Question 1: The three phases of the author’s relationship with his grandmother before he left the country to study abroad.
Answer:
The first phase begins in their village. The grandmother used to wake him up in the morning and takes care of all the needs of the author. She used to get him ready for the school and prepares breakfast for him and she takes him to the school daily where she sit in a temple near to the school and while returning home they used to feed chapattis to the village dogs.
The second phase begins when they shifted to city where a distance in their relationship comes between them as the author used to go to his school by motor bus and started learning music which was not at all okay in the perspective of his grandmother as she likes only spirituals songs.
The third phase is quiet painful for both author and his grandmother as the author went to abroad for further studies and the common link of their relationship was snapped and his grandmother used to stay in his room, feeding sparrows, chanting spirituals and praying with beads. She was totally alone at that time and in the end she died.
