Sunil is losing sleep

Meenakshi, your comment was a nice wake up call.

Sunil has indeed gone somewhere.
Sunil is now in Chennai, the city of bad sewers and really bad lodges.
Sunil can't sleep at night because he misses his parents and friends. Yes, even though he is 30 years old.
Sunil can't sleep because his bed is infested with bugs and other creatures of the night.
So Sunil comforts himself with some new books and old port wine.
Yet, Sunil is lonely. Tired. And a bit melodramatic (which is why he is writing like this).

Look at him, savouring one last moment of triumph in Trivandrum. Searching for the meaning of life in a can of Pepsi.

Silly Sunil.

Meenakshi said...

hmmm...

i think you were the one who liked to be lonely...

anyways...the look seemed more like a sneer...; as if challenging the can of pepsi to withhold the power of the "golden" coloured liquid in the glasses and the bottle.

also, even the Silly Sunil writes well. So keep going at it.
