What To Gift????

It was a sunny Monday afternoon..🌄 ...The people were busy in their daily routine!!..The clock was ticking 3:00 pm..⌚.! He was tensed ...

Within a few minutes...he heard the cries of a baby girl!!..She was small.. cute ..with a baby pink texture...!!Her mother was very happy....with a great sigh of relief..for the new life she carried into  the world!! He slowly moved into the ICU and looked at her...he was greatly delighted looking at the new baby girl beside her mother!!..but he just had a small smile over his face!!..it was his introverted nature...

   People were celebrating the merry occasion at the home!! The baby girl was in a sense of wonder noticing the new world she has arrived at!!..Her mother took her onto her lap , He fed the baby a homemade traditional sweet as a part of the cultural event!! The baby closely looked at him..and licked the sweet ...he was happy at this...

   With days passing....the baby girl started to learn words..."ammma,. thhaa"..."na"...with various sounds...He was very eager to hear from her calling "nanna"(father)...

There came a day when she called "nanna(father)"..this made him very joyous..yet a sense of great responsibility and care flashed in his mind..with thoughts if he could bring her up well and make her happy!! But..even this time this introverted man just smiled!!..and looked ahead...

   With elapsing time..the baby girl turned into a school student!!

She used to learn tables in seconds..and recite slokas so well..at her comfortable place with father and mother at 5-6 years age!

He was very elightened at her child's talent.. hoping for a bright future!!

   The girl found the school atmosphere to be a totally new one with anonymous faces !!..But slowly she started to adjust and learn at her pace!! She seemed to have inherited his introverted nature too..calm ..yet studios one at school!!

At times , he used to get furious with her ...may be he was greatly stressed out of his work pressure!!

The girl was quite emotional when it was the case with her father...that tears started rolling down her eyes .. spontaneously!! 

 Yet..she felt it very comfortable and confident holding her father's finger and walking whenever she went outside!!...He was always there for her to fulfill all of her tiny wishes ...may it be having a chocolate...or wanting a toy...or a pink gown...or celebrating her birthday with a surprise!!

There had been a funny yet naughty incident with her father!! Probably she was 6-7 years old..her father bought a new phone!! This girl spontaneously grabbed it and dropped in a bucket of hot water 💦..her childish thinking meant she was cleaning the phone along with her barbie  doll toys!!😇...Looking at this, her father .,.at once felt anger...but looking at her innocent face...he just laughed out..with her!!😀

The memorable moments included having an ice cream 🍦with her father after seeing a dentist to fill her cavity ...may be twice a month!!

 

 Most of her traits like being a bookworm...or finding satisfaction out of learning ..were because of his influence!! ......years passed by and this girl completed her schooling with a good grade!!

  He was quite happy...but even this time we could see only that tiny smile over his cheeks...the same was the case with the girl!

  He bought her favourite sweet and congratulated her at her successful moments..and just smiled!!!

Whatsoever may be the case ..the girl always keeps looking for her father's approval...his opinion always meant a lot to her ... though she never expresses that !!

  Well...there were instances too where they both played the role of Tom and Jerry ....where starts a never ending argument!!     Most of the time..this girl's scientific and  bookish thinking...and her father's conservative approach stood at two opposite poles....

Yet,...This girl was so stubborn!!

  There were days where she used to get restless with her father at some circumstances ....but finally .. she comes to the right conclusion that his approach made her strong ..to face challenges ...though it seemed difficult at times!!

   His way of living was so simple.. that inspired the young girl to stay simple.....

   One day ..this girl went to hospital for a blood test with her pappa..when the nurse started filling the syringe 💉 ....he instantly closed his eyes...at the sight of blood flow from his daughter's hand...and advised her to not get afraid!!...this girl kept looking at that with wonder!!...she was never afraid of blood..or the hospital atmosphere , added to that, she felt it interesting and appealing!!..She greatly felt the care her father had for her at such cases!!

Though he seemed like an aloof personality .....he was quite sensitive and emotional at heart!!..

   There were many instances where the girl was able to find her full potential ...and succeed... .rather than limiting herself to her own way of thinking...this again was the impact of her father's words....that get deeply imprinted in her mind!!.....

  Although the girl and dad never seemed so close....she admired him the most!! And he cared her the most..and both were quite introverted individuals by nature!

 Such a beautiful relationship it is!!

  One day..the girl sat down and started thinking deeply !! It was her Pappa's birthday the next day...and she was confused ....that what should she gift him??

What to gift??????

  She started penning down her thoughts and beautiful memories!!..hoping this proves to be the best ever gift!!..well she even had a will to fulfil great dreams and make him feel proud!!

What could she expect as a return gift from her pappa other than his utmost care and support for her dreams??..well ..that's the most wonderful thing for her!!!!
