After several hours, as Kish nursed his aching body, the policeman asked him if he wanted to contact anyone. Kish named Adda Krishnamurthi of Nirmila Nivasam. “Tell him I’m the adopted son of his best friend.”

Adda was struck with remembrance as he walked past the row of whitewashed cells. Twenty years ago, he’d put up bail for Amir, who had been arrested in a milk strike. It would have been a harmless event except for Amir’s record. The fact that he’d participated in the strike at all still puzzled Adda, for better pay was already under negotiation and Amir’s presence hardly needed. Amir wouldn’t talk to him as they walked out of the prison courtyard, and Adda thought that his friend was merely embarrassed at such a rash act. Adda remembered how blinding the sun had been that day, his face wet with heat, the surliness of the guard as he let them pass. Two days later, Amir left Madhupur without a word to anyone.
