A Timid Kid

Its 7:00 pm, and I'm going to take shower, I said dii taking my phone from the table.
Yes, this the time when I get cold water from supply pipelines and the water in the tank becomes so hot that eggs can be boiled in that water because its quite hotter here in Delhi.

Mama, I am also coming with you, Daksh said running  towards me.
Why, I'm just coming in half an hour, I'm going just to take shower, I said.
Yes, I was at my dii's place and was ready to come to my place.
I'm coming, I'm coming......he repeated several times.
Okay, lets go, I said because its quite hard to handle a kid.

Hold me tightly, otherwise you'll fall down, I said Daksh, who was siting behind me on my bike.
Mama, look, I'm not a small kid now, he said streching his small arms.
What the hell, are you nuts, I told you to hold me tightly, and what the hell are you doing, you'll fall down, I shouted in a single breathe.
I've not fallen, he said chuckling.
Yes, its quite hard to handle a kid, because they do what they want to do and whenever you want to stop  them from doing anything wrong then they take more interests in those stuffs without fearing. Generally kids are not bashful because they are not aware of the outcomes of their deeds. And its good for you when you don't care the results of any of deeds because its 85% chances of your success when you don't bother the outcome stuffs as I've experienced for the last 15 years of my life from my 20 years because I was like Daksh in the first five years of my life.

First buy me some chocolates, then I'll go to your place, Daksh said running towards a shop, which is in front of my house.
Five doublemint chewing gums and five boomers, he asked the shopkeeper  to give.
Anything more, I asked Daksh.
Nopes, its over now, we'll buy more while returning home, he said.

Oh, mama, your flat is so hot, he said as I unlocked the door.
Don't you have AC, he flashed the second question.
Nopes, go and sit near the cooler, I said him switching on the fan, room cooler and light at a time.
Its I-Pod, so you listen songs while studying, he asked holding my I-Pod in his tiny hands.
What are you doing, you'll get electric shocks, I shouted as he was playing with the extension electric board which was on.
Mama, give me some water please, I'm thirsty, he said finishing his third doublemint chewin gum.
Don't you have RO, he asked me holding the water bottle in his hands.
Yes, he has the habit of drinking water from RO, the water purifier, but I don't have it at my place.
Don't you have TV, I've to watch some movies, he asked.
Yes, I don't have TV, because Daksh's dad has warned me to reduce my pocket money if I buy it because he has given me this flat only for studys not for fun.

Hey, take this white drawing sheet and start drawing, I said giving him some drawing sheets and color pencils. I've bought some white drawing sheets and color pencils for him only because he visits my place with his mom every Sunday and he loves drawing the most. Its quite interesting to see the arts and creations of
drawing in this small five year kid and I'm a big fan of his drawings.

No drawing today, let me watch some movies in your laptop, he said putting the sheets and pencils aside.
Okay, which one, Batman or Bal Ganesha, I asked him switching on my laptop.
Spiderman, he said.
Here is your Spiderman animated series, I said helping him siting on the chair because the chair was a little bit higher for him.

What are you doing, you are not bathing, he said pushing the bathroom door.
After brush, I'll take it, go and watch the movie, I said.
He started asking about the hand wash, the shaving gel, the soaps, the tooth paste, the face wash etc. one by one.
Lizard Lizard, he started shouting. I started chasing the lizard as the lizard was smart enough and crawled fast towards the roof.
Don't you have lizard spray, he asked.
Nopes, go and sit there, I ordered. He didn't go and started giving me the chewed chewing gums to throw them out as he didn't want to go out alone.
Yes, he is a timid kid, and then he started playing with the water. I knew he was not going out of bathroom till I'd have finished the shower. So I pulled sofa near the bathroom door for him but  that hardly worked there.

Mama, give me your wash basin, he said.
Why, I asked.
Because its small and lovely and mine is bigger one, he answered..............


I'm very happy for the feedbacks that you readers post on my facebook profile.
Thank you.

