1 Jan 2012. Nischal is 3.
He was spending time with his sushi ajji( grandma).. and dad/mom weren't around. Automatically he insisted with grandma that he wanted the TV on.
Ajji - willing to sell her soul for a hug & a kiss - readily turned it on.
Thankfully, while Chota bheem pranced on onscreen, nap time also hit. Our man's little eyelids were drooping. He would still hit surface occasionally to make sure nobody turned his precious TV off.
Unlike the all surrendering ajji, our visiting aunt Usha - a teacher - still had her conscience switch in the 'ON' position. She took the opportunity and cleverly turned off the fan, and then the TV.
The drooping eyes snapped open - " Who.. What .. Why ..? "
Usha aunty was clever - " No beta, the power has gone".
The little guy looked around to verify, and gave up. He went around the rooms for a little stroll, and then decided to join his already semi-napping ajji in the bedroom.
Ajji - unaware of Usha aunty's subterfuge - had her little stereo turned on with her bhajans singing her a lullaby.
Pat came the question: "How come the power is on here? The stereo is playing?"
While ajji scrambled for an answer, came Usha aunty to the rescue again " No beta, we've put batteries in it. Thats how its playing"
Satisfied, and after testing the bed thoroughly for its springiness, the little master fell asleep after 10-15 minutes.
