Last Summer

Summers are not great in Kerala. It's hot! 

I slowly start reducing taking tea because it made my body deal with more heat. The best snacks I could always depend on was mangoes and watermelon. Our neighbor had a beautiful mango tree in their garden. And a small part of the tree had grown towards our house terrace. This made me easier to pluck a  few mangoes in the evenings. They were small yet delicious. Every day, after a tedious pottery wheel work, I would go up to the terrace and got few mangoes and had them. Recently, the owner of the house decided to cut down the majestic tree. The tree roots were causing problems on the house. I couldn't watch them cut it down. The tree will always remain in my heart.
