And when i came back home i had so many ways in which i could have responded to her. Why do people loose humility as they grow older, why is there so much hate. Just a simple act of 2 people playing cricket outside her home made her go mad, so mad that she didn't have the coutesy even requesting us to leave. Out she came like a bull behind a gate charging on seeing a red cloth, blah blah blah and more blah with the sound boom!! bang!! One thing did stick out "At this age how can you be playing cricket". Damn do i look so old or may be she was just too illogical to makes sense of things. Had she ever seen light moments in her life. Where did all that vengeance come from, that lady spitting venom made me feel out for her, she definitely was not happy with life.
Well maybe she was just too worried about the Rangoli outside her gate. But whatever the case, humility and requesting are abilitites that any person can do with.
We quitely walked away without uttering a word, her illogical remarks made it dificult for me to even start a conversation.
Getting back home I felt happy and sad at the same time. For once the incident reminded me of the times when we were kids and there were these aunties who used to scold us for playing cricket. But sad that such people exist in education home like hers with her house proudly proclaiming her husband to be an IIM B graduate. I atleast hope he has some humility, i seriously do hope.
