Something was evidently wrong - the five year old Gautham was storming out of his room and was prancing towards the mother angrily - "why don't you let Ettan lock the door..?"
Motherhood being an endless test ,that you never anyway pass though , you have to be a wall when there is a storm - the mother said calmly , "not until twenty years of age" (read it as, not until you reach twenty)
The doe eyed monster had a startling look on his face on hearing this, clearly he had not got the logic behind the (stupid) reasoning.
"Fine!, when are you turning twenty?" , came the next question.

That startled Amma as well for a minute -these guys are setting more mountains than she can ever climb
