PART 2 · LESSON 19 OF 30 · 30 MINUTES

Aunty ji

The gate of the building on an evening, the neighbour from the first floor: so you're the one downstairs, it seems a restaurant will open, I've heard foreigners cook spicy, I cook Dadi ji's recipes, it seems the drilling will go on many days, just two more days, perhaps, they say the lane stays awake at night, it seems you sleep early, I sleep lightly but no problem at all.
