The Choti and the Bench

Today as the three of us read through our first post, we wondered what stories to write, whom to bitch about so we started to reminiscence our past-so people here's Blast from the Past-1

It was a regular tenth standard school day for our young man-Shetty. Jumping on to the school bus with eager to reach the classroom to put to test something he had thought of and practiced all night. Another factor attracted him too-his first crush. She was/is intelligent, sports lover and shetty's favorite classmate( As it should be!).

He enters his class and waits with baited breath for his front seat partner to come to school. He had it all planned, he knew how and when he should make his move. Just then enters the lady love and promptly she comes and sits next to him and asks -did you bring tiffin box today? to which our man promptly hands it over to the "Rightful owner"

Just then his bait arrived, with those long locks swinging right to left to right. Shetty smirked and she misunderstood it for a smile and 'smiled back'. She sat in her usual place in front of the prankster; Shetty knew he would cherish this day for life and would proudly tell this to his pals to be'. An hour later, it was time-As planned ( and practiced) Shetty began with his move-he slowly reached out to grab those long locks and felt it in his hands. Enjoying every moment of this he began tying the two together and then eventually to the table. (What astonished -Bhat and Me at this point of the story was that for so long whilst he tied away she didn't even feel her hair being pulled even once).

Anyways as Shetty finished tying the knots, he waited for some teacher to make the prank come alive. He had set it up well and waited but to his utter dismay-it was the most prolific teacher who took up that mantle-Mrs. M....as the poor bait rose, upon being called, so did the table and the class laughed and the teacher tromped her way across to Shetty's desk only to throw him out of the class.

Years later Shetty confessed to us-he wanted to impress his first crush and though she did laugh, it was embarrassing to be thrown out of the class in front of her and so began his cycling adventure-every evening he would cycle 20Kms to her place and back just to showcase his cycling skills , albeit his stamina.


I am sure the next Shetty Post is about me!!!
