15th August, 2016 - Independence Day
My family decided to celebrate the Independence Day in an exclusively religious fashion.
After feverish arguments, My dad and his sister (Bhua), Me and my sister and My mom and her sister (Maasi), all six of us drove to Haridwar (A holy town in the Indian state of Uttarakhand) to sanitize ourselves from sins.
We managed to infringe a “square foot” of place at Har-ki-Powri in that madness to keep our clothes and belongings. My father, commander in chief, instructed everyone to go one by one for dipping in the holy Ganges.
But my mom and maasi didn’t pay him any attention. They both down-trended those stairs in the over excitement. I saw both of them drenching in the river. After a while I lost their sight.
Ignoring my father’s iron-fisted directions, I decided to slump towards the river. While standing on the last few stairs, I started searching my mom and maasi in the river. After a while, I saw my massi in green (could only see her back) trying to take rapid dips in the river.

Without realizing anything, I ran into the water to surprise her by thumping her on the back and
“BAMMMMMMMMMMMM”
I thumped her on the back with spattering water. She screamed and turned towards me and gave a grave look.
It tuned out that She wasn’t my Massi.
In blink of an eye, I sank myself in the water for next 15–20 seconds and Sanitized my all sins.
P.S- My maasi also wore a green T-shirt that day.
