The poor woman reached home with a ration box

She took off her veil.
###And started preparing to cook.
The children were watching silently.
The daughter asked:
"Mom. Where did you get this ration from?"
"A big man gave it to you?"
"A big man?"
The daughter asked in shock.
"Yes. A very big man. The army, soldiers, institutions, all are under his control."

The daughter spoke in surprise.
"Such a big man gave such a small packet."
The mother nodded in affirmation.
"Yes. Doughter. Only his position was big."
The daughter fell silent. She kept thinking. Then she said.
"No one knew, Amma. That you brought this charity ration..?"
The mother shook her head in denial.
"No.. I was wearing a veil.. When I took the picture, my abaya hid my face."

The daughter was in agony.
"Mom... aren't you ashamed... having your picture taken while accepting charity..."
Mother said with a faint smile.
"No son... he didn't even notice. I was wearing a veil. He was exposed."
