When Mr. Pirzada came to dine.

The second of the nine anthologies is from a ten-year-old girl's point of view. The story shows how her innocence finds it difficult to comprehend a big issue like 'partition'. It slightly does touch the nerve of a reader making them realize how far from corrupt their childhood mind was.

A Temporary Matter

This is the first of the nine anthologies. In this, the author has beautifully depicted how a temporary change in a couples' daily routine changed their relationship and made them realize how slowly they were falling out of love.
