Minutes of Madness - 08

“Your first paragraph was something about dates and you have said you don’t really remember anything correctly. Right?”

“Yeah. That’s true. I don’t remember them actually!” I said casually.

“Hmmm… may be. Now you have lot more improved memory!”

“How can I ever forget this date?” I said and carried further.

1stSeptember 2011

I couldn’t trace back the last night when I fell asleep but found Hydar still in his bed when I woke up. I thought It must have been a shorter sleep but found my clock failing me, it showed 12. Checked the window and it was not the night but noon! Woke up Hydar and was literally in top of my anger, “This day, you promised to get me to her marriage. It’s 12 now and would have been over by now. Happy you are?”

“Good Morning machi… Namakkuthookkam than da mukkiyam!!” (Sleep is quite important for everyone dude)

“Don’t make me do something I have never done!”

“Gonna drink?” he winked.

“No. Kill”

“Hey, cool da… We still have 10 more hours. We can devise a new plan still! What say?” he responded spontaneously.

I knew what he meant and had nothing to say but laugh. We laughed, laughed, laughed and finally got up. In fact, got over!

The day which I thought would be the longest was the shortest ever. I slept again after a phone call from my staff. She enquired why I was not present there at the marriage. I replied, “I slept off ma’am”. She laughed and said, “I know, don’t act!” and hung up the call. Sometimes even when we speak the truth, people comfort themselves with their own assumptions! I loved those assumptions and so didn’t mind them either. It was 8, when I woke up again after my little long nap. There were few forward messages, few broadcasted messages and was only one meant to me alone.

Sahana
Back to Madurai.

Though that could even be a forward but I know it was not.
