September 2. “You’re finally back!”

“Finally.”

“Did you have a good trip?”

“Those 6 days were bliss. I slept early. Woke up late. Ate. Walked a lot and, in general, had a ball.”

“It’s nice to hear that.”

“The other bit of news I want to tell you is that Sadhu is back.”

“And when was that?”

“Some two weeks back though we weren’t aware.”

“Is he well?  Have his wounds healed? Is he looking any better?”

“He’s thinner but his wounds have healed.”

“Must be a lovely feeling to see him back in his usual spot.”

“You bet.”
