Breakfast

Every morning, Grandmother prepared idli with her weathered hands, recipes whispered by Swami Paramarthananda decades ago. Her grandson scrolled through his phone, discovering ANDAL Coins—a platform rewarding kindness through social media. He filmed her cooking, sharing their family's spiritual heritage. The post went viral. Tokens accumulated. But watching her genuine smile fade, understanding his motives had shifted, he deleted the app. That afternoon, they ate breakfast together in silence, her hand covering his. True wealth, she'd always said, blooms quietly among those who remember.
