Up-ple's AfterMath (season one)

APPLE (if u could please pronounce ap="up") you will get a better thrill in knowing my next door tobacco tooth five year old. Apparently he has fine visible layer of tobacco lining stretching across his left upper canines to right canines. Grrr..

I don't hate kids, I just don't like who look like coming from some remote area(not counting the one who actually come from there), always crying, And mind you these half absent-minded dumbest of the lot don't just cry they cry like there's some WIN-WIN contest. No matter how much they are looked after, how many nannies they have they will keep on crying for no apparent reason what so ever. Babies especially around one or two years could be bafflingly stupidest. and if by any chance two of them are together and any one of them blows in, starts crying, then mercy be it the other baby will start crying too. There has to be some end to this nerving obsession of being irritatin!!.

Coming back to Up-ple and his crow nosed granny. Well she is the one who must have taught how should UP-ple behave with their next door neighbours (us). Like to ask for everything :
1) they might have seen in OUR hands.
2) they already have (probably they don't want to disturb their stock.. bahhh !!)
3) they smell something made at our place and ring and start saying "oh! I thought where is this nice smell coming from. Followed by her you-are-our best neighbour patting at my mothers shoulder" rest is obvious, my mum provides them with it.

Most recently even Up-ple has been doing the same. He got named Up-ple after one of the frustratingly-bafflingly-annoying incident.
His body language is so like that. Dude!! he can be a personal begging-instructor someday(a carrier choice). Keeping one hand at the back of his head, scratching(I HATE YOU Up-ple) and making his orangutan like eyes(surprisingly he is cute and is not crow nosed) spread and asking my mum "aunti(he doesnt say the auntY's Y properly and limit it to I) apple de do(give me apple)" !!

Oh god! DAM! DAM! DAM. He gets on my nerves.

As Up-ple is such rock-star in my neighbourhood, he hasn't limited his activities to just ask for apples. Like one of the times when I thought, "I should think like a grown up and may be give him a bit of freedom of stupidity (that every child is born with). I should ignore when he touches some crazy extremities, very inclusive where is his eating habits". So i tried to be nice to Up-ple, The prospective points to be kept in my mind by me were :
1) I would pass him a smile(which he ignored).
2) If coming from somewhere and if I get to see him lurking around our door(or probably sniffing for some food at our palce.. Grrr WHO KNOWS!) I would say a hi and try to play. (which he ignored) May be I should learn how to be practical from him!

Oh Up-Ple why were you born? (In my neighbourhood.)

"Upple has a bright future", as my mum says "because" he is playing with girls of his age(trust me they are not as stupid as him, a little bit even they are.)
"So?"
"So boys get a better understanding of girls and that makes them even more.. you know..??"
"No i don't tell me?"
(shifts a bit) "that makes them even more smart"
shuts up!..
No! No! No!
Or may be
Yes! yes! yes
May be someday he turns out to be really smart and I will tell his visitors friends what crap he was? :D

So Up-ple even has Girlfriends, so one of the days (when i had granted him to be stupid around me) I stopped right in front of him (he was on his bicycle , moving ahead with his head turned back) Oh how irritating you are Up-ple!!
I asked him has he seen milli’s sister around?
“nnghhh”
(there are two mili's Jr Mili and Sr. Mili(no sister connection), Sr mili is my friend and Jr. is Up-ple's).
I said to myself "I saw her sometimes back, Now where has she gone?"
There went Up-ple, crying like total retards!
Over what?
well Up-ple : "Mili meri friend hai(Mili is my friend waaaiiiinnnnnn!!) "
(Embarrassingly, couple of aunts started staring at me. Oh Why up-ple why were you even born? I shot him a complete stop-crying-else-you-might-just-remember-forever-what-date-it-was-today look!) and said "err okhay and almost ran from their" !!

The adventures of Up-ple can't be resisted by me to be penned down. So may be i will make a big blog dedicated to him!!!!

To be concluded..

Thanks Gunjan for commenting on my blog. It is defiantly how my family and friends keep in touch and how we meet new people like you :) I have to admit, I am awful about remembering to update the blog these days…I will try to be better.

You are a beautiful writer, I can’t even imagine putting words together the way you do in your poems. Also, are you a photographer? You have some great pictures on your blog, and I was wondering if you took them?
