It was a normal day, I was enjoying my school day like everytime. Then I realised that some of my friends are chit-chatting and enjoying without me. I entered their group, they were talking about some games, I didnt knew. I came to know that they were talking about computer games.
Days passed and their conversation turned more exciting. The group of these friends expanded, I was tempted to play computer games, but we didn't have computer at home, in those days.
Later some day,
I woke up, I started preparing to leave for my school. My mom prepared tiffin and gave it to me. I used to go by a rickshaw which was filled with children of different classes of my school.
I went to my class and like always I sat with my friends and they were planning and talking about games, I wanted to explore it but I couldn't understand everything they were speaking. So I kept asking where I had doubts, and after some time one of my friend yelled at me saying, "You dont have a computer than How will you understand? Go from here."
I felt bad as I didnt have a computer, but I wanted it somehow. I started asking and begging for it towards my mom.
At first she said no, but I didnt leave any chance of asking her to buy me a computer.
She agreed and bought the computer.
One fine day,
I came to know that she broke her fixed deposit which she had made from a life insurance policy after my father's death, to buy me a computer.
Until then,
I was very happy and enjoyed a lot playing games, I was a part of their group now and enjoyed playing with them. I never felt left alone.
But the thing I never realised is my mother was doing things way outside her limit to complete my crazy wishes. I never realised that I got the computer so never felt lonely, but I let my mom feel lonely after I had it. I enjoyed my time in computer at home and with friends at school. But I didnt realise that my mom was expecting me to come home after school and hug her tightly, talk to her about my day and spend time with her.
I didnt waste my time,
time cant be wasted,
what I wasted is my life.
I regret
And
I wish you wont have to regret. I hope you realise your mistakes on your own and dont have to face that one fine day...
