Melting Memories

I was fully absorbed in completing my English assignment. I had to find the synonyms and antonyms of words given by the class teacher, from dictionary.
Beside me, sonu, my younger sister was also trying efforts to concentrate in her homework.
We used to do our homework in our government quarter’s lawn.

She could not resist for long and asked,”Bhaiyya, he is late today!”

I nodded and sped writing with my kingson pen on the blank pages. It was half past six and we had been waiting for holler. It was hard to concentrate on our work. And then we heard that yowl, “Ice-cream Walle”. We close our note books and ran to wards main gate.
It was “Jugnu Bhaiyya”, the only ice-cream thela in the colony during school days. We used to wait for so eagerly because of 2 reasons.
One for the orange candy which was used for coloring of tongue and,
the other was more important that is for comics.

I started with “Chacha Chaudhary ***”, but later I did not find much interest in tales of his smartness. Then Nagraz and Supercommando Dhruv became my heroes.

During childhood also, I was more attracted towards curves of Visarpi (Nagraz’s girlfriend which resides in his body, man what a couple :) and Natasha (Dhruv’s girlfriend).

Later on Doga was another comic character who became a hero while struggling against all odds in his life and the cruel society.I have spent hundreds of hours reading them.And then thinking, analyzing all logics given for their existence and possibility.
I came to know about Archie and Tintin , very late.

Right now I am in a mall and enjoying the fig and honey combo of Baskins & Robbins. But I don’t enjoy it as I used to, the orange candy by “Jungnu Bhaiyya”.
Jugnu Bhaiyya died of throat cancer later in his life. But his impression will always be there in my mind. He has given us so many cool and sweet memories after all.

Chacha Chaudhary ka dimaag computer se bhi tez chalta hai :)
