Yesterday I was talking to a child patient at my clinic.. This is for the 3rd time that I've met her along with her mother and as such she is quite friendly with me.. She is a student of 3rd Standard and the way she talks, you won't have any other option, but to love her.. I asked her about her school ..
She replied, "Actually Sir, school is closed these days on the occasion of Bihu.. But will reopen from 22nd.."
I said, "Okay... then I'll also attend your school from 22nd.."
She asked me, "Will you be there to teach us something?"
"No, I'll be there to study with you..."
She remained thoughtful for a moment and then replied with a cute smile,
"One problem might be there .. Most probably they (teachers) won't allow you to join my class.. You are somewhat older you know... But you may join my brother.. He is in class 10..."
I couldn't say anything more.. I just smiled and lightly pecked her cheeks..
You know.. Thats the beauty of a conversation with a child... I agree, age never hinders study.. Yet, only a kid can so innocently say that I can still study in the same classroom along with the 15 year olds.. :-):-):-)
