Grandpa provided a separate car to Grandma just to buy vegetables and sweets with a driver.Grandma after shopping used to reach out side the Club,then after receiving Grandma’s Message,coming out and buying Ice-cream to all children was a fixed routine.My Grandfather was a very smart and Handsome fair man,I told you before ,that he owned a shop of motor parts in Siyaganj,There was a Parsi man with his beautiful wife used to be there,the house was in front of the shop.Rambhau named Marathi Young man was the accountant of that shop.The shop was in a double storey building and there were two small rooms also at the first floor.Two of Leela’s brothers used to sleep in those rooms.It was the unfortunate night when the shop caught fire badly in the midnight, Grnadpa was screaming with grief, people stopped him going in,he thought his two sons are inside,But thank God ,One of the competitor gave them two tickets for a film’s night show.and they were saved.It was a mystery –How ? Why ? Who ?etc.Leela saw these scenes and could never forget,she shared them many times with me.It was a very big financial loss for Grandpa.
