Chapter 6 - "The Sixth Morning"

Summary of the pages 167 - 189:
Balram starts off with his continuation of telling, that he actually thought he knew Mr. Ashok. When he drove him to the Sheraton Hotel, they both got a kind of horny due to a handsame girl crossing the road, while they stood in front of a red light.
Next, he switches over to the conversation with the diseased lips servant ahead of the hotel. They talked about driver´s prospects in future, till he´s supposed to show up for his master. Balram tells, that he conversed with a book-seller about the ambitious Nexals, after he carried his lord and his foreign companion to a cinema.
After Mr. Ashok and this foreign woman boozed went to bed, Balram eavesdropped a conflict between the both of them. He suspects, that Uma - the woman - is his former lady-love.
In the end of the chapter, Mr. Ashok had a meeting with an politician´s assistent. After they took seat in the Honda of Balram and drank a couple of whiskey, this assistent nearly forced Mr. Ashok to meet a russian girl in the car, which had golden hair.
Later, when Balram wiped the car, he found a strand of her golden hair, which he still has on his desk today.
