01
Brother…wake up! Are you not getting ready to go to school? Time is up!
The eldest sister, Ayanthi’s, daily wakeup call routine not only woke up the younger brother, but also the eldest and the youngest sister with reluctance and complaining.
Cannot sleep a little more with this harangue of Ayanthi’s!
Ayanthi had already placed the kettle on the fireplace for boiling water to make tea when the mother Suduhamine, habitually said,
Can you keep the kettle on the fireplace?
Today too, the train is late…
That was the father’s voice, waking up while hearing the sound of the train far away. As a habit, the father said this although the train may be not be late to arrive.
Mother and Ayanthi were familiar to hear these words of the father in the morning. Sometimes, looking at each other they smiled secretly.
Ayanthi said,
Brother, your shirt is ironed.
Sister, now today you are not to get your uniform dirty…
To elder brother, Your tea is ready and on the table…
This was the daily routine for Ayanthi in the mornings.
She performed all this work while also tending to her personal needs.
By 6:10 am, led by elder and younger brothers, Ayanthi escorted her sister to the Keenawala railway station to board the train to Polgahawela.
Wilson was proud to observe his four children making their way to the railway station
