The next day morning Reena was woken up by Gayu's little sister nandhini with a huge tumbler of tea  in her hand.Reena didn't wanna wake up and just wanted to go back to sleep but Nandhini insisted that her Amma had specifically told her to wake Reena up and tell her to get ready because today was the day when they had to go to the temple.
Reena:temple ?what temple are we going to ?why didn't aunty tell me this before ?!
Nandhini: Akka in our town it's a tradition of ours where on the day of ashtami we are supposed to go to the old temple by the banyan tree and offer our prayers to the God Veerakarupan.It's been believed since ancient times that only on the day of ashtami ,The ferocious God Veerakarupan comes down to earth and settles himself inside that temple near the banyan tree where he would grace us with his blessings and traditions dictate us to do a special pooja in his name so that his anger could be cooled down a bit otherwise instead of showering us with blessings ,he would take a violent form and punish us.
(Reena started laughing when she heard all this )
Reena:what nonsense Nandhini!I don't believe what I'm hearing.You mean that ruined old temple by the banyan tree is where your God comes and settles in once in a while  .My goodness.You should hear yourself.You are sounding like a crazy person.
Nandhini: Akka please stop laughing .Don't belittle our traditions just because you don't believe in this.
Reena:okay okay,cool down .I won't laugh anymore.
Nandhini.Okay Akka .I'm going downstairs now .Please get dressed soon.everybody's waiting for you .
Saying this Nandhini left the room leaving a baffled Reena behind..
