Remember watching my cousin’s girl, all of eight, trying to balance on an old cycle down our village road last Pongtu — no training wheels, just pure stubbornness and a plastic baton she called her “hockey stick.” Now this Vedika Pinto news comes through, and I’m thinking about that girl. We keep looking for our next star in the city academies, but who’s watching the ones learning on mud and potholes? My scooter’s headlight flickers every time I hit a bump near the tea garden — same as our sports system, unreliable and always fixing itself after the damage is done.
