That first KISS on LIPS, unable to forget!

that first KISS on my Lips !!! 👄

Mother is the best friend...

My dear and only daughter, 

Ranu  was growing day by day, 

and also going away from me day by day. 

I had started suspecting that my importance is slowly, but surely diminishing in Ranu's life. My reserved space in her heart is becoming smaller, and taken away by her friends. She was getting annoyed with me for very small things. For hours, she kept herself locked in her room after verbal fight with me. It has become rituals,  happening daily!

Once, I fall sick, became weak and forced to rest. Unable to look after our kitchen. Ranu had yet to get fully cquainted with cooking. It was blessings in disguise for me.  She now understood the value of a good cooked recipes and also staying near to me. 

As the night fall by, she was almost exhausted. She streached herself on nearby single sofa in my bedroom with her study book in her hands. But I knew she was not reading, she was thinking and sadness on her face was clearly visible. My 'sweet sixteen' daughter looked upset since her last birthday. She had arranged her birthday party with her friends for the first time away from our home on the hotel terrace garden.

"Ranu bete, come here,.... sit" 

She came and sat next to my pillow. My hand went on his head. Slowly,  my fingers were moving in her soft silky hair. Suddenly, she started to cry. I did not ask anything, but continued my fingers to move with love, directly flowing to her head and then to her heart. I was for sure, that she would likely to open up.

"Mamma, please forgive me.., I should have told you before......"  After a long pause and gulping saliva, she whispered " but I was scared and nervous, I thought you will be angry and also get hurt..”

I slowed down with my fingers and shifted to reach back of her neck, caressing gently.  I still did not utter a word, gave her enough time to speak out. She knew I am listening and waiting.

She almost unaudible, “ Mom on my birth day, Sanju forcibly kissed me, yes; mamma, on my lips” “It was Birthday kiss, but on my Lips ”

She waited for few moments to take deep breath and looked down first and then towards ceiling, “Earlier also he was passing me hints to be with him. But I ignored him always.”  “Mamma I am not able to concentrate on my study, since this happened. I am feeling embarssed in class looking at him. What, if I fail in my exams?”

It was now my turn to calm her down. I kissed on her cheek and smiled, “Oh, that is bothering you so much, since your birthday!”

“Now that you have already shared with me, so forget it, it happens some time during teenage! Don't worry.”

I gave a minute to let my words sink in her. I pulled her closely in my arms “ Do you like Sanju?”

She suddenly turned and became face to face with me, “ NO! no, mamma!” “ He is just like one of our friend in our group, so we do spend time together.”

Then she become emotional in my arms for quite some time, kissed me, "Thank you mamma for understanding me, I love you! " 

She slept next to me feeling the warth of love together. Since then my daughter confided in me about her all friends, including boys. I was happy to see her becoming normal. She passed her exams with 82%, not so happy, but its ok. She got her admission in other city and stayed at hostel with confidence to handle her life independently.

She still discusses her secrets with me over phone. Even once again Sanju tried to reach her via her friend. But, Ranu handled it on her own and firmly and politely said 'NO' for any further physical relationship.
