As the teacher episode finished, I started concentrating on my studies. Math was a bit problem but I was doing well in other subjects especially in English. In the summer vacations we would visit to our Grandfather’s house in Agra. We call grandfather Baba.
Baba had a very big house, just like an ancient mansions. The house was located in the open field surrounded by the big Neem and Mango trees. When we entered into the house there was a large courtyard, on both side of courtyard were the rooms. Baba, most of the day remained in his big room that is called the Baithak. There were many wooden selves in Baba”s room attached with the wall. In selves many old books, journals, multi volume sets were neatly kept.
Baba had participated in freedom struggle. He was full of stories of that period .He had worked with Gandhiji also. The time spent with Baba was favorite pastime. Baba would take us to the open, wheat, mustard and cauliflower fields. People would respect baba very much. Men and women both touch Baba”s legs just to offer their respects. I would keep a chair under the mango trees and read the storybooks. They were very old books but still interesting and engaging with a fragrance that normally we find in very old books. Days looked like passing in speed and summer vacation finished. We had to come back in Delhi and resume the study...................contd
