"What the heck, dude? Have some shame!" Lonappan cried as he saw the commanding officer trying to hug him.
"Well, I'm just appreciating your help. There's nothing to he ashamed about, right?" Ponnappan asked.
"I'm not a huge fan of physical contact unless it's my wife or my kid. So, back off." Lonappan warned.
"Just add me into that list just this once, will ya?" Ponnappan asked as he gave a tight hug to Lonappan.
Since it was such a joyous moment for Ponnappan, Lonappan decided to let go of it just this once as asked.
"Okay, look. Never again, got it?" Lonappan asked as he pushed the commanding officer away.
"I'll think about it." Ponnappan gave out a sly smile as he replied.
"No. No thinking. I want a clear answer." Lonappan spoke in a serious tone.
"Sure. I won't do it again." Ponnappan sounded disappointed as he agreed to it.
