Dilemma

                           Dilemma

Lazy saturday afternoon, Sun showing no mercy ,temperature 45 'C . Somewhere in the capital of India's largest state . A mother daughter duo resting after having a meal contenting their souls . An old saying , two females in close space will definitely talk about anything and everything proving it all wrong mother in light slumber after completing her hectic morning duties and daughter lost in her " laa laa " land , zillions of ideas crossing her mind that too at the same time, Ofcourse a teenagers mind beating speed of light . Umm tomorrow is my class test I have to learn that boring shit but episode 5 of my favorite anime is airing today I CANNOT miss that. Siya was wearing such a nice dress yesterday I also want one Like that waitttt How can you think about copying somebody else dress , girl you have better taste but that dress was also Good though . Rishi.. Stopp he already has a girlfriend don't forget the pact of not crushing on taken man . Her train of thoughts came to a halt when heard her mother's slight whimpers of " ohh Maa" as her mother feels little back pain while changing her sleeping side . She looked at her with mischievous smile and in a teasing tone said " Mumma missing Naani ( maternal Grandmother) feeling bad for you, when I am in pain my mother is next to me only but yours live so far ." Mother chuckled on this silly statement given by her daughter who is slowly turning into a young and witty lady While looking at her intently , eyes full of love and care . Looking into mother's eyes as if trying to search something she again opened her mouth but this time words came out with utmost sincerity " You get to stay with Naani only for few days out of 365 and I have not seen you talking daily with her even on Phone calls DON'T YOU ACTUALLY MISS HER ?" Mother in her usual soft tone said " You know I actually was missing your Father when I said that " . Daughter's eyes squinted with visible lines on forehead , sensing her confusion mother continued " Its been 20 years of my marriage , in every emotion happy , sad or in pain your father comes into my mind automatically. He is really good , he cares a lot but.......................... A smile appeared on daughters face after seeing such a bond between her parents but soon various thoughts started to intrude her mind " So is it actually true that women's priority changes after marriage? ".
" How can someone who is not the one who gave you birth and with whom you had spend your childhood becomes so so special ? " " How after a period of time your parents become secondary and other relations over power it " " Is it going to happen with me also , no never . I don't think so " " How much a women's life and way of living changes gradually yet she accepts everything gracefully but is she liking all this or Just had to do it " While thinking about this a single tear rolled out of her right eye due to some unrecognisable, unsaid reason or might be frustration and that's how her new dilemma unlocked . ........... all this care of his sometimes opens the window of my memories from 1980's how She used to scold me , love me, guide me, and support me through my thick and thin."
