Take A Balloon and Smile :)

"So, Take a Deep Breathe. Relax. Sit Back. and Hear a story. A Simple One........"

I don't really know if one of you have actually had conversation with yourself or not. Well, I did, and I usually do. And as Sober as I seem on the out, I am as confused and messed up with many questions inside.

So, yesterday, After getting back from a Date, this guy whom I had a Day-Out with Bought me a dozen of Balloon. And somehow thinking of it, I should have asked him to Drop me back, but my 2nd mind insisted, "Topsy! Take the damn Metro!"

"Phatak"!! and everyone's eye on me. I have not yet mastered the facial expression to keep when you are embarrassed and want to give that Stern Looks. So, I am standing with 11 Balloons(Thank God! At-least the thing that embarrass me helps me cover my face!). And, I have to tell you, never underestimate the GLARING and STARING ability of an Indian crowd. To my surprise they were still staring at me post 20 minute of the Burst(Such thing make me wonder, AM I HOT?).

Still Staring....


35 minutes


Still Staring...Bonus: Smiles on their face(I am not going to complain about Racism, because, Life would actually start getting boring without stories to tell your friends on what happened and how annoying that or this guy was or how hot or how not hot that guy was!)

40 Minutes

Some eyes have moved past me and caught some other Victim, but Hey! I still have fans. I have managed 4-5 eyes.

So, I am standing in VishwaVidyalaya Station for the next Train with the Staring process on. I man Up-roaches me. To Describe. this man looked like someone who was miser about smile. He has a stern look that made you think twice before smiling. And if you accidentally did, He, with his puffed muscle would smash you Dark Black and blue.

"How much are you selling them for?, he inquired
Well, When I am amazed, I hell do let the person know that I am amazed. I looked at him. To be precise, I X-Ray Him.

"How much are you selling them for?", he asked again but with heavier voice to ensure I heard him this time. I replied, "aaa...errr....hmmm....(That went for next 10-15 seconds)...ahem..I don't sell them", finally building myself back from thinking too much. "But If You Want One, i could give you. It's okay. You needn't pay me". He Looked at me for a while, and said, "Okay! Yellow one please".

He was Happy with that. His face clearly showed it. Just that he was smiling hesitatingly. The rest is yours to pre-assume why he smiled. To many, "He was probably a Gay. No wonder he took YELLOW" or to other, "Maybe he had a daughter or a son!"....and to few, who believe life is all about small, un-noticed moments that you rush passed by, would accept it as a moment that was of his own. Something as small as the balloon had that key that could bring about 1 minute true smile to his face...

Finding Happiness in smallest of thing" is what I believe in.
