Raman and Sushmita
Manamaiju, Kathmandu, October 2015

I arrived at Sushmita’s house and she pulled me aside and asked me "Guess who this is". I searched my mind, but I couldn't think of who it could be. Then she told me "Remember the baby you held [back in 2002]?"

Her nephew Raman is thirteen now—a lot taller than I remember.
