People I talk to are always almost out of their senses. I have always thought that nothing comical can happen near an ATM. It’s a simple place ….right? But considering the people I attract, (In the sense, they come and talk to me in a platonic way…. No complaints here….seriously) I should have expected it that morning. I had gone there to draw out the last 500 rupees remaining in my account. A guy was standing outside and THINKING!!!!.... An odd place to be preoccupied with one’s thoughts…. Right? … I decided to mind my own business this time. I went, inserted my card to open the door. And the door refused to open. That is when this guy started talking to me. He told me that he has not been able to open the door for quite some time. I said OHO and tried my luck with the door again. This time he started rambling about his riches.
Guy: “naanallam anju laksham vechurukkaen.. enakkae thorakkala”…
Me: neenga panakaarar dhan othukarraen “illa sir.. evlo panam vechurrukkomgaradhu mukkiyam illa… indha door namma card insert pannadhum thorakkanum”
Guy: “adha dhan naanum sollraen…Anju lakshathukkae thorakkalanna ungallukku ellam thorandhuduma”
Me: nasama pochu “ sir adhavadhu, indha card key maathiri work pannanum. Card pottadhum door pakkathula irrukkara green light eriyum… appuram door a push panna thorakkanum”
Guy: “adha dhan naanum solraen… anju latcham vechurukkara en cardukkae thorakkalanna unga cardukku eppadeenga thorakkum”
Me: This is when I realized that there was no point reasoning with him. He seemed to be an intellectual pannakaran. “ aama sir neenga solradhu correct dhan… naan varaen… neengalae try panni enjoy the day pannunga”
May he is right… I should try that door after I have earned at least 5 lakhs… Spider man tamil version la solar maathiri, “ engaendhu dhaan varanugalo”
