moments with the hugging man

i think lakshmi thinks that she owns this man a debt because surely he was not like the others. i know this because on page 176-177, it stated that this man was clean ,gentle and young, different fom the others that always forces lakshmi to have sex with them.it also stated how lakshmi feels that she trust the custimer so she held him close also. she seemed so into the customer that she was the last to let go.the man payed his 30 rupees, to be with a prostitue, but instead, he used it for a hug. this shows that lakshmi own him a debt because he didnt do what she thought usaul men do to her. she wants him to come back so she could pay him back. the man unlike the others gave her a piece of happiness. the hug probably let lakshmi remember the hug and touch of her family and ama. the stranger was somebody she kept in mind.
