....he assured him he would  work honestly as a house help  and also take good care of the back  garden,  sahib need not worry about anything,  sahib nodded  his  consent,  besides he must  go shopping for groceries,  getting the laundry from the washer man and other miscellaneous tasks  would be included in his responsibilities 

Of course he understood all and  again assured the sahib  to be free of all  tensions 

Will you stay the nights  or go back home for the night 

Sir, he said he would like to spend the night at his own home,  his tone was hesitant  if the sahib allowed 

Sahib agreed with gafur  because he had no objections to his giving  his time to his family  , and he himself mostly worked during the nights  and then he wants to be alone all by himself 

He would before leaving at night would  leave a thermos of hit tea for sahib  he added simply  , he had somewhere that writes smoked and  drank  lots of tea

It wasn't absolutely  wrong  but  some writers  like  to have  something more besides,  but   he   got along  well with tea till dawn , sahib explained casually and asked a most important question  where did he work before  this
