Overheard in BMTC

Asif Soullessly sitting in the window seat of BMTC bus gazing to infinity, silently listening to conversations within.


Its then this couple in their twenties entered the bus sat behind Asif, and made him listen to their 80 decibel conversation.


"Look I really didn’t mean to hurt you or anything. I was not making fun of you. I was pretty serious. That watch costs 300 rupees, and even if you say, you share the 1500 rupees; I will have to pay the rest 1500 Rupees. Please understand my condition. I won’t be having enough money to spend for my next 25 days if I spend 1500 rupees on that watch. I’m not sorry for this"


"Why do you have to be sorry? You haven’t insulted me in that showroom na."


"I haven’t insulted you. In fact I was joking. I thought you will understand. But you didn’t. That just pissed me off. Baby, you must understand whenever I’m angry. Though I was angry there, I kept quiet. Didn’t I? It’s not only about I understanding you, I expect the same from you.

If I didn’t get up early, I’m wrong.

If I doing call you, I’m wrong.

If I am busy on weekend, I’m wrong.

But it’s not the case for you. You do a mistake and say "Oh I forgot" and that has to be fine with me. But I’m forgetting something is totally wrong."



"I FORGET THINGS BECAUSE I KEEP THINKING ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME."


Jerk is rolling in the aisles.


I remain
