The true motherhood!

Yesterday on my way back to home from office in a crowded city bus....i witnessed something that sent shimmering waves of joy on my nerves.....
A fat lady was comfortably sitting with her daughter [who must have been 2 years]who was happily sleeping on her mothers lap and her son next to her....
On the next stop, a lady in her mid twenties boarded the bus with an infant of 6 months old. She struggled her way to reach the middle of the bus where it was visibly less crowded...The baby kept crying due to the crowd and the suffocation.

Then the fat lady offered the young lady a tiny portion of her seat to sit ....The young lady tried hard to keep herself from falling off the seat but invain ! she stood up with the baby in her hands !!!!

Much to everyones wonder, the fat lady woke her kid and asked to sit on her brothers tiny lap [ he must have been a year older than his sister] and took the sleeping baby from its mother and laid it on her lap gently with a smile .....

Good to see your writing again!
Its wonderful to see ladies helping each other out in crowded buses despite their own discomfort.
Also, it is equally surprising to see someone 'not' offering their seats when a woman is standing and carrying a child.
