Chapter-12

I held gayu by her hands and started to show her the almost extinct museum.

“Hey Maru… this place is full of stuffed animals, old specimens of insects and birds”

“You know…you may think why I brought you here but… this place has a lot of my memories which I want to share with you”

“That’s really sweet… I know you won’t disappoint me”

“Look at that fossil love….can you see it?”

“Yes it is a bat’s specimen”

“You know since my childhood, I had always been a die-hard DC fan”

“Dc comics? Batman superman and stuff?”

“Yeah! Have you read comics or watched cartoons?”

“Hell yeah… I love teen titans….. especially Raven! OMG she is my favourite”

“Ha ha she is devil’s daughter…..it’s obvious! Devil likes devil cartoons hihi”

“Shut up Mafia! You and your silly mouth”

“ha ha fine…..When I was seven,  my dad used to leave me here and go to the library which is very closeby”

“Oh… nice”

“I used to bring a rough note for sketching insects here…once I planned to design a batman dress myself so to get batman silhouette for the logo image, I chose this bat and designed it”

“Hihi crazy boy..”

“And yeah I got scolded by my dad for it!”

“What.? But why?”

“For the batman dress, I needed a big black dress so… I took my dad’s black shirt and painted the logo on it"

“Ha ha! No wonder…. And you expected your dad to appreciate you for that?”

“If you visit people near my home, they will tell you how crazy I was in my childhood”

“How… so you were kinda famous in childhood itself huh?”

“There are lot of incidents… I will tell you one but you shouldn’t laugh okay?”

“Ok I will lock my mouth… here is the key”

“Good… so when I was little, I used to put my dad’s big shirt and my moms shawl….as it would suit me well in my superhero escapades”

“Maru..can I giggle at least? I know it’s very difficult to control my laughing”

“Ok you can..but only a little….So during that time, I used to put my hero mask and that dress to protect my city”

As I was speaking, she laughed out loud so I pinched her to stop. The old man who was responsible for the museum came and shouted at us.

“I told you not to laugh silly… your mouth is very big to be locked it seems! What a powerful mouth”

“Shut up stupid! Let’s get out before the old man can chase us”

“Sounds like a plan!”

“So where are we going?”

“To the library!”

“Shit mafia! You are boring…what about an icecream shop?”
