Elevator
I'm on one of my now-infrequent trips to the metropolis. In the apartment elevator going up, saw one of those familiar neighbourly faces that I'd seen hundreds of times in the lift but never spoken to. Gave him a nod and looked down. I'm not much of a social person. Jolting me out of my thoughts, the neighbour said Hi. "Hi", I replied warily. Not content with the perfunctoriness of this exchange, he persisted with a How are you? Oh well, thought I, it's just an elevator ride so "Good. I'm just back here, will be off again in a few days." "Oh? Where are you based now?" "In Kelshi, it's in coastal Maharashtra. I'm there on project work." "Oh? What kind?" "It's an agricultural experiment." He looked mystified at this. "So.....", he picked his way, "it's some software?" I stared at him. "No, complete hardware", I said, and smiled. Thankfully his floor came by then ...
Now focus like her , and who knows maybe you will save me some money. I knew she was doing this once,but had no clue that it was with such concentration.Cute.
