HEYYA DEAR BUDDY
Thathi Khara was not far from Amritsar and it was one of the most conveniently situated villages, right on the pucca metalled road. But the happy impulse which had inspired Mann Singh’s journey would have made any distance seem joyfully short. Although the shades of the evening were fast spreading and the tired tonga pony’s steps fell even more laboriously on the road, Mann Singh was not at all worried.
Mann Singh- a young army man on leave from his regiment, was going to his friend, Karam Singh’s village.
Many in Karam Singh’s village always kept inquiring from his father about his next leave. He was a hearty, friendly character. He had a most agreeable manner of speech and people loved to sit by his side and listen to his tales of war and adventure. He was not the only serving youth from that village there were others too. But when they came home they were at a loss for topics to make conversation with nobody cared to listen to him; nobody was interested.
“When do we get our canal water, next, Jaswant?” Asked the father after a rather prolonged dull interval.
“The day after tomorrow- at three O’ clock in the morning.”
This reference to time gave Mann Singh another opportunity to take up the thread of his talk. “Yes, Karam Singh in the army is at least spared this bother of rising so early. He loves his morning sleep and is always last among us there to get up.”
Mann Singh could talk of his friend ceaselessly, tirelessly; but even this last remark of his failed to arouse any visible interest among his audience.
The food came, there were special dishes made for him. Jaswant kept waving a fan as he ate. Mann Singh somewhat got over the feeling that he had not been shown much attention.
had heard that there was a bull which bore upon its head the burden of the whole earth. Karam Singh’s father appeared to him just another similar benevolent spirit which, though bent under its own oppressive load, was yet willing to share other people’s burdens.
