I was the “ugly
betty” of my class. Light brown, plastic-rimmed, thickest Gandhi lenses.
I would leave them
for the last. And forget wearing them. Intentionally, ofcourse!
My sister, ever-the-punctual,
would not wait for me to run back home.
Since I would
not be wearing my set-of-eyes, my class-teacher would genially allow me to
swap seats. And I loved front-rows.
But parents are witty
enough. Been there, done it all kinda witty.
They got a
glasses-holder string and down it went my neck along with the school-tie.
Problem solved.
And, specs? Oh well,
am at home with them. And heart.
