You’re never too young

I just bumped into one of the local kids, 3-year-old Fateha. She was eating paan. Her whole mouth was red and she even spat out the excess saliva like a seasoned, toothless paan eater. I’m not sure how much of a habit this is for her, but I fear for her beautiful white teeth and winning smile.

Although, come to think of it, her teeth are going to fall out in a few years anyway, so she might as well make the most of it now.
