Uncle :  when two people meet, there are actually six people meeting, you know - the ones actually meeting, who they think they are, and who they think each other are ...

Mother : Oh yes !! of course, that's why most Indian gods have four hands each, otherwise they will be  spending all day giving handshakes  no. ...?

Uncle : No, it's not like that ....

it was obvious that Uncle's and Mother's inner animals were wildly discordant. Only circumstance enforced their company, and even circumstance was having second thoughts .
