#73 …when all of a sudden you find yourself listening to cheesy romantic songs.

It was after a long time that I was accompanying my Mom to her maiden home. As soon as we entered the house, we could hear faint sound of songs playing in some room.

“Rishta nahi hai dono ko phir bhi bandhe koi dor hai, 
Is dosti ko kya naam de hum ye baat kuch aur hai...”

I asked my granny who it was listening to those no.s. I was a little surprised to find my Mom’s younger brother at home and listening to some romantic no., that too at midday. I slipped in his room to find him dancing to the tunes with a pillow embraced near his heart. When I tapped him on his shoulders, he gave me a sheepish grin, threw the pillow on the bed and turned off the music. I immediately knew what was wrong with him. To save him further embarrassment, I switched on the music, handed him the pillow, gestured him to continue and slipped out of the room. For months afterward, I couldn’t help teasing him whenever I got the chance to.
