We were supposed to go to India - the whole family. And then my father freaked out. He woke up in the middle of the night (that’s what he told me) with some crazy thoughts and fears and decided that I am still too young for India; My mom will go without us. Well, they didn’t tell me this (she is leaving on Sunday) but I figured it out. So last night I asked my mom “are you going to India alone”? She looked quite surprised and said “yes; you know there are some little bugs that can bite you and dad and I are a little concerned for your health. Mommy will go alone to check it out but I will not go to see tigers and elephants without you and then if everything is OK we will go together”.”But mom, how can Bala [he is our Indian friend] deal with them (bugs)?”. Mom was surprised again, she was looking for words ... “well” she said “he lives in India and he is used to those little bugs ...” “Oh, I see, OK”.
