Being religious?

G: That diya looks nice.

M: We could light it everyday.

G: Sure, it looks pretty only.

M: Everyday you must pray in front of it in the morning.  Fold your hands and say a silent prayer.

G: Huh?  No. You know I can't do such things.

M: We have done none of this.  But it has all happened.  We never wanted the diya or the idol but they've both sort of come together.

G: Eh?

M: Fine.  I'll remove it if you don't want to pray.

G: No no.  Fine.  I'll do it.
