Another in the series of "the girl"

{All this snippets are going a long way to prove the fact that I am getting paranoid about the freedom thing...maybe i should have casual fling just to feel relaxed and in the groove}


It all started with a rather long sms from "the girl" i recieved on friday night aroung 1.00 p.m..she wanted me to accompany her to the Bangalore municipal transport corp (bmtc) office as she wanted to lodge a complaint against a bus conductor who had misbehaved with her.she told me that she had even lodged a police complaint at the Indiranagar police station.
so saturday morning started kind of early for me( usually i never wake up before 11.30) .i called up my boss who is rather big in bangalore and explained the whole story to him.
next stop was her house.
she was rather happy and mock outraged to see me so early in the morning(9.30)
then we decided to go for what you would call "retail therapy",meaning buying lots of expensive stuff which neither of us dont need very much.
first stop was a place where we had a veggie lunch...gobi paratha and such things.halfway through she realised that i dont exactly like leaves and grass for lunch.whatever.
then to the titan shop for repairing her watch,a rather expensive one.
next stop was commercial street. she wanted to buy a formal shoe for office use.so after parking my bike with much diificulty ,we went to three shoe stores and finally she chose the shoe that i had originally liked.
so much for an independant streak.
next stop was a duppata store where she wanted to get a duppata for her blue and white salwar in between i bargained and got her some hair clips for 30% the price the seller quoted-)

then i wanted her to buy a good pair of jeans,preferably pepe.
she was like "nooooo i dont want to buy it now and all that".
well after a five minute spell of hard reasoning from me ,she also warmed up to the idea and up up and away to brigade road.
our first stop was a juice shop as both of us were kind of thirsty.
apple juice for her and fresh lime soda for me and then we barged into the Levis store .and then the fun started.

either she doesnot like the style or the colour or in some cases the things were ultra-low rise or whatever.(must be made for girls who are either anorexic else for covering lamp-posts.
after going through twenty pairs , and ofcourse with a fone to the designer of levis(my close friend),we decided to go to the lee/wrangler store down the road.
here the collection was better or rather bit less funky.

well the girl being a bit finicky about her clothes...she should be ,after all she does not work in a call centre but designs circuits for computer graphics cards(ASIC)...she finally settled on a pair of 'mid-rise,regular fit ,boot cut with lycra finish...something she never wanted to buy in the first place,but i have my ways of persuation.
after that it was arather hasty ride back home as i had a theatre rehearsal to attend.
so ended saturday.
AND I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH HER.
I MEAN I LOVE MY INDEPENDENCE.
well on monday,thats yesterday i went and met Mr. Mahapatra ,who is the addl .director general of karnataka police and explained her predicament to him.he immidiately called his junior officer a DSP(Deputy Superintendant of Police), and that person did whatever was needful.
after that i picked her up from in front of office and we went to the duppata shop ,got her duppata, came back to brigade road and sat at the KFc cause both of us were very hungry.
huge amounts of burger and soft drinks consumed ,we came back to her flat from where i capnapped for an hour.
In between she also tanked up my bike and pampered with me ice-creams and what not.
dinner was again a veggie affair at some overpriced joint near her place.There were some girls from a call centre sitting in the next table who were looking at her t-shirt and wondering how one gets into IIT- Delhi.hehehehehe .
well that kind of ended the day.
and my dear ,if you are convinced that we are in love,then please change your opinion.she thinks that somebody like me should never be in love,never marrry,never do anything in life that will curb my independence and creativity.
i am a free bird and thats how i should be. and after two continuous days with her , i realise that its rather difficult for me to actually get tied down anyplace emotionally.thats why i guess i have moved out of all my relationships gracefully and very quickly.
i really hope that she settles down with somebody as brainy and decent as her,not get saddled with a wild-child like me.

Piece of My mind for " the girl"

{ It all started with a rather simple telephone call,which led to a series of telephone calls,some funny,some rather distressing, and a couple of them absolutely acrimonious.
As Reshma says"women are completely circumstancial".So does Freud. hope both of them are correct in their judgement.just hope}
