Vyjayanthi was sitting quietly in her place during lunch break.Normally she is one person who carries cheer and laughter with her wherever she goes.Lunch breaks used to be a lively time what with Vyjayanthi cracking jokes and generally entertaining us.So I was surprised to see her sitting quietly by herself.I went to her and asked,”What is the matter?Are you not well,why don’t you go home taking permission,if you are unwell?”
She said,”No,yaar.Iam fine,something is troubling me ,I don’t know
