Today afternoon in between work need to rush to my Jr school to find her lunch bag missing. My work place is at 3rd floor and can go by steps. I was bit late so thought of Elevator as it was in the same floor. As the doors opened myself and other elderly person age of 50+ too came along. The ‘X’ is one of the project manager of the company in our complex. As the doors closed his eyes turned towards the mirror to gaze at himself. I didn’t mind and was still back thinking of my work to do rest of the day.
This is person observes people around a lot, even I have noticed that. In the same complex for more than 5 years he has seen me and never spoke. Today he asked me “As a young lady I expected you to turn to the mirror?” With a small smile I gave him an answer no not so interested on this stuff. We were at the ground floor and our conversation continued till the parking lot. He remarked you seem to more on spiritual path may be that’s the reason, remembering the class of IE in our complex which we organized. I quoted probably may be the reason for that and followed with Inner beauty and happiness is more needed. Waving of bye I started by ride to school.
Waiting at the school for the kids to leave, standing by the shade I was cherishing my Silence class 7 days no conversation, no gesture. Even at home today morning my mil said my bhindhi is cross and why not cares for the pretty thing. As usual smile was my answer to her.
Your usual answer is the best answer. :)
