Sorry Chocolate

Scene 1
He gets a chocolate... the elite Dairy Milk Silk. True to the ad... He takes an emotional trip to the day He threw her scrunchie into the commode. Comes out of his reverie & tells his mom... "Mama... this is going to be my Sorry Chocolate to Her. I will apologize for my behavior & share this with Her."
Mommy is all glowing with pride. After all, He is not sticking to the conventional Malayalee male image.

Scene 2
He walks into Her house. Both He & She barely acknowledges each others existence and walks in different directions. Meanwhile He casually tosses the 'Sorry Chocolate' around.
The Proud Mommy is now the Confused Mommy... What just happened???

Scene 3
We mommies get busy with our yapping... While it was time to leave, we mommies were confused about the status of the Sorry Chocolate. Did he give? Is he to take it back? Did he bring 2 chocolates?

Scene between 2 & 3
Apparently, while we were busy... He took that Chocolate & left it on Her study.

Scene 4
She {while his mommy was calling out to leave}: You left your chocolate.
He {As careless as he could be}: Its not mine.
She {I can vouch on Kiddo's life that I could hear a smug tone in her voice}: Then why are you leaving it here.
He {With all the arrogance a 9yr old could muster}: It is for you.
And they leave for the day...........

Ya ya! These Martian traits are demonstrated even at a very young age. Okok! Venusians are no better. Of course I can identify with this scene!!!!
Nobody said Sorry here...
Nobody acknowledged anything in front of the other...
Nobody is ever going to be caught feeling good about this entire episode....

Now... are they going to cling on their ego(or whatever) like we elders do? Or are they going to let go???

Oooo... I surely am going to watch this closely.... purely for academic reasons... ;-) O:-)
