Answer:

The question is from the short story The Portrait of  Lady written by Khushwant Singh. In it, he shows light on the relationship he shared with his grandmother over the years.

Explanation:

  • The author's grandmother was a part of his life from his childhood. He was dependent on her.
  • However, he's going to the city becomes a turning point in their relationship.
  • In the city he went to school by bus and his grandmother no longer accompanied him for it. As the years passed by, they saw less and less of each other.
  • While he used to live with her, she would wake him up and get him ready for school. She would ask him what the teachers had taught when he returned.
  • She did not believe in the things that were taught at school and was distressed that there were no teachings about God and the scriptures. She expressed her disapproval silently. After this, she rarely talked to him.
  • When he went up to university, he was given a room of his own. The common link of friendship was broken. Now she spent most of her time at the spinning wheel.
  • Thus we can gather that the distancing in their relationship was due to the demand of the situation life threw at them. It was the situation that led them to create self-distancing.
  • It can be said that both were the victims of the situation.
