Chapter I - He's so mature...but...I'm so young!
It's the normal working Tuesday as people throughout the city busy with themselves. A busy marketplace where a shop acquires our attention (we can't figure it how, but let it be buddy, it's a story why you take it so seriously?).
"How much for the Masuri Dal?" a young man enquires.
"Rs.60 a kg," says the shopkeeper.
"But yesterday it was 55?"
"Yes...why didn't you buy yesterday?" the shopkeeper said sarcastically.
"But why 5/- increased?"
"My dear, do you want it for the yesterday's price?" smiles shopkeeper.
"Yes...yes." says the guy with full interest.
"Then I have solution. Build a time machine, go back yesterday and buy it for 55 a kilo!!! Get lost you idiot!" screams the shopkeeper.
"When did you start studying pseudo science?" asks the guy.
"Rohit, now go, do not test my patience." exclaims the shopkeeper.
Rohit comes back. He knows that in current economy it will be hard to spend 5/- more for a kilo. He goes back to home.
"Where is the daal?" asks his mother.
"I didn't buy it." says Rohit, "the shopkeeper wants 5/- more than yesterday."
"So what's the problem? I gave you 100/- ...then?"
"Come on ma, we need to save money."
"For what?" asks his confused mother.
"For my iPhone, ma, for my iPhone, did you forget?"
"Oh hell," his mother exhales, "when will you grow up you idiot? Why don't you look at your elder brother and learn something."
Rohit looks at his mother, "How can I see him and know him? He comes early in the evening and goes to bed and gets up early than me and goes to office. How can I follow him?"
His mother gets angry, "It's because you get up late at 10.30 am every day and come back from your those discos at late night!"
"I even tried to follow him, but didn't find him." says Rohit in a sad tone.
"Where did you try to follow him?" his mother gets more puzzled.
"In Twitter, ma. I think Dada has no twitter account!"
"You idiot, go to your bath. Get ready for your college. I am just fed up with you." his mother leaves for kitchen.
