I absolutely loved this short story! Kaushik, a college student, is dumbfounded when his father marries a younger woman with two small girls a few years after his mother's death. He goes home for winter break, and he's now a guest in his own home, with the two girls taking over his old room, memories of his mother coming back to him, and a new woman there replacing his mother. 

Set over the winter break, Kaushik is easy to identify with, and your heart hurts for him.
