Plant a Tree

As she turned off, I had a bupkis intention about her. David and Dhruv yelled as wolves. Geshu and khushi impeld them and they fell down like apples on Newton's head. 

A Chucklesome environment whirled as she approached us. She went towards the opposite wall of us. We didn't have rays from the moon either. I found the reason why The moon borrowed rays from the sun. He wants to glitter earth. 

But within seconds our faces were glittering like stars. We can't handle the beauty. Everyone was merry-merry. Whole surrounding is covered with balloons and glitter. 

It's like icing on the cake. 

It's very archetypal for me to acknowledge what's going on. She whooped tickets for enjoyment. After she called early in the morning on Sunday. I doubted my mother only. If she is kidnapped and one standing in front of us was her clone ! Very confusing 

"Let's enjoy till it becomes dark '',she says with hesitation. I am full from tearing my eyes. She never differentiate between principal and mother. Whenever I am in need of my mother I use my notebook and pen. It's very blithe for me and my heart. David and Geshu squabble for sitting position; Khushi for settling down sit in between. I widened my eyes in thought that had meaning or it also vanished with time. 

Instantly, she started playing music. In a frolic environment everyone is trying to caper but Dhruv energetically holds hands of mom and dances together. I wanted to record but couldn't. She wants us to feel stressless but it's not the lungs who can stretch, it's the heart who is able to melt with love and emotions. 

It's fragrance also befuddled my brain. We all are facsimiles of drinkers. I can't imagine myself in the way I had. As I got used to it again, a strike of politeness came. 

She stopped the music after an hour. She played very silent music. Everyone enjoyed it like they used to follow," Every moment of life in need of love". I wanted to dance but this time on the sound of meditation my face felt down. We all are puppets of her. She used it from the beginning and it remains the same.

Seeing the walls made me more happy, but who knows that it won't last forever. She says, " Let's stop the game".

She steps towards me and says, " Just close your eyes". This time we all thought that she was going to lecture us again on meditation. 

Within a second she says to open our eyes.

Aroma completely changes all around only different machines, satellites, rockets, crops and different images of scientists who I have never seen till now anywhere. 

David, " What's all this rubbish ma'am, we already learnt some of them and remaining we don't want to, we can't do this time".

She replied to him, " I am dissatisfied with you all, I made you in this place just not because it's my dream. Please listen to me carefully". We all just stand as we all are guilty of some unknown crime. 

Dhruv didn't stand properly. He inclined left and right so geshu propelled on his knee, as mom was standing in front he wasn't able to shout. David tries to capture some scenes of them but he can't. Her words made my heart freaking as I wasn't able to understand, different kinds of feelings tightening my heart. 

Khushi kept her book aside but it fell on David. 

 I was petrified from the radiation of the poster on the wall, that I can't look closely. I truthfully wanted to stabilise myself but nothing works so, I just close my eyes as I do in prayers. I can't understand what's going on in front of everyone. We all are waiting to inform us 

She started, " It's just not a story but the reality of you all. You all think that it's a coincidence of your friendship. In reality nothing seems so easy, it's not your page that whatever you wrote became your future. In reality none of you belong to this city".

"I always thought to let you know about your motive for survival, but earlier your conversation of foreign study made me sad. I planned your holiday because now you don't have time to eat properly. Whatever I am going to inform made you insane. So please don't take me wrong and yes I am not cloned", she says pointing at me. Yes of course she is my mom. We can't hide your heart from them. I loved my mom too. 

"In 1985, my love Reyansh became the head of team WHEAT. Team WHEAT had seven members. It's very time consuming so I just introduced you to all the members first and rest we will continue" She says happily but inner her makes her frustrated. Still also she can't decide whether she should let us know or not. We all are just listening and very confused that none of us knew about our past. Not even knowing the job of our father. Our all eyes saw her too deeply and Dhruv had little tears in eyes. We all can't have a single foggy memory of them. 

She continues, " Reyansh as team head he was very disciplined and very attentive. David's father was Mr. Oliver. We all called him a stress remover. Geshu's father Mr. Daniel is also a member and I am one of them. In our team two twins also there as Nitin and Ritik. Nitin is the elder one and the younger one used to be funny and clumsy. Khushi at that time, I don't know about your father as I am new in that team. They all belonged to horticulture but I am from floriculture. So it's very hard for me to learn all of a sudden.Government in improving agriculture they made all lot's of departments and in a department all lot's of teams were made at the time and the winner of the team in a department was going to go further and we all are one from the competition. Khushi, your mother, was head of our department. For us she was completely helpless and Reyansh also didn't accept anything from her". 

Her words imprint on the heart. What she said to David and Khushi: was to know more and more. It's very common. I was happy that my father was team head but I knew for the first time that my mother was also a scientist, then how she became principal of this college.

"The motive of our team is to maintain the germination percentage of crops. Germination percentage means on growing crops every year seed germination capacity decreases and all farmers in need to purchase hybrid seed which are increasing foreign companies or they use chemical fertilisers to gain the same profit they used to. Government wants us to introduce a way so that farmers easily gain profit as they used to by growing seeds of the same crops. I am a weak part of the team. I used to give my 100 percent but it was useless", she says. I think she betrayed her team, that's why she feels more pressured. 

It's dusk and we had a sedentary position so we just asked her to continue later. All other standing and stretching hands as they did too much manual work,only by sitting. She says that, " You all just go, today I had some work so I just came a little late".

In the corridor we are all just trying to understand what can happen after that… 

I told everyone to ask about this from their mother and also search for an old family album that any pick from the background of walls matches with them. 

David says, " Please don't ask from mom, it's not good to disturb them. Geshu also agreed on it so we decided to gain any information without their knowledge. But one thing that is still very confusing is how busy we are going to be.
