Sometimes children can trap you with your own words. Ash is one kid who wont touch bananas, which doesnt really bother us because a couple or two doctors said that bananas are not suitable for people with eczema.
Mira loves bananas and guavas while Ash prefers papayas and grapes. So there is not much conflict of fruits at home except when Mira takes a fancy to Ash's favorites.
The other day, as V gauded a constipated Mira to take 2-3 Kerala poovans at a go by telling her that it will help improve her complexion, he asked Ash to try one too if he wanted to become fairer. He told him that the secret for his cousin Minu's fair skin was a banana a day.
"Does her father eat bananas too?" Ash asked.
Yes, said V to stress his theory.
"Then how come he is so black?"
V was stumped. And Ash was spared of a banana ordeal.
When a child is born, so is a mother... A working mother's growing up years with her two children.
