Inspiration

The sun that day was really bright and so bright that it seemed it peeped through the windows.. with all its exuberant brightness.. Roma opened the sliding door with full strength so that the sun light can gulp their drawing room and also their pet dog Doggo kupper will have a stroll in the courtyard..

With a book in hand Roma remembered how she haven’t met her parternal grandfather ever. But his words, values of life, implications and morality was always there with her… She has always listened to his story …

One morning Roma’s grandfather.. rode his cycle very quickly to reach his own sweet shop. His own. This phrase itself ignited a spirit of solitude to Roma.. to boost herself to do something by her own… He reached the shop and prayed to almighty and opened the shutters .. broomed the outside of the shop and starting off his day by changing his shirt to dipping the maida in water making the dough and other necessities for the sweet making process..

It was his daily process .

He never felt tired to go to work but he felt tired in the time of pointless arguments which people used to put for him.

His sole journey was to feed his six children and aiming towards his own goal of building something. A sweet shop.

Roma remembered how she has heard that he could recite poets all across the globe being little educated. How beautiful his everyday looked. Aiming to built his own emperor of sweet shop.

Roma unknowingly knew she wanted to become someone like him. Always.

Tears rolled down from her cheeks and with the cold temptation helped her to be awake and accept the reality…

It was already 45 minutes that she was deep down thinking about her grandfather.

He has became her inspiration.

Her heart always wanted to be like him

She hurriedly woke up and moved to the kitchen to prepare the day’s lunch…
