It has been years since I had put on a raincoat.. around 20 yrs 2 be more precise.. :)
N it feels nice to put it on after such a long break.. brings bak the memories of gud ol' school daz.. ( KG daz actly.. :) )
My first raincoat ws a light pink color one with lots of small dark pink flowers n designs on it.. I stil remember the joy I had when I wore it for the first time, n I can recollect my luks also bk then.. :)
I ws a small kid with a chubby face ..
My mom used 2 mke me wear it so tat I dnt get drenched in the rains n get fever.. Even though it ws a small distance from my house to the gates where the Autorikshaw wud cme, she ws so particular abt it.. n I used 2 lik it a lot..
With th white shirt, blue pinnafore, red socks n ties n ribbon n a pair of black shoes, the uniform ws more than enuf for a KG student.. N on top of it I had my school bag, with lots of buks n snacks n lunch n al.. N a red colour water bottle with the name "Coca cola" printed on it in white colours. I used to wear it on my neck..
N on top of al dis thngs cmes the raincoat !!! 2 heavy 4 a kg kid, bt i usd 2 luv my raincoat..
N i usd 2 kp it evn aftr I grew bigger n older.. But dont know when it was lost.. maybe when I startd naggin my parents 4 the "rainbow" umbrella.. {( the 1 with al th colours on it), wch had th "switch" 2 open it, wth lots of plastic rings on th handle n al...}, they 'd thrown it out.. :(
N evn I had also thrown al thos memories ot of my mind sinc I dnt knw wen..
N nw, al of a suden, wen I gt my new raincoat.. thngs strtd cmin bak 2 my mind....Its a transparent, light green 1.. with sme self prints..
I laughed lik a kid wen I put it on, put on the hood also,'d a bike drive wth my hubby.. n stil I ws smilin.. I see people passin sme confusd or funny luk wen they c me in it.. mayb cz of the funny smile I'm havin at tat tim.. Bt guys, do u knw the joy I fl insid.. It has no reason .. bt jz fils my heart with sme simpl joy..
Luv ya,, my dear raincoat.. cz u jz mkes me fl gud.. :) :)
