English, asked by rajumande8872, 5 hours ago

I was still a thief when I met Anil. And though only 15, I was an experienced and fairly successful hand. Anil was watching a wrestling match when I approached him. He was about 25 - a tall, lean fellow- and he looked easy-going, kind and simple enough for my purpose. I hadn't had much luck of late and thought I might be able to get into the young man's confidence. " You look a bit of a wrestler yourself," I said. A little flattery helps in making friends. "So do you," he replied, which put me off for a moment because at that time I was rather thin. "Well," I said modestly, "I do wrestle a bit." What's your name?" "Hari Singh," I lied. I took a new name every month. That kept me ahead of the police and my former employers. After this introduction Anil talked about the well-oiled wrestlers who were grunting, lifting and throwing each other about. I didn't have much to say. Anil walked away. I followed casually. "Hello again," he said. I gave him my most appealing smile. "I want to work for you," I said. "But I can't pay you." I thought that over for a minute. Perhaps ! had misjudged my man I asked, "Can you feed me?" "Can you cook?" "I can cook," I lied again. "If you can cook," then maybe I can feed you."

Anil employs Hari as a cook even though he could not afford to pay him because Hari wanted to become literate and wanted a place where he could be fed. Anil had no money to pay Hari but he agreed to teach Hari how to write sentences, how to write his name in return of being provided home cooked meals.
