'Hello?'

'New I swear...!'

'I am okay, I am okay..... don't shout.'

'Where are you?'

'I am at the airport.'

'Airport! Why!'

'Where are you?'

'Of course at the bus terminal! But why are you at the airport!'

'Ah! Just a misunderstanding.....I....took the wrong bus..'

'How even that's possible!'

I was drunk.....I think these local booze are really good.

'Don't ask....I was sleepy and tired so...'

'Are you drunk!'

'What....oh...nah....I am not..' I scratched my head.

Actually I am feeling sleepy again....

'You are unbelievable! You bought alcohol at the night market..right?...I was a fool...'

'Come and get me. I bought two bottles and they are already gone...now I am having a headache too.' I said truthfully.

'Don't take any medicine understand? I am coming. Excuse me....I need a cab...'

He was talking to someone else.

'Luke....the thing is..... nevermind..' I already took some medicine..but I don't want him to get mad.

'What is it?'

'Nothing....I need to pee.'

'Wait for me there. Don't you dare to move! Understand? Don't go anywhere...'

'Mn. Okay.'

'Where are you exactly? Tell me a landmark.'

'In a gift shop ......near....gate number....3A.' I wasn't sure so randomly told a number.

'My shop is near gate number 1C and he is very drunk.' The shop owner took the phone from my hand and told.

Drunk! Who, me? Huh! I am just sleepy that's all and a little bit hungry....Mnnnn....I want to eat fish....

'He is behaving oddly....'

I am just standing here quietly! What odd behaviour?

'He is trying to catch my pet fish.'

'.......'

'Yes, from the aquarium....'

'.........'

'I think he is hungry.'

Oh. I silently took out my hand from the tank and wiped the water on my pants.

Yes, I am hungry......I want to eat fish....or egg...

'Please hurry up....now he is looking at a packet of golf balls....I think he is planning to eat them too.' The owner complained.

Golf balls? Those are not eggs....but balls? Oh.

I stretched my hand and asked for the phone.

'Luke? I am hungry....' I shyly admitted.

'New... listen to me carefully, okay?' His voice was trembling. Don't be so anxious, I am fine. Totally fine.

'What?' I sat on the bench near the counter. The owner was looking at me with concern.

'Have you or have you not taken any medicine? Tell me truthfully.'

'Ummmm....'

'While drinking?'