Small Kids in The Sabzi Market

One green and one bigger pink bag from kitchen and be fast, I'm waiting near parking, dii said loudly and vanished.
I'm also coming, just wait for a while, Daksh said coming towards me.
I'm going nowhere, go and watch Tom & Jerry on the Cartoon Network, I said to Daksh.
I'm also coming with you and give my shoes, Daksh counter attacked.
Dii, can you hear me, look at Daksh, he also wants to come with us, ask him to stay at home, I shouted.
Shut up, here is my shoes, come and help me wearing it, Daksh told holding his  small shoes in his small hands.
You disturbed a lot last time, so forget this time, you are not going, I said.
Mommy, look at him, he is not helping wearing my shoes, Daksh shouted. He always does this when he wants anything from me.
Okay, first promise me, you wont disturb today, and will stay calm there, I said to him.

Yes, Daksh is my dii's kid, who is a five years old, but he talks as if he is in the late eighties. And I love him the most and he knows this thats why he rules over me.
It took five minutes to convince him, but my words hardly matter to him all the time.


Tamater,tamatar, nimbu nimbu, aloo, aloo, the mixed noise started reaching my ears.
Yes, we had reached the Sabzi market.
  Bhindi, bhindi le lo,15 bucks for half kg. and 30 for one kg, isse angreji me kehte hai ladys' finger, one sabzi walah was shouting as if he was there only to shout and teach vocabulary and not to sell his items.
Dii started bargaining  near a sabzi walah and I started tesing Daksh.
Aww, Daksh kicked me and went near his mommy and started mixing Bhindi with beans ans beans with other vegetables. I hardly speak at this place because I just go there to carry heavy bags loaded with vegetables.

Hey hi, I said to a small girl touching her chin.
She gazed at me and shook hand..
Whats your name honey, I asked.
Bebo, not honey, she answered.
Okay, Bebo, I said.  Bebo was around three years old.
Daksh, come here, see she is Bebo, say hi, I asked him.
Hi, Daksh said to Bebo.
Bebo beta, he is your bhaiya, shake hand, an old lady said, who was holding a baby trolly, but the baby was standing and trolly was full of vegetables. I think she was Bebo's granny.
Bebo offered hand shake but Daksh was no more interested, I don't know why he did so. The two kids started mixing up. I had a little conversation with Bebo's granny about the kids. Bebo's mom and dii were busy in bargaining and buying the vegetables.
Lets go to fruit wale, dii said turning back and putting few poly bags full of veg into my bag.
Poly bags have been banned here in Delhi but it hardly matters for the Sabzi market.
Oh, its heavier now, can't you buy vegetables daily, I said.
Daksh say bye to Bebo, I asked him.

Mango, Apple,Litchis, jambun....
Bhaiya, hows Litchis, dii asked.
150 buks for one kg, fruit wale bhaiya replied.
Okay, one kg from all items, dii said.
Hey, what are you doing, I asked Daksh pulling him as he was mixing the fruits with each other.
Leave me, he said and went near his mommy.
I was standing behind dii and exchanging the heavy bags from left to right hand.

Take the rest, Daksh said to the fruit walah, taking one from each items. Now we don't need  more, he continued..............

The 1st Day of My Exam

Where are you, we are getting late, I sent this sms to Pawan, who kept me waiting near Pitampura under the rude and scorching sun, which was going to raise the mercury above 47 degree C and boil Delhi.
M on rd lyt, vil rch in 2min.
Yes, this was the Pawan's reply. I don't know why people use such short forms while smsing as it takes more time to think about short forms while typing any short sms and it again takes more time to use more brains to understand these short words.

Come in you ass, can't you smoke after exam, we are already late, Pawan was shouting pressing his horn continuously and Shalabh, so called stud had already taken the front seat.
Drive as fast as possible, I said to Pawan taking the back seat.
You, mr. so called stud, use seat belt, I said to Shalabh from behind as he was busy in going through the notes.
Shut up, and take some parathas from my bag, Pawan said to me as I was flipping the pages of the book like Kalidas who used to see the pages once and learnt evrything just by seeing once. Kalidas was a stud in the indian history but I'm not mr. Kalidas, it was the exam stress which forced me to do so.

