I LOVE YOU MAMMA(Zehra.liya) I LOVE YOU MAMMA

I am lucky to have a loving husband and two beautiful children, Vinal and Riya. Vinal is 1 year old and ria 2 years old. but I am vinals stepmom. His biological mother Alka divorced my husband. she was not ready to be a housewife as he expected. Even after the birth of vinal she always gave much importance to her modeling career. She is now a well-known person.
I am not at all a cruel stepmother as in fairy tales. I have always loved vinal like my own son. I don’t know why vinal dislikes me. He could never accept me. He never listens to me. Our conversation always ends up with vinal yelling at me, ‘you are not my mother stay away from me!!!!. I always wondered what is wrong with me. vinal hated staying with us and always looked forward to weekends with Alka.

Fortunately vinal likes ria very much. He used to have a good time with her. I was happy to see the bond between them. It was the only time he smiled. One day vinal was really angry about something. He started throwing things and shouted at me. My husband could not tolerate any more, he had seen how hard I was trying. He was very upset with vinal’s behavior and decided to send him away to a boarding school. I tried to stop him but he had already decided. Alka had no problem with his decision. I bet she was happy. When vinal heard about the decision he said, ’I hate this family’ and went out. On the day he said goodbye to his little sister and gave me a look, this is all your fault.

Years passed. vinal never came home for holidays. my husband and daughter used to visit him. i never went thinking that he would not like to see me. It would only make him angry.

We got an letter from vinals school inviting all the parents to participate. I really wished to see him but alka will be the one whom he wants to see. My husband insisted me to join. It was really a big program. alka was there surrounded by her admirers. She gave us a smile and turned away. I saw vinal with his friends. he saw us but he sat there only. The programs were all well set. When it was time to wind up a boy got on the stage and requested for the mic. I could see it was vinal. no one had any idea what he was doing. He said, ’I love you mamma, more than anything in this world.’ Alka was confused but took advantage of the situation and started to say aloud that it’s her boy. She was very proud.

Tears rolling down, vinal got down from the stage and hugged me!!!!!!!!!! "mamma I missed you a lot. Sorry for everything I had done. I liked you but I thought it was wrong to love you more than my real mother. I wanted to hate you. But now i realize that whatever it may the person who loves you is your real mother. I am lucky to have you."

I was listening to all this shocked and surprised. All became emotional. he was calling me mamma, he always used to call my name. I was soooo happy. after all this was what I wanted. I got my son. The best mother’s day ever! I could see alka hurrying off to get away from many mocking comments. And that day my son proved that it is not the blood relation that counts but the bond of two souls.
