I pretty much did not do much today. We went to the Borders Bookstore at the Cambridgeside Galleria to get some books that my uncle needed. Time really flies, cos after that, we went to South Station to pick up "the suspect." I am not sure why I call him the suspect, maybe it is because I know my uncle would interrogate him later. See, the suspect wants to marry my cousin and unknown to my cousin, her father has decided to check the guy out himself face to face!!

The suspect did not help his credibility to start out. He missed his bus in New Jersey and gave a convoluted explanation as to why that happened. After getting on another bus, when the bus stopped in Framingham, Massachusetts, he got of to take a leak and missed the departure of the bus to Boston. So when he called frantically, he was in a taxi to Boston!!! Not a good way to start or impress. When he arrived, we adhered to the code of interrogation and took him to the fattening house (Penang Restaurant). He was well fed and despite the absence of alcohol, his tongue was loosened as well. We then took him to the Chambers at Harbor Point for the main grilling. Lets just say, he let loose there and sometimes, I wondered if he made sense to himself!! These things take time and before I knew it, it was 7pm and we had to drop him off at South Station. I had to remind him not to take a leak on the way or get off the bus for any other reason.

I went back home, watched TV with Chisom who had come to visit!! For myself, it was not much of a day since I did not do the things I had planned for myself, but the things you do for family, o well.!! Tomorrow is another day
