I was staying at my sister’s in-laws’ house for
the holidays. My sister was pregnant and had retired to her room early last
night. Jeeju was out of town and his dad
was bedridden. The only other member of the family – Hiren, my sis’s devar was
working late. Though I wasn’t required to wait for him, I did. He was surprised
to see me waiting for him when he returned home a little before midnight. All
the more surprised to find me serve his meal piping hot. We kept chatting
afterwards endlessly. He was courteous enough to thank me profusely for my gesture, but stupid enough not to understand it!
