The Finger
I spot her in the crowd...run to her.
"Kitni umar hain bacche ki?"
No reply....she just showed me the finger.
I spot him in the crowd. His eyes meet mine...he nods...and shows me the finger.
Ahh....thats how the days are in the life of a "Pulse Polio" intern.
[For the uninitiated, any kid who has recieved the Polio vaccine on the immunisation day gets a mark on his little finger, to identify the unvaccinated ones.]

Faith
She was deft at dumping work on the world....she behaved as if she was the only one who had exams....I did my work sincerely. Never shirked. I was eager lo learn.
I don't deny she studied. And I don't deny I didn't.
She cracked the exams...I didn't.
I know ONLY hard work pays in the end...but somehow I still believed in natural justice.......
