Chapter Summaries & Analyses
In the morning, Kabir misses everyone in prison and wonders what they’re doing, but he’s glad he doesn’t have to wait for guards to unlock doors or give him permission to go places. Kabir asks why Rani is alone, but she says she’s not alone because she has Jay. She uses a slingshot to kill a crow for breakfast, but Kabir won’t eat that either, so she shows him tamarind and guava trees.
Rani and Kabir wash at the public restroom again. They then go “to work,” which for Rani means telling fortunes on a busy street corner. She sets up some cards and explains to Kabir that other people assume that Roma people have magic powers, which is why people are willing to pay her for fortunes.
A man stops and asks for his fortune. Rani knows he’s a teacher of Hindi and says he’ll be getting money soon but another man will try to take it.
