It was a Monday night around 11 o'clock. A very hard day at work for Silent Listener. She set out for the cab after her database delivery. After 30 minutes travel, the cab came to a halt near Maharaja hotel. Silent Listener asked the cab driver to drop her at her guest house which was just two streets away from the stop. Cab driver mumbled something in Kanada which she understood as his disagreement to her request. Many like Silent Listener are often relocated to Bangalore and are taken for granted to work in ungodly hours at office as they are on a "RELOCATION". Some are gifted with guest houses near EC office. But many like our Silent Listener end up getting accomodated in nooks of the city making it difficult for them to travel to and fro to EC. Having failed in the attempt to persuade the cab man, Silent Listener stepped down the office cab near Maharaja hotel.
Silent Listener started to walk on the road. Fear gripped her heart as she was alone on the road. She suddenly came across a diabolical figure typically a quadruped with charcoal colored skin and curved horns ( by this time you might have figured out what the diabolical being was, if not answer is in the P.S.) which caught her eyes. This diabolical figure was about 5 foot tall and was also gazing at our Silent Listener. Her heart started to palpitate. She set off literally running towards her guest house as fast as her legs could carry her. She could feel that the diabolical figure was after her. She left the real "Yema Dharma raj" was menacing her.
Thank goodness, Silent Listener found a small telephone or internet or the electrical box(typical of the ones found profoundly on the roadsides of any metropolis). For a moment, she thought it was her haven for next few minutes. Behind the box, heart still palpitating Silent listener peered to the road. She found the diabolical figure still proceeding forward. The diabolical figure crossed the Silent Listener's haven and ran straight down the street. Releived of the fear, Silent Listener slowly crept out of her haven and proceeded towards her guest house. She thought silently "Nalla vela adu nambala pidika varala.. Nalaiku epadiyavathu sekiram kilambanum officela irunthu!!" (Good time..It did not run to capture me!! Tomorrow I should somehow leave the office early). With a sigh of relief, Silent Listener entered her guest house and reached out for the bed for a good night's sleep. The next day broke, bright and sunny, only to find that Silent Listener was going to be late home that day too..!!!
P.S.
