The mallu quandry

'To be or not to be' . Bold words by a mallu. His accent may have betrayed his true intentions but none could mistake the look in his eyes. Could deliverance have deceived him. could he have come this far to be betrayed by the unholiest of sights. Nothing had prepared him for what he was facing. He braced himself and there it was relief. Never again would he drink a glass of water before leaving home. Never again would he trust the government to satisfy his most basic needs. He had learnt his lessons. Life is after all a tough taskmaster.
