She... A kind of short story.

She woke up to realise how badly she was hurt yet managed to smile. Smile to the world outside and to shut her inside off. She wasn't a grown up yet. She still kept the child in her merry and alive. Childlike, childish, a child- still. She knew numbers can't define her life. Numbers can only keep a count of years, but not of the memories she had for all her life. She cherished her life, she was an oasis of happiness, people who stood away could see a ring of aura around her. She never gave out her secrets to the people whom she kept close, rarely, that would ever happen. She knew there's no one who could understand and yet stay with her for any longer. She no longer believed in fairy tales. Deep within her was a river of uncertainty. Not so composed, calm, strong as she seems outside. She knew she's fragile, she knew she had to build a wall to survive. She lives even today under a blanket of moon lit sunshine. She is a moon with a Sun kissed smile. A smile that charms. A smile that hides, a smile that never give a hint of shades and shadows beneath it's skin.

My three Little Sweet Friends!

My three Little Sweet Friends!
.
I want to tell you all a story, story of how these three cute kids befriended me!
.
It was one sunny afternoon a couple of weeks ago, when I was on a break from books and out with my Camera for a session of birding.
.
These kids saw me with my cam and were fascinated with it for sure! Eldest of all Meghana called me and said, "Akka akka, namdu photo thegiri!! ☺" ( Akka = elder sister, click our photo as well...).
.
I was more than happy to do so and  this was such a sweet request none can deny! Isn't it?
.
Well, Meghana stopped her younger brother Chethan and Younger Sister Chethana to pose for me with her cycle!. .
I asked them to show all their teeth and only then I'll click their pic ��. I showed them their beautiful Pic on my camera display. They felt delighted.
The rest is all in the pic!!! .
Wait!!! This doesn't end the story here!!
.
After the photo session My appa called them and gave them a few papaya fruits which we grow in our small house garden.
.
And guess what?
They came back to my home after sometime with their toys and called me out, "Akka akka, aataDaaNa barthira?" �� (Akka = elder Sister, will you play with us?) I was over joyed with their cuteness... But my books were waiting and I couldn't play with them.
.
They pass by my home everyday, and greet me, "hi akka" with a cute innocent smile everytime they see me sitting outside in the sit out. I feel happy and blessed.
.
Today morning Meghana and Chethana Waved their hands from a far distance and said, " Hi, akka!" ☺
