The winners


"Baba, if I, Shoumik, Prateek and Neil had a race, who would win?", Sahil asked one day.

"Shoumik.", I said.

"And if you and all their Dads had a race, who would win?", he continued.

"Shoumik's dad.", I answered.

"And what if Aai and the other Moms had a race, who would win?", he went on.

"I don't know.", I didn't venture a guess.

He thought for a moment and answered his own question...

"I know. Nobody! They will just stand there, talking."
