The stare was really confusing. I'll show you why it was confusing. The eyeballs were loaded with disgust yet they popped out like they were beady too. Like purple marbles with a tinge of green half crescent moon inside them. They had conjunctivitis. A fast spreading infection bothering the medical experts in the city. Beady conjunctivitis. Confusing? Pretty much.

Gooey woke up that day rubbing their eyes singing "Makeba". You're wondering how can one sing "Makeba" first thing in the morning. It can only do the backdrop of an Instagram Reel. But you Don't know Gooey. They sing through the purple hues and Monday blues. They hate chauffeurs, drivers and sailors,explorers and pilots. Why? Because they have to hate some category this day. Gooey's cook has made the great semolina mixture. Yes, you're right it's called rave upittu in South Indian cuisine. Goeey's spirit food is not rave upittu dude. It's beady eyeballs. Pluck. Pluck. Glug. Glug.
