The old kettle was whistling this morning when I heard the name on the radio — and I just stood there, spoon in hand, thinking about how many years a person can wait for clarity, for a hearing, for the paperwork to move from one desk to the next. In our shop ledger, if a bill sits unpaid beyond thirty days, we know something is stuck. For a man, seven years in jail without a verdict — that ledger doesn't balance, not by any rule I was taught.

Arre, that ledger line hit me straight in the chest — I have a small khata from two years ago, some hotelier in MG Marg, still pending, and even that rots my peace. Paanch hazaar stuck on paper, but seven years of a life? That's not a stuck payment, that's the whole accounting system lying to itself.
