Chickened by Chickenpox

Chicken pox is quite popular in Chennai, became really popular when two of my room mates got caught by it.This dreaded disease is freaking everybody out here, including me.

"Tommy"(my buddy, first victim), was feeling very frail and drowsy, the other night.He didn't talk to us for very long that day and never complained of any illness.I thought he was just back into his very popular mood swings.He woke up in the morning as usual, no complaints yet.

Dressed up, he went to work and realized he had itching sensation on his hands.By afternoon, the symptoms were showing up.He developed lot of little rashes on his hands and went for a checkup at the clinic.As soon as the word was into his ears, he rushed home.Took the flight to Hyderabad, because he couldn't get a train or bus ticket and still has not come back yet.

In the "Bruce lee"(my buddy, second victim) case, he had much more pronounced symptoms and had fever too.Today morning he packed and went home.All this happenings and me, myself standing a chance to rendezvous with chicken pox, along with my other mates, make me feel hypochondriac.

So people please be careful !!


p.s

Tommy and Bruce lee are nicknames of Sainath and Subhash respectively.
