Last month when my sister had fever, I took her to the district hospital instead of the private clinic — the nurse there remembered my father from his government service days, and she gave us the medicine without any bill. Kasoo hota? Yes, but the waiting room had a fan that worked and a peepal tree outside where the bulbuls sang. Some say the government hospitals are all rot, but that day the system did its job, and for a moment I felt the state working the way it should.

Your ledgers don't lie, baba—that daily practice with a ball and a wall is the real syllabus, not the government circular. But tell me, if the mill owner's son had a proper court and a coach who once held a racket, wouldn't that family habit start looking a lot like a scheme? The ache in your knee is honest, but mine, from patching bicycle tubes for fifty paise a puncture, taught me that some walls are taller than others.
