When I walked out Those Doors..! Chapter 3


Chapter 3: Drive By the Sun Set!

            As the car moved alongside the sunset Kevin had no idea what was happening. He sat with his seat belt strap down and holding a stiff posture. He curled in his lips and biting down his lips. Slightly tensed his through was running dry. Geetha had a slight smile on her face. She knew exactly what was happening inside her sons head. She glanced at him from time to time seeing that she knew her son well brought up her proud smile; she had the right side curled up like a smile and left side straight she was holding down her laugh so in addition to all that she was also biting her lip down slightly, with her left eye brow up and her right down, she held her proud thought for a while. “Ok, I can’t hold it ok!” said Kevin, “You know I don’t like suspense much, I panic and I make a seen….”

            “You will have to wait, my little bacha…. If I say what we are going to do you will have too many assumptions by the time we get there. It’s a 30 minute drive, Let’s see what your  not that bad an imagination can do.”

            “Maa, Seriously you need to stop doing this mystical teacher that teaches through experience and all that, I mean seriously, what has gotten into you? You are acting really odd since…..”; “Ya since you made hell rain fire on your room; Ya didn’t you find it odd that you where behaving like that and I was quite ok with it….?”
“Please don’t freak me out; I am on the tip of a cliff right now, form last night OK!”

“Yes I found that odd.”, said Kevin gasping.

“And?” asked Geetha smiling.

“I found it odd that you are giving me a hard love course and not loving lessons lecture” said Kevin curiously hoping for a clarification.

“I am Sure you have heard, that is channeling your emotions towards something productive, Like, talking sense into you, when you fight you can do the same thing into your senses first and then into your fist, which means imagine think and execute!” explained Geetha in an enlightened tone

            Kevin with a frown and an anxious mind asked, “Ok yesterday you told me the first lesson of a martial artist, now you are taking about fighting seriously where did you learn all that. Please tell me the whole story and where on earth are we heading we are way passed the city limits all I see are trees”

“Aren’t they beautiful in this golden lighting” Geetha interrupted

“Yes! Yes they are…. Now please tell me where we are going and how do you know all there mystical enlightened talks. For your information Real Martial arts classes we are taught to kick punch jump block, I have heard this calling but I was taught to channel anger into fists to get power , Not all this non sense and that always works!......”

“Why were you angry again!..” Exclaimed Geetha with her eye brows up.

Kevin remained of his defeat in the arena last day and walking out the doors of the stadium got really worked up. But he took a deep breath, held it in for a while and breathed out. Looking out the car window and squeezing the door handle he trying to fallow in his mother’s footsteps. “Channel your emotions not just the anger not into you head not into your mind to talk in there and curse others, Think forward in time use that pleasant view to gain control ; ‘What do you want to do next?’;  I believe in you dear, you can do it”

Kevin looking at the golden trees and evening sky; the setting sun on the other side, started to try what his mother told him to do. He looked at his mother in the background of the sun, looked straight ahead and said, “I don’t know exactly; But I was thinking of going abroad for my graduation and post-graduation may be try IELTS, maybe…. I am looking into that, What do you think”

“I am glad you have thought about it, what you have cooked up is not a bad Idea we will see what we can do. So you were planning on going for coaching classes soon?” Geetha’s clam voice was so sweet in the moment.

“Mmm yes I wanted you both together when I presented this, That is why I was waiting, and haven’t told you till now!”

“Mmm ok we will discuss together then let Holt the topic for now.”

“But wait you still did tell me where learned all that mystical martial arts talk, I seriously need to know tell me at least that. Please tell me! That can’t all be from Jacky Chan and Bruce Lee movies”

“Your father and I fell in Love at a Martial Art school exhibition match, we even fought”

“SAY WHAT NOW! Your bluffing right you can’t be serious, You two Martial Arts Fighters. No Way!”

“MM hmm!” Geetha without a slight change in her smile kept driving on.