What the hell, its traffic jam, its huge jam, Pawan said.
I think red light is not working well, I said.
Lets try another way right from sector-18, I continued.
Nopes, if we go through that one we'll be fuking late, let me try, Pawan said pressing his horn.
Thank god, today we'll be off exams, no more headache now, I uttered.
Can't you please shut up, you d**k head, Pawan shouted.
We got stuck in the huge traffic as the cars, bikes and buses surrounded as Pawan was trying the wrong side. You, mother f**ker, you scolded me, don't you know me, a bike wale bhaiya was shouting on a car wale uncle jii but the scene changed when the car wale uncle jii came out of his car and slapped a huge one on the face of the bike wale bhaiya, so the whole crowd gathered there and I was also interested and I don't like to miss such fights.
After 15 minutes Pawan took out the car from that interseting but heavy traffic and headed towards sector-13.
Which side, Pawan asked me.
Buddy, I can't remember exactly but we have to take right turn from one red light, I said.
Wow, you are driving nicely today, I said as I heard the sound of the skidding tyres of our car when the car was being turned right at the speed no lesser than 100 kmph.
Can't you stop your fukin mouth for a while, Pawan said adjusting his specs.
Ohh shitt, it was another red light, where we have reached, its wrong way, I said.
So, U-turn, right, you asshole, you live here and you don't have any idea about the roads, Pawan said showing his wrist watch towards me.

Hey buddy, you are not getting admit card, Sandy said to me as I was revising the book fastly like mr. Kalidas. All the best you all, I am getting late and you mr. stud, you are not getting admit card, Vikas told me throwing his bag into the car.
I came out of the car and rushed toward the college bus where admit cards were distributed.
Hey, you didn't deposit the training fees, so they are not giving you admit card, one of the guys from a group said to me. Few were laughing at me and few studs were gazing at me as if I would have commited one huge mistake. One offered hand sake but I avoided him, it was Gyan, I think but I was concentrating towards the bus.
Sir, my admit card, I asked a teacher who had those f**king cards in his hand.
You are late, where were you, the teacher asked showing his eyebrows. Put your sign here, he continued.
I took the sheet from his hand and flashed my sign right there infront of my name.
Hey, you've not deposited the training fees so you will not be allowed in the exam, he said.
Sir, I'll pay tomorrow, just give my admit card, I am late, its already 10:15, and paper had started at 10:00.
I could have, but I can't give it to you, because its your case and the college management has asked me to be strict on this issue so go home, the idiot said to me.
Great, don't give me sir, I'm leaving my 1st exam, i'm going home, I said and ran away.
Your wish, the idiot replied fastly.

You are so late, show me your admit card, the guard asked me at the entrance.
Its in university, I'll be getting it tomorrow my college management has told me, I said.
Yes, I lied.  I hate lying but..........
 Okay, first go to examination control room right there on the first froor in room no. 212, the guard said pointing his index finger towards the first floor.

Good moring sir, I have no admit card, as I have not deposited my training fees, I'll deposit it tomorrow, so please allow me now, I'm already half an hour late, I said in a single breathe to the  head exam controller.
Smart, huh, I'm not letting you sit in the exam, go and stand in the corner there for half an hour, the head controller told me.
Sir, please, its emec, its a tuff and time cosuming subject, so please......
I said shut up and stand in the corner, the pig shouted at me clicking the mouse of his pc.

Why I have wasted all those training fees on cinemas and restourants, i could have deposited it on time when dad gave me, its my fault, fuk that traing, I don't wanna any traing from college, let me revise some formulae, but how will ask dad for more money, ohh god, I've to lie again.
Come here, a voice reached my ears suddenly as I was busy in those imaginations.
Show me your pocket, have you brought any farra, one of the members asked me.
Sir, my seat is in front in the second row, as I've seen on the board outside, so I can't cheat siting infront of the invigilator, I said again in a single breathe.
Wow, look at him, he is not lying as no one can cheat infront of invigilator, how kind he is, one ma'am from the eight members said smiling.
It means you'll cheat if you are allowed to sit on the back seat, one balded member said floating his hand on his shining head.
Peon, come here and go with this mr. kind to his exam hall and ask the invigilator not to disturb him, the head controller said flashing a blank form infront of me.
I filled the form in few seconds and...............

