That half an hour.....


                                          Feb.14,a day of pleasure and enjoyment. People enjoy and cheer up with their love and celebrate Valentine. But ,for me, this Valentine was not as usual.
                                          It was 11.30 A.M. I was having my regular lunch and soon I realised that my doll, my love i not around. My two and half year old daughter was suddenly disappeared. Initially, I thought she would be playing nearby, because she would never go outside alone. So, I asked Mavshi, her care taker to find her out and kept continue to watch TV and enjoying food. But Mavshi returned empty handed and that made up shocked. Because, it was first experience when Mavshi couldn’t bring her back.
                                             At the same time, I left my launch and came out to search my daughter, Saee, her name. I nearly forget to wash my hands and drink water. The news of her disappearance spread like a wildfire in my neighbourhood. People gathered and fruitless discussion started. Some kind-hearted tried their level best to find her. Two school going girls brought their bicycle in search of my kid.
                                            My restlessness was increasing with every passing moment. Somebody asked me to inform police and suddenly, I felt my eyes drenched. What a pathetic moment is this? Should my doll search by police?or may be I can find her as soon as possible? Many questions knocking my brain, which were unanswerable. With out wearing any cloths on my body, I moved out to search her at every possible place. But in vein. She was any where. My sweetie was just disappeared. Callous mind started working negatively. It moved  me by reminding many incidences of kids kidnapping.
                                               Entire scenario was serious, every passing moment was increasing tension and all the people, specially women gathered there, were expressing their concern, that made me more worried.Everybody was suggesting to me to do this and that. Till then,every place where she possibly can go was searched out.
                                                More than half an hour was passed, but we were failed to get even s single clue of her whereabouts. In the some state of mind I rushed towards main road. And what a great sight I had! Just, some meters away I saw my doll. Shabby, feared and on the verge of cry Saee was coming back with one girl.”Oh dear!” I said and run towards her. Finally, I got my lost angel. I had picked her up and brought close to my heart
                                                  Now, it was a moment of celebration to me My Velentine was settled safely in my arms. I asked her-‘Beta, where did you go ?’, with out knowing the seriousness of the situation, she said, ‘I was going to see my Mama who has gone for duty....’
