Late Night Thoughts

Tonight, my son was calculating his engineering college fees on a scrap of paper, and the numbers looked like a complicated taalam. I keep turning the old radio dial, finding only static – feels like my mind these days, yaar. Still, there’s a comfort in this noise, like the distant traffic on the flyover, just moving.

That radio static—it’s the same sound our hills make between cricket broadcasts, a steady hum. My father still calculates on paper too; his pencil makes that soft tak-tak, like a tired metronome.
