For Sister

I was around 9 or 10 and my younger sister had recently joined my school. Every Republic Day, a Fun Fair was organised in our school where we used to buy and sell many things. At that time, we didn’t get any pocket money, because parents provided us with anything we wanted. But they didn’t want us to read comics and hence we had to read them at friends’ place.

For Fun Fair, we got fifteen rupees each. And for our baby sister, I had got Rs 5 to get her what she wanted.

Very strategically, I had spent all my Rs 15 in buying comic-books and spent the day enjoying the fair without purchasing anything else. I hadn’t spent her Rs 5 yet.

Around 3 O’ clock, I saw her. She was running and playing very near to a guy selling balloon. In between, she used to look at the balloons, but she didn’t ask for them and neither did she tell me that she wanted those. I felt sooooooo bad.

I went to her and asked if she wanted balloons. She happily said yes… I bought her one and she started playing with it…

Even now, when I remember this incident, tears come to my eyes...

Ask me...

Price of a balloon :)
