I was fighting with Apache SSL. That time I’d a slight cold. A little breathing trouble also. Sanjith looked at me. I told it is Swine flu. A few heads turned back from the students section! After some sneezing, I left the Apache and went room. Roomies stared making fun of me. I took some paracetamol and slept.
In the evening, Director Vivek entered the room. Seeing me he told, “This is swine flu, you are going to die.” I looked his eyes. There was so much confidence in those. I started doubting myself.
Next two days I took sick leave! I was laying in the bed. Mob rang. It was a student.
Me :Hello
Student: Hello sir. When is class today?
Me: I’m having fever. I’m not coming today. Ask Sanjith.
Student: Ok sir. Take 2 weeks leave sir. Don’t come to institute.
Hung up!
After sometime,
It was another one.
Me: Hello
Student: Hello. Heard today is Windows class. When is it sir.
Me: I’m sick. I’m not coming today. I’ve no idea. Ask Sanjith.
Student: Fever? U saw doctor? Go home sir. Don’t come to class.
I decided to go home!! But 2 drinkers came from Chennai and Hyderabad just for fun! I decided to go after two days. Of course they had lot of fun!!
Next day the news of the death of Bangalore lady came. In the evening I found myself in the bus. Seeing my runny nose, guy next to me stared me for a sec. As if he is looking at a pig. I told it is just cold. I tested. I could saw relax in his face.
I reached home and started treatment under mom and dad. I heard it costs 10k to test H1N1 in Kerala. Next moment my fever is gone. But after the first vomiting, I decided to consult a doctor. Examining the x-ray doctor said it is because of sinusitis. Got medicines and now I’m fine.
In Bangalore all was wearing Masks! In Kerala I found none with that. One guy in Bangalore was wearing mask inside his air conditioned Innova!! I recalled old memories of how the road got blocked in our small village after the threat of Tsunami!!
oooh! It has really become a deadly terror everywhere! :P
ReplyDeleteHope you are fine now! :)
P.S You are a teacher? But your about me says otherwise... eh? :P ;)
Hehe its a long story. I came Bangalore to do a course in Linux. RHCE. And when I completed it, they asked me whether I can teach or not. So I became a teacher. Now I've only a few back papers. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd ya I'm fine now.
Good that you recovered.....
ReplyDeleteLast time when I was traveling in train everyone except me was wearing the mask ...they all threw weird glances at me as if I'm infected and want to spread it there.
