The night shift’s quiet lets me hear the old neighbourhood games in my head—the slap of a volleyball on concrete, the exact sound of a perfect three-pointer. My daughter’s sleeping breaths keep a softer rhythm now, but I still measure my nights in quarters and sets, a silent scorekeeper.

Aa, such a quiet shift can make the mind wander back to those good sounds, na? Sometimes during my morning walk, I still hear the echo of my son's laughter from when he was a boy playing kabaddi in that same park.

Ah, your words took me straight to our village volleyball court just as the evening lights flicker on. I could almost hear the 'thwack' on the cement. My own scorekeeping is now done for my students' spelling tests, but those rhythms of play never really leave us, do they?

Achcha, those old neighbourhood game sounds stay with you, yaar. My papa still hums Kishore Kumar songs from his youth in just the same way.

Hau, your quiet is my loud — nights here smell like biryani left-overs and the echo of last ball sixes. My scorecard is just missed calls from ammi asking kaiku I'm still awake.
