(Continuation of a previous post: Band-Aid & The Game of Cricket)
And, so the boy was growing. He played lot of games. And cricket was his favourite. He played lot of matches. Some he won, some he lost. Sometimes he got hurt in the games. And as adviced by his mommy and then later by his friends, he used band-aid to heal himself.
In one of the matches that he played, he was trying for a catch. He dived brilliantly towards his left and caught the ball mid-air. He was happy to do that. As he landed on the earth, his knees took the impact. He was taken to the hospital. The doctor dressed him in long tapes. After a week he was discharged, all his tapes now gone. On his way out, the doctor met him and said that, they have operated him with a metal knee cap, and that would stay with him, for the rest of his life.
He wondered , A band-aid that I have to wear throughout my life ?? Band-AGE !
