Today we are taking a break from the main program. This means we get to do what we want. Some have gone shopping. Angela left for Combaitore to meet some friends who now live in India. Angie, Ginny and Cathy went to look for a place to host the surprise birthday party for Mala. Shhhh... don't tell Mala.
The day was pretty quiet. I went to hang out at Roja with Marta, Sapna, Laxmi and Karishma. We played a game that involves flicking wooden coins at colored wooden coins to try to get them in the pockets at the corners of the board. My fingers were bruised by the end of the game. When I mentioned that my fingers hurt, all laughed at me and told me I was flicking the coin wrong. Why didn't I ask earlier how to flick the coin?
Oh well. Then we made some bracelets, listened to popular Hindi pop music.
Laxmi opened up to Marta and me about some her past abuses in the brothels. My heart just broke to hear how as a young girl she was so violated. How can people do this to a child!!!
