"ANAYAAAA..." I screamed.

"Come here and eat your dinner quietly. I'm sick of chasing behind you all day.  " I shouted on top of my lungs  running behind my six year old daughter who's probably trying to piss me off.

"Mom ... Catch me if you can! " she sticks her tongue out ,running around the house like crazy.

"Anaya.. Don't run bacha... Please " I said tired and sat on sofa with thud. Everyday I get drained due to office work and when I come back home ,she does all this things to irritate me.

"Mom. " Suddenly I hear her sweet voice.

I look at Anaya who is taking baby steps towards me. After sometime she stood straight infront of me.

"Mom.. I'm sorry..I won't irritate you again. I'll eat silently give me." she said with cute pout, that's it all my tiredness vanished in a blink. I could feel my lips curving up into smile.

I kissed her on cheek  " Why are you behaving weird today? I asked coz its a miracle that she wants to eat food by her will.

She narrowed her eyes at me and said. " Because I know you are tired after work and my behavior is making you angry. " her face was so dull.

"Nah..mumma will never be angry on you , and yeah I'll make you eat. Okay baby. " I smiled and took her in my lap.

"Wow really. " she clapped her hands.

Slowly I made Anaya eat her food, while eating we both talk about how our day went. She speaks about her school while I talk about my office and work. Though anaya is a child yet she is mature enough to know many things. When I say, I can't afford any new thing or toy for her she understands my situation and makes me feel good.

"Mom .. I'm full " she says pointing to her belly.

"Acha.. Okay! " I said and wiped her mouth with towel.

"Go to your room I'll wash dishes and come. " I said and walked towards kitchen.

Later ,to my surprise Anaya didn't went to her room instead she followed behind me everywhere like a puppy. I wondered why?

"Aree,why are you following me? Do you want something? " I asked Anaya bending down to her level.

Anaya stood silent , she took a card from her pajama pocket and gave it to me.

I was confused at first until I read the card. All of sudden my heart skipped it's beats. I could feel my eyes getting teary. The card is about parent teacher meeting of Anaya. Both parents should come to school for meeting. It's mandatory.

"Mom... Will dadda come this time?" Anaya whispered, her eyes were teary.

I looked at my daughter crying in front of me. My hands started shivering. I could feel myself getting anxious. My heart started aching watching Anaya's red teary face yet I stood silent coz I didn't have answers to her questions.

"Mom.. I want to see dadda.. Will he ever come to see me " she chocked and cried. Tears were pouring out of her eyes.

I couldn't help but hug her tight in my arms. Oh lord! what you have done to my child. Just coz of my silly mistake my daughter is suffering. She cries every day and night about this thing. she wants to see her dad but how will I say to her that she was a product of..
