The Juicewala`s Grandson

One of the days in life , you meet someone and he makes you think about...

It was 6 in the evening, me and himanshu paid our regular visit to the juicewala baba at the corner of oracle. We spotted a bright looking kid , he was baba`s grandson.

Naam kya hai babu?

Akkash.....his name was akash and there was a smartness about him.His postures and his answers were very smart. We renamed him Jhakkas.
Jhakkas = great in our lingo.

We were talking to the kid, he must have been some 5 years of age.
we played with him and were asking questions , we were having fun.

then came this question from us `bada hoke kya banega beta??`

Pat came his reply `juicewala`

It struck me , for i didnt expect this answer. And it struck me even more that a bright kid as him was restricting his domain to becoming a juicewala.

We told him to study and offered his grandfather some guidance with respect to his studies.
It would be my pleasure to help that guy make a life of his.

I am not of the belief that selling juice is a bad or demeaning thing or any lesser than what i do or someone at ceo`s desk does.Only thing is , that kid has no choice it seemed. And that i protest.
