Mature Teenager ! - Part -2 (Conclusion)

And the day began; he got freshened up, took shower, and even washed his own cloths. Now he was heading towards common prayer hall where all students including their dean of the hostel worship the almighty god. Some grooming works of hostel garden and landscapes were to be done by students as a part of their grooming and disciplinary growth. Today he did that too. Now the time was of their breakfast. So he reached at common place for having food. Whether it is breakfast, dinner or lunch, all 3 food feasts were performed here only. Then going to school and coming back at hostel. Do your dinner, evening prayer and homework and then you sleep such was his daily routine.

And from waking up at 10AM to self awakening at 4.00AM sharp, from throwing his cloths on bathtub to washing it on his own, avoiding worship to mugging up whole hanuman chalisa (hindu god hanuman's 40 lines worship peom) he made it all. His life has started transforming. The turning point was when puberty hit him.

He experienced drastic change in self confidence and also physique due to his perfect and balanced schedule of hostel life. He started interacting with other fellow students, developed friendships, and even hardships. He even made some senior friends of hostel, hanged out with them, got to know bad secrets of hostel life too.

He himself also committed some serious mistakes which could not be forgiven if known by faculties or especially dean of the hostel. Even if they knew would not have believed it. The reason being he was very good at studies. You know when you are good at studies; some mistakes are implied to be forgiven even if they are not. So was his case also.

But there is always something or at least one thing people always lack in their personality. Be it courage, wisdom, beauty or PATIENCE. Urvil always lacked patience. Be it school academics, parental meeting, early waking up, he always compete with fellow students. And when failed, sometimes he does, he lose patience and lose cool. But he made thorough a year and passed with glorious scores. Now it was a vacation time after a day or two. Every student was allowed one telephone call a day to their parents for informing them to take their child home. We are talking about 2002, when telephones still ruled. So he made his call when his turn arrived and informed his dad the details of his whereabouts and how can he come home. And his dad told to come the next day.

The next day nobody from his home showed up. And yes, he lost his patience and made second call to home, this time it was picked by his mom, who was way too emotional about Urvil. She listened to his son carefully and without giving a second thought, she made her way to hostel right away. She reached there, packed his luggage, signed the formalities, and took her son to home in an auto rickshaw.

After a while, the car came at doors of hostel, it was of Urvil's dad. He came with a bouquet in his hand for his son to give perfect moments of farewell from hostel. Urvil's sister was with him too. She was having gift wraps in her hands to surprise his beloved brother. They both made their way to Urvil's room in hostel, where they got to know about departure of the boy. And they were saddened. They quickly drove back to the route to home thinking they might catch both of the mother and son in midway. But they kept driving and searching until their home arrived.

And there he was lying comfortably in his bed after such a long separation. Urvil's Dad came inside, saw his son and before he could speak, Urvil got up and complained why he didn't come and all. The dad laughed. They could have been angry but didn't and just showed urvil the gifts and bouquet. By seeing it all, Urvil got a lesson of PATIENCE with his dad's example for lifetime. Poor Urvil!

After this Incident I never got news about Urvil, all I got to hear about Urvil through these years is his Supreme Patience admired by his whole family. After that incident he was a still a teenager, but a matured one!

Have this kind of incidents happened to us in past? Most of us would say yes. We lose patience when are at the end of achieving something/someone. We lose patience and sometimes with losing it, we also lose opportunities, some extra happiness and lot of smiles.
