Migara asked inpatient eyes from Janthu. On his hands baby girl was crying continuously.

"Yes master, it is still on stove to prepare it "Janthu said with concerned expression.

"Hooow…how…how… don't cry my baby. Wait a moment. Haa… you can drink as you want. "Migara try to cuddle baby girl and tried to stop crying. But child still was crying with tearful eyes.

"My little sister see, isn't it wonderful? " Sumana came near to baby Mantha with grasshopper made from coconut leaves. He was moved it front of baby girl and she looked at it amusingly. With that crying baby girl stopped and but looked at the grasshopper tearfully. If anyone saw this could think of pity.

"Didn't you find a nanny yet?" Migara asked while looking at the pitiful child. He was so sad about this girl. She lost her parents one after another. She lost her identity, luxury and everything. Now she became a topic to insult him. He thought that no matter what he will give a better and more peaceful life to his best friend's daughter.

"Yes, master. Still could not find one. Many nannies rejected to work here." Janthu said angrily.

"Why? Are that rumors?" Migara asked with some hurt. Meanwhile Sumana was playing with baby Mantha by moving the toy grasshopper here and there and she smiled continuously while keep drooling from her mouth.

"Yes, master. Master, you treated everyone in the same way and helped many people when they needed it. Even you made houses without taking money sometimes. But now with this incident, everyone started to badmouth us. Some even say they dislike setting foot in front of our house. Previously everyone wanted to praise you, curry favoring you, and greet you as a good man. Now they do not like to work here even though we pay. It is hateful to see this "Janthu said with hate.

"Don't think about it. It is the nature of the world. Everything will change. Even Lord Buddha had to face difficult times. Also had to face many insults, defamation and badmouthing from several parties throughout his lifetime. So what about us? So we must take all with indifferently and patiently. "Migara explained calm manner.

"Anyway master, actually who is the mother of our miss?"Janthu asked curiously. After hearing this Sumana also turned his head in the direction of his father.

"Janthu, you must never ask this question future. I only tell you that mother of  my daughter is really good lady" Migara said with stern voice.

"Okay" Janthu nodded his head.

"However, have you bought a goat?" Migara asked .

"Oh! Yes master. I bought family of three. I already said Hadiya to prepare a place for them. Tomorrow master can give goat milk to baby" Janthu said happily.

"Okay. Go and see if milk is prepared now?"Migara said with agreed notion.

"Yes, master. I am going now."Janthu went inside of kitchen quickly. While looking at the kitchen room for moment Migara asked "Sumana , do you like your sister ?"

"Yes. I really like her. She is beautiful girl" Suman said while playing with baby Mantha. Migara looked at both of them and immersed in deep thought .
