" Amma is it okay if I laughed
A little louder than Bhai"
" That's a wrong mannerism
For a woman to do."
" Than what if I get to play outside
Like Bhai does.
Surely I have enough time to spare
A few minutes chasing him."
" No he is a boy and you are a girl..
A girl is safer at home"
" What if I could sit idle and ask him for a cup of tea"
" What did I told you!
Woman are to serve man"
" What if I could go to school like him,
Maybe I can learn so much more from school"
" Schools are for boys!! They learn from school so that oneday he can be a provider "
" Amma if he is a provider what am I?"
" Gudiya woman are born to serve man,
You see a man provides and
A woman keep his home together "
" Can't I be the provider and
He keeps my home together.."
Amma laugh at Gudiya's innocence.
" The world doesn't work that way.."
