And that was only the beginning, the first step in Rakesh’s climb to the top, when he became both famous and wealthy. He went to work in the best hospitals in the USA (that was his father learnt to call it - not America, which the uneducated neighbors called it,). The American doctors said wonderful things about him, and all this was passed back to his proud family. What was more, he came back, he actually returned to that small yellow house, right at the end of the road where the rubbish lay about in smelly piles just outside the neat, well-kept gardens. To this place Rakesh returned, and the first thing he did on entering the house was a bow down and touch his father’s feet.
