Priya came out of the college premises and walked towards the parking lot as she done with her classes. She kept her things inside the car n about to seated but stopped as Her eyes caught an Adorable bubbly girl who was sitting with pouted lips in waiting area.
She was wearing pink floral frock n matching shoes. Her hair tied up in 2 small ponytails which made her look more cuter.
Just a glimpse of that little girl brings a beautiful smile on priya's face n she stood there staring at her. She felt like wants to hold that little munchkin in her arms atleast for once. She herself finds it strange but fails to analyse y she was feeling in that way. It's true She is fond of kids but the connection she was feeling with this girl was different.
She tries to divert her mind but ended up walking towards waiting area.
Hi, Priya said to gain little girl's attention n that girl looked towards Priya n replied hi again.
Would you mind me sitting here? She asked smilingly n waited for little girl's reply.
Little girl didn't say anything but moves to other side making place for Priya to sit n downcasted her face.
Saying thank you. She sat beside that girl n strikes the conversation.
Is someone Angry? Priya asked to which the little girl looks up.
Haa.. I am angry on pappa. Saying so she again downcasted her face.
Oh.. y what Papa did? Priya asked wanting to know more about little girl.
What he did?? See... i am waiting for him since school left but he hasn't come yet. She reasoned with cute pout.
Oh.. that's so bad.. Priya said in Same tone as little girl.
Yeah.. I know... Little girl said n looks at the entrance.
It's okay baby.. Papa might have stucked in traffic or some work. I will give you company till ur papa comes happy? She tried to chear little girl mood.
Thank you.. saying this she gave her cute smile to Priya.
Friends? Priya asked forwarding her hand for hand shake but pulls back before little girl hold it.
What happened? Little girl asks looking at Priya.
Hmm... I don't know ur name only na, to become frnds. She asked raising her brows making child face to which little girl giggled.
Her smile made Priya remember someone but she composed n smiled back.
My name is peehu. little girl introduced herself as she tangled priya's hand with her tiny one.
Wow such a beautiful name.. just like you. Priya kissed on peehu's cheek.
Ur turn. Asked peehu shaking their tangled palms indicating her to introduce herself.

Accha.. But u haven't come to our classroom. Peehu asked tapping her fingers on cheeks.
Becoz... I teach for clge students. Over there. she pointed to the clge which was located far from the nurcery class.
Same time the car honked at the entrance.
Heyyy.. papaa has come. peehu squeeled in happiness n stood up. Priya too stood up along with her.
Car stopped at the parking place and a man wearing black suit n shades on, got down from the car and walked towards waiting area.
Peehu was jumping up and down clapping her hands which makes Priya smiled more n she shifted her gaze towards the man n her smile disappeared. She squeezed her eyes n again looked in the same way as the physical appearance of that man looks very familiar to her. Man's face was not that clear to her vision as he was walking still far from them.
With lots n lots of love and hugs
Ur prathika
