Day 2 in this World

Who is this man taking my picture? Doesn’t he know that flash isn’t good for newly borns? Why doesn’t he listen to my mother? “Don’t touch my mother, I say!”

I woke up with a start when it started getting cold, and then realized my mother had got up. Didn’t know where she had gone so started crying. In case you didn’t know…I can only see up to 1-2 meters….everything else beyond that is a blur.

I did catch a glimpse of my father late last evening – one short, dark guy. With a big nose and unkempt hair (luckily I am not talking of the nose hair). For a long time, he kept telling my mom that I was way too delicate and he can’t lift me. I was upset and happy at the same time – happy because I didn’t want to go to that short, dark man and upset because he didn’t think I was strong.

All I need is some time in the gym…why don’t people understand that.

Later in the evening, Nisha came. Apparently Nisha used to be my mother’s classmate in college. Nisha found me really cute and…and for a moment I was scared that I would be sent away with her. Later, was glad to know when I over heard my mom ask Nisha: “So, how are your two kids doing?”

Savithri aunty, Lakshmi Kutty aunty, Raji aunty and Divya sister came to see me today. They were might excited to see me…but I couldn’t see them well.

With too much action in a single day, I fell asleep when Divya sister sang my first lullaby in this World.

*I have some concerns with feeding. I need to speak to my mother tomorrow.
