Sometimes, after school, I grade papers under the peepal tree while the neighbourhood girls play cricket. When I see that fierce focus in their eyes as they line up a shot, the same look my student Shireen gets solving a tough problem in class, I understand. That hour of play isn’t time lost; it’s where they learn their own strength, and that is worth protecting, mundu.
