A new friend... .

I am working in the night shift these days. It is a BPO job. Needless to say that our company provides us with transport. Everyday, I am picked up in the evening and taken to the company. In the similar manners, I am dropped at my rooms early in the morning. I met with this girl in my cab. She stays in the same area, so the company has assigned a cab for us and one another guy (who hates to speak, I think; I've heard him speak only thrice, "Thank you Bhaiyya!" That was to the cabbie who'd taken us to our destinations... LOL) & I hate him too (because he doesn't say anything at all, 'attitude!')... I want to tell you about this girl. Girl, well she's actually a 30 years old woman and is married too... Now, before I go further, let me tell you that this has nothing to do with my part-time profession.


Whenever I work in the night, I travel with these two. The 'Mr. No-Words-Please', always prefers to sit beside the driver (maybe, he thinks he gets to sit beside Bhagwan Vishnu..LOL). This lovely lady and I sit in the back. It has been at least 20 times that we travelled in this manner and no one spoke at all. I hate to be silent! Whenever I am forced to remain silent (as in this case), I feel as if I am making some mistake. I am not used to silence even in my sleep, metaphorically speaking LOL.. I even tried to speak and start conversation with the guy and that day I got to know that he was suffering from extremely high self-respect, a condition which doesn't allow the patient to speak to many (sometimes, not even with himself.. LOL)... So it went on for days. I would feel jealous whenever I'd see other cabs full of employees having fun- joking, laughing, clapping each other... Wow!!! "God, what's my mistake?" my soul would ask Thee. I am heard, finally..


NO! You're wrong.. The guy didn't speak.. It was the cutie, who opened up on our company and the work and new opportunities. We discussed a few subjects during the 60 minutes that we spent together in the cab. I kept listening and replying and agreeing and being friendly and.... Man, finally we became friends, by the time we reached her place, and that's when I got to know that she is married and is 30. I told her frankly that I really didn't think her to be 30 and married too, which made her blush... The conversation was full of jokes, laughter etc. Life was discussed too. Guess, we'll become very nice friends, before I leave this company. :) I am glad to have got a new and beautiful friend!


Oh, and you know what, that guy in the front beside the cabbie, didn't speak at all... LOL
