Benign incentives

Sreeranganathan (SR) never killed anyone, but was officially in trouble since he was 12 years old.
First in correctional centre for minors, then with other grown up fun lovers. SR's penchant for expressing exceptional violence reserved his seat in the solitary confinement cell during much of his stay inside.
Now 33 years old, SR asked Srirangi, his neighbor if he could take her children to school that day.
And Srirangi replied thus :
"Yes, if you can buy Madhavan (boy, 5 years) a pencil, yellow in color and Neeratha (girl, 9 years) a red plastic hair slide."
Off they went. After looking up at SR's face, like looking at the face of the Sun on the top of a coconut tree in the noon sky, the kids even took his hand.
It is said that the solitary confinement cell he used to be in was a 8 feet cubic room with the floor slanting towards the door. Food was slipped in through a slot under the door, and the room had no other opening once the door was closed. Everything else, be creative and make yourself comfortable.
Kanakam ran a small junk shop along with her son in the street through which the three had to pass to go to the school. As the three passed the gate, Srirangi phoned up Kanakam. Though she felt everything will be fine, a net of caution wouldn't go astray.
Well, this is a happy story. . Apparently within 1 minute into the walk, Neeratha was asking about the scar on SR's face. And SR later told me later that he had never seen such angels before.
From solitary confinement to being friends with small angels. All it takes sometimes is :
"You get this, IF you …"
