ESHA'S POINT OF VIEW
4 YEARS LATER

"Ma wake up........" Mishika screamed in my ears just like how my mom used to wake me up early in the morning.

"What happened now?" I asked hugging my pillow more tightly.

"I don't know how to wear this shoe." Mishika whimpered.

"God Mishika!! Where is Aadhvik? Tell him to do all this. Let me sleep." I literally begged her. I swear people disturbing you early in the morning is an another level of hurt.

"Mufasa is making breakfast." She said crying.

"Stop crying early in the morning Mishika. You are pissing me off." I woke up finally and looked at her. She stood there perfectly ready for school with the pair of school shoes on her hand.

"Come here." I stretched my hand out and made her sit on my lap. I took the shoes and socks and wore it for her.

"Done. You go down. I will brush and come." I said and got her down my lap. She ran down picking her backpack. Play schools are hell. Aadhvik said me time and again to not join her in play school.

I brushed my teeth and went down. Aadhvik was feeding Mishika and she sat down playing with her toys.

"Why couldn't you help her wear her shoes today? She came all way long up disrupting my sleep Aadhvik." I said rubbing my eyes.

"This is why I told you not to join her in play school. Isn't our home big enough for her to play around." Aadhvik puts the blame on me. It's not surprising to me anymore. He always does that!

"She doesn't let me work nor does any job." I defended myself.

"Ohh do you even do work? I am the one who does everything from cooking to cleaning the house. The only thing you do is put the cloths in washing machine and it is me who dries them." He scoffs.

I galred at him, "I was once upon a time working Aadhvik and when I got pregnant yoh apprently was so concerned about your baby that you wanted me to quit my job!! If not I would have earned and kept a house keeper with my money rather than swiping your card."

"Why do you always keep seperating money as yours and mine. Everything is ours" he sighs.

"No! No! I have some basic dignity to not borrow from anyone."

"You? Dignity? Quite Funny" he raises his eyebrows with a smirk and picks Mishika's bag up.

What is so funny in me having a dignity??!!!

Jackass!

"Mishika..... I am all ready." Sabha comes running all way long.

"Someone got too busy to even look at me" I said looking at Sabha making myself look so worried.

"Even you never look at me when you come home to see Ma." Sabha turns her face to the opposite direction. Her answer was something right. Me and Dua completely forget that we are mother of a kid when we both are together. It is always Zayd and Aadhvik who runs behind the kids.
