An orphanage.
:56:03
Then a police officer took me home
as his adopted son.

:56:06
Why didn’t you visit me?
:56:08
I was going to, but that very week
he was transferred to Assam.

:56:12
Why didn’t you write to me?
:56:15
I did. I wrote many letters...
:56:20
...some on paper, some in my heart.
:56:25
But I couldn’t mail them.
:56:26
Why? No post office in your Assam?
:56:31
I was afraid. What if there was no reply?
:56:35
Then?
:56:37
l"d have thought that you...
:56:39
That Sufi had died and gone to heaven?
:56:42
Even if l"d gone to heaven,
l"d have left you my address.

:56:45
There’s another place people go
besides heaven...

:56:48
To hell? L"d never go there.
:56:52
You worry about yourself.
Show me your hand.

:56:54
My hand?
:56:56
I won’t bite it, l"ll just read it.
:57:00
Don’t read it.
:57:02
Do you fear your future tomorrows?
:57:06
No, my desolate yesterdays. My hell.
:57:12
Why talk like that? Now that
you’re here, l"ll take you back...

:57:17
...to our childhood in a shikara.
And heaven will return.
