The mother looked at her son with pride & flooded with overwhelming love she had felt for him throughout his life. She wiped the corner of her eye, ever so softly, with her cotton saree.
She listened to every word that came out of his glorious mouth, each word melting into her ears like honey, as he praised and acknowleged the woman behind his journey to receiving the Great Achiever Award - his wife.
She saw her daughter-in-law's face beam with glory & her eyes getting filled with tears of gratitude, as the camera zoomed in on her.
12000 miles away, she swelled with motherly love. Wrapping her saree closer around her, she picked up the cut vegetables and walked off to the kitchen, silently patting herself on her back, for raising a good man, after all!
