in this setting?
The woman is nice to the narrator.
The milk is greasy
“And what's this stuff?" I looked dubiously at the glass of
thick, white liquid.
"Cow's milk."
I almost made a face but caught myself. “But that's cow
urine."
"No, no, stupid. Milk comes from the cow's udders. Now
drink it. You must not offend the lady."
I glanced at the demoness. She smiled at me. It was nice
of her to think of me as a demon child - I guess. I sipped
the liquid and managed not to make a face at the awful,
greasy taste.
The narrator's father calls him stupid.
The narrator refers to white people as demons.
