Not wanting to be watched by the guard i carefully exit the main entrance.

I went to a stationery shop and purchased the necessary items that i needed for my new session.

I still had some money left with me and i didn't knew what to do with it. I was walking on the daylight road, when suddenly i saw a lot of commotion outside a tea stall. Only this tea stall in our sector had t.v. . Being a curious child i joined the present public to know what's happening. A news was been telecasted that ' A 10 YEAR OLD GIRL HAD BEEN RAPED BY THREE MEN'. I didn't knew what the word rape meant. Being myself i asked one of the uncle standing there its meaning.

He narrowed his eyes at me and again turned his face towards t.v. . I nudged him again and out of irritation he said me to ask my mom.

With determination to ask my mom i went back to home and quietly entered my home and directly went to her room to see her indulged in the same book. I called her out and she just hummed. Taking it as que i bluntly asked her ' MOM, WHAT'S RAPE'.

She asked me where did I heard this word. I told her about the news. She just stared at me few second as if reading me as an open book. After some time she asked me if my school told me about periods. Again a new word, i thought. As if Understanding the whole situation she asked me to sit beside her. I obliged her and she started to tell me about rape,periods and the word i asked her in morning 'testicles'. With each passing second my expressions were changing like change in climate.

She told me everything patiently answering my each doubts and i also listened her attentively.
