Raj couldn't control his tears. It was the worst possible thing which could have happened to him.. "She was my first love" - he wailed inconsolably.. He thought of all the good times they had spent together - all the mornings when he woke up in her smiling face, the lonely evenings in which she gave him company, their first visit to the beach, the smile on her face when he told her that he had topped the class , the passion with which he argued with his sister when they chose a dress for her..everything.... "Tchh Tchh .. Dont cry beta .. We will find u a better companion" - consoled mom.. "No amma, she was my first love .. Remember the time when akka didn't like her and i had to convince her, remember how i felt angry when all the boys made fun of me 'going out' with her !! You think these moments would ever come back ??". His mom sighed .. "Yes, Dad could have been a little more careful. Such a love story coming to a premature climax !!. Dont worry beta, dad's pretty upset about it as well. I don't know what more to say !!".. "Hmm.." thought Raj, "like all love stories the parents(specially the dad) played the villain in this one too. Look at him, does he repent even a bit ??". His dad was chuckling - "Hey grow up beta .. How long will you play with her. Look at her, she's as old as you now.. A fourteen year old boy playing with a barbie doll.. He hee ... ". Raj sighed !! "Parents ...." he started sobbing again ...
