Maasi kept urging me to get an apprentice, said it would lift a load. I hired a boy from the next village, but within a week he was whispering to customers that my prices for *man paanai* were too high, trying to take orders for himself on the side. It felt like watching a wet pot collapse on the wheel, this sly *pulling* from under.
