What the Fish Page #3

---

We'll see when they get married.

Why did you send him there?

There's a visitor's toilet outside.

Mom, we'll call you back.

Aunty, don't you have to leave?

Couldn't he have done it at home?

Mister, lift the seat

up before you do it.

Yes, aunty.

And, don't soil the seat.

- Yes.

'Aunty washes her

notes and sticks them.'

'She says, God knows

who have handled these notes."

'And if we wash the notes,

we won't get leprosy."

Don't touch the money,

they're all accounted for.

You should've totalled them up too.

Flush before and afterwards.

- Okay.

Done?

This is the first time"

...I'm leaving my

home for a long time.

So, whoever you are.

This house is now your responsibility.

- Yes.

Suman.

I want the toilet neat and clean.

Yes, aunty. Don't worry.

I am worried because you're here.

And, don't sleep her.

And, if you have to..

...then, take the extra

mattress below the bed..

...and sleep in the hall.

If anyone sleeps on my bed,

I develop an allergy.

Get that.

- Yes.

I always keep telling Suman, that

we shouldn't share a bed.

This is Misty.

Misty.

Are you retarded?

Misty is scared of strangers.

Don't mess with her.

This is her fish food.

See, it's written here.

"Fish food."

Feed her half a spoon every night.

Half.

- Remember, only half a spoon.

More or less upsets Misty's stomach.

Right, Misty?

Your stomach gets upset, right?

Do you?

Hello! Siphon the

water every five days.

And pour half a cap

of chlorine in clean water.

Too much of it can lead to poisoning.

Understand.

Don't worry, aunty.

I'll handle everything.

I love fish.

Stop it.

This is the money plant.

My money plant.

Five years ago I stole

it from Sheila's house.

Water it every day at 8am.

Talk to if for an hour.

Could be romantic stories.

Nursery rhymes will do as well.

"Fish is the queen of the water."

"Water is its life."

"Touch it and it gets scared..

- Take it out and it'll die."

That's how it goes?

You can rest easy, aunty.

Your house is in capable hands.

I am not your aunty.

Why don't you have a carrier?

You can't stuff all that in there.

Don't be scared, she doesn't bite.

- If you break anything".

...I'll have your car impounded.

Suman. Remember.

Feed the fish.

Water the plants.

Don't worry, aunty.

Let's go.

I think aunty liked me.

Just feed the fish

and water the plants, okay.

Don't touch anything else.

Sumit, this not for a day.

It's for a whole month.

You're worried about the house.

What about me staying

all alone here for a month?

And absolutely no friends.

No even one.

Why will my friends come here, Su?

You're just"

Cheers!

Cheers. Thanks.

You're drinking again.

- It's his birthday.
