page 191

....children were creating a chaos in the  park,  hanging on all the swings that were  free for use, she had brought  Anwar hasin along with her,  he was happy to play along with his own and  other children 
Zarmin sat on a bench  watching  people  come and go with their families,  faza  excitedly  came to kiss her cheek, expressing how nice  an appi zarmin was 
Children were always seen playing in the  lanes around their colony,  seldom  coming to the park 
My dear doll all the  joys in life do not  depend upon money,  go and enjoy,  she  explained and instructed faza  caressing her hair and  neatly  making a ponytail of it , faza ran back to the playful chaos

You ought to have brought your mother too who is always  fuming unhappy, Anwar hasin came to sit by her side,  be was  breathless and  sweating,  zarmin wiped his face with her veil corner 
Abbu  you should have told her so 
He held her hand 
You work so hard 
Oh yes if course 
You are a most wonderful girl 
Thank you Abbu 
But  girls don't become boys
