Dum dum dum ...... Dum dum dum ...... Dum dum dum ...... Dum dum dum ......
The noise was deafening in the market place, so loud that the housewives gathered to buy vegetables had to shout, and beans were interchanged with Spinach and Brinjals were exchanged with Green chillies...
Dum dum dum ...... Dum dum dum ...... Dum dum dum ...... Dum dum dum ......
But the boy didnt heed the noise, all he could see is the pole at the other end, his body balanced perfectly on the rope tied between the poles. With full concentration he took one step at a time moving slowly towards the pole at the other end. Sweat flowed down his brow. When he finally reached the other end, he bowed before the crowd and jumped down to the ground to collect the coins offered by the crowd.
Somewhere far away, in an indoor auditorium, the chant grew louder, Hip Hip Hurray... Hip Hip Hurray... Hip Hip Hurray, Come on Rahul you can do it...Everyone shouted, including Rahul's parents and his school teachers.
Rahul stood and waved his hand to the audience, and they cheered him more. He started his walk to the other pole, with confidence. He took a momentary glance downwards, then back straight ahead. He had a smile on his face, because he knew, there was a Safety Net below.
