MOTHER O MINE

So my dearest mother is out of town and i am delighted because hey no mom reads more freedom no one to ask me where i'm off too and when i'l be back ( not that there are any restrictions but still no permission needed). i wait for the time when my parents go out of town so i can do as my heart desires. but this time when mom left she gave me responsibilities. see i can take care of myself perfectly fine but taking care of the household, hmmmmm , now thats BIG. oh, if your wondering where my grandmom is , well she is off staying with my uncle for some days so that sucks. BIG TIME.

Anyway, mom left on a saturday, and that night we had a family dinner so no trouble.

And sunday, well just passed by.

Monday was okay too, i woke up at 6am made lunch for my bro and packed it and then once he left for college i slept again. woke up at 9 again and when for spanish. so yeah, monday was easy.

But tuesday, that was another thing altogether. I slept late on monday night, and by late i mean like 3 ish. and my alarm, well not that i blame it because i set it for 7am, which made me late to make lunch. so i started rushing. and i guess it was just my bad day because thats the day that i get a headache and stomachache..:(
so, i start making lunch. fortunately ( or thats what i thought then) my maid came early and i was just halfway through my lunch making. so she completed the task for me and i could go rest( or so i thought).

Bro left. and maid got to work  on the rest of the house. suddenly she comes to me and she says
"Aap soo re kya?" ( are you sleeping?)

i said "haan"( yes)

now a normal person would go away, but not my maid she started off

"daddy ko kal ki bhendi bahot pasand aayi. poora dabba khaali hogaya."( daddy liked y'days' ladyfinger curry a lot, he cleaned the enitre lunch box)

my sleepy reply "hmmmm"

my maid being a little on the chatty side went on about the lunch for sometime and i really have no clue what she was saying because all my replies were "hmmmm" and "haaaan".. and then she finally left at some point.And i thought now i can sleep ... PHEW! i put a pillow over my head for my headache and tried sleeping again.

But after what seemed by 5 mins to me( it might have been more), my maid is back and again she says

"AAP SOO RE KYA?"

"HAAN"

Again she doesn't just go away, instead

"YE ROTI KHARAAB HO GAYI HAI, OOB AAGAYI HAI, PHEK DU??" (this roti is spoilt, got fungus on it, should i throw it?)

i murmured a yes, now that should have been enough for her but obviously it wasn't because she went on

"AAP EK BAAR HAATH LAGAA KE DEKHO, POORI KHARAAB HOGAYI HAI" (just touch it once its all spoilt)

"PHEK DO" (throw it)

"POORI OOB AAGAYI HAI, AAP DEKHE LO" (its got fungus, u see)

i turned around looked at it and said "HAAN, KHARAAB HOGAYI, PHEK DO" (yes its spoilt, throw it)

Finally satisfied with my answer she left, and i sighed in relief but it was again a early reaction, because alas she was back, this time again she started with "AAP SOO RE KYA??"

GAWD i swear i hate those words, i mean whats the point of asking me if i'm sleeping if you don't plan to go away when i say yes???

Anyway, this time around it was asking about when my grandmom will return.thats when i decided there was only one thing to do, and that exactly what i did.

I woke up, got dressed and had my breakfast and then waited for her next questions to come. but see my fate, once i woke up she stopped all her questions.:(

So mom, i'm just gonna say hats off to you. to be able to bear this everyday is something i can't do. i can take care of myself bu taking care of other people everyday isn't something i'm ready to just yet. I'm not saying i'm not responsible because i did take care of the house in her absence. but it was a pain. and i love my mommy for doing that for us everyday. you just don't understand how hard it is until you do it urself.. hehe

SO IN MY CASE. IT'S A LESSON LEARNT AND EXPERIENCE GAINED...

Aannnnnddddd  i'm done here, so GOOD BYE.
