B R E A D
I grabbed some money from my mom's purse. I turned around to see if anyone was there. Then I ran hurriedly to open the elevator of our building. I entered in to elevator and switched the ground floor button. My palms were sweating dangerously. I was running, my heartbeats were faster than before. A shop was there near our building its name was written as B A K R E Y in big capital letters.
Asked the shopkeeper: Uncle can you give me some fresh bread?
Shopkeeper: Yes, dear.
Me: Give me a loaf and what is price?
Shopkeeper:45 rupees.
Me: Thank you uncle and take your money. I switched the elevator button again thinking what will happen when all
will know about me. I was scared but had enough courage to face what will be the result. Our floor came and turned to see mom and dad looking at me worried face.
Dad: Where were you, we are searching here like mad person. Are you serious about your exam or not?
Mom: Rinu , dear where were you and we thought because of Maths exam that you ran from home ,like your father said are you going to attend exam or not?
Both were looking so angry.
I was about to cry, with sobs I told '' dad, mom had nothing to eat in breakfast, every morning she works like a machine and no one is here to ask either she eat or not .and today because of exam I can't help her in chores. And she did all these works alone and you also know dad her health conditions are not good nowadays. in hurry she only made breakfast for both of us and standing here with empty stomach and acting like nothing is happened. So, I decided to ***cries*** to get some food for her from market.
I was crying like hell; tears were flowing like a river.
Both were looking me with soft eyes, mom had some tears in eyes, they were shining due to happiness. But dad was worried because of exam and also looking me like I made some sin. After that dad took me to collage, whole journey dad was silent and told me to never do some things like that and do not stress and give your best. Exam was not so good but its ok , I returned to home mom was saying someone in phone ,''Rinu is our best daughter , she brought food for me before the exam and she also argued with us ,am proud of her''.
I was feeling happy, that was not the matter of loaf of bread but the respect and love for the Dearest person, M y Mother.
