What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”

Me : Because it's month of August.

He : I don't understand why it's so hot and humid today.

I sat there on the bench for a while. There was a boy standing by my side. Seemed an official, but maybe a management graduate. Offcourse well dressed (Cream shirt and black pants), offcourse smart, with a good accent and Delhi attitude (too much slang).

He : Cool. No, I'm not from this college. I'm the PR coordinator for their event. Are you from Delhi only?

Let me tell you, this guy is already an MBA pass-out student and I'm just a Sophomore at my UG.

Me (smiling, hesitant but firm) : I don't think anything.

He : I'm 24.

Me : Ok. Although, I don't feel age has anything to do with the understanding and experience of a person.

Me : No

By now, I have already understood what he's trying to do. Still, I waited. So, I told him a place nearby to my locality.

I just like staying by my own self, away from Dora–The Explorers. Genuine people are always welcome :)

Me : Sure.

When will the new normal in the global economy return, following the panic caused by US President Donald Trump's tariff flip-flops?

Yeah, I can understand that you're exploring. You're another “Dora - The Explorer” from Delhi. So, you should also find girls who're just explorers like you. Keep playing DORA-DORA!

He : So, are you seeing someone?

Meanwhile, I was wondering from when did Chandigarh came in Madhya Pradesh? Maybe, I need to revisit geography of 10th standard again, or does he need it badly. Management, you know!

What were some things that the ancient Greeks excelled at compared to the Romans?

He : Yeah. Getting. I have also been here for years now. But I'm fed with Delhi. I have lived in Mangalore. My family is from Chandigarh. Madhya Pradesh you know.

I am still confused that which nice guy in the world, asks a girl to meet for a movie at the first-ever meet?

I was alone there. Firstly, he came and kept his bag, and asked me that he's just coming. I said fine.

Even in movies, you won't find any guy reaching out to a girl and asking for movies, drinks and chill at the first meet. The female character would literally slap such a guy (in movies).

P.S. : The conversation above is filtered removing all the rubbish, “normal” slangs of metropolitan city's students.

He : So, are you here just for the event? What college and course do you have?

Let's be a little serious. Is there any “Student of the Year” movie going on here in Delhi/Gurgaon colleges?

He : Yes, Monsoon month. What place do you stay in Delhi?

I was already blown that why being a 24 year old, he's being creepy with me.

He : Okay. Fine. We can just watch a movie. Have some fun. What's your age?

He : Then let's have some coffee

Me : No. I don't drink coffee, tea anything.

How do you write a letter to your uncle who sent you money for your birthday outfit?

Me : I don't drink coffee also

By now, he was at least sure that I'm not the kind of girl, he's looking for. With the excuse of a phone call, he moved towards the auditorium.

I was feeling as if I was being flattered too much.

Me : Yes. I'm from Delhi University. Eco Major, 2nd year. Are you from this college?

He (smiling) : So, what do you think about me?

He : Btw, you're really pretty.

Me : No. I am a resident of some other state. I'm here in Delhi for studies.

Then the friend whom he was with, he also went away to the canteen. Now, only this guy was there alone. Standing!

He : Oh, great. I also live around. We stay very close. We can just catch up anytime.

I was in an event in a management college of Gurgaon. I didn't knew the campus well. There was still some time left for the event to start. I was waiting for a speaker, who had invited me.

He : Tea ?

Me : I don't drink

Me (a little confused) : I don't know

Me : I'm around 17 & You? (Don't take me literally)

He : If you're free anytime let's catch up. Have some drinks!

He : Oh. You know, I also had Eco major. We both stay in South Delhi. We both are single. So much similiarities. And you're pretty also. What do you do on weekends?

Me : Thank you.
