"Everyone is good here!..what about you?"

"Son....she is in her last stage!.. please do visit here... come back. She was memorizing you. "
"What?... I am coming Nani.. I will be there! "
"Take care Son...! "
"Love you! "
I started packing my bags and within an hour I reached Railway Station and picked a train to Tatanagar Jharkhand. I was going there after 10 years. It's my granny's house there. But I am not going there for my own Granny ..but for a lady I don't have any blood connection...
10 YEARS AGO
I was spending my childhood at my granny's house in Jamshedpur after my father had left me and mother alone. I went to the local school nearby as we were not able to afford Private school's fees.
Mom had started here job as a local weaver.
I mostly spend my evenings with kids there. They make me travel through different places unknown to me. One day while coming back home we noticed a big jambolan tree decorated by its Java plum in my neighboring house.
Our mouth started watering. Everyone of us wants the black jambolan.. but the question was...How? We started arguing each other to bring the fruit.
"Arun..he can bring them..it would be easy for him as they are his neighbors.." one of the boy shouted.
"No No.. I can't... "
The house next to next from my granny's one but I don't even know the landlord as my mother didn't let me met the neighbors as they usually ask about my father.
I continuously refused but there was one who was ready to listen to me. Finally I decided to enter the house secretly and asked my friends to stay outside.
I climbed the tree and one by one started throwing the plum outside and suddenly hears the voice of someone's walk.
"Who there?" a voice approached
Everyone started running away leaving me there. I know it will take time to get down so I decided to jump off the tree.
I falsely jumped off the tree and i fall down.
My hip hit the ground and my back started paining. Before knowing what basically had happened I saw a old lady standing right in front of me.
"Are you OK son? " she asked humbly
I didn't want to reply a stranger but my eyes had given her the answers..they were filled with tears.
"Let me help you. " She make me stand and rubbed my back and cleans my clothes. I was still quite.
"Who's child you are?" she asked
"Mrs Kavita" I replied
"Oh! you are the Kanti's grandson?"
"Yes she is my granny!"
"Never got a chance to show you.. "
She was quite good and polite. She asked me to came inside but I refused. She asked me to stand there and went in. She came back with a bunch of plums and asked
"Do you like them?"
"I love them"
She gifted me the bunch and I leaved the house thanking her.
PRESENT TIME
I never thought that time it was going to both of us so special for each of us....
Whenever I remembers the time spend with her and had a big smile on my face. She must had changed a lot... I dying to met her.
"Granny I am Coming"...
