【Chapter 4 - No Photographs

I woke up late the next morning. 
The sun was already high.
I did not walk to the main road and catch a bus. 
All the buses go to Darpur early in the morning.
So I stayed at home on Wednesday. 
I was still very tired.
I rested and talked to the villagers about the money order.
I told them about the Identity Card and the photographer.
The school teacher said, 

'Yes, the official is correct.' 
'In a Post Office you always show your Identity Card.'

The school teacher filled in my application form for an Identity Card.
On Thursday I traveled to darpur again.
I walked to the main road and I caught a bus.
In darpur, I walked to the house of the photographer.
I knocked on the door of the house.
No one came to the door.
I knocked again loudly with my stick.
A woman opened the door.

'Who are you?' 
'What do you want?' 

She asked.
'Can I have my photographs, please? I said.

'Your photographs?' 
'I have no photographs.'

The woman replied.
'I came here on Tuesday.' 
'Where is the photographer?' I asked. 

'He's out.' 
'He's not here.'

And the woman closed the door.
I shouted at her.
'I'm waiting here for him.
After a long time the photographer came back.
He looked tired and he smelted beer.
'Give me my photographs, I said. 
'I have waited a long time for you.'
The photographer looked at me and said, 

'I don't know you, old man.' 
'What photographs are you talking about?' 

'My three photographs from my Identity Card.' 
'I paid you two pounds for them on Tuesday.' 
'Give me my photographs immediately or my money.'

'Your photographs?' 
'Your money?' 
'What are you talking about?' 

The photographer said.
