It had been a busy morning, and I was late to work. Hurrying down the lane, flashing polite smiles to familiar faces (My neighbours) the only thought on my mind was, 'catching' an auto-rickshaw, when suddenly I just stopped short of bumping into someone.
I looked up to see a tall, young, handsome dude, a naughty smile playing on his lips. I gave him an irritated look, as if to say, get-out-of-my-way, but he didn't budge an inch. Au contraire, he extended his hand, still smiling. As if by magic my hand went to meet his. I tried to stop myself, but it was too late. What the hell is going on? I looked at him with an uncertain look, I was unsettled with the sudden developments. My mind was screaming, "Aren't you late? What do you think you are doing shaking hands with this stranger?"

ReplyDeleteTime to unveil the secret:P.
ReplyDeleteThe guy was one of my ex-students I had taught more than a decade ago.I knew him as a 14 yr old awkward kid, who had difficulty in getting his spellings right. Well now he has grown, and is still awkward. I was so glad to see him after such a long time. It's real fun when I meet up old students, and catch up with their lives. How time flies?
And the Winners of the contest are..Sathish and Anbu.Clap clap clap!!!
And NO! NO! NOOOOOO!!!!! Shantanu, I already have my hands full with 150 (gulp) invites:((