Temperature Difference & The Hot Discussion

It was a little bit dark when I left home at 5:15am for jogging.
Yes, its quite early but I have to leave my home at this time because its become quite harder to jog after 6:30am beacuase of the rising mercury day by day.
What the hell, its still so hot, its month of May and these are the hottest days of May as the news channels say, I was thinking and walking speedly towards the park.

Wow, its better here, the temperature deeped around 7 to 8 degrees suddenly.
Yes, I reached the Japnese park and it felt like no lesser than heaven. I think this great temperature difference was due to the trees, the ponds and the fresh atmosphere. So I was feeling relaxed while jogging. The fountains started at the same moment and added a lot in the coolness of the atmosphere.

As I was returning after jogging and few exercises, I heard two oldmen were discussing something about migration type stuffs.
Look at the indians, they like to go abroad as a begger they don't love to work here in India.
Yes, one uncle was charging the young indians who fly abroad to earn extra money.
Yeah, you are right, but don't you think they get more money there than India, the other uncle interrupted.
As the disussion was turning hot, I was getting interested.
See, how the young  engineers, doctors, mbas fly abroad to earn more money, the first uncle continued, I can still remember those days when we had gone US for a doctors' meet. I had seen how the indians were treated there at the time of recession......

So called dream girl.....!!

Hey excuse me, I heared a voice as I was about to kick my bike to start.
Yes, self start of my bike is not working. I don't know why the Bajaj company provides self start to almost all bikes either its cheap or expensive.
Yes, my bike is in the first category so that I have to give a strong kick to start it.

Hey hello mr. jogger, the same voice reached my ears again. I turned back and saw that the voice was coming from a white Honda city i-vtec car which was standing next to my bike.
I went near the car as the people in the cars don't prefer to come out of their luxurious cars for the people on the bikes.
Yeah ma'am, I said bending towards the front driving window.
Yes, it was a woman's voice.
Remember me.. ?, she asked smiling.
Nopes, you know me, I asked gazing at her.
The lonely girl, the road crossing, the dogs in the morning....she continued.
Oh yeah, how can I forget that morning, I said.


Whats your name, I flashed this question as soon as I recognised her and  I had forgotten asking her name last time.
I am Tanya, she replied.
I am Gunjesh, Gunjesh Bond, I said shaking hand as she offered her hand first.
Bond...!!, don't you think its strange, an english title with a hindi name, she asked.
Are you a hard core fan of James Bond, she continued in a single breath.
Nopes, I don't like Daniel Craig's movies as I love only romantic movies, I jsut like this title so....I said.
Hmm..thats nice, she said.
So, what are you doing here near my house, were you waiting for me, I asked.
Nopes, I come here daily for my dance class, she said pointing towards the house next to mine.
And what are you doing here near a girls' dance institute, looking after girls,eh, she said.
Nopes, I live here, I replied.
Yes, I live in the house which is next to the Dance Planet, an istitute for dance classes for girls.

May I have your number please, I am getting late, we'll talk later, she said coming out of her Honda city i-vtec car and locking the doors with the remote control.
Ohh shitt..I have forgotten my phone in my house, I said checking out my shorts' pockets.
Stupid, I am asking for your phone number not your phone, she said.....

Party in the Hospital cont....

Few were sleeping  on their white bed covering themselves with white sheets as if they were dead but they were not. I saw a small girl, who was crying because of pain and her mom was crying even more, and  how can I forget her dad's face. How parents love their kids the most and always ready to do anything for their happiness but the same kids when grow up kick their parents,  I was thinking and got senti.
Hi uncle, aunty, namaste, Savlani and Pawan said at the same time.
Yes, they were Khurana's parents, I don't know Khurana will take care of his mom and dad in future or not, I was thinking looking at them.
Verma touched aunty's feet but avoided uncle, I don't know why.
I also had to touch aunty's feet as I was behind Verma.
It was bed no. 309, on which Khurana was siting. I saw few glucose bottles  hanging on a stand near his bed, and he had white stich marks on his right hand.
There was only one patient who was not in white dress and it was our Khurana, he was siting on his bed  crossing his legs.
Uncle and aunty had to leave this room as it was very small for so many people.


