Loving
little girls ever since Jiya came in my life when I went to Delhi. She taught
me how little girls are, how they should be treated and how they must be taken
care with immense love. I cannot forget the time I spent with that little kid.
Like my blood is circulating in my body because of her as she filled up my life
with joy and fun. The kid in a movie "Despicable Me" has also
inspired me a lot. Though it is an animated movie, the youngest kid amongst the
three little girls 'Agnes', I feel she is a real and will come to play with me
coming out of the screen & I will give a fluffy unicorn, hug her and kiss
her forehead when she'll go to bed.
It's
Mumbai when Jiya is away from me. Back in Delhi, enjoying school, friends,
mummy and daddy. Now I miss her company. I have no one to spend my weekends
with. I used to go the India Gate on sundays with Jiya. Seeing the large
gardens and water pools, she went crazy, she ran here and there and made me
tired. But that always have satisfied me. Jiya has curley hair and you know my
Bihar residing friend likes them a lot. She too, has curley hair. She is
unmarried yet she has many children. Wondered why? Those are actually little
baby bunnies whom she cares like her own children. After Jiya, I would probably
list her name in my list as the most adorable kid! Now I am alone. I have no
kids around. I always ask god to give company of little angels whenever I miss.
And he does. Now he sends them into trains while journeying between
Mumbai-Valsad. I am always accompanied by little girls! Wow! This is something
greatest ever created by God. A girl. That's what my heart says when I see
those little little eyes, little little fingers, little little palms and little
little toes.
The
most memorable moment I spent with a little girl around 10 year old in Goa
Sampark Kranti. I was coming back from Delhi and I couldn't manage reservation
ticket to return home. And so I decided to go by general ticket from Hazrat
Nizamuddin. I found Goa Sampark Kranti which has no stop between HN and
Vadodara. So I filled up my bags with biscuits and water because it was departing
around 7:15 AM and reaching at 10 PM in Vadodara. As soon as I got in, a Delhi
based family came in my compartment along with that little girl, going to
attend the marriage ceremony in Goa. Within a minute, she started playing with
me after eating some food. The busy schedule has made me forgotten her name.
But her sweetest memory won't ever forgotten by me. She was both innocent and
smart girl who never wanted to lose in life. She played different games with me
during journey. If she lost, she beat me hardly. For her sake, I started losing
games playing with her. Later she said, " I always take part in
competitions held in our school. I always win and never let the other girls win
the games." I thought," By God! Look at her self confidence! At the age
of 10, she has such attitude in life, then what she'll be able to achieve when
she'll get bigger!"
When
the family started taking lunch, I got up from there and came down to the door
and sat on the stairs. Suddenly a woman came and started shouting me, "
Why are you eating Gutka and spitting?" I opened my mouth widely and said,
" I never consume such things." She apologized and went to her place.
I was listening to the Haryanvi songs sitting there and didn't went to my seat
even after the family's lunch was over. The little girl was waiting for me but
I didn't go there as I was in a deep thoughts about everything. She came to me
mischievously from behind and pulled one of the ear plug from ear. She started
listening and asked, "What type of a song is this?" I immediately
changed it and turned hindi songs. She saw my face, was quite sentimental that
time. She immediately asked like a big lady,
"What happened? You have suddenly lost a
smile. Why are you sitting here? Come on. We're going back. We're playing."
I said, "Okay okay beta. You
just go there. I will come very soon. Sitting near door isn't safer."
She had decided to sit with me rather than going to her parents.
But his father soon came and scolded her while taking her back. She gave her
palm from window and I had a hand shake. The Vadodara station was about to
arrive and that little one was tired playing games with me entire day. She was
sleeping. I wanted to thank her but I could not even say her BYE & sung a
line,
“Twinkle twinkle little stars, always come and make me laugh…..”
