The day started as usually. The alarm rang at 6 Am promptly reminding that i need to workout in order to be in shape, at least fit enough to continue playing my favorite sport, CRICKET. As promptly as it rang, I turned it off and dozed till 7:30 Am until I realized that it was getting late to office.
Reached to work in time, discussed with friends about the upcoming corporate cricket match between my organization and Synopsys. Then opened my Facebook to check for the recent updates. One post caught my attention.
"Dear sir, you are invited to ipl after party, in return kindly cover It on your blog.
This is the third invitation this month, others are from times and Apollo ....... Yoooooo"
It was a post from my colleague. I was torn between asking him an available spare invitation. I made up my mind and asked him about it and received a response from him that he did have a spare invitation but he had already invited another friend. All I did was to curse that friend of his and asked him to remember me if that slot opens by any luck.
Earlier, we planned to have a fruit meal for lunch atleast once in a week. He reminded me of it and asked whether I am fine to join him. I was famished and couldn't constrain myself to only fruits. He suggested to try SUBWAY. Quickly ran there and grabbed the "SUB OF THE DAY". It was promptly served and we started munching on to it. Discussion turned on to the authenticity of the HYDERABAD BIRYANI and as it progressed my taste buds started craving for it. We went in search of an outlet which offers biryani and ended up going for a buffet.
Later in the evening he called me and told that his friend dropped out and added that I can join him if interested. I was elated. I had to the chance to see my favorite players from a close range. I went home, got dressed and met him. We both went to ITC Kakatiya Hotel and were waiting for one of the organizers to come. Meanwhile, the players returned from the ground. Finally the organizer made a stunning appearance in her knee length skirt. I stood behind my friend dreaming of what's in store ahead.
To my distress, she explained that I am not allowed as the +1 invitation is only for a female. As I understood that there's no chance of getting in, I walked back to the nearest bus stop. I was filled with a deep feeling, which I realized to be as "Jealousy". I couldn't comprehend one thing here that whether I am jealous of him as he got the invitation or about women who always get the chance of being a +1?
good one datta... i think its a + for women to be a +1 at any point of time ;)
