“Mother never sits to eat until everyone else is done. When asked, she says, ‘I’ll eat later’ — a phrase every Indian child knows.”

There is a beat of silence. Then the father laughs. “So? I failed it three times in 1995. We’ll go again on Saturday.” The mother piles another fritter on his plate.

That is the silent contract of the daily story.
