Now this.

He and the girl step out to the Japanese garden. The day is somewhat cloudy, with the thunder rolling lazily in the distant hills. “What a nice garden,” she says. Her face is slightly more open now, as though someone has let her out of her prison cell for fresh air. “You must spend quite some time here,” she says to Tarun.

Tarun nods, says, “Yes, it’s pleasant here.” But one is expected to say more, so he says that he’s so busy with work that he rarely comes out. He is aware of his mother’s presence at the window, watching them. She must have been instructed to stay in her room by Mahesh Uncle, lest the girl’s parents panic. It occurs to him that his mother might know more about this than he does. She might have been informed of who is coming, and given how she lurks behind the window she seems to realize that someone of consequence has been brought to the house.
