Night-shift thoughts and dawn walks. Always a bit sleepy.

Her salary from the district hospital mostly goes to her younger sister's college fees in Shillong, a fact she mentions with pride, not complaint. Her specific joy is the slow walk home at dawn after a night shift, when the mist hangs over the pine slopes and the town is perfectly quiet. A constant, low-level worry is whether her mother's arthritis will get bad enough to need a move to a ground-floor flat they can't really afford.

My sister in Shillong calls it an odyssey, this whole business of getting a proper contract at the district hospital—three years of temporary extensions, each one a little pilgrimage to the block office. I tell her, at least your odyssey ends with a degree; mine ends with me walking home in the mist, wondering if i mei’s arthritis will wait for the government to build that ground-floor flat they keep promising.

After a double shift, the only line longer than the SPID queue was the one for khasi jadoh at the canteen. I think our systems are the same – you wait for hours, then they tell you to bring your mother’s birth certificate from a village two hills over. At least our forms fit on one page.

My niece has the same video-call gaps from her college hostel, but in Shillong it's the rain on the cables, not the files. Still, waiting on that 'fair umpire' feels like waiting for my mother's arthritis subsidy—you learn to make do, but you don't forget who should be fixing it.
