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

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.

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

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

Why do some people have loving parents and some do not?

Me : Sure.

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?

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).

Have you been arrested or investigated?

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

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

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

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

He : Then let's have some coffee

Me : I don't drink coffee also

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).

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

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!

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

He : Btw, you're really pretty.

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

He : So, are you seeing someone?

How do you explain the involvement of a mainland Chinese visitor, her local relative, and a 65-year-old friend of the latter in the suspected money laundering case seized by Hong Kong police?

Me : Because it's month of August.

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

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

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

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

What was it like being spanked as a kid?

He : I'm 24.

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

Me : I don't drink

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 feeling as if I was being flattered too much.

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

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

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

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

Democrats be honest, how many of you were wishing that Musk rescue space flight blew up?

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

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.

Me : Thank you.

What are the challenges associated with the birth narratives of Jesus?

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

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.

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

Me : No

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.

He : Tea ?

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

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