The other day, I visited sarojini nagar market. Although it’s a bit tacky and crowded at times(?), but to buy certain types of items, sarojini market is the best. So once in a while, I visit the market , to buy small, sweet things to decorate my room or some similar stuff.
While moving through the narrow lanes further narrowed by the bulk stocks of clothes (rehri samaan) spreaded on the ground of the two sides of the lane, suddenly a shopkeeper shouted looking at me {as seen with my crooked eye}……
MADAM MADAM….GID GAYA GID GAYA (fell down, fell down)
I stopped at once and checked everything in me, all over me, as soon as possible. Everything was ok. I turned and looked at him….
A dark guy, with sparkling, shining 'happydent' white teeth, holding a white tshirt at his hand said with extreme amusement and in a calm, irritating voice, “MADAM, ISS SHIRT KA DAAM”,(Maam, this shirt's price has fallen down)
I was all red. All eyes were on me and in such weird moments, instead of being angry, I find them funny. I somehow controlled my smile and behaved as if nothing happened. But a smile betrayed me and escaped my lips and adding to their amusement. I left the place without giving them a second glance.
