It was the early morning hrs of the day..
The man just about to open the tap of his bathroom wash basin, saw a small Black Tiny Creature busily moving at the bottom of the basin and he suddenly stopped that action saying within himself..
'Thank God! I acted timely.. Else the Tiny Creature would have been washed away in the stream of gushing waters to drain and further bottom down in no time ending it's existence instantaneously.. And knowingly, I have no right to do that where Mother Nature forever Protects..
Let me do my part of duty here and save it in the right time..
I should take it out from there and leave outside..
But, the problem here is.. Any touch would be too much for the Creature..
Then how to bring it out safely?
Yes! The better idea here is.. Try with a white paper.. A thin white paper kept near to it will help as the Busily Moving Creature would sure get on to that if I wait.. Then leaving it out would be easier.. Let me do this very important work first.. Rest can definitely wait!"
The man thus became busy and went to the next room to get a white paper so that the Black Tiny One could be seen clearly on that..
Meanwhile, his little girl got up from bed, came to the washbasin to have a wash and was about to turn the tap..
"Ooh! Dear! Wait for one sec.. Don't, don't open it.. I'm coming.."
The man shouted from behind and ran to the basin..
But no way.. That Message could not overshoot the girl's action followed by the man's helpless look down at the basin water gushing out with sudden force.. All instantly happened!
And the next moment....
The Tiny Little Black Creature busily moving in the white basin seen crystal clear under the bathroom bright light from above..
Instantly flew off beautifully from the basin escaping the dangerous gushing waters ready to smash it, flew further up and up and finally vanished from the Scene in no time!

Ha ha I would love to see the expression on the man's face. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Indrani for the nice Comment.. It's just fun too momentarily!
DeleteTruly said, Sir. Life is uncertain, and one needs to accept this fact to live happily. Joy lies in moments; who knows next moment one is going to be washed away for ever!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ravish.. Yes.. As you say life is just moment to moment.. But we always like extrapolations.. That's Human Nature.. Here alone, the continuous corrections are needed.. A good Comment on these Pages!
DeleteSo true sir... :-) lovely read!
ReplyDeleteThanks Archana.. Love the appreciation!
DeleteSo thoughtful of the man but the child's impulsive action was more effective. Sometimes things are better off on their own than by design. :-)
ReplyDeleteYes..You said that exactly.. I may plan meticulously but a few times a man without much planning may become a success much earlier to me.. God's Plans are equally varied.. Thanks Somali for the nice observation!
DeleteHappiness lies in moments and one should learn to live with that. A great read, Sir... :-) Totally enjoyed it...
ReplyDeleteI 100% agree with you, Maniparna.. Moments should really matter for us many times.. Too many Extrapolations are truly meaningless.. A nice Comment!
Delete:)
ReplyDeleteSweet story. Let's wish that that little thing has a long life.
Oh! Thanks Deepa.. I also feel that the Little thing be safe and have full life.. It was almost a practical Event!
DeleteSreedhar ji what a lovely story. Issue is with urbanisation, we are getting so scared of other living creatures. I very much fear that children are being brought up to be fearful of any other creatures
ReplyDeleteThanks Lataji.. Yes.. Urbanization should never lose sight of the sensitiveness that should be with us and especially with the growing children around towards the other life of the Planet Earth!
