Enquiries about TEA by Puneet Rajhans

Enquiries about TEA

The other day i made enquiries about tea. The man at the front desk of a food joint whom i approached, learning about my query on tea gave me a long stare, perhaps suggesting the query itself was amounting to sacrilege seen very rare. Perhaps he suggested from his long stare that i had the audacity to take tea which for the price of Rs 15 to 20 would enable me to take a seat, have a fan support and take a good glance of the crowd that would file in and file out. Not at all enamoured by what i enquired about he indicated me to stage a walkout, failing which he had forces to show me the door to the outside world. I left bewildered at his conduct but soon had another tea at another joint that had none other than me at that point. What i have realised in the twists and turns of long ride is that query of nominal nature are to be dismissed as one having no stature and this tea-making query was followed by few days later on a paper which the man handling the business expressed his no fondness.
TOI what i was looking for and the man suggested to wait for half an hour. Just to be doubly sure, i asked would the paper be here after his 30 minutes roar, he frowned: "Gadi road par chalti hai." Here i gave him the little piece of my developing mind by telling him point blank where is the need to lose cool when morning has just set in to make us drool. Few minutes of frantic search didn't yield the paper i read and i returned to him pleading to hand over the paper with the requisite change as well coming from him. This time, he was noble and sobre.
Prior to this the bread-butter consumption at a joint early morning showed the other side of a disturbed entity who was no else than the cashier-cum-manager of a restaurant. When i took the toast with two cups of tea and sought a change to my note, the manager again gave me a long stare as if he always had food which he always had to share. Perhaps the stare suggested that small transactions won't be tolerated and they look forward to meals order that are bold and enable them to send to their homes big money order. The manager, cashier and other elements were frowning at the change i sought which they believed were nothing but a way to show their falling meal order record. Showing disregard to this unwanted mayhem i started to look at the map of the state which showed how much i have travelled in a new found gait.
Prior to this the last evening was wonderful as the crowd hailing from Bong frontier gave me a chance to be with them in a renewed gear. Queries from them saw me settle the doubts and invoke their prized opinion about my clout. Such interactions take us to add a refreshing chapter to our life where there are still millions and millions who are simple and plain white. They are good at heart and noble in their conduct and after all such crowd has to be hailed and hope the meeting of minds keep on happening without fail. This would be a recurring feature which would help us to be in all-weather flavour.
