Falling Leaves

We humans are just some species formed by minute atoms in this vast universe. But at the same time, it is we humans who create a better and easier world with indefinite experiments, experimentation and imaginations to make this world a comfortable and easier world to live in. The industrial revolution which we have only studied in the history textbooks of schools is going on currently in this world, where every day seems to be the same as usual, but every other day new technology or developed programs pops up to make human work done easier. They even say that after this industrial revolution, it even replaces humans in many fields. Well, it is common for machines to do or replace human work. This is what we have been doing all along, but we shouldn't forget that it is us humans who have infinity in us. Not in some machines or in the far future. Well, now we have enough of making humans know what they are capable of, now coming to the story. It all begins with a lower middle-class Indian family. Our main protagonist is due for the delivery date and even 15 days has passed since and protagonist's father, Hanuman is obsessed with watching movies. Many people have different addictions and his addiction is watching a new film. To say in today's words, it is like a typical k-drama or anime addiction always searching for free time to watch it. Even with the past delivery date, rather feeling anxious, he and his wife, Rani went to watch a Tamil Telugu dubbed movie in theaters. And finally, after a week, our main protagonist is born, and she is named as Prema. The main problem of the protagonist is indecisiveness and laziness and pushing time to make important decisions. Even during the time coming out of, mother's stomach and seeing the world, and even during the annaprasana event (in most Indian families they place a few items in front of children, like pens, books, money notes, mikes, hammers, etc.; and make them choose the object they are attracted to like choosing pen means to become a writer book- intersted in study, hammer- to become judge or interested in law matters, money note- to make money, mike- to become singer etc.; it is just like another joyful occasion with the babies and with their close family members.) all she was crying not knowing what to choose. And in this confusion, she starts to grow up. Ever since childhood, Prema didn't like to mingle with crowds, always felt them suffocating even when traveling for some journey on a train. She always cries all along the journey. Even during the ceremony's of relatives, she never goes to the other person. So, eventually, her parents stopped getting her mingling with the crowds. So, while eventually growing up, she didn't even have her own thoughts. She is always influenced by her friends' thoughts. But, I don't know about her personality, but the looks she takes after is not her mother or father but, rani's mother, her maternal grandmother, Srojini. Since childhood, both her parents have been busy with jobs. So, Sarojini used to look after her. She liked sleeping with her grandmother and liked it when others said she took after her. At first, she used to call her ma, as grandma was hard to pronounce. She got used to eating spicy and liked pickled rice with no ghee. And even in curd rice, she liked to add the pickles made by her grandmother. Pickles are both Prema's and Sarojini's favorite. Even taking to people made her a little annoying or anxious not knowing how to talk or behave with them. But she liked hearing her gramother's talk. Even during bed time, Sarojini's talks about her relatives used to put her to sleep. Eventually, prema's parents moved out when prema was 3 years old, as rani's brother got married. But their visits to each other's houses were often made and prema used to cry at night because she wanted her ammama (grandmother). Every weekend she spends all her time with Sarojini. So, all the p;aces she knows to visit is her home, schools, grannie's hous, and movie theaterswith Hanuman. Hnauman's movie addiction was never gone. He has now prema added as a company to him, they used to get cd/ dvd's to watch movies or go to late night movies. One day at school, their teacher asked everyone what their dream was or the kind of adult they wanted to become. So, a discussion among the friends eventually arrived about what they chose during the annaprasana. And what kind of occupation they wanted to choose in the future when they were not even 10? Okay, but dreams have no age. Every profession or occupation seemed cool to the prema not knowing what to choose as her dream. She asked her parents to know what she chose during her annaprasana expecting something cool, so she decided to dream about it. But her father mockingly replied that she chose crying over the things placed during the ceremony. Her little expectations were shattered. So, to decide a dream she wants to know how every one in the world knows how to decide a dream. So she decided to become an astronaut. So, she knows how people decide their dreams, and then she can choose a cool little dream. So, her first little dream to be an astronaut started.
