A
heart- touching one.....
"My wife
called, 'How long will you be with that newspaper? Will you come here and
make your darling daughter eat her food?
I tossed the
paper away and rushed to the scene. My only daughter, Sindu, looked frightened;
tears were welling up in her eyes.
In front of her
was a bowl filled to its brim with curd rice. Sindu is a nice child, quite
and intelligent for her age.
I picked up the
bowl. 'Sindu, darling, why don't you take a few mouthful of this curd rice?
Just for Dad's sake, dear'.
