Comrade K. N. M. Pillai has lived beside Rahel and Estha's house for a long time. He used to be kind to Rahel and Estha. Even though, Esthat is not answering to his questions. However, Comrade K. N. M. Pillai does not care even if he cannot make any conversation. Moreover, when Rahel came back to Ayemenem after divorced, Pillai tried to make conversation with Rahel. I'm not saying he is good or not, but I'm saying why he wants to have conversation with Rahel or Estha? Both of them are not helpful for him. Phillai is kind of a communist(?), and I think he has something in his mind by keep in touch with Rahel and Estha because they are children's of fairly powerful person in that county.

I think that he knows that the twins are connected somehow and he is trying to keep track of what one twin is thinking to the other. If he knows that one twin is not talking and the other has nothing to say, then he will probably think that they as a whole will be difficult to talk with. And he will probably have less respect for both of them.
