Four Vadapv

It was a hungry time in the afternoon. I couldn't even eat due to the hustle and bustle of work, I hadn't even had breakfast. I entered the hotel and now I had a firm resolve to eat to my heart's content...


The hotel was crowded and I managed to find a seat. I ordered pav bhaji and vada pav from the waiter...


A family who seemed to be from the village came and sat on the bench in front. 


Parents and their cute son... They were clearly exhausted from shopping in the market. They signaled to the waiter... He came and started telling them the menu...


Before telling him what they wanted, the parents asked their son, "What's up, Dada, what will you eat?" Dada said with great joy, "Baba, I want a masala dosa." To this, Baba asked the waiter, "How much is a dosa?" The waiter said, "Dosa 70₹". Baba got worried. He signaled to his wife. Dada was really happy to get to eat a masala dosa. 


 Mother persuaded Dada, "Dada, let's eat masala dosa later, today I will eat vada pav..." 


Dada's face became worth seeing... Then Baba said "Dada, dosa is very expensive"


I was watching the whole incident silently. 


Dada sat down but immediately said "Baba, I will eat two vada pavs." Baba smiled and ordered 4 vada pavs from the waiter.


Khichdi was starting in my mind. How understanding they are all. 


On the one hand, I eat whatever I want in the hotel every day. After this incident, I firmly decided to go to the hotel but not to eat so much that my stomach will burst. I don't want to waste money unnecessarily. 


Baba, Dada and Mother opened my eyes. This incident, however, made a home in my mind...
