Too famous for his shoes

 Spotting tv celebs is just like another game for people living in a city like Mumbai. While some people might also consider it as one of their past-times, for the rest few, it's just like coming across another soul on the street. The following is a modified version of a real-life incident. Read on...

 It's another weekday afternoon. A group of teens, bored with the regular canteen food, decide to eat out.

A: "Let's go to that park next to that famous restaurant! I've haven't been there yet. Umm..What's it called?"

B: "No way! That place is not meant for a group of teenagers to hang out."

A: "Is it? Then why's it even there?"

C: "Oh, shut up you two! We have more than an hour on our clocks. Lets just wander about till the time we come up with a better idea"

A: "Lets walk to the garden. If we don't think of anything on the way, we'll go there."

A young boy from the cleaning staff approches them. "Sahab, kuch khana nahi hai toh jagah banao. Dusro ke liye jagah nahi hai"

D: "Too much of insult already done. Come on. Lets get moving."

 After about 10 minutes of walking,

A: "How much time more? My knees are starting to ache"

B: "Oh, look who's talking! You're the one who wanted to go to the park in the first place"

A : "Yeah but now I don't. Isn't there a good restaurant or something around here?"

D: "There's a drinks hotspot round the corner. They have great slushes. Ever tried the strawberry one?"

A: "I hope it's nothing like the beer-vodka-spoof thing we ordered the last time. Yuck!"

B: "No trials for now. I'm falling short of cash.... Look! Here's the hotspot."

C: "Looks different than the last time. What happened to the white walls and the huge menu card?"

A: "Oh that! They went to watch Wasseypur. For now, just get me a drink. Any flavor would do. Apple would be great though."

B: "That makes it 2 apple slush and a strawberry ice splash. C, you don't want anything?"

C: "Nah! I'm good. Just get your drinks and move out."

A: "You always do it, don't you? What do you do with all your savings? Buy a gift for your invisible-and-never-gonna-happen girlfriend?"

C: "Like I said, I'm good. I don't need fizzed up junkies to freshen up."

B: "Here's the slush and the ice splash. Careful with the slush. It's filled to the top."

C: "Get me a straw na. This splash thing looks really appealing."

A: "Someone now wants to have a sip of junk. Look what the world has forced humans to turn into!"

C: "Stop your drama. People are watching. I'll get my own straw. Hmph!"

C walks up to a man in an old, washed-up grey t-shirt and faded jeans, near the counter.

C: "Excuse me! Do you..." 

Man(smiles wickedly): "Not another one. I'm so done with fans."

C: "Not fans. I need a straw. Do you have straw?"

Man: "Huh? What?"

C: "Oh there it is! Thanks anyway."

C walks to the table. 

C: "Ice ice baby! Here I come."

B: "Who was the guy you were talking to? I think I've seen him. Is he your uncle?"

C: "Oh please! He was some lazy waiter who was saying something about the fans. Couldn't even pass me a straw."

D: "OMG! Do you even know who he is? He's that guy who come on Mony tv. That 8 pm show!! Look at the tattoo. I can recognise it anywhere."

A(chokes up): "What are you saying? You mean you just asked him a straw. Are you out of your mind? I read he's having a tough time with his show. They're planning to throw him out."

C: "That's sad. Are you finishing this drink? Or should I do it for you?"

D: "Lets get out of here, guys. That actor is giving us those looks."

B: "Oh really? Who's plan was it to come here?"

A: "Hey, don't blame me. I wanted to go to the park."

D: "Then lets go to the park. It's better to stare at people doing weird stuff than being stared by someone for doing weird stuff."

A: "That didn't make sense. Or did it?"

B: "Come what may, we're not going to the park."

C: "That drink was really great. Let me compliment the owner while you guys wait here for me."

B(grabs C's hand): "Alright! We're going to the park. Lets go!"
