Shit all over

The exact date of this incident is a mystery. But I can say it was some time when I was in high school. So it was some time mid-90s. Ah the location is Kannur in Kerala. I was in my ancestral home and it was a sunday. There were no chicken shops in our village. So I had to go down to a nearby village to get chicken. You can call this place a semi-town with loads of shops, and a B-class movie theatre. And this place was 20 minutes by bus from the house.
I went there early in the morning(Yes, 9 'o clock is early). I went down and asked for chicken. I watched with interest as he pulled out a chicken from the cage and put it down on the weighing machine. He then went on to slit its throat. The blood started gushing out and he put it into a metal container for life to fly out. I was listening to the chicken struggle in the container. And then all of a sudden, out of no where, I could feel it. I could feel the pressure. I could feel the pressure in my stomach. I thought I could manage to reach home. Suddenly I was not paying any attention to the chicken. He was finishe with the dressing and gave a packet to me. I paid him and walked back to the bus. All the while the pressure was increasing, increasing and increasing. I sat in the bus controlling. But no I could not. I got out of the bus just as the driver revved up the engine. I started walking on the road looking for a loo. None in sight. My eyes finally fell on the Theatre there. I paced myself to the theatre. I asked the gate keeper to let me in. He was a plesant fellow(thank god). I dashed off to the loo. I relieved myself and walked out a very very accomplished boy.
As I walked off from the theatre my eyes fell on the posters around "Now Showing: Ikkili(Malayalam) RAting:A".. Ok mallus know it.. But for the rest of u, well its a soft porn movie starring the evergreen Shakeela.. LOLzz. I walked out looking around, if anyone was watching me. Finally I walked out of the gates and there he was.. My neighbor staring at me with a wicked smile...
Chicken: 40rs
Bus ticket to home: 3rs
Expression on my face: Priceless???
