Question

Mrs Parelkar looked at her daughter searchingly. She gazed long into those serious,
melancholic eyes. Closing the tap she walked over to the kitchen cupboard and pulled

out an ornate, metal tea box from the topmost shelf.
'My piggy bank' she smiled. 'Don't let out the hiding place! Then she pressed a few
notes into Manjula's hands. 'Go ahead and buy whatever you need, dear. Have fun and
show me the painting!
Manjula Parelkar showed her first painting to her mother the very next day.
'Manjula, cried her mother dropping her needlework in surprise, 'why, that is beautiful
I didn't know you were this good!
'Do you really think so?' asked Manjula doubtfully.
"Of course, dear, she held the water-colour painting at arm's length. 'It looks perfect!
'Oh, Ma, cried Manjula pleased, 'this is just the beginning. I'll pick up fast!
I'm sure you will her mother returned the painting. You must show it to Papa. He'll
be impressed!
Mr Parelkar pushed his glasses up and glanced at Manjula's work. 'Well done. Very good.
A nice picture. See, see what all you can do. Even though he didn't look at her hands,
those claw-like malformed fingers, she knew what he meant. She swallowed dryly,
something inside her twisting painfully. She knew the pain. She was used to it. 'Keep it
up,
' her father patted her, settling into his favourite chair with the newspaper.
He enquired, 'Is the tea ready?'
'Why don't you frame it?' cried her brother Amol, snatching the sheet from
Manjula's hands.
'Or why don't you sell it?' Raising it over his head he imitated an auctioneer, 'Two
thousand rupees. Two thousand rupees. Who bids more? Two thousand one, two
thousand two ...'
"Amol' his mother warned him. 'Put that painting down at once! Tell me,
have you finished your homework?'
The word 'homework' was enough to sober Amol. He crept to his room.
Manjula returned to her brushes and paints and drifted into another world, a brighter world of glowing colour, beautiful forms and perfect shapes the world where she wanted
to belong so desperately.​
