Jab They Met !!! :)

Theme song for this post:

" 'ఛిన్నారి పొన్నారి కిట్టయ్య నిన్నెవరు కొట్టారయ్య '

'అమ్మ నన్ను కొట్టింది బాబూ...అమ్మ నన్ను తిట్టింది బాబూ '

'ఊరుకో మా నాన్నా... నిన్ను ఊరడించ నేనున్నా ' "


Sometimes in 1990 - 2000:

I was thinking “ She really DID THAT?? ”


Sometimes in 2000 - 2010:

I was thinking “ SHE did that ??? ”

what I was thinking ? You might have got the idea looking at the theme song :) To make things clear for you I better start write what happened actually.

Okay….this happened when I was in my IV or V grade… don't remember exactly.. lets go to my school days :)


My mom has a friend .Her name is Padmasri.. they are really really good friends... till date. I am not sure when they met first time , might be in their intermediate days or in their type institute days.As you are aware, doing higher/lower in typewriting ( i dont know much abt these ) was a rage those days. .Okay..coming back to story…. When Padmasri aunti moved to some other town ,they used to keep in touch through the only source of communication then i.e., letters. I can say..there was a good frequency of letters. Later I came to know that she moved to Nellore.


Whenever a letter arrived from her friend my mother would show to us with full of happiness and say “ maa padmasri daggaranunchi letter vachhindi”. This scene would happen mostly when I came home for lunch-break . I don’t know why but for some unknown reason even I used to feel very happy :) . I never saw her friend before. I just knew her through my mom’s words. “ maa friend chala manchidihi” ani cheppedi.


So finally one day she arrived at our house. i dont know whether my mother knew about her visit beforehand ...... or it might be a sudden surprise visit, I am not sure. Anyways..she came. And i saw her atlast. My mom was very happy and they kept on talking talking....tallking. My mom started preparing kaarapusa ( definition of kaarapusa: a telugu snack prepared by pressing dough(which dough??) in heated oil through a punch-like-equipment :P). Believe me ...the karapusa that day was THE best i ever tasted.


I remember that day...it was cloudy and breezy. sometime later... they were in their own world chatting. I was sitting a little close to them . But, i was in my own world . I seemed I was not at all interested in waht they were talking. i didnt even feel like that there were some around me... i was like detached from everything..as kids act usually.... doing something.......completely lost in my own world... PHAATT!!!!!

Heard something? rewind yourself..... did u hear the sound PHAAT? dont worry ...How could you when its frequency was greater than 20,000 Hz (Ultrasound,beyond the audible range of humans :)). That sound was the result of a kinetic palm striking against a static cheek. a unique slap on my face. Didnt understand for a while waht happened. It took me a few seconds . My mom slapped me. Yeah..she did. I was still in shock when she asked " Entaa pani?" pointing at the floor ( what are u doin?) .Slowly i came back to senses and tried looking at what i was doing . I was taking out all the matchsticks from the matchbox and was dropping on the floor.I dont know why i was doing that .... my mind was somewhere.Then i looked at my mother. My eyes' cubic capacity to hold back tears reached threshold and they were trying to gush out..... Without a word , I went away from that place and edupe edupu :) . End of the story. Period .

You might be wondering why i am writing all this in a post. Its because that was the first time I ever had a SLAP from my mother :) . Not just it was the first time but also it was the last time ( till now ;) . I dont remember... but I guess, she might have said sorry to me later :)

She didnt mean to do that...it just happened. . :) . Or ,being the victim ,i can say like in a typical Kota sreenivas rao style " ...time baabu time... " :)


So...Thats what happened when Simhapuri girl came to meet Bhanupuri girl . (Long back..Nellore and Suryapeta were called Simhapuri and Bhanupuri resp.)


P.S: My mom and her firend could not meet again. Next time If they meet, I will place myself at a minimum distance of 2 meter away from the duo :) . better kadaa??
