Hey peepzzz... How are you all?
I draw that greeting... Well, I couldn't able to draw the Mother nicely but I loved the baby
Happy MOTHER's day

"Maa, I'm sorry for mistreating you. I should have taken good care of you. It's all because of me," I can feel my Mannu's tears on my right knuckle.
I want to wipe away his tears and coo him but I couldn't able to move a single cell of my body. He caressed the tears on my knuckle, I can feel it.
"Now you realized Mannu? I shouldn't have left Maa with you but my family condition was not good or else I wouldn't have done it. I'm ashamed of you both. You didn't take care of Nanna and now Maa. It's..." Nani cut her off.
"Cut the crap Swathi. It sounds like we threw Maa at the old age home. She was with us. We took shifts and took care of her and even Nanna too. But what you did? Excuses..." Suddenly there came a weird sound which I can't figure out followed by ssh.
"This is a hospital but not your home. Please, keep your voice low. I hope you follow it and discuss at your home," a female voice said in a hushed tone.
The clicking sound reduced every single second. I heard a heavy sigh, I'm sure it must be my angry bird, Nani. That lady was true. They can't fight everywhere they wish for. I told them numerous times to maintain their posture dignified but always lose their temper.
"Guys, this is not the time to fight and you know Maa will not approximate it. So, please stop it. Swathi, trust me we took care of her as much as we can. She became old and her body slowly gave up. It's not that she's healthy but came to this condition because of us. We didn't take good care of Nanna. I still regret it but I made sure Maa gets everything she deserves. I can understand you, Bujji(little one) but we can't do anything. She was on her death bed. We must spend time with her but not to fight like this. So, please you both stop it," Mannu explained them patiently.
That's my boy. I'm sure he will take care of them wisely. Being an elder child he knows how to manage them. I bless you all. Take care of yourself and your family and kids my children. I know I'm leaving you all...
I felt Nani caressing my right knuckle with his thumb. I'm sure he will not show his emotions. I want to hold his palm and caress it and ensure him that 'everything will be alright' but I feel numb.
I felt Bujji's touch on my knuckle. She made my palm held Nani's palm. I want to hold it tightly. Please God, give me a little bit of energy to assure my son. He needs me. I felt Mannu caressing the corner of my right eye.
"This tear says that she was hearing us. Let's not break down nor cry. She knew that we will do our best. Right, Maa?" Mannu asked in a cracked tone.
"Look you are crying like a manic but telling us to strong," Bujji giggled slightly. I felt the tear on my left knuckle.
"Don't I have competition?" He joked but his voice was crack.
"See Maa, these both are fighting like toddlers even their grandchildren are ready to get married," Nani said with a chuckle.
He sounds normal but only I know how broken he was from inside because of his rude behavior in last month. When you became old, your own children get fed up of you. So, I left everyone and came back to my home. Mannu pestered me to be with him but because of my continuous cough, his grandchildren are irritated. I don't want to trouble my great-grandchildren.
"Oh, you got late married, so stop your blady drama," Bujji again started.
"No, stop fighting," Mannu said in a strict tone.
