pratigya :'kahaan hai market?😕...'
krishna:'from here it is walkable distance...😊'they went by walking and talking.
look at the market!
first time pratigya was going to a local marker. it was over crowded because of holi tyohar.people were walking randomly without looking left or right. pratigya frequently got hit by others ,to avoid she hold his arm and stuck close to him.
krishna:'😛...'he looked at her.
pratigya :'yeh kyun ith na untidy hai?😕...'
krishna:'🤣...yeh dubai shopping mall thodi hai ? desi market hai...😆' he went to a provision store where they buy their groceries regularly and gave the list to the person in the shop.
pratigya :'aachuuu...aachuuu...'she sneezed twice.
krishna:'god bless you...god bless you...😛' he blessed her twice.
pratigya :'thanks😊...ewww...why it is so dusty?...'
krishna:'🤣 you never get down from your AC car...that is why you find it difficult...already i told you...'
pratigya :'omg!...'she closed her mouth and nose together with her dupatta.
krishna:'by that time they pack the groceries we will go and buy vegetables ...😊'he told the shop keeper and moved on with pratigya to buy vegetables.
look at the petty vegetable shop with fresh vegetables direct from the forms!.
krishna slightly pulled up his pants,fold his legs, sat on his toes in front of the vegetable shop with his shopping bags and started bargaining with him.
krishna:'dhada...yeh aaloo kithne ka hai?😊...'he took one potato and checked.
vendor:'kilo attahra(eighteen) rupai ka hai...'

vendor:'babu ji...panthra rupai bahuth kam hai...😔'he said sadly
krishna:'teek hai teek hai...saowla(sixteen) mai thay tho...'he selected smooth well shaped,not sprouted and unbruised potatoes and gave it to him for weighing.
pratigya was standing beside him, looking at him with surprise the way he was selecting the potatoes and bargaining with the vendor.it was around 10am.the sun was shining bright and radiating his rays with anger.she took her dupatta and put it on her head and looked down.the sun's hot rays were falling directly on krishna's face.she took the other edge of her dupatta and hold it over krishna's head as umbrella to avoid the sun rays falling on his face.
krishna:'thanks...😊'ha raised his head and tried to look at her.the glaring of sun made him shrunk this eyes and face.
pratigya :'😃 jalthi karo...it is very hot...'she said looking at his weird face.
krishna:'tamaatar kithne ka hai?...'he selected fresh deep red ripen tomatoes for weighing.
vendor:'bees(twenty) rupai per kilo...'
krishna:'attarah rupai mai thay do...'he bargained again.
pratigya :'krishna...😊'she kept her hand on his shoulder and sat beside him in squatting position.
krishna:'😆...'
pratigya:'what? what is there to laugh so loudly?'
krishna:'you look funny🤣...sitting in this position with dupatta on your head...'
krishna:🤣... he remember the way she use to sit right royally in her office executive revolving chair and commanding her staffs. he could not stop himself laughing out loud seeing her in squatting position.

krishna:😕
pratigya :'do you bargain in AC show rooms? nahi na? we pay in thousands in show rooms without saying any thing. then why with this poor vendor?...waise how much you are going to save by bargaining two or three rupees?'
