Uma was, as always, on the road with her young'uns.
They lived in their van, she thought, some days.
Life, as it is now, she rationalized.
Driving on autopilot, she listened in on the conversation in the backseat.
Bindiya
now five, Nikhil seven, and Dev nine, were good little children and
buckled up always but simply had to talk even though Uma had asked them
to let her drive in peace. She also asked the children often to let her
R.I.P. (Read In Peace) so they had to pick and choose their battles with
Mom over "peace".They lived in their van, she thought, some days.
Life, as it is now, she rationalized.
Driving on autopilot, she listened in on the conversation in the backseat.
Uma : "God is everywhere."
Nikhil : "Where is he now?"
Bindiya : "God is a she."
Nikhil : "Where is he now?"
Bindiya : "God is a she."
Nikhil : "He".
Bindiya : "She !!"
Nikhil : "You think everything is a she."
Bindiya : "No I don't."
Nikhil : "Is a bus a she?"
Bindiya : "No."
Nikhil : "Is a lion a she?"
Bindiya : "No".
Nikhil : "Is the sun a she?"
Bindiya : "No".
Nikhil : "Is a piano a she?"
Bindiya : "I don't know, ha, ha !!"
Nikhil : "Is this book a she?"
Bindiya : "No".
Nikhil : "Am I a she?"
Bindiya : "Nooo".
Nikhil : "Are you a she?"
Bindiya : "Yes."
Nikhil : "Is God a she?"
Bindiya : "Yes."
Nikhil : "See I told you, you think everything is a she."
Bindiya : "What???"
