Aai

"Aai!", you shout for me. "Aai ga!", if I am not paying attention. That is the first word you said, when you were just five days old. When you were tired and hungry, and I took a bit longer than usual to come to you and offer you milk, "aai!"came out of your lips, and made my heart rend and rush to you.

Now you call everybody aai. Everybody, who you think is close to you and is of use to you. Anybody who will do stuff at your bidding. That is your dad, grandparents, maushi, our cook, Ashu, her mother. All except mama. He only, is your mama.
