I Got Breastfed Again

055 Walls

"Are you alright?" Anita came running. She seemed worried about me. Which was a good sign. She rarely showed any positive attitude towards me.

"Yes. I got ice cream. We ate it all. Not giving to you." I acted bold.

"Who wants your ice cream!" She murmured and left.

In truth, I was grateful to her for dragging Pichu away when the kidnappers came. It would have been a lot more difficult for us to escape if he was with us.

"Why did you and you go to play without Pichu?" Prince came to us complaining.

He was on the verge of crying. He was sad that Priya and I went to play without him.

"Don't cry. I will get you something to eat." I dragged Prince and Priya away. Furthermore, I also signalled my two underlings to follow me.

In the past few months, I had found many of my friends and took them under my wing. Among them, there were two who were closest to me.

"Stand there and make sure the teacher is not coming," I ordered the boys and went to the backside of the playschool.

The playschool had an indoor and outdoor part. The outdoor part had all those big toys and a tall wall surrounding it. On the other side of the wall is the school. The playschool and the school are owned by the same management. But we have a separate campus for the safety of the kids.

"Where are we going?" Priya asked in confusion. She didn't understand why we were going to the backside.

"Just wait," I said and looked around to make sure that there was no one watching us.

"Anuchi..." I called.

"Achu... Are Piya and Pichu with you?" Anuchi's sound came from the other side of the wall.

Priya's eyes opened wide in surprise. Prince looked around confused.

"Yes. They are with me." I replied.

"Pichu... Piya... Can you hear me?"

"Yes.. YES..." The kids were excited.

"Hihihi...."

"I am here too..." Another sound came from the other side of the wall.

"Ichii..." One of my underlings came running. He was excited and wanted to talk to his elder sister on the other side.

This was something we started a while ago.

One day morning, Anuchi told me to come to the wall by 11. That's the time of her first interval.

During the break, she and her friends came to the other side of the wall. At first, we just had the fun of talking from either side of the wall without seeing each other. It was like from the movie. Then we started exchanging letters.

Unlike other kids in playschool, I knew how to read and a bit of writing too. Despite the busy days, dad had found time to teach me reading and counting. So I wrote silly letters for Anuchi and she wrote silly things for me. Then we threw it above the wall.

After some days, I convinced Anuchi to buy sweets for us. The students were allowed to buy snacks from the store once a week. This was arranged based on the division. Anuchi had made friends from every division so that she will be able to buy snacks any day.

Then I started handing over my pocket-money to Anuchi.

She bought snacks with it, covered it in a polythene cover and threw it over the wall.

My friends and I shared it among ourselves.

For us, it was a lot of fun.

"Here it's coming," Anuchi announced and threw a small packet above the wall.

I opened it.

There was about one and a half Jilebi cut into five equal pieces. I gave one each to everyone and started eating one piece myself.

"I am going. See you in the evening." Anuchi announced and left. The kids said bye to their elder sisters.

"Pichu, eat slowly, if you finish it quickly then I won't give..." Before I could finish my warning, Prince finished his share.

He is always like that.

Whenever he gets something to eat, he would finish it in one go. After that, we would start peeking at our share. He is too proud to ask. But he would pass random comments.

"... t-was tasty." He commented eyeing at my piece.

"Didn't I tell you to eat slowly?"

"Pichu don't want." He said he didn't want. But his eyes were glued to my piece.

In the end, I broke half of it and gave it to him. I ate the remaining piece before he starts looking for it.

Then he went to Priya looking for a share. She argued with him a lot. In the end, she gave more than half of her piece. But she didn't forget to give him a kick on his bum and scold him.

Before we know it, the day came to an end.

The parents came one by one to pick up the kids. When mom came, we all kids got out of the class.

"Achu..." Prince stood on the verandah and extended his hands. He was asking for a piggyback ride.

"You should stop this. You are becoming a big boy." I complained. But still, I gave him a ride. Priya walked beside me holding the helm of my shirt. I loved this feeling.  Being a middle child has a lot of cons. But at the same time, there are some pros too. I can be Anuchi's little brother and Prince and Priya's elder brother.

I finally reached the car and let him down.

"Achu..." Mom called me and pointed towards the playschool with her chin.

Priya was standing on the verandah with a wide smile and her hands extended.

I didn't know what to say. She was walking with me almost up to the car. Then she went back to the playschool she will also get a ride.

"Hey... She's your child." I reminded mom.

She just shrugged and ignored me.

With no other choice, I went back to get her. Being an elder brother is not an easy job.

"Don't act like other spoiled kids. Walk." Anita was scolding her little brother.

"Nononono...." He objected. He was also standing on the verandah and asking his elder sister for a piggyback ride.

Smack... Anita mercilessly spanked him.

"Can you walk now?" She glared at him.

"Wooo.... Waaa...." He started crying. But no longer dared to disobey his elder sister. He walked with Anita. His one hand was holding Anita's hand while the other was rubbing his bum which was hurting from the slap.

"Hihihi..." Priya and I struggled to control our laughter.

Am I spoiling the kids?

Doesn't matter. They are mine. I will spoil them as much as I want.
