Udurawana
and the Worker
One
day Udurawana was hosting a lunch at his walawwa for
an englishman. One of his workers accidentally spilled a dish
in the dining hall and Udurawana got mad. Wanting to show off his English,
he pointed out to the garden and yelled 'get out' to the
worker.
The poor worker went out to the garden and was waiting
until he is called back. When the lunch was over, Udurawana
wanted to ask the worker to clean up, but he didn't know
how to say it in english. He didn't want to talk to the worker
in Sinhala in front of the englishman.
Udurawana
finally went
out to the garden himself, pointed at the walawwa and
yelled again 'get out'
