Bhooli bisri batain

There are many things in life which do not have any impact but they are never forgotten.
Saza wa Jaza I was in class IV in Louisa Souls School, Aligarh UP India and my class teacher who was               English teacher as well, sometimes takes her class in sunshine( Lawn) during winter. I and one girl Razia was mostly honored to hold her hands  while she was seated on chair. The feeling and honor of  this chance was like we are on throne.
Once Amman was going to Numaish at 8 pm (Aligarh  annual exhibtions), I was also willing to accomny her  while I was studying (I was in Class three), Dadey slapped me and insisted to read your lesson first. I did it with tears then dadey had taken me to numaish with amman and given some special treat .

In those days one night I was insisting for something before sleep and Amman got angry and remarked  haramzada ( I was not aware what does it mean) but I replied Aap Haramzadi. Dadey (Amman's husband) got up and slapped (six to eight) on my cheaks with full force and was sent out side to sleep with Razi Bhai( cousin studying in BA in Aligarh University). I cried with tears for hours as it was a new thing and very painful. I still take it as fearsome-dream. But I could not figured out until today whether a child  was at fault for this punishment I did not salute Dadey & Amman in morning and did not talk to them, until Amman tried to convince me and I lodged my protest for being beaten so cruelly, Things were patched-up and I submit my apology to dadey in the evening and in return I was awarded with gift and nice things but I suffered with fever lasted for long time whether it was the consequence of this event or some viral but later it was found as severe condition of Typhoid fever.
In Aligarh once I  had infection in ankle due to mansoon rain which caused nasoor (deep roots of infection). Dadey used to take me to Surgeon Lekhraj Singh Private clinic at Lekhraj Singh road miles away from our home at Banna Devi, for dressing and treatment for months                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  One day the wound was cleaned with steel equipment, black blood and some white particle small worm type came out and then it was treated (burned)  with some acid, which later healed. The nurse was an anglo-Indian
 a bautiful young lady, gentle and soft spoken. She used to go daily on a lady cycle
