The Insignificant Wait

           An evening, a boy sits in the window seat of a local bus, buys a ticket to the city center bus station. He continues his journey; he looks outside the window to take a glance on a busy city, which rides in confidence!! He tunes into his favorite number in his playlist, which reminds him of a friend and immediately calls him up fixing an appointment to meet at their rendezvous [adda]. He jumps out of the bus and claims to board another bus which would lead to his friend as he doesn’t know which bus to board he walks around the station to find the right bus.

           After 15 minutes of searching he ends up, just ends up checking out the chicks at the bus station. He decides voyeurism is not helping him and boards a rick to his destination the rickshaw guy (autowala) rides his auto with so much of Sakhi (attitude) as if the auto is his bitch and he thinks himself as Vin Diesel from F&F (Fast and the Furious) as a result the boy reaches his destination quicker!! Boy even tips the rick guy for the awesome ride and calls up his friend to notify his arrival to the adda. By the way his friend with his same old Sakhi (attitude) says he is still leaving his home it would take another half an hour. With all his patience the boy agrees for the insignificant wait. As he reaches his adda the hunger helps him to make his wait more interesting and he steps in to Mc Donald’s after the super fast order and super duper fast service the boy comes out of the line to settle himself to have his burger. He realizes he was never alone in Mc Donald’s before and in contradiction he observes everyone is with their family or friends. Finally, two loners come into his sight, he says "That’s my loners group" and sits between them and the situation turns awkward.    

On his right sits a person who is partially bald and formal in his clothing plugging his ear piece enjoys his loneliness by pouring the beats of his song on the table. On his lefts sits a guy with his dark skin and spiked hair buys two regular size French fries picks it up one by one dips it into ketchup and eats and looks around as if he owns it. The boy Ommmms [eats] his burger as the table tabla and the suspicious slow fries consumption continues. The phone rings, boy expecting that it’s his friend, finds out the person who is calling is his ‘Girl friend’ to whom he completely forgets to call that day, "Damn" he picks up the call and says "Yeah Baby".

Girlfriend: Where are you?

Boy: I am at Mc Donald’s

Girlfriend: Ohh!! with whom...?

Boy: I am waiting for my friend.

Girlfriend: U didn’t call or text me from the morning.

Boy: Oh actually I couldn’t

(Network Problem) I was at home

Girlfriend: what?

Boy: I was at home?

Girlfriend: what?

Boy: I was at home? (Volume rises)

Girlfriend: what?

Boy (pissed off tone): I was....

          

The slow motion fries guy stares at the boy and pulls out the half bit fries from his mouth.

Boy (over the call): Baby, don’t mind I’ll call u later.

Girlfriend: You always forget me when you are with your friends, BYE!!

Peep Peep Peep... The phone disconnects "What the F....?”

Boy quickly eats up his burger and calls to his friend

Boy: I am done with my Burger I am coming out meet me at the front door as you arrive

Friend: I am still at home (with Sakhi)

Boy (pissed off tone): Godddddddddd.....

Irritated, Annoyed, and in Anger, the boy walks out of the Mc Donald’s sipping his coke. He crashes face to face with a person "Tadaaaaaaa....." It’s his FRIEND! smiles with his bitchy Sakhi again. Huh...
