We are an unknown couple
We would remain as that for ever
But we had silently brought up our children.
We never forced anything upon them though we hoped they would become doctors or engineers., the way of the world around us.
They had no interest for that.
We gave it up.
At every turn of their lives we were there.
We watched them grow into adults.
We knew they had to read if they had to survive.
They never showed any inclination to read.
We introduced English and Malayalam comics. We filled our house with heaps of them.
They were hooked. That took them to fiction and newspapers.
When they lagged we analysed the causes.
We went about it quietly.
We went on to correct ourselves and the children
They went after their passion.
They struggle, but lead good lives.
What else do we wish to see.
