Piku goes to America


Of late, we have been avoiding overreacting to his misdeeds in public; and somehow Piku became aware of this. However, we weren't aware of his awareness until we boarded the flight to US.

As soon as we got to our seats (we just got there, weren't even seated), Piku started showing his true colours.

"Don't put my bag in that cabin, put it here".
"Beta, there is..."
"Nooooooo... my bag....." (he didn't even let me finish my sentence "Beta, there is...not enough room.... ")

Seeing many heads turning to find out the source of noise, I quickly moved his smaller bag to a large cabin and stuffed my bag into a relatively small one.
I had barely sat down when one of the air hostess came and spoke with certain displeasure "Sir, your bag is too large for that cabin"; and then promptly swapped the bags.

I just sat there quietly, feeling somewhat insulted and somewhat frustrated that this time Piku didn't complain about his bag.
However, as soon as she was out of sight I heard:
"Waaaaaa... my bag......."
"Piku, my bag is too big for that cabin" I tried to explain (साम)
"Why did you move my bag?"
"Aunty ne kiya.. .look she did that"... Ankita came to rescue, pointing towards the air hostess.
"I want it back"
"Sit down quietly otherwise... " I took the usual route (दंड)
"Waaaaaaa.............."
"Shhh... she will get us down (भय)..." I changed my tone
"Waaaaaaa.............."
"Achha dekho ye kya hai... arey ye to remote hai (दाम)... isse video game... " I bit my tongue for what I was about to say.

"Video GAME!!!!!... mujhe khelna hai" ... I was too late for biting my tongue; damage was already done..
So, I tried to handle the situation and said: "Wait, till the plane takes off... right now it is turned off... "
"Nahi... Abhiiiiiiiiii khelna hai.... "

It was enough for me. I said "Piku, behave your self. Otherwise you'll get a SLAP".

Without missing a beat, Piku replied " and you will get JAIL"!!!

hahaha, Gul paji, wonderful.
Remember US laws are different than India in concern of children ;).

So using words "you'll get a SLAP" in public might be dangerous :)

@Avi - Be scared, because there is more to come :D
@Shailu - Before posting, I had already verified. Punishing a child is discouraged in US; but it's not against law ;)
