Everyone had a wish in their childhood it can be anything; silly or not silly, we don, 't care. If we need we will fight for that, if we get it; we will later tell our kids that in those days I made a revolution. If not you will avoid eating your meal until your father beats. Is that right?

It applies to me also, it happens to me long back ago to be accurate it was 1968 in a very rural village; Tamilnadu, In that time I was 7 years old kid to my father who is works in shooting game that is held during festivals 25 paise 3 shots, yeah! He was one of that man, he never comes to home during festival seasons we only spoke with the letter that too written by the postman and my mother wishes to be a classic singer, but she was locked behind the windows and got married at 16 and my mom came in to my father's house after the first night he just kicked my mom, and her dreams to a kitchen and locks the door… finally I got a grandmother, she was always been in angry face… I don't see her is smiling to give her company she has four old ladies to talk to talk till the dawn the main topics was like telling stories about the struggles of freedom and hatred towards Muslims and see these generation kids…

I'm tired of hearing those to be open with you, she was like a broken record. To forget all my worries I got five best friends we are just best buddies of the village we used to play whole day. When I come back home my mom used to scold me because every day I get back to home, I will have a new question of something that is said to be a taboo subject to give you some examples like what is kissing, cloth with a blood in a 12-year-old girl's house and why she is sitting outside the house for 5 days; each month, and why are girls chest is some big…by thinking of these now I'm getting laugh but those days I really can't understand the facts behind it, and I was very eager to know.

That Muslim man will sharply cross our house at 8 am and that is the play time for me… while he crosses over I get a smell… Others close their noses, but for me wow! That smell still itches my noses;that was great smell then I got addicted to it and I started to stand outside just to smell it. That man noticed me one day that I was standing and the following day he plans and avoids the perfume… I got really sad even I avoided the meal; I was that much addicted to that smell.

To Explain that moment in the genre of fantasy I was in the middle of the untouched flowers; by coming near to me those flowers says, "go on just try, me, don't hesitate” I asked him what fantasy told; but no luck he refuses due to my grandmother. Then I sadly come out of his house, one of my friend saw me, and he ran to my mother and compelled she ran towards me with a bucket of water make me bath outside the home itself and my grandmother came out with a stick and hit me really hard, I started to cry, but she doesn't stop beating me, still now I have those wound marks; my mom drags me inside the room and locks me inside till the dawn and opens up with the meal, I avoided it she hugs me tight in her arms and says, "sorry I made everything for your grandmother” I sobbly asked, "why she has this much hatred?” My mom replied me that " your grandfather was a well-known freedom fighter in the town by later after independence while celebrating it Muslims burnt their house with your father's brother and your grandfather, so that only your grandmother hated Muslims” by telling it she made me eat and put ointment to my wounds and make me sleep with a pleasant classic song… That is the day I come to that my mom sings very well; I had a great sleep . the next morning my grandmother called to me near and made me sit and tells, "see my son those Muslim bastards will speak good for a few days, and then they will ask you to join in their forces, they don't care whether you accept are not the following day they will kidnap you to the forest and start giving shooting practice to kill our brothers and sisters did you want to kill our brothers and sisters?” I never replied to it, she holds my hand really hard;she herself replied with an evil tone, "fine…be a good boy go” then I saw the clock, it was almost 8 I ran to smell that javadhu he crosses my home, and he sees me and puts a small smile on his face then we started to hang out together outside the village. He was really good to me, I remember that he is used to buy a candy every day, and we used to sat near a lake, and he answered every question without hesitation.

Fucking your wife's ass get out from my village… Right now!!” Without telling a word they started their bullocks and starts to move, I was shocked and stunned; I can't believe my own eyes after seeing one of the bullock carrying burnt dead body of Abdul uncle I went to saw his house it was fired destroyed completely I started to run towards my grandmother with a lot of tears, and I beat her with my arms she doesn't cry or scream or beat she just stands still as a statue after hearing my sound my mom came out from the kitchen and drag me to the room and locks I didn't eat anything,I didn't go to play even I avoided to talk to my mom, I just lay down on my bed and cries and cries for an almost a week. My bed is soaked with plenty of tears, and the door is completely covered with untouched meals, my eyes automatically turns at 8 am towards the window to smell that javadhu but no success I could only smell the ashes, flames , hatred of my grandmother towards Muslims and I could see a boy gets scolding from his mother for touching those Abdul uncle's burnt house, and I saw the same woman stealing the un burnt vessels from the Abdul uncle's house, and I saw some mens urinate,curse, splits their saliva just to show dominance of Hindus and some parents purposely make their childrens to poop at his house… Still date when I imagine those visuals my eyes suddenly get tears…

On that same time my office is filled with blood stained post letters I took all the post in my bag and went home. My home is destroyed completely my wife, my children all been chopped into pieces. I took those chopped pieces, and I started to arrange it in order. After completing that I covered them with the letters, and I found a firing cigarette eventually, a letter with complete blood got my attention I took it and opens it and I start to read it was from a Hindu guy to a Muslim guy the words he wrote on that paper worth for a million.

My dad tries to stop her, but she doesn't hear that… after no success of calling her back my dad comes to home and start to ruin the house my mom tries to stop him, but she can't after a couple of minutes; he stopped and starts to cry. My mom hugs him… to give him comfort. In the next few minutes house turned into complete silence and I go to my room to apply javadhu but something is stopping me, my gut says no this is not the right time, so I skipped it. The next day was really like a dream, the time has come to apply it, I took it opened it and I took some in my hand and applied it, randomly… after applying it I felt like Abdul uncle near me, and he hugs me tight. I go out to show my parents, they smiled after seeing me, and I was very eager to show my friends so, I ran out to show them after seeing me and after smelling me… some ran away, some closed their nose, some cursed me, some called their mom, some were shocked, some were surprised, some laughed, some disguise me and only one friend ran towards me and said, "come let's play” he was the guy who touched the Abdul uncle's burnt house that day… we are best friends till now… now, days ran like a rabbit, but I wish them to be turtle, but I can't stop it. One fine midnight my mom wakes me up; by wiping her tears she said, "grandmother passed away come let's go and see” my mom carried me in her hip because I was asleep… I could only hear echo voices from the crowd, "go-go go away you are a sin” the next day, I come out to take a bath there I saw one of those old woman sitting in our house and cries, my legs stop moving I started to hear their conversation.
299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV5SORiBPM
Old woman sobs and sniffs, "sorry for not letting you inside to see your mother, we didn't plan anything your mother wrote a letter before dying, in that she told that my son is a sin so, don't allow him and his family to see my corpse even there tears shouldn't be fallen in my lifeless body and I have my savings of rupees 250… this money should be shared equally between my three old ladies, but I don't want this money, you take it, because you badly need it and one more thing she not only talked about hatred, she also talked about loved, her love is towards you guys she was hard outside but very very thin inside…”

Me busy with packing my javadhu and I went to see my close friend we played for a few hours after that my father called me "Parri we have to go come on” I said bye to him and I ran towards my father.
