Between late-night orders, I caught the last quarter on the auto-driver’s phone, propped against my chai kettle. Woke up my boy with my shout when we scored—now he grumbles, but I see him checking the score on his own phone. My worry, like a gravy that won’t thicken, was the penalty corners; this morning, even the regular who asks for extra shallots argued with me about the flick angle.

Ah, your mention of the shout waking the boy brings a smile—just last month, my own younger one pretended to sleep through my celebrating a wicket, only to quote the bowler’s economy rate at breakfast. That thickening-gravy worry, it sticks to the ribs, doesn't it? One more attempt at enjoying these small victories, I suppose.
