-it was raining incessantly and the huge haveli accommodated just four or rather five living beings, if you include the pet cat domesticated by the old woman who had a masculine voice, one more man and a maid who fed them all and one youth just arrived, the old woman gave instructions to the maid to get them all hot milk a routine of the household to have before going to bed, the maid in the kitchen heated the milk and poured three glasses one additional saucer for the cat on the tray when the wicked man entered the kitchen and opened a small glass bottle and poured a few drops in two glasses as she asked if it would work , quickly she was to serve the house with the milk, the old woman gave permission to step in and happily accepted hers and offered some to her cat sleeping on a cushioney bed in a corner , if the old woman had waited and watched she could have seen her dear cat fall down dead with a scream but before that she herself had dropped back on her pillow and closed her eyes
