Pune,10.00am

"Kahi yet nahi porila?(This girl can't even do the smallest chores.)"Taunted our guest. I was helping mom in kitchen as per the instructions by my great new found Aatya Aaji. She was examining the roti I had made. It wasn't perfect. It looked like map of a country. May it was the map of the Republic of Zumaritalaiyya. I wasn't good at making rotis or to be more specific,at cooking.

After the debacle of my rotis. Mom told me to go and study for a while. I could see she didn't like her daughter being criticised by someone over petty things. But she wasn't one of those people either who would react to it in an outrageous or rude way. She was too sweet to do something like that.

So when mom had told me about our guest,she had skillfully omitted the main traits of this human species standing in front of me. This sixty five year old woman had a different views on feminism. She was against the opinion of treating girls equally. According to her, a girl who doesn't know cooking was not going to be successful in her life ever. As if life was nothing but a master chef show. She was so against western culture. To her,Clothes were clothes only if they were traditional.

Mom hadn't mention she will be this dangerous. She will make my life even more miserable. It had been three days already and I hadn't even seen the face of my denims. How I missed my comfortable clothes! I was wearing a salwar with long kameez. The stupid dupatta keeps bungee jumping from my shoulder all the time .

"She doesn't get much time due her schedule. But she will learn cooking soon."I overheard mom talking to Atya Aaji when I left the kitchen. Mom, they never give up on you.

I was about to enter my room. When my eyes landed on the Study room. I went inside without any care in the world. To tell the truth, Dad was out of town due to some official work. So this made my work more easy. I walked upto the bookshelves. Then I observed the books on the shelf. Dad was an avid reader. He had collections of some classic books.

I took a book named 'Partner' from the shelf. I went to my room and started reading it,sitting in the big glass window of my room. This was my favorite spot for reading. I could see the people on the road whenever I took my eyes off the book. Soon I got hooked to the story. It was really intriguing. I cried at so much while reading it. I hadn't realised, it was afternoon when I ended the book.

I was brought back from my trance by Mom's voice"Baby what happened? Don't feel bad about what Sulekha Aatya said. To me, you are the best daughter in the world."

I wiped the tears and grinned at her"I am not sure if I am the best daughter but you are the bestest Mom in the whole world. And I am not crying over what Atya Aaji said. This is the reason." I held out the book in my hand.

"My crazy daughter will never change. I still remember how you had cried hysterically while watching 'Tarre Zameen par'. You hugged me for long time after the movie ended and didn't want to release me any sooner."she said sitting beside me. I scooted closer to her and replied"Someone didn't mention the part where I caught her wiping the tears with the pallu of Saree."

I smirked and hugged her tightly. She chuckled at my words and hugged me back.

"Mom, does she also hate me like Dad?"I asked when we pulled apart. I looked at her face. She nodded and then rested my head on her shoulder"Niyu, she doesn't hate you. It's just that she has an old way of thinking. She is still stuck to those old unfair traditions. When you hear something for your whole life, you start thinking it's right. You start beliving in it. Same is the case with Sulekha Atya,she grew up in a society which taught her a woman should not be outspoken, shying is the best thing for her. She should not try to outperform man cause that's not what she is supposed to do. She should accompany him instead in what he does."
