Question
What makes the authoress embarrassed at having made a promise that was not meant?
Solution
On encountering with Saheb, the authoress asks him go to school. Immediately at the second thought she realises that the advice must sound very hollow. On the other hand, Saheb replies that there is no school in his neighbourhood. And he will go if the authorities make one. The authoress asks half jokingly if she starts to school, will he go ? Saheb goes on asking her “Is your school ready?” she feels embarrassed at having made a promise that was not meant.
