It was raining and i did not have an umbrella.I had my iphone open in one hand and blackberry in the other as I tried to take an address from my calendar in the blackberry and stick it on the map on my iPhone. I had just realised that i had walked 15 minutes in the opposite direction. I also knew that I was 20 minutes late already. Sid was waiting for me. I would have taken a cab, had i any cash on myself. In short, I was a mess.
That is when i heard him walking on the sidewalk next to me.
'Country? country?' he said looking at me. In his early twenties, he was thin with a little beard on his face.
I made a face at him and pretended to not notice. I walked as fast as my heels permitted.
'Country? country?' he repeated walking faster to keep pace with me as the rains lashed on.
'India' I said.
A moment's silence.
'I can give you my number' he said after a pause.
I mentally LOL-ed.
'And what would i use that for?' i said unable to stop myself.
'You can call me' he said in a matter of fact voice.
I must have still looked questioningly for he felt the need to explain further.
'You can be my friend, you know' he said benignly.
I made a face at him.
'I am a manager' he said ' a big, big manager' he said as if that would definitely make me change my mind.
I looked at him both the phones in my two hands ringing as the rain pelted down.
'I am married' i said to him.
He stared at me for a moment, blinked once or twice and then without a word about turned and walked away.
LOL.
