Feast brings respite from odd routines

  On an important occasion, I had the great opportunity to attend a feast arranged at a posh hotel in our famous city of Kanpur's prominent Jajmau area.  Various delicious items were arranged on the stylish table. The guests were really free to choose what they liked to consume. There was a considerable rush but not in any way uncontrollable when I entered the grand air conditioning space. Soon, the humble host emerged, and we liked to step forward for embracing each other as human decency permits us to do on such occasions. I did not lose much time sharing a light joke. I briefed him that I saw you standing from just outside, but you were out of sight the moment I entered the a bit dark hall.  He, in his usual manner, did not pause to say how a man so fat could not be viewed from quite a short distance. Thus, we laughed to the full heartily. Among various dishes, there was also the regular Biryani. How would be missed due to its wide acceptability? When it was indeed ava...

Getting to know them individually

 


A phone call from a neighbour prompted me to visit his nearby flat, which was equipped with a modest CCTV system. Not more than four people were already sitting in the not-so-big room, discussing significant matters. As I entered the home's furnished room, one person identified me simply by looking at my face.

While another one tried to maintain his composure despite knowing all about me. So I also expressed my inability to instantly recognise him. When he began revealing his identity, I quickly offered several examples to ascertain my knowledge about his family. 

Thereupon, words started sprouting from his mouth. He detailed the exact purpose of his meeting. No trouble was shown on my part in putting pointed views on the particular matter.  

Another one was certainly not far behind in finding my face similar to one in my family, as he was overheard. Strangely enough, the first man failed to demonstrate the similar promptness in his quick acquaintance. He at once admitted that he frequently find him at the school's PTM. 

It was a truly unusual insight on their part. He made this point solely to demonstrate his acquaintance. However, his indifferent stance brought annoyance. He later thought if he was recognising him, why had he not come up to meet him? Would that not prove to be a properly gentle step?

However, his silence affirmed that he evaded his readiness to disclose why he concealed his identity. If he was fully recognising him as his words indicated that he knew him too  well, but the flaw on his part remained his instant apathy towards telling the truth. He did not exhibit similar self-respect, where a lack of rhythm breaks support.

Naturally, given this sudden meeting at a flat, his dry attitude was not so praising that particular evening. There was indeed a long gap in their sudden meeting. However, this talk gave the impression of a totally businesslike. However, the meeting ended like others.
