each other. Only you have gone out of our reach! Tell me why are you living incognito?' her
friend confronted her.
'Yes, Pramila — what you say is true. Of course I'm Sarada — until you said it I could not
remember it — all the shelves of my mind were taken up with only one thing — how well I
can scrub the floors. I remembered nothing else. Had I not met you, I would have gone
mad,' said the housewife named Sarada.
Sarada returned home, climbed the attic and fished out her certificates, the pictures she had
drawn — old albums, everything she succeeded in getting out. She also searched further and
managed to find the prizes she had received in school and college. (What is My name?)
