Kids

There are 2 kids who live in the same building as I, and a cousin of theirs who visits them. I have been giving bike rides to the boy and been playing with the girl kid for sometime now. But the stronger bond has been through chocolates. So much so that I stock chocolates and toffees for them and indeed ration those so that it'd make the kids keep coming to me regularly. This is such a typical story of the 'uncle in the building' who gives chocolates and plays with them, nothing different. But the 'uncle' addressing hurts a bit to which the boy sometimes sensitively changes his adress to 'anna' :D

A friend once told me, "Tendancy to want to spend more time with kids is harmonal change and thus a factor of age". If thats true, then I've definitely aged into the next phase of life.

I've lived in a lots of apartments past 5 years but these little ones will be first set of neighbours whom I'll miss after I move out of the building next month. Thank you Dhanush and Prerna and their cousin Bhoomika.
