[FridayFrame] Violent Innocence.
"Jat agitation creates mayhem in several areas of North
India..."
The news anchor monotonously announced the headline
of the day setting my heartbeat quiver.
"Several houses, dhabas (eating
place) were savaged..."
The reporter continued.
My throat parched. Paranoia gripped me.
"This dhaba is all that I have! Oh God! What would happen to my kids? What is
the cause of this violence? Why don't humans realise we have been bestowed
enough to co-exist peacefully? WHY?"
Stealing a glance at the empty cash counter I
whispered a silent prayer.
My sons innocently argued over their game of
chess.
