What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”

He : So, are you seeing someone?

Me : No. I am a resident of some other state. I'm here in Delhi for studies.

He : Oh, great. I also live around. We stay very close. We can just catch up anytime.

What are some examples of a threat to democracy in India?

I was in an event in a management college of Gurgaon. I didn't knew the campus well. There was still some time left for the event to start. I was waiting for a speaker, who had invited me.

Me : Sure.

I was alone there. Firstly, he came and kept his bag, and asked me that he's just coming. I said fine.

Were there any friendly fire incidents involving American submarines, aircraft carriers, or battleships during World War II or World War I?

Me : I don't drink

Me : Thank you.

Even in movies, you won't find any guy reaching out to a girl and asking for movies, drinks and chill at the first meet. The female character would literally slap such a guy (in movies).

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

He : Yes, Monsoon month. What place do you stay in Delhi?

Yeah, I can understand that you're exploring. You're another “Dora - The Explorer” from Delhi. So, you should also find girls who're just explorers like you. Keep playing DORA-DORA!

Me : I don't drink coffee also

What will the legacy of Jimmy Carter be in light of his death today at 100?

I was already blown that why being a 24 year old, he's being creepy with me.

Me : No. I don't drink coffee, tea anything.

He : Cool. No, I'm not from this college. I'm the PR coordinator for their event. Are you from Delhi only?

Which album is your favorite that's now 50 years old (from 1975), and what's the best song on the album?

Let me tell you, this guy is already an MBA pass-out student and I'm just a Sophomore at my UG.

He : Then let's have some coffee

He : Oh. You know, I also had Eco major. We both stay in South Delhi. We both are single. So much similiarities. And you're pretty also. What do you do on weekends?

Do foreign workers face discrimination in Canada?

He : If you're free anytime let's catch up. Have some drinks!

Then the friend whom he was with, he also went away to the canteen. Now, only this guy was there alone. Standing!

He (smiling) : So, what do you think about me?

Why is my ex trying to provoke an argument with me?

Me : Because it's month of August.

He : Yeah. Getting. I have also been here for years now. But I'm fed with Delhi. I have lived in Mangalore. My family is from Chandigarh. Madhya Pradesh you know.

He : I'm 24.

How was cancer treatment different in the US and the UK?

By now, I have already understood what he's trying to do. Still, I waited. So, I told him a place nearby to my locality.

Me : No

Me : Ok. Although, I don't feel age has anything to do with the understanding and experience of a person.

He : Tea ?

Me (a little confused) : I don't know

He : I don't understand why it's so hot and humid today.

Is it okay for me to wear girls’ underwear?

He : Okay. Fine. We can just watch a movie. Have some fun. What's your age?

He : So, are you here just for the event? What college and course do you have?

He : Btw, you're really pretty.

Why are people so terrified or bothered that a person has original creative ideas, hobbies or unique interests?

Me : Yes. I'm from Delhi University. Eco Major, 2nd year. Are you from this college?

By now, he was at least sure that I'm not the kind of girl, he's looking for. With the excuse of a phone call, he moved towards the auditorium.

Let's be a little serious. Is there any “Student of the Year” movie going on here in Delhi/Gurgaon colleges?

I was feeling as if I was being flattered too much.

I am still confused that which nice guy in the world, asks a girl to meet for a movie at the first-ever meet?

P.S. : The conversation above is filtered removing all the rubbish, “normal” slangs of metropolitan city's students.

Meanwhile, I was wondering from when did Chandigarh came in Madhya Pradesh? Maybe, I need to revisit geography of 10th standard again, or does he need it badly. Management, you know!

Me (smiling, hesitant but firm) : I don't think anything.

Me : I'm around 17 & You? (Don't take me literally)

I just like staying by my own self, away from Dora–The Explorers. Genuine people are always welcome :)

I sat there on the bench for a while. There was a boy standing by my side. Seemed an official, but maybe a management graduate. Offcourse well dressed (Cream shirt and black pants), offcourse smart, with a good accent and Delhi attitude (too much slang).
