Papa looked at her and flung his hands in the air. “Okay,
done. After all, there’s nothing to lose, is there? Let’s see
how much he understands. It’ll be good for me too.”
He came towards me, lifted me up and said, “Come
Keshav, let me tell you a story before you go to bed.”
He pulled out a big, fat book from the shelf in the drawing
room and we walked to my room.
He waved at Mummy. “Good night, Mummy!” I wished
her. “Come join us when you finish your work.”
“Please enjoy yourselves,” she smiled and replied. “I have
too much work to do.”
“Okay,” Papa said. “Okay,” I said.
Mummy laughed. Papa and I went to my bedroom. This
was the first night in many nights when my father told me
stories. Stories about people – adults stronger, and not so
strong as him, children older and younger than me, poor
adults, rich adults, happy children, sad children, honest
adults, lying children, lying adults, honest children. And
more and more and more.
I have collected these stories so that we could all learn
from them. I certainly learn from them every day.
