Protest Against Unclean Stubble #9

-
"So what do you think now? You read the posts participated in PAUS. Right?" I asked Saahil, my classmate cum fellow blogger who loves his stubble and nothing could have ever persuaded him to alter that lousy look.

"Indeed, I read them all. And I guess no one adores this look anymore. Neither Isha, who loved Sid unconditionally, yet couldn't tolerate his stubble (Coffee Date). Nor the kids, whether its their father's (My Baby and I) or of Santa (Christmas Wish). There are much more losses, apart from upsetting your beloved wife (Adopting a Good Habit), than anyone ever think (There's more to stubble than you really know). There were myriad stories, poems and references." Saahil replied which baffled me a bit.

"So? Are you going to shave or not?" I inquired directly.

"Listen to me. I'm not finish yet. I always appreciated this look of mine. Makes me look little more grown up. But I don't care about what other think. The only opinion that matters is yours'."

Saahil bent down on his knees and held my hand. "Do you want me to shave?"

"Saahil, do you remember when we were in 6th standard, I kissed your cheek in a school play?"

 He nodded.

"I want to do the same, on the same cheek. But ..." I paused.

"But what?"

"Now if I'll kiss you, your stubble will hurt me."

Saahil smiled at my innocent reply. Finally he was able to see the love in my eyes, for him. He moved a little closer and kissed gently on my cheek, "I promise I will be shaved from now onward."

From that moment our friendship turned into something special. He kept his promise and his clean shaven look bowled me over and over again everyday.

Always wanted...

A parrot! A dazzling green and red parrot. I always wanted to be a parrot when I was 3. I just don't want to own it, but to be a parrot. Green and red being my favourite colours and statement from my mother that you could be anything you want, rooted this dream even harder. But pretty soon I released, it's not only impossible but implausible. Soon I changed my ideology, got sensitive, observed people around and took a firm decision of becoming a home maker. Cause they can nap in the afternoon. And I don't have to rush anywhere, like my mother who is a working lady. I was so determined that I started to train myself from the very next day and perceived that a home maker has to cook and clean, wake and wash, bring and build, make and shake, give and take; and practice all the verbs in our grammar. (So do working but my mom always get some help, my granny never.) As a result I ascended on my journey to search for another wanted to be, where I met a lady doctor.

You are calling at an unusual time." "Yes papa everything good, actually it's great." "Ooh, you sound different, what's new?" "Papa actually something strangely lovely happened yesterday. I was up late, the night before yesterday to finish some office work, so I woke up at 10 the next morning." "10? So late?" "Yes papa, and when I saw the time, I panicked and rushed to the kitchen and what I saw was unbelievable." "Ooh what was it?" "I was hoping for a mess but instead, everything was clean and done. Utensils, all clean and arranged, sweeping-mopping done, bedsheets and towels I left in the washing machine were drying in the balcony. And on top of that, there was Upma for breakfast." "O wow! Rea
