Heras' day in City

              It had been over a semester now, still Hera did not knew anything about the city he lived in. Why should he know, there was no reason to go anywhere, okay he was interested in movies, but why should he spend for them, if people would get CD's and he watched at there place on a PC. The only place other than the phone booth, if Hera had to go anywhere down the road was decided as per a fixed routine. Mess two times a day on weekdays including Saturday, to Mess one time on Sunday; and Laxmi on Sunday night. As mess was not open on Sunday nights. Well why only Laxmi? Its simple, it was cheap, it was quick and Hera loved scrambled eggs! And each Sunday mess served chicken, so that craving was well satisfied!

               So at last it was time to see other things, at first Hera resisted the the idea, but when Monc said "Where are you going to take your girlfriend, when you get one?" He readily accepted. Hence, Hera took out some cash from bank, so did Rack and Monc. Together they had about 5K bucks. Now only one question remained, "Where  should we go?", as they asked each other at the same time. Rack said lets go to Fashion Street. All agreed. 

               They walked down the street and started looking for Tum-Tum (Six seater Auto-Rickshaw) going to Fashion Street, and they had to get on to bus. They did not get Tum-Tum. Next they got down at Cultural center of city, there was one big garden with a tank in it next to river. Followed by a Drama theater. They walked the street, looking at various restaurants they were all very attractive, but it was only 10:00 in morning and only had softy. All the time they walked, they attracted attraction towards them for there choice of song. Which was kind of bizarre, and they were singing rather shouting at the top there voice! It went something like this

                                                       Deko Deko yeh Hai jalwa

                                                                Deko Deko

                                                         V are going to Deko

                                                         U are going to Deko

              Well it went on that way! After that they took another bus, it dropped them near Fashion street, and they decided to walk there. On reaching there, Rack bought two T-shirts, Monc and Hera nothing, until on way out they saw a vendor selling  locates. All of them got a sword and Dragon one. Then had a monster burger, which turned out to be beef burger and all the three lost there religion there. Well Hera had some issues about religion after his prayers about Ruby were unheard so he did not tell others and they all enjoyed it. 

              After that, Hera pulled everyone to a music shop, where he bought about 10 audio tapes.  From there they started back for home, and to there amazement they had about 40 bucks left with them. They had to get back and also have dinner out in those 4o bucks, that was highly impossible. So they decided to just get back home, by hoping on and of bus they reached home and were now as hungry as if had eaten nothing since morning. They decided to buy bread, with all the coins they had about 18 bucks left. So they went to a shop, asked for bread, Hera held it in his hand and waited for Rack or Monc to make payment and was very tired at first to notice that they both had slipped out of shop while shopkeeper dealt with hordes of customers. Hera had no other option, he had no money, he was tired to bone, but most importantly he was hungry as hell, he made a run for it, no one followed.

             Thus with the saved money they got 6 eggs and were very happy to have made kill! However, the happiness was short lived and vanished as soon as they reached room. Hight of shortsightedness boys can display when it comes to cooking. They had 6 eggs and a bread pack, a electric coil stove but not a single utensil. After 15 minutes of cursing there heads cooled and then Rack had a great idea. 

            Rack: "I have an idea."

            Monc: "Do not even think of eating raw eggs.'                                        

            Rack: "We do have a water heating electric rod."

            Monc: "Even if we get water to boil in a bucket as big as that one, (pointing to one for bath) the amount of water wasted will be too much (20 liters) and it will take at least an hour."

            Hera: "We do not need to use that one, we can use the one in toilet, its only 4 liters and water will boil in about 15 minutes." 

            Oh! by then Crack had also shown up, he too was broke and hungry! So he too joined in, his contribution was some mirch masala and salt that he borrowed from STD auntie.

            Before anyone can take an objection Hera had moved swiftly, even before completing the sentence he was saying and dropped all eggs into the toilet bucket! By then Rack had got the rod out and he planted it in the bucket and as soon as it was filled enough started switch.  They enjoyed the dinner and claim it was one of the most delicious one they had.
