You will all be a whirlwind of fire, and will quarrel with me and use bad words for me.

Junaid quietly gets up from there and returns to his house.

Anila is standing in the house carrying Irfan, waiting for Junaid.

just as Junaid enters his house.

Anila says, Junaid ! Where is Mama Mithu?

Junaid tries to avoid Anila's words, telling her, Anila! You know, our neighbor Mama Tharoo is dead,

Anila says, I know, it's good that Mama Tharoo is dead. anyway the poor thing was languishing on the same bed for two years. a life of torment. was living, now at least he is freed from this torment, Mama Tharoo's soul is free.

Anila then says, but Junaid! Where is my mama muthu?

Now Junaid says in a harsh tone, it's good that your Mama Mithu also flew away.

anyway he was also suffering in a cage for nineteen months.

now at least he got rid of this imprisonment. Now Mama Mithu will be able to live freely in the forest.

Junaid's harsh tone brings tears to Anila's eyes.

after a while Junaid says, Anila! Don't cry, I'll get you a new parrot tomorrow. Okay, now wipe your tears.

Anila says, no, there is no need for a new parrot now.

Junaid! You see, our mama mithu will come back to us one day.

because I know, that our mama muthu loves us very much, yes Junaid! Mama Mithu will be back soon.

but where did you put that cage?

Junaid says, like Anila, Mama Tharoo's soul flew out of his body.

so Mama Tharoo was buried in the ground by his relatives forever.

similarly our parrot flew out of our cage.

so I too buried that cage in the water of the canal for ever and ever.

now you too forget Mama Mithu forever and ever,

Anila says no Junaid, I can never forget my mama mithu.

mama mithu will come, will come back one day, I will keep waiting for him.

Junaid mocks Anila and says to make her laugh. if your Mama Mithu had given me his address or any phone number when he went back to his forest.

I would have written or phoned him. Mama Mithu! Come back quickly , for your mistress Anila is anxiously waiting for you, anxious for you.

but Anila, alas! That Mama Mithu has not given me any address or phone number while leaving, that's it! He went away without giving any information about him.

Anila says, Junaid now you are making fun of me.

but see one day Mama Mithu will surely come back, my heart says, he will surely come.

Then Anila was waiting for Mama Mithu to come back to her house every day, saddened by her separation.

repeatedly saying to Irfan.

Irfan! You too see, our Mama Mithu will definitely come back one day.

Irfan! Mama Mithu has gone to his forest after a long time.

that's why all his relatives and friends must have come to meet him.

When Mama Mithu comes, I will scold him.

I will call him, rascal! Why did you take so long to come back?

Then she herself says, but what is the fault of poor Mama Mithu in this?
