Fan died. Phone at 22 percent. Two of us wants a mall. I want not to panic. 26 Aug, Hiriketiya.

Sit it out if it is an ordinary cut. Walk to Kosgoda if you need a charge and a drink. Do not invent an island blackout from one lane. Hiriketiya cuts happen. Shops with generators exist. Ask, do not announce a crisis at the desk.

It came back in forty minutes. Fine. We sat tea.

Kids: walk to a lit sit. Waiting in a dark hot room is a mood.

Do not follow a stranger to a 'fast charge'.
