I barged through the front door, stumbled with my keys - rang the bell..
"Merry Christmaaassss" I yelled - on auto pilot - Mavshi stared at me - Dead eyes, she did doubt my sanity and now i knew why. I smiled.
" Bache kaha hai?" (Where are the kids)
She pointed towards their room - Electrocution this time was guaranteed
I knocked.
Mavshi was waiting in excitement - she was the one who'd love to see sinners go to hell and right now, it seemed she was viewing my judgment day - live.
I knocked again -
"Speak friend and you shall pass" yelled Agnes
(The lord of the rings analogy)
"Friend" i answered and opened the door.
The courtroom :
Lil : What kinda Santa arrives on the 27th of December?
Me: ummm
Ag: Did they not teach you in school that kids especially amazing girls with radical superpowers need to be kept happy
Me: Ag, there was work
Lil opened the bag i had
Lil: Santa got us chips.
Mavshi was at the door - she was giggling - i think this situation right here was her Christmas gift
Me: its 2 am in the morning - the medical shops had no chocolates
Ag: you buy gifts for your children from a medical shop
Me: we will go out tomorrow and I'll buy whatever you want
Lil: Money, cannot buy you happiness Mr. Joshi - Christmas is when you spend time with your family
Ag: Now i think he has married some random chick and is spending time with her?
Lil : i think so to Agnes, he is tired of us
Me: don't do this kids - i promise - tomorrow is the new 25th
(They make me feel so stupid)
I'm sorry - i thot we'll have chips, I'll make you guys cold coffee and some pasta and we'll have a Hobbit megathon.
I admitted my guilt and was waiting for the verdict. It started in two minutes.
Lil: No office for the rest of the year
Ag: No fone calls for the rest of the year, tell your girl friends you have kids
Me : Ok
They made me type the email for office leaves, hid my phone - i did have to make pasta and coffee, made tea for Mavshi
"Late zhala aahe, tumhala zophaicha nai" i asked her ( it's late dont you have to sleep)
"Its new years weekend kid" she said
The kids were teaching Mavshi English and i was impressed.
Hobbit started - two kids in two arms - hot coffee and pasta, and Christmas chips of course - Mavshi on her arm chair - snoring.
Ag: We are still mad at you, but the coffee is good
3 am on the 28th morning.
Christmas is when you want it to be.
Happy Christmas
