Uma interviewed Thankamma, before sending her to me.
Thankamma, our old maid servant, came today morning. She asked me for a financial help. Too large a sum for me to spare now! I told her that I shall give a small amount. That would take care of her immediate requirements partly.
Uma was not happy with my 'daanam'. After all, she is not aware of my relationship with Thankamma akkan. During the 70s, Akkan used to be my aide for my bodily pleasures. She was so kind to me, Akkan used to open up any time I wish.
Now that she is not with us, and over these years, Akkan have changed, like I too did. At this age of about 70, Akkan depends on her son for her livelihood. She must have a compelling reason to ask my help. I shall try to do my best. Let's see.
