Its her birthday today and this post is dedicated to her though she will not be reading it ever.
Wish she could.
I am sure she would have cried.
The super senti woman that she is.
She cries the most in my family I think.
She used to cry every time she read the 'hostel' poem I wrote.
Whenever I go home, she is the person I talk to the most. she goes on and on...
"So how is Neha? when is raji's shaadi? what does her husband do? what is neha's sister doing now? where is prachi now? how is tarang doing? What do you eat at the hostel? how do you sleep at the hostel? blah..blah..
She has to know everything. and she does know everything.
I so love yapping my time away with her...and get updates of the whole family from her... We dont argue much... the only few topics (on which too we have agreed to disagree) being my sleeveless dresses and my dirty jeans.
She loves chocolates, ice-creams, jalebis, moong dal sheera and pav-bhaji... in the same order.. but if you really ask her, she will deny and say she really isnt too much of a foodie..
At home, the most beautiful moments are when I wake up in the morning and go back to sleep with my head in her lap... and she gets sentimental and asks me if I will remember her when she is gone...
and how much ever you insist that you will, she will not believe you... She celebrates her 80th birthday today...
@ 80 she hardly looks or behaves her age... She works enough to put a 40 year old to shame.
We call her the most reliable reminder...
She can discuss with you about anything and everything under the sun and crack genuinely pathetic jokes with you... some of them are at times straight dirty!
She is a total sweetheart... A lady who has seen and gone through much in life. One of the most sensible and strong people I know.. Happy birthday ajji :)
