Crowded Silence

Tea Time

Heard this once....

While I was a child, I loved having breakfast. We always had milk tea with bread. And then one day I noticed, bread was missing. I waited till my tea cooled down, however, it did not arrive. Hence, I finished my now cold tea and left for school. After sometime, I again noticed that my cup contained black tea without milk. I did not complain and finished my tea and left for school......
That time I did not understand, but now I realize: this is the exact picture of poverty in middle class families. Every now and then, children will experience the absence of one or two item they enjoy missing from dinning table.
I hope, this lockdown may not be too harsh upon those families....
