Childhood!

Ice-cream

With my curly light brown hair tied in two braids. I was unaware about the plan our teachers had. It was 2007, I was in class 1.

They took us for a trip to some place (I don't exactly remember). I forgot to keep any money with me.

In the midst of the day, scorching sun, as far as my memory recalls, it was July/August & the place was all green and covered with grass..... "Memory gap"

I remember I was really hungry, thirsty & tired. After having some large chunk of amusement, I could see myself alone. Being a popular kid, I had many friends. Everyone called me his friend basically.

A moment later, I was watching everyone else eat & being a little shy as I am, I couldn't manifest my hunger and acted as if I'm completely filled & I don't need anything.

*Deep down I was starving as it was already 3 & all I had was a breakfast*

There came an ice-cream man. Everyone ran to buy, I couldn't *with my mouth all watery* I sat somewhere watching everyone buy and enjoy ice-cream. Later, when that ice-cream man was about to leave and already started moving, I found 20 rupees from the grass, I assumed it was that uncle's. So I ran towards him, stopping him, *memory gap" I remember something like, I made him stop from the other side of a grill, he came to me, I gave him the money, saying, "you dropped this note" & to my shock, my amusement, he gave me an ice-cream for free.

That little thing felt so good. I was so glad. That I came back running, told about that to my classmates & shared that little ice-cream with the maximum acquaintances I had.

Idk why & how, but this thing is just so cute & I can't get over it.
