Mixed Emotions Felt!
Mixed Emotions Felt!
Long back it so happened while I was at the railway station that the train I was to board to my dismay was running late by about 3 and half hours! Those days there was no Free WiFi nor net balance was rock-bottom like now. And even if the above could be arranged there was a fear of draining charge in the phone. Hence I decided to stay without my smart screen.
Spend my time looking here and there, observing random people at the railway station. After some time saw a book store being opened after the lunch hour. With a thought of buying a book to pass my time indulging in it, I entered the store. Dad objected but on persuasion I was allowed to buy.
I read it for like an hour or so and I completed reading it.
It was then that my mom advised me to exchange it so that I can read another book instead of carrying an already read book! I was awestruck at this idea of my mom. I got up and went to the book store. The shopkeeper didn't agree for an exchange indeed said he will return the money! I tried to convince him but in vain. So I returned it!
I feel sorry and pity on the shopkeeper for his dumbness and I feel delighted for not wasting money and passing my time in a productive way i.e gain knowledge!
