No smoking

pAdukA gets back from her first day at her summer camp.

pAdukA - ammA, you cannot smoke near me.Go away... smoke away from me!
ammA - uh?
pAdukA - My teacher has told me to tell mommy and daddy to smoke in a corner and not near me.
ammA - enna? (What?)
ammA - smoking na enna theriyumA? (Do you know what smoking is?)
pAdukA gesturing breathing says - idhu dhaan (This is it)
ammA - That's breathing.
ammA thinking to herself  - I thought I had a long time but I have to get ready in a hurry to answer many things starting with smoking!
