BEE GRAM


                            Rajesh woke up from his bed and walked into the bathroom and closed the door.He loosen the tap and water started started falling down. The bucket started to fill at a constant rate and he was just watching his red eyes in the mirror. The bucket was half full and a bee from the nearest woods came flying into his poorly ventilated bathroom. She came near Rajesh’s face and he just slapped the cute little cheek of the bee and she fell into the half filled bucket.Rajesh just hates flies and bees. Now he caught hold of the bucket with his slim arms and threw the water into the Indian commode and the poor bee had to get in, into the world of beautiful waste and deod shit. She closed her eyes when surrounded by water and once she entered into the beautiful tunnel, she found her wet body was floating in the water under the world. Since, she didn’t have any clothes to wear, she comforted herself nude. She tried flying but she couldn’t, she was swimming all the way long in a tunnel of shit ..

                                     So, one fine day Raheem a 9 year old kid was playing with his friends near a plot which was getting dressed up into a building, he picked up a stone which was his wrist size and started throwing it up and catching it, soon after his third trial his mother came to him shouting..

                                            ‘Raheeem!! My boy, just don’t catch that dirt.’ She took the stone and threw it away which eventually fell on the street and she took her kid into her arms and took him home.

                                                Rohan, a 16 year old boy came from the other end and started kicking the stone and took it all long his home and when he reached home, he kicked the stone into the manhole he saw beside him.

                                                     Now, the she bee who was very lucky to find a stone in that tunnel and it was the stone which Raheem played with and Rohan kicked it all long his home. She somehow managed to get hold of it and stayed there for a while until her wings dried down. She was breathing hard and her little body was suffering a lot.

                                                          After a while, the bee….Let’s name her GRAM... Gram found her wings dried and she started flying in search of a beam of light, where she could enter into the human world where she could find her family members, she was very afraid and she never wanted to die. For a fun fact Gram is an atheist. She never believed in God.

                                                             If I manage to get out of here and anyway enter into my world, I will go, get a petal of flower and propose my dear KG and I’ll apologise SWEET for fighting with him, the other day for a place i the comb and I’ll say my parents how much I loved them and I promise myself that I’ll revolve round the globe before I die. One single beam of light and I’ll have my new beginning...ONE FU****G LIGHT RAY!! She said to herself while tears were falling down from her eyes. She flew hard for more than 15 minutes and she was feeling real tired.

                                                                 Though she pushed her limits, she was about to give up and then she found a slim beam of light falling on the upper layer of water from the top of manhole, her eyes were wide open and the wings started to blaze, heart started to beat heavily and eyes were now filled with tears but of happiness this time. She started flying hard to the top and finally reached the bottom and she was exactly in the center of a very busy street and vehicles were moving very fast on her, it took her 2 minutes to get away from the road and took 10 minutes to figure where she had to go to reach her home. She found it out and in her path she entered a home where a kid was playing with his Iron man toy, he was Raheem, the same boy who played with the stone and his mother slapped her and she fell on the road, she woke up shaking her head and found KG moving into the next lane and she started flying to him and Rohan clapped his hands in between his hands, and the stinger was injected to his hand and he split his hands, she was found unconscious in his hands, his friend Michele slapped him and ordered him to apologize the bee and he did exactly the same as he was loving her. A drop of tear fell from the bee on the hands of Rohan and Rohan could sense it which made him regret clapping at her. Michelle dug a small grave in her garden and covered it in the grave. By the time KG came to the spot, it was all over, he cried for weeks and he along with his family and friends built a comb in the garden just to watch their bud everyday.

                                                      GRAM was proud while she sensed she's dying, not because she made a decision that killed her, it's because she at least didn't give up!