How my son, how you felt ill so badly, Savlani said as soon as uncle and aunty left.
Savlani, control yourself, I said.
You just shut up , you asshole, let me talk to my son, he continued.
Wow, chocolates, Savlani shouted.
Yes, there were few chocolates there on his bed. It was a cadbury fruit nut chocolate, a five star, a munch and few small tofees.
Lets finish these first, Savlani said.
What happened, how are you now, I asked Khurana.
I am fine buddy, hows your preparation for papers, he asked.
Paper, huh, I have seen Chopra here, how she came to know about you, Verma interrupted.
Yes, Verma loves Chopra the most but he hates talking to her, I don't know why.
What about reports, I asked Khurana.
Everything is okay, he said.
Hey guys, our Khurana is okay now, so lets bring a cake here and Khuran will cut it here, I shouted.
Oh, lets finish this cadbury fruit nuts first, then we'll bring cake, Savlani shouted.
Hey boys, will you people please shut your mouths for a while, a doctor came and said.
There are so many patients crying here because of pain and you all are planning a party here, he continued.
Yes, we were making a lot of noises as we were in a party.


Here are some icecreams for you, Chopra said to Khurana holding five vadilal's vanilla flavourd icecreams.
Look at her, she is looking awsome, Verma uttered in my ears.
Yes, she was really looking gorgious, she was in blue top, faded blue jeans, and her hair style were adding a lot in her beauty. She is really very sweet thats why Verma is mad for her, but she hardly cares.
I love her the most, Verma said again to me.
Yes, he loves her madly from his school days but he never told her about it.

Five cups of vanilla flavoured ice cremas were there on Khurana's bed.
You are not well, how will you eat it, its bad in  fever, I said taking one cup.
Chopra offerd one cup to khurana and Vaid took one from the rest three.
Savlani took one and went out to offer aunty, as Chopra had told him to do.
There was only one cup left there so Khurana offered it to Chopra.
Pawan, lets share, Chopra said to Pawan.
No, no, its okay, you have it, there is only one spoon, Pawan said.
Its okay, first you eat then I'll, Chopra said.
Khurana was gazing on the faces of Chopra and Pawan. I think he was jalous a little bit.

Hey, what about a chicken party, Savlani shouted as he came in.
I have to go, you take care, Chopra said to Khurana and vanished from there with Vaid.
What, what, we are in hospital, Pawan said to Savlani.
Yeah fucker, I know where I am, don't tell me, Savlani said to Pawan.
Yeah why not, and we will bring some chicken here for Khurana, I said.
Nopes, I can't, doctor has told me not to eat hot stuffs, Khurana said to me.
Okay, then I'll say the waiter to pack it after cooling it in freeze, I said.
What the hell, you ass, you know what are you saying, Savlani shouted again.
Guys, please stop making noises, I am already irritated, a voice came from behind the curtain.
Yes, it was one of the patient's voice, whose head was visible as he was gazing at us from behind the white curtain.

Khalsa chicken, its famous in Mayapuri, Verma siad.
Okay, we all nodded.
Lets go, Khurana you take care, Pawan and Savlani said to Khurana and went out.
Verma again touched aunty's feet so I had to......
Khurana, don't worry, you will get well soon, and don't think much about your studys, first get out of this white hospital and then you can do it, I said to khurana touching aunty's feet.


I have to buy some second hand books, Pawan said as we all four loaded in the car.
First chicken, then books, Savlani said.
Hey, there is a shop in Tilak nagar where you can get huge discounts on the second hand books, Verma siad.
Hey, look, he is Vaid on his bike, I said as we stopped near the red light.
Call him, and ask him to come to book shop and then we will party together, Savlani said.

Give three hasan syeed's control engg. books, Savalani said.
Yes, we had reached the cheap bookshop.
200 bucks each, the shopkeeper said, stamping all the three books.
You pig, you said we will get it just in 30 buks and he is asking for 200 buks, Savlani shouted at Verma.
I thought, but what can I do now, Verma said chuckling.
We will buy these later, we don't have so much money, Savlani said to shopkeeper.

