The master manipulator
-----------------------------
All hell breaks loose when it is Gautham's bathing time
"Acha, Acha, no Acha, why do I bathe everyday Acha ? , stop disturbing me Acha " - Gautham cries at the top of his voice
He runs hither and thither
"Water is cold - i don't want to bathe" , he screams
"No! , it is not, may be we can set it more warmer today" , Achan says
"No!, still I don't want to bathe" , Gautham doesnot relent
<< Achan goes to the bathroom to fill the bucket >>
"Gautham!" , Achan calls again , "Come and feel the temperature for yourself"
Gautham doesnot oblige , still runs around crying
Gautham comes to Amma who is cooking in the kitchen
"Amma, please tell Achan that I don't want to bathe now"
Amma, whose focus is on the simmering Sambhar echoes what she hears
"Acha, Gautham says that he doesnot want to bathe! ", Amma cries out, to be heard
All Achan understands is that his wife is shouting from the kitchen which is not a new thing anymore after 8 years of marriage
"Gautham, what did Amma say ? ", Achan asks
"Amma asks me not to bathe!!!", Gautham answers from under the cot
He is an absolute darling at all other times
