Diya laughed at the joke about Sameer's stammer. Only once, only a little — but she heard herself do it. This is a story about the seat nobody wants to change.
Riya is the fastest swimmer in her class — as long as her feet can touch the bottom. Nobody knows that. Keeping it that way is becoming a full-time job.
