Road was so muddy and it was slippery making it difficult to ride a bike So, Chandani had to go on foot to reach the house. Deepika was living at Udugedara Estate, Bulugahakoratuwa, Wekada, Midigama in Matara district.
Midigama is a remote location nearly 150 Kms away from Colombo. Most of the people in the village made living either by fishing or fisheries industry related laboring. Most of the families never had any permanent jobs or business other than being labors for boat owners. The smell of dry fish blowing with the sea breeze reminded chandani the area is popular for dry fish. However the drizzle put the dry fish makers into trouble. Production of dried fish was one of the major income source of the families in Midigama. Deepika was not at home when chandani reached. Chandani found some times it is difficult to get through to her as mobile networks does not function properly in this remote location. Upon her arrival one of her neighbors went to inform deepika of Chandani
