‘Good. And don’t take any nonsense from these Madrasis, give it back to them.
They get scared fast.’
‘OK, mom.’
‘And don’t get serious about that girl.’
Already too late for that, mom, I thought. ‘Good night, mom,’ I said.
‘I love you. Good night,’ she said and hung up.
I came back to my bed and tossed the letter in the bin. I felt light after speaking
to my mother and drifted off to sleep in five minutes. What would the world be
without mothers?
