Read Text II and answer the following question.
Text II
They were nearly born on a bus, Estha and Rahel. The car in
which Babà, their father, was taking Ammu, their mother, to
hospital in Shillong to have them, broke down on the winding teaestate road in Assam. They abandoned the car and flagged down a
crowded State Transport bus. With the queer compassion of the
very poor for the comparatively well off, or perhaps only because
they saw how hugely pregnant Ammu was, seated passengers
made room for the couple, and for the rest of the journey Estha
and Rahel’s father had to hold their mother’s stomach (with them
in it) to prevent it from wobbling. That was before they were
divorced and Ammu came back to live in Kerala.
According to Estha, if they’d been born on the bus, they’d have
got free bus rides for the rest of their lives. It wasn’t clear where
he’d got this information from, or how he knew these things, but
for years the twins harbored a faint resentment against their
parents for having diddled them out of a lifetime of free bus rides.
