Sweet Granni.

When I recollect my child  hood  days I spontaneously reach there. It seems the most pleasant  days of my early child hood.

One old couple lived with their son and daughter in love near our house.
The old man was retired school teacher,. In the evening he teaches small children and when his teaching was ever, the old lady narrates stories.


This news spread in the locality. We children who were living in the locality decided to go there to listen stories.

We finish our lesson and get ready to go their. We know  it very well that before finishing our duty studies we won't get permission  to go any where. So all the children of the locality suddenly became very very sincere in their studies.

After our studies we run there and gathered around the grand,ma, She was a wonderful old lady. sweet spoken human being. She always covers herself with a woolen narrator the story. For months together  we listen  different stories from her. There is a inch smile in her face while narrating the stories. The story of the Kings Owens faeries and warriors and many love stories we have listened hours together . Some times when she forgets anything grand pa adds and stories goes on.


One day when we were just entering  inside the house a young child who was a regular student of grand pa seating on the bharanda gravely shouted " to day you cannot listen story, grand ma is sick"..

We seems seniors threw a careless look upon  the child and entered inside the house. He was true.The  whole house was silent grand ma was lying on the bed and grand pa was siting near the bed.

We entered the house and again returned back. We stood near the light post. We were really disappointed. We could not decide what we will do? The next day again we ran.To grand pa's house. rand ma was lying on the bed  and a week helpless grand pa was silently seating near her.

We came outside. One of my friend told that a very good doctor is looking after grand ma.The doctor can cure  a person only in four days time. There was a little hope rise in us. We counted only two days we can listen stories.

After two days again we approached to her house but still grand ma is laying. We returned back to our house.We are feeling helpless but what can we do?.

After two days when we were returning from school we saw people were gathered out side grand ma's house and some one told us grand ma is no more. We could not believe it. All our dreams were shattered we ran to the house and grand ma was lying peacefully.

We were full of tears. Within the crowed some one shouted what these children are doing here?Some elders just told us to leave the place for others. We left the place and from a distance we just looking at the house where the most loving grand ma lives and preparing ourselves  to tolerate the shock. Tears flow from eyes we know  no one will allow us to go near grand ma  but no one can ever remove her from our heart.
