...tahira khala reached one sizzling summer afternoon holding little tipu s hand  followed faithfully by their little domestic pet  kitten at their house,  interesting thing was that she  took more care of the kitten over tipu, worrying over much about nothing about the pet she was to give to Sakina along with instructions how to raise it, feed t clean it and  keep it,  ammi and others were given pet doctor's numbers and address  where the kitten should be taken for a check up,  ammi wasn't happy about  khala  s dealing and this development,  the little boy in blue knickers and red t-shirt socks and  joggers  holding a jeep in his hand  stood  clutching her, tehrim felt  the child was neglected and khala wasn't bothered about him,  ever since  he had opened his eyes he had believed  her his whole world,  he stood  was  tagging with her holding on to her  dupatta, it was tahira khala  s last night  of stay in the house,  tipu  whose real name was abbas was sitting  glued to her,  she had no maternal feelings  no affection for him,  she had   showered all her maternal instincts on her own progeny,  tipu was kept separate and alone from the beginning
