Cotton candy

No privacy room in office, so had to run on the rooftop as i got a call from home. It was month of april, i dont remember rain in the month of april bt today it was. It was a mild rain, as i finished my talk i stayed on the roof for a while.

Enjoying the dampen smell of everything from rain. I like that kibd of smell. Far down on the road i saw a boy selling cotton candy walking. He looked tired and happy at the same time. Mabe today he had a good sale. His cotton candy stick was almost empty. Mabe he would get extra bonus today. I was thinking of such thoughts when suddenly 2 dogs 1 black n 1 brown came on to him. The boy instinctively guarded himself using the same cotton candy stick. He was petrified. I was petrified.

The fact that child labour was already making me sad then this happens. My hear squeezed like a piece of sponge. I had this urge to go down and help him in some way. However some other boy of same age was brave enough an helped him. Later i found the 2nd boy had befriended those 2 dogs. And the 2 boys shared a happy glance and crossed away to their separate paths.

Here we can learn 3 things;
1. Child labour in Nepal has become normal, which is quute abnormal.
2. The cotton candy boy was courageous and idnt mean he was scared i mean he did what he could. Life has taught him to deal with the situation.
3. The boy who helped him, the way he did it. Mabe if i were in his place i would have throughen a stone but to my surprize he befriended him and ended up grabbing and playing with him. Humm mabe he was already friends of the dog. If thats true this would bot be a lession.
