Mom's magic

Maa,maa...
Suman came shouting and then throwing her bag on the sofa she lied down on the big sofa tired and exhausted of whole day studies, dance practice,and part time tution job.

Aa ke bas gir hi jaana hai, her mother said griningly.

Suman in reply giving expression of not having strength of arguing with her and said bhook lagi hai , is dinner ready?

Yes, but at least wait for Aman to come, we 'll all have dinner together .

Aman???
Where the hell is he?

He is out for group studies.

Group studies?really??
He is not going to come before 11.

Oh!maa, u are to innocent.Aapka beta na bada ho gaya hai.
And you  think he has gone for  group studies.You still don't know your son , maa.

Ok, go get fresh first, we both will have dinner.

No, I am just washing my hands I am very hungry.she said annoyingly.

In her bedroom.

It was midnight inspite of tiredness, she was unable to sleep, thoughts were running inside her mind.she was just turning from one side to the other.

Suddenly there was a knock on her door.

Yes?

Suman, beta I'm here.
Ha , maa door is open come in.

See the " generation change" parents have to take permission before coming in to their own  child's room. Her mother said little tauntingly.

It is privacy. She replied.

What privacy, parents are not part of your personal life, you need privacy from your parents also.
Don't you know I'm not like other mummies. She said.

Yaa, I know you are not like other mummies at all, I was 2 times more lucky than normal children. You know why my mom came from Saturn. And others got from mars that's why.

Hearing this reply from her, she was giving little confused expression.

I don't understand you..

Before her mother could say anything further she said

No need to understand me.at 1am of night. Tell me why are you here ? Don't you want to sleep?

I was sleeping only...

Then?what??
I just thought to see you.

Oh ,.so.you came to give me your secret love.

Ok, come this side,I want to sleep in your lap .

Some body wasn't happy with my presence ,and..

Suman stared her a little with narrow eyes and pull her to sit on the edge of a bed.

Putting her head in her mother's lap she was lying and her mother was lovingly rubbing her hand on her hands.

Motu, what happened? why are you still awake? Her mother asked her carringly.

I don't know. When will this questions of our livelihood, career, money  , loans this struggle to achieve our dreams every thing will end we'll be living a good , settled life. When we won't be worrying before donating something to the beggar that let me first check how much I have in my pocket.

I am fed up of this life. You know the worst condition of us , that we can't say that I want to run away because for running away also we need money.

Her mother was listening quietly to all her frustrations.

She said very calmly, close your eyes you would be able to sleep  now.

Suman was looking towards her mother's face questioningly .

Don't give me this type of expression , you need good sleep, you first show has only few days left and your exams too.

There was.smile on both's face and complete silence like both were understanding each other's feelings at that moment.

Getting up she pulled her mother to lie beside her and both of them slept hugging each other.
