(Mother looks at one of Her recent photographs)
It is good. It is a recent portrait of me.
Yes, Mother.
(Mother concentrates on the photo for a long time)
Mother, what was it that You were seeing for such a long time?
I was seeing something.
Mother, what does this photo of Yours represent?
You want to know?
Yes, Mother.
Shall I write it here?
No, Mother, here, below the photo.
(Mother writes:)
