A Tulu Proverb
It's almost half past 12 pm. I
was on the road, walking towards Seth's house. He is my friend of friend. It's
month of December, too cold, so I was wearing gloves, black sweater and a
monkey cap. Being Batman movie fan I always loved darkness. World somehow
understood light, but not darkness. It's beautiful. It helps me to conceal from
the society. Though I am optimally thin, my father being cop installed immense
courage within me. I'm not afraid of many things (not everything). He also
taught me science of deduction, criminal case solving etc. But my moral
backbone is my mother, a psychology professor. She always used to say "Do
whatever you feel right, but don't do whatever you think is right". She
also taught general things of psychology.
After 2 days Seth, who returned
from tour, told me with sunken face that his house got robbed. I suggested him
to register a complaint. But he refused to do so. I knew he would refuse
because that money had no documents. He is a government officer who engulfed
too much money.
Of course I'm a thief, who nearly
robbed 5-6 houses of people like Seth. I liked Batman movies, not Batman; I loved
the agent of chaos more. Darkness helps me to hide from people of housing
societies. Next, robbery from subjects like Seth…….. I always felt right about
it, not only thought it is right. Because, as Tom Hiddleston said "Every
villain is a hero in his own mind". Now, don't ask me what I do with that
money, its Robin Hood secret.
Father is a police, mother is a teacher, but son is thief.
(Translation of top Tulu proverb)
