“A new day…a new beginning”, thought Happening Babua this morning. Staying at his friends’ house for the opening ceremony of his Chai Shop, Happening decided to finally take a bath after setting his all-time-high-record of the biggest bath between baths. His last bath was on the day of Holi when all the street kids decided to tease him by wearing ‘We Love Rajinikanth’ T-shirts and squirted him with aam-ras. Also he wanted to take bath to wash off all of his anger because of the last night’s argument with his friend regarding whether Batman is a real superhero or not. The intense argument lasted 3 hours which also resulted in the neighbours calling the Delhi Police notifying them about a possible murder about to happen. The ridiculously meaningless meaningful argument was finally decided by tossing a coin which had resulted in the hapless Happ losing the argument. After that when his friend offered him a cup of Hajmola-ladened tea with 45% latte, the hapless Happ dislocated his little finger by holding it out too far while holding the cup (as if the trauma of the day was not enough for him). And if that was not enough, the hapless Happ’s eyes started paining because of the brightness setting of the black and white TV in the house before he finally went off to sleep.
However, leaving everything behind, the helpless Hap took a long bath after which he brushed his teeth with a Neem twig. After an intense 37 minute decision-making struggle about which plug point to use for the hair-dryer, when he finally decided to use the one near the window, the lights went off. Offffff…poor hapless Happ!!! Really sad turn of events today too. But the optimist that he is, he decided to go to the terrace and get his hair dried naturally. And getting Vitamin D in the morning for free was like a cherry on the ice-cream. Ohh…about the ice-cream in the fridge…oh no…they are equivalent of sweet milk now.
Trying to wipe his tears due to the unfortunate turn of events, he noticed a bunch of kids on the street playing Cricket wearing the same Rajinikanth T-shirts. It was then that he decided to seek revenge – a vengeance which will put him on par with the makers of The Conjuring. He decided to tell them a number of horror stories he made while watching IPL recently.
It has been 5 hours, and the kids seem to be enjoying the story telling session. Poor hapless Happ will be better off becoming a comedy story-teller one day.
