Priceless feelings: Enlightened by the younger one...

Few moments back I called my younger brother... Someone else pickeked up the phone call...

"Sir' e operation kori ase.... Kindly alap pisat phone koribo neki baru?"
["Sir is busy doing an operation... Would you kindly call after sometime?"]

Probably my brother had handed over his phone to someone before entering the operation theatre...

It was for the first time that I got this kind of response while calling him... Somehow it made me nostalgic and reminded me of the very first innocent question I asked my father after seeing my brother in the hospital for the first time after his birth,

"Papa, bhaity' e saku duta nukhhulei dekhun..."
["Papa, why doesn't bhaity open his eyes?"]

At that time I too was a little kid... Most of my childhood memories have gradually vanished, yet  certain things like this one are still intact down my memory lane... And the feel that my my 'that cute little brother' has grown up and that now he can even perform surgeries made me silently smile...And that feeling is just priceless!!!
