Wise Daughter

 

Mr and Mrs Gupta are my next door neighbours. They have one daughter Radha. Radha was my brilliant student in my school.

Since childhood, Radha daughter of Mr and Mrs Gupta had one peculiar habit —

About 4–5 days before her birthday, she would start asking,

“Papa and mom, did you buy the gift  for my birthday?"

Mr and  Mrs Gupta would smile and shake their head, saying no.

Radha would yell in anger.

But on her birthday, when she would  get a surprise gift, from her parents her happiness would knew no bounds!

This time, Radha was at her in-laws’ home.

Still, Mr and Mrs Gupta bought a gift and went to her in -laws house, intending to surprise Radha on her birthday.

Quietly, they entered the house .Up to their surprise from inside, they could hear Radha crying, and her husband and mother-in-law arguing loudly.

Mrs Gupta said " Madam my  heart sank. Heavy-hearted, we turned around and walked away. Standing on the main road outside, we called Radha through mobile phone and expressed our wish to visit her."

She replied,

“Papa, mom please donot come today . We’re going out for dinner —my parent in laws and my husband are celebrating my birth day .We all are going  for dinner outside. After all it’s my birthday today."

I said "Madam Gupta, your daughter Radha , who once seemed so delicate yet stubborn, how much she  has changed with time…"

I further said "Mrs Gupta please do   not worry about Radha.With time things will improve.These small  happenings  here and there are little human errors in woman's life which make her strong  perfect daughter  and daughter in law.You should  feel proud of Radha."

Mrs Gupta did not utter a single word but tears rolled down her cheeks.Are you also wise daughter?

Moral - Human emotions change  with respect to time.
