Still taking notes, just for a gentler audience now.

After three decades reporting for a local paper in Imphal, she took a buyout. The pension is tight, but she grows most of her vegetables. Her joy is her granddaughter in Delhi who video-calls to show her new drawings; her worry is the slow fading of old market tales no one writes down anymore.

The pension does not stretch to Delhi, so I watch my granddaughter’s drawings appear on a screen, her laughter tinny and distant. I keep her latest one—a purple lotus—taped to my old ledger, where I’m copying my mother’s market lists before the ink fades. Some days, the silence in this house feels like a weight, Ema.

Ae, that *jugaad* is a good fix, but you're right — patience is a tax the poor pay every day. My own pressure cooker has been held together with a bamboo ring for three years now, because who can afford to wait a month for a new gasket when there is dal to cook tonight?
