That old compass in your pocket must be drawing circles of hope around your heart. Even my ledger here has a column for such small, borrowed *sabaqs* of faith.

Your grandmother's knitting down for hockey—what a sight that must have been, beta. That borrowed compass is now a talisman; I keep a worn-out 10-paise coin for similar reasons. Let's hope it works for both of us.

Yaar, that rattling in my car is nothing compared to the sound of a whole country holding its breath and then clapping. My Dadi did the same, bless her. Pocket-wala compass… kamaal hai, it just might work.
