What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”
Last Updated: 20.06.2025 03:07

Me : I'm around 17 & You? (Don't take me literally)
I just like staying by my own self, away from Dora–The Explorers. Genuine people are always welcome :)
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 : 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.
Let me tell you, this guy is already an MBA pass-out student and I'm just a Sophomore at my UG.
Me : I don't drink coffee also
He : I'm 24.
Me : Thank you.
Me (smiling, hesitant but firm) : I don't think anything.
Me : I don't drink
I was alone there. Firstly, he came and kept his bag, and asked me that he's just coming. I said fine.
He : Then let's have some coffee
P.S. : The conversation above is filtered removing all the rubbish, “normal” slangs of metropolitan city's students.
Me : Because it's month of August.
Can you write a letter to your first love without mentioning his/her name?
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 : So, are you here just for the event? What college and course do you have?
Me : Sure.
How do you handle family members who ask for handouts?
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!
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?
He : Tea ?
How do I become a Buddhist, and can someone explain Buddhism to me?
Let's be a little serious. Is there any “Student of the Year” movie going on here in Delhi/Gurgaon colleges?
He : Btw, you're really pretty.
Me : No
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 : Oh, great. I also live around. We stay very close. We can just catch up anytime.
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 (a little confused) : I don't know
Me : Ok. Although, I don't feel age has anything to do with the understanding and experience of a person.
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).
He (smiling) : So, what do you think about me?
Me : No. I am a resident of some other state. I'm here in Delhi for studies.
I was feeling as if I was being flattered too much.
I am still confused that which nice guy in the world, asks a girl to meet for a movie at the first-ever meet?
He : So, are you seeing someone?
He : Cool. No, I'm not from this college. I'm the PR coordinator for their event. Are you from Delhi only?
Me : Yes. I'm from Delhi University. Eco Major, 2nd year. Are you from this college?
He : I don't understand why it's so hot and humid today.
He : Okay. Fine. We can just watch a movie. Have some fun. What's your age?
He : If you're free anytime let's catch up. Have some drinks!
Then the friend whom he was with, he also went away to the canteen. Now, only this guy was there alone. Standing!
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!
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.
