The story is told from the point of view of a small girl who is the niece of the protagonist, Begum Jan. Begum Jan has had a very depressing life after marriage.

She is the narrator's aunt.
- Begum is the story's main antagonist and the narrator's aunt.
- She was a stunning woman married to a nawab, who later discovers that her husband is uninterested in her and prefers to spend time with young men behind closed doors.
- Her life is told through the eyes of her little niece, who is eight years old.
- To hide the story's obscenity while revealing concerns of wedding, sexuality, and patriarchy, the author utilised a kid narrator.
