We'd set off from Kochi a trifle past lunchtime. The weather was oppressively hot but mom and Rema kept us in splits recounting their experiences over the past few days, nay weeks!
All of a sudden, a young boy on his gleaming but horribly painted bike overtook us, looking at me menacingly, and drove off ahead at an incredibly high speed at that narrow stretch(thanks to widening work in progress) only to return on the reciprocal and showed faces at me before driving off, with a triumphant look! Wonder why he did that?
We reached home by about a quarter to 8 - what with the electricity loadshedding on - after picking up sundries enroute. And it was time to get down to brasstacks and do some spring cleaning as the house was closed for almost a week....... We're dog tired at the end of it all.
But it gave us a tremendous sense of happiness. Like the times of old when everyone was around!
