For a person like me who lived in
hostel for past 6 years, this might be
like a semester break with no attendance problem anymore. Perhaps, this is the
last and longest break we ever take to spend with our parents. At least, this
is true in my case. I felt so sad when I was leaving my college but never
thought of how happy my parents will feel when they meet me as a successful
graduate with a job in hand. Came home and saw that happiness and satisfaction
in their eyes. My father started spending as much time as he can with me. He
always has some kind of concern in his mind towards me. About a job until I got
one and now again the same job that is going to pull me away from him. When I
was a child, I used to sleep with one leg laid on my father to have some
feeling of security. And to my surprise, these days my father is sleeping with
a hand laid on me daily. But this time it is not the feeling I had past then.
May be, it is a sense of love, concern, care…that he fears cannot express them
again if he do not now. Not many chances here on we get to stay close with our
loving ones. He started being a friend of mine with warm chats and satirical
jokes. I don’t mean he never wanted to be a friend like person with me. But, he
has got no chance to be like that and this is the correct time too. I ve
started enjoying these MOMENTS I ve starved for
And now am holding my father’s hand
tightly when he is laying it over me……
