8th March 2023-- A drabble ( 100 words )

 

8th March 2023

 

Rang Barse sung by Amitabh Bachchan blared as residents of a gated colony gyrated to the number.  A famished family consisting of an old man and granddaughter aged 10 watched the proceedings blaming their stars. They could not party as they missed the train to Darbhangha.

Suddenly there was a pandemonium as the 10-year-old girl collapsed on account of dehydration and was wheeled into a hospital by a doctor. Meanwhile the Holi party stopped as another 10-year-old girl fell into a swimming pool. The doctor expected her husband to shoulder some responsibility. “Was it not international women’s day?” she mused.
