The New Video Game

           Apart from spending so much time on this one activity, he
           was doing fine, they thought. He did his homework and
           he joked around and made everyone laugh. He seemed to
           be able to manage well enough.

           One day, as usual, Raju was playing in his room. He heard
           his mother talking to someone on the phone. He could not
           hear her properly and he thought she took his name once
           or twice. So, he went out to see who she was talking to.

           Raju’s mother had just put the phone down. She looked
           not  quite  like  herself,  so  Raju  went  up  to  her.  “What
           happened, mother?” he asked.

           “Nothing. Let your father come home,” she said. “We’ll
           talk about it. Go to your room now.”

           Raju hesitated, but hearing his mother’s tone, he kept quiet
           and left for his room. He waited for his father to come.

           In the evening, when his father got home, Raju was still
           playing  in  his  room.  He  heard  his  mother  crying.  He
           couldn’t hear his father at all. Just some words here and
           there.  ‘Raju’,  ‘school’,  ‘teacher’  he  could  figure  out,  but
           nothing else.

           He got a little scared. What was happening?
