Keshav's second ambition

Little did I know how right Papa would be.

Less than 1-2 weeks after announcing my ambition to be a Pilot, I promptly declared that I now wanted to be a Doctor.

It all started with the costume-day in school. Mummy tried very hard to think of ideas to dress me up. Most of them, however, seemed very difficult in practice. So finally, she fell for the easy option of buying me a doctor Coat and handing me my doctor set and sending me to school as Doctor Keshav.

I really liked the idea. As soon as I got back home, I announced to Mummy that I wanted to become a Doctor.

"What will you do as a Doctor, Keshav?" Mummy asked.

"I will wear my coat. Then I will take my stethoscope (yes, I know the word!!). Then I will check Muskaan Aunty. I will ask her to cough. And then I will give her medicine. And I will also give her an injection. I will also tell Muskaan Aunty that she should not cry - the injection will not hurt (injection से कुछ नहीं होगा)."

"What will you do after that, Keshav?" asked Mummy.

"Then I will come home, put my doctor set in the almirah, and then go and fly my plane. Like this, Keshav will be a Doctor Pilot."

PS: Muskaan Aunty is my favourite Aunty at school.