I'll come with Vaid on bike, I said as we were about to leave.
You ass, how will we go, I have only one helmet, Vaid said.
If  we are caught by traffic police then you have to call your dad, he said starting his bike.
Yeah, ofcourse, I said.
Wow, what a fine weather, this is the reason I chose your bike, I said to Vaid.
Yes, it was stormy, and it was about to rain and I never missed enjoying rain. I love walking in rain and especially when I ride the bike in the rain.

What the hell, look at menu and the rate of the items, Savalni said as I was walking towards washroom.
You fucker, you should have told us about the rate first, I have to eat a lot of chicken today, Savlani shouted on Verma.
We tried one more restourent, but there was the same problem, the rate list, which was not suiting our wallets.
Lets go to Rajauri, there we will get...........

Party in the Hospital

Reach NSP metro station by 6:00 pm.
Yes, this was a sms from my dear friend Savlani.
I don't know why my friends think that I am always free.
Yes, I was studying at this time because external papers are going to start from 11th of May.
What happend, I replied.
Khurana is not well, he is in hospital, Savlani said to me as I received his call.
So, we should go to meet him, he continued.
What, what, I asked.
Yes, my son is about to die so we have to go, Savlani said. I don't know why Savlani calls Khurana his son.
Okay, I'll reach on time, what about Pawan and Verma, are they coming, I asked.
Pawan will reach NSP and Verma will reach hospital by metro, he said.

You ass, you are late again, Savlani said.
Yes, he was waiting in his car near NSP metro station. This was the first time he reached on time otherwise....
Where is Pawan, I asked ,taking the front seat.
You fucker, where the fuck are you, we are fucking late, Savlani said to Pawan on the phone in his origional tone on using so many f-words in a single sentence.


You asshole, you are abusing me, I was waiting for shivani, she had to bring notes for you, Pawan said to Savlani, taking the back seat.
Interesting, we are going to hospital and you are talking about notes,  I said.
We don't have time to finish books and you are talking about notes, let me see, I said taking notes from Pawan.
What do you think, what could have happened to Khurana, he suddenly felt ill, I asked Savlani.
He is a bloody bookworm, he was studying a lot, thats why he felt ill, Savlani said.
I don't know why Savlani always talks like this about Khurana.
Hey, what about Minny Chopra, does she know it, I asked.
Yes, Chopra is the closest friend of Khurana., I mean Khurana has some place for chopra in his heart core.
Lets call her, Savlani said.
Don't call her, she had broken up with Khurana, Pawan said.
We were discussing about Khurana and Chopra through out the whole way and reached hospital.
Yes, Verma was waiting for us outside hospital.
Hi, you reached so early, why, I asked Verma.


Savlani rushed towards the reception as we entered the hospital.
Wow, canteen also, nice hospital, Verma said.
Why Savlani run towards reception first, Pawan asked me.
Just to ask, where is Khurana, I answered.
You ass, can't you see the girl, sexy girl on the reception, Pawan said.
I don't know why sweet girls like her are given such a bad job, as she has to face the guys like Savlani, I  thought.
She is hot, eh, Pawan said.
She is horny, bitchy, sexy, hot....Verma started with these words for that sweet girl.
Second floor, Savlani shouted as Verma was scanning that reception girl.


Hey, what a surprise, you are here, Savlani shouted as we rest three were running on stairs behind Savlani.
Yes, it was Chopra, the Minny Chopra.
This is called true love, look at her, I said to Verma.
True love my ass, I love her the most, Verma siad to me.
She shook hand with Pawan and Savlani but not with me and Verma,  I knew, why she did so.
Where is Khurana, I asked Vaid.
Yes, Vaid had come with Chopra.
The corner bed, Vaid siad to me.


There is my son, Savlani shouted and rushed towards the corner bed.
Wow, we are in Rajdhani express, I shouted, as most of the patients were in white clothes, and the bed sheets and the pillows were white.
Shut up, Verma said.
I noticed one uncle, who was in his eighties who was.................
