I said this when my parents gave me an ice cream just before I went to bed. It was too cold for my comfort….and I definitely cared about my teeth.
The ice cream is so cold. Why did you keep it in the fridge?
Today morning my parents made up after their previous night’s fight over the birds – my first pet.
In the morning my mother apologized for not serving dinner for my father the previous night. My father also said “It is ok, Rekha” and went to office.
The moment he was gone she cried for a while and then told me that she had fought with father over the birds. As if I wouldn’t have known if she hadn’t told me.
I just held her hands and kept staring at her.
After a while she sent my father an SMS, and he also sent back a quick reply. After a few SMS exchanges…she was smiling again.
As far as I remember, this was the first fight they hadn’t sorted before going to bed. My mother must have really hated pets – I say in past tense because NOW she loves the birds.
And we both take care of them together.
I have started getting perspectives. For example, I know birds grow slowly when compared to human beings.
Here in this video I demonstrate my new found skill.
*I am glad my father got a new iPhone. It has a flash which makes me look fairer even in the dark.
Today my father bought home a pair of Australian Zebra Finch birds. I am very excited.
But my parents fought over it. They didn’t want me to know…but apparently my mother doesn’t like pets at all.
Today I also came to know that after marriage my father wanted to get a dog…but my mother refused. Being what my father is…he gave up the fight.
About six months back, my father suggest a pair of rabbits (because I was now a big girl and could manage rabbits)….but again my mother refused to budge.
So, when came to the Australian Zebra Finch birds…my father didn’t ask my mother – he just bought them home. This irked my mother.
I would blame it on the darkest and longest lunar eclipse in 100 which is to happen tomorrow. My gut feels tells me that it isn’t good for couples in love.
Anyway, watch my first reaction to the birds in the house.
Important: I had just come back from the park at 8 pm, so I am all sweaty in this video.
After coming second in the drawing competition – which was my first competition & my first podium finish – I have been on a roll.
I have been spending a lot of time with the water color set I got as the prize.
Here is my first painting. Don’t miss the prominent flower in the canvas.
