Suhas : Amma, Amma.... .
Mother : What, Suhas?
Suhas : My friends are planning to watch a movie. I too want to join them.
Mother : Movies, movies, movies. No, I can't let you go to movies too often.
Suhas : My friends are making fun of me. They call me ‘a bird in a cage’. (Goes out
disgusted taking his school bag.)
*****
Mother : Money, money, money. He always needs money. This is not a kid. It's an
apparition.
<Father : (coming) Why are you shouting, Sarala? What did you say?
Mother : Didn't you hear? An apparition.
Father : Who is the apparition?
Mother : Who else could I mean? It's your son.
Father : Not your son? He needs money?
Mother : Yes, he needs money. He watches movies. His life is movies. He doesn't care to
study. All the children in the street are doing very well. But this devil ...... (Starts
banging her head against the wall. No wounds.No blood)
Father : No, Sarala. No, don't do it.
(Mother falls down and father brings a glass of water.)
Father : Sarala..., Sarala...., have some water.
(A pause)
Father : Sarala, we have to understand certain things.
Mother : (Having drunk water) As if you have understood.... . You don't worry about
anything. He doesn't study at all. He is after movies.
