That night after a dinner of tandoori chicken, fried rice n mutton i had a talk with some of me friends.. and went to sleep at around 12 30.. It took me time to actually fall asleep say by 1. At around 4 30 i woke up with a bad stomach twisting.. Kinda gave me an idea of what horses’ go through when they have a bout of their most dreaded fatal colic... n my palms were itching.. they were itching bad.. i tried to ignore but it started getting real wild and my palms were going numb with the itch.. then slowly my back started to itch too.. so i had to put on the light.. but palms don’t give away much in these cases coz this is not astrology.. this is itch man.. so i had no choice but wake my parents who were having the deepest of the sleeps that they cud get for little while away from tension of daily life...and told them my hands were itching but couldn’t contain it to hands coz by then my neck and back n elbow and shoulder and legs were effected too.. and my stomach was starting on the scratch me too call... n there were these hives n rashes all over.. a possibility of a touch of caterpillar came up.. and i was not so much convinced coz i wasn’t rubbing my itchy palms over my body to get it all over me. and a caterpillar kinda didnt need 4 hours to start its mischief.. coz i had been literally rolling on my bed.... so i said mite b allergy to something i had eaten coz my stomach gut was all pulling n twisting n writhing in pain.. oowwww.....
Anyway i kinda bathed in petro jelly n even changed into fresh clothes and shifted off to my fav spot when guests com n rooms r flooded to sleep thats under the dining table. Not exactly... but kinda.. and i slept off without the fan on coz the air was making me go itchy.. and then my bro who had slept thru all this havoc woke up to visit the loo.. just visit.. heee....and i woke up at him peering in the darkness to i guess make out why i was sleeping there.. how i got there actually.. and he put on the light and gave me his hand don’t know why.. but i was all like "no.. its 'chori'.." and he was like "HUH???" and i showed him the now receding rashes.. and then. thats it.
i slept upto 8 30.. that gave me a max of 3 hours sleep.. and i was all weak and tired and numb.. ya me face was affected at the chin and forehead and my lips had gone all dead outta feeling.. and i was all with scratches all over.. that gave me all the ows n oohs n aahhhsss.. of burning sensation when i had my bath..
ok then we were discussing the possible reason for this gr8 fest if not puzhu..
Umm… food allergy.. and i figured i had a Small Dab of Mayonnaise.. that was the only foreigner that had entered my stomach, that too in very tiny quantities. i had not liked it much so i didnt valichu vaari thinal that. heee... thank god if that was the reason that i dint have much of that..
then ya do u know i m scared of spiders.. damn scared.. Arachnophobia...
and there was this HUGE spider in our bathroom that night.. that fair frizzled my spine..
so amma was like what if i was pricked or had brushed with some poison from the spider.. but hey i wouldn’t b dumb to go shake hands with a SPIDER.. and what if it had bit me.. i took a look at that possibility. But as i dint have any tiny spiky hair sprouting all over my body.. nor any strong Nylon kinda thread spurting in lengths out of my wrist how hard i tried..and the fact that i couldn’t even cling on to the walls leave alone climb, b4 u ask ya… i tried that too.. ending up looking like an absolute moron stuck to the wall with 1 feet on ground n all other limbs on the wall, body included.. heeee ..... i totally erased the idea of me being the Next-gen Spider-Woman...
so lastly it came back to Mayonnaise.. ok whatever... i m not having it n have no probs in that coz i dint like the taste any way.. heee...
Well this is the classic narration of "My Tryst with the Mayonnaised Itch"
