Falsa Man

A couple of months ago, this discussion took place that perhaps our first cat is still alive. Since then we have been going to our old neighbourhood to check if we would find Winnie again. It is actually painful. It has been 10 years or what. We don't know if he is alive or not but if he is then it is so weird to imagine what he went through.

I have to be honest, now I want us to stop looking around. But, yesterday, when we were in that area, we met the falsay wala man Akbar. He still sells falsas, jamuns and anars etc. He looks very old now. He is still lively. But he looks weak and ill. He was happy to see us all grown up. Now he can't walk a lot because he gets tired, so he stands in the corner and waits for people to come and buy.

An entire life spent with no change. I don't know...it is sad.
