Besides them, Mahadev Desai, Bapu's secretary had also being under house arrest, at this place, for nearly two years now.
Kasturba's health has been poorly deteriorating and she is having spells of breathlessness, not allowing her, even a night's sleep, in peace.
Bapu would usually be mostly silent, except a few small talks with Mahadev, or an occasional chat with Kasturba.
As for me, it was the first time, I was actually witnessing morsels of India's struggle to freedom, and also seeing Bapu, serve the nation.
February, 1944.
Kasturba passed away.
Bapu remained stoically silent.
As the pile of woods burnt ashes, I wiped a tear, off my eyes.
