What did Leela’s mother do when she found the gold chain in the tamarind pot? How did Mr. Sivasanker react?
Ans: Leela’s mother found the gold chain in the tamarind pot a few days later. She took it out ant washed the tamarind off the chain.
On finding the chain, Mr. and Mrs. Sivasanker did not show any regret towards their behaviour towards Sidda. Mr. Sivasanker just blamed Leela for the incident. He decided to go and inform the police about the recovery of the gold chain. But, he declined to employ Sidda again in his house. According to him, Sidda was a criminal.
“He looked at her mutely, like an animal.” – Who looked at whom? What was the situation when this occurred?
Ans: Sidda looked at Leela like an animal.
Sidda was arrested after four days of escaping from Mr. Sivasanker’s house. He was then taken to Mr. Sivasanker’s house. Leela was very happy to see Sidda again. But her parents and the police were not allowing her to go near Sidda. They asked him again about the gold chain but he said that he was not a thief and he had not stolen the chain. None believed him and the police ordered the constable to take him to the station. Leela ran behind him and cried not to take him. She clung to his hand but he looked at her mutely like an animal. He said nothing.
