A good read. 1 thing funny about this story is the stubburness of the child; I never remember myself resisting so much the pressure for being ``distinctive``. My words - its typical to Indo pak culture that parenrts supress their child`s youth in order to make him distinctive in sosiety. Well! for the rest of our life, we strive hard to be competitive, distinctive and compliant to social standards.

I`m having second thoughts now Mr. Ahuja. You really need to improve your writing style! Your stories are nice but they`re not written properly.

This seems more like notes scratched on a napkin for a story; in which case the bad grammar may be excused.
