money through a windfall. I wish to win many Green Carpets. Father’s Last Wish Before my dad died, he made s statement and in it he
said: ‘I want my body to be buried in my mother’s tomb’. I was puzzled at this statement. Then a colleague of his said: ‘it is my father’s mother
who gave him a body and in death I want to give it back to her’ My father’s mother died very early in life and he was
always in anguish about her. Bangalore Memoir I was traveling to Jakarta and I had to board my
flight from Bangalore. Before boarding, I became heavily drunk. The police came
and arrested me and took away 100$ of money. They manhandled me and, in my finger,
there was a metal insertion and that changed its position and I was in a great
deal of pain. Then my boss rebooked my ticket. I went back to Cochin and I was received
by my sister and wife. Very cunningly they took me to an asylum and I was given
an injection there and I passed out. Morning I woke up and to my sadness I realized
that I was in an asylum. The male nurses were rude and used foul language. They
also gave me beatings for no cause. The asylum run by b*****d Catholics became a
s**t-hole for me for two months. I lived there with great pain and misery. I
pray that my fate should happen to no one. © 2021 penhive |
