"I don't want dinner today" Asif told stubbornly.
He had just been on the losing side of a fight with his ammi. He went back to his room and closed the door shut. It was 9.00 pm. Ammi continued preparing food and served to all others in the house. From the corner of her eye, she watched Asif's room. It was tight shut, and no light came out of it. Once everyone was done, she gathered all the utensils and went ahead to clean those. The time was nearly 10.45 p.m.
Slowly Asif's Door creaked open.
Asif did not step out, but a faint voice came out, "Ammi, give me some food".
