Mystery Of Ma
An early morning with serenity spilling out from the atmosphere, the misty winters dancing in the front orchard where we sat for breakfast, Tea and eggs along with lots of almonds was the norm,
Sugar cubes clinked inside the transparent glass and slowly melting away in the liquid, while the vapours outside condensed on the cup,
No sugar for me, I retorted as my mother pulled out a cube ready to be dived in my warm tea........ I don't like it, "Morning and sugar won't go well " I declared, There was sun rising & hiding as it was 6 in the morning and possibly it would play hide and seek in the winter, if it is going to be there at all..... , as mother had predicted sometime ago....
I was reading a newspaper, and jotting down some points....with backing up from my friends - tea and eggs to keep my eyes open, while jong had already woken up and was gleefully playing with Bruno or ( Genghis ) in the garden, oh! Genghis because whenever he comes inside the house bumping and jumping dropping the stuff, while his saliva dripping to bite someone everyone gets in their respective rooms and bolt it from inside, and then after some hustle and bustle jong takes that stubborn Bruno or Genghis and bolts him in an enclosure type garden of ours, then house comes to life again that's another story.....when he went on a human spree......!
Mumma handed me my cup, I slightly irate with studies said, we should change the cup to Longpi or something it's not nice to use glossy cups the more the glossiness the more dull they make life, and their matte finish is good for nothing lead and silicon, quartzite, kaolin all together with lots more is enough to give us cancer and other diseases, I informed earlier also we should use burnished pottery and tableware......., mum replied yes! Yes...... Abhi have breakfast instead of creating a geyser on your head . ...
I calmed down.... Then began eating and reading , I correlated something I read with Bismarck....
Well, as I am somewhat inspired by Bismarck's great strategy of " Unifying Germany ", the undisputed master of multilateral world chess!His strategies are of prime interest to me, I informed my mother, I am planning to be a strategist she replied, oh! So you plan for a unification somewhere just like bismarck, I was like not exactly but , just an advisor or so..... I further recounted, what a name " Blood and Iron Policy " Just imagine it sounds so great, if there is really no iron how can we get blood also...... ( I was doing the sciencing of this phrase) and my mother replied yes, right like if you don't take your folic tablets there won't be any iron and no formation of haemoglobin, so quickly take the inconvenience of getting up and taking your medicine, otherwise I will throw out all your teddy bear 's....., so i had to agree and finally had that folate medicine!
Then I came back to newspaper stories and informed my mother , while she was having her breakfast, Do you known who is the second richest Man of China and bags certain position of being richest ...? By then jong had stopped playing and was sitting with us.... She was also curious, quietly taking in the question.....
She after a pause, replied, "No I don't, tell who is it!
I informed see it's, Jack Ma, ..... Long back before he had even planned to resign as chairman of Alibaba..... And softbank.
Engrossed in breakfast my mother, stated oh, I know I know she is somebody's wife right .... And someone's mother, I think Jack Ma is a very famous woman.... And his son is also famous I just can't recall......
Jong and me looked at each other for a while, while mumma kept on muttering ......
And then we both burst out laughing 😂🤣😅
Hahaha, someone's wife ........ And mother added jong ..... Hahaha!
Uh.... I replied no no, didnt I tell "He is a man, my question was.... World's richest man.... Not woman and then we both had fits of laughter, while mother screwed her face.... And then said okay okay, fine...... These people ...... I got confused with someone else and this guy because he had a name of Jack Ma and' Ma ' stands for mother....! Bad kids, you shouldn't laugh.... Now.... And then she joined us and the laughter session went on..... Till tears drenched from eyes and the involuntary stomach muscles..... pained in delight ...... We all were laughing huddled in.... Our bamboo chairs...... And these looked like some Cocoon !
