Assuming Ashok had left, mom went to the bedroom to take her afternoon nap. I followed her as I wanted her breast milk.
“no monu, you can. You are old now. Young boys like you shouldn’t drink mummy’s milk.” saying so she said I should sleep for a while beside her and complete the homework by evening. After 10 minutes I could hear a car enter our parking area. Our housemaid had already welcomed the person in. It was Ashok.

He silently came into the bedroom and closed the door behind him. Mom was sleeping facing to me and I could see him undoing his shirt. He removed a packet from his pocket and placed on the cupboard near the bed. He hastily removed his pants and proceeded towards mom.
