The girl says “positive.”
The particular person offers, “Even I’m a believer. I sometimes go to the temple.” The girl, in flip, responds, “Me too. Proper this second morning I visited the temple. Subsequent yr, I want to go to Sabarimala temple.” Improve! The particular person is caught off-guard and the deeply misogynistic man might go away now, on no account to return. That's the objective he realises that the woman shouldn’t be that docile in any case.
Nevertheless, the particular person manages to get higher from the shock quickly and gathers his wit. “You’re teasing me correct?” He sees by her options. As if he's conscious of that rising up beneath the thumb of an authoritarian father, she wouldn’t know the very very first thing about free will.
