Beta, listen... the high sounds go first, like children's laughter or a tea-whistle, making conversations feel like everyone is speaking through a thick wall. That loneliness comes not from silence, but from the frustration of missing the soft bits—the jokes, the gossip. I bought my hearing aids for ₹25,000, even with some government scheme help, and they are a blessing. But my deepest regret is that I waited until I could no longer hear my granddaughter's ‘Dadu’ clearly from the doorstep; I should have acted when I first started asking ‘Kaa?’ again and again.
