I remember our childhood dayswhen life was easyand math problems hard.Mom would help us with our homeworkand dad was not at home but at work.After our chores, wed go to the old fort museum with clips in our hair and pure joy in our hearts.You, sister, wore the bangles thatyou, brother, got as a prize from the Dentist.Why the bangles? the Dentist asked, surprised, for boys picked the stickers of cars instead.Theyre for my sisters, you said.Mom would treat us to a bottle of Coke,a few sips each. Then,wed buy the sweet smelling bread from the same white vanand hand-in-hand,wed walk to our small flat above the restaurant.I remember our childhood days.Do you remember them too?
