Scene 1 – The Grand Saraswati Puja<\/p>\n
Early morning we three were waiting for the bus for Kumartoli. Hey, please wait for five minutes, I\u2019ll be just back, Ritwick was having habit of getting natures call on and off. Oops, shyed \u201cLittle\u201d, now let\u2019s go, we\u2019ll only be two shares for whatever we can earn from this budget. Ritwick was slowly strolling in frustration while we back. Youuu\u2026,\u201dLittle\u201d could quickly manage by five bucks; it was not a perfect divide by three in anyway. <\/p>\n
Scene2 – Arjun, Spanish and that lady <\/p>\n
He was smart, she was elegant. He used play Spanish Guitar, while she was only in sixth standard. The whole class was behind him, he received a \u201cchit\u201d from that lady. Splendid!! How does it look like, boss, how does it feel to touch? Come let\u2019s frame the reply & the entire class was writing it.

That small company shut its door. What next Saurabh? Speechless\u2026 me too\u2026we knew we would be going back to the same routine that we had.

Hummm\u2026 if I can recall it, I never saw him so grim\u2026 none is made of iron\u2026 even \u201cTATA steel\u201d also gets rust. I know he would fight back giving tons of argument, I know he\u2019s so good at ironing out, so good at camouflage, I know he knew what he would have to do, however I never knew a miser would remain be miser even having millions of Ponds and Euros in his deep pocket. <\/p>\n
