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

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

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.

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).

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?

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

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

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

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

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

Me : No

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

He : Tea ?

He : I'm 24.

He : Btw, you're really pretty.

Me : Thank you.

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

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

Who's your celebrity crush?

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

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 (a little confused) : I don't know

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

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

Me : Sure.

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

Me : Because it's month of August.

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

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.

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!

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

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.

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

Me : I don't drink coffee also

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.
