CONTEST: "The Keyword of the Week/gobbledegook"

This is a very short story, but you might keep it in my wading through or gobbledegook. No, I am not doing it unintentionally, but I have to participate in the contest, "The Keyword of the Week." The keyword is going to be "gobbledegook".

Please read on, and when you feel bored, stop and blame @weisser-rabe.

Have you heard about universal mothers across the world saving small amounts of money like a fiver in a box in their kitchen every now and then? Or maybe there is a much bigger story, but I have tried to make this story small by including this thing about the mother in the beginning. Just as big as businessmen build a huge business in a particular area by calling that useless food called maggie, ready in two minutes, and they call it as good a food as cooked by mothers. Crap, nonsense!!!

Here is the story of a home with a very small skylight through which as much sunlight as the universe is filtering and falling on the glasses of that 54-year-old woman. The rays of sunlight falling on the glasses do not reach inside her eyes but reflect like a rebellious youth, considering the surface of the glasses as the door of the house.

The rays go very far by kicking the glasses away from another woman, 85, sitting close to this 54-year-old middle-aged woman with white hair on her head.

This older woman is sitting in an old citizen care home, where this 54-year-old woman comes every day to take care of this old lady. Although there is no blood relationship between these two, this woman has been coming here to see this old woman for the last 10 years. These two didn't talk much, but when they did, they kept teasing each other.

Sometimes the old woman would just laugh at this middle-aged woman by saying that in our times, cars used to run on the roads. Even though we did not fly in the sky in those days, we used to reach on time wherever we had to go, but now, even if you fly, it takes you a lot of time to reach your destination.

On hearing this from the old woman, the middle-aged woman laughs every time and says, "Ma'am, there used to be very little road traffic at your time, but there is more air traffic now, and you know that we all have to refill our oxygen cylinder every hour. Next time, if I come here early without filling my oxygen cylinder, I will reach God Almighty midway.

Then who will give you a bath and wash your white hair? The 85-year-old woman did not say anything on this matter and just smiled. She could see the face of a smiling 30-year-old boy amidst the shimmering milky veil of her smile. After seeing this face, she would always get up from there and go to another room.

In that room, this boy is seen smiling in a picture on the wall. This boy would probably be 86 years old today and while smiling, if he had no denture, all his teeth would not be visible, but the same love and liveliness would still be visible on his face which was there 55 years ago.

On that day, 55 years ago, he had saved a 6-year-old girl from being hit by a bus on the road, but he himself could not save himself and died on the spot. That day, a 30-year-old woman shouted at that 6-year-old girl. As if this very girl had made that 30-year-old boy remain in the picture for years. The 30-year-old girl probably could not understand that day that this 30-year-old boy was actually a lover who was in love with a person who would wait for him for the next five decades. Even from the 6-year-old unknown girl whom he had saved from getting under the bus.

That 30-year-old girl understood this when she was a 30-year-old girl. When the 30-year-old girl realized this, she wandered a lot in search of the 6-year-old girl. She had realized that that smiling 30-year-old boy might or might not be stuck in the smile of that girl. The 30-year-old girl searched a lot for the 6-year-old girl but could not find her. How can they even meet? That 6-year-old girl was in another country, and she knew nothing about this old lady.

Note for readers- now this is up to you to try and understand the meaning of my story 😎
