Stranger on the Street..............part5


It got real late tonight.Mili was rushing.The bus stand was crowded as always.The street was crowded.It was a Saturday Night.Her parlor was full with customers,street full with shoppers.Mili had to get home and work on her project.She had already started thinking about it.She had to mention a real-life example of 'Crime against Women'. That just triggered the memory of her colleague's incident.
Neena was 2 years older than Mili.She worked in the same parlor as her and almost as the same period of time.The only major difference between them was their relation with the customers.While,Mili kept it to only business,Neena was too innocent to recognize the cheats and bastards hidden in men! Neena had to work for her child and a drunkard husband,whom she had found from this very parlor and fallen in love with. The love between them was soon over and the beautiful words had turned into brawls,hugs with kicks,and kisses with cigerrate burns.............
Mili was too disturbed with Neena's story.She had almost started to hate men.When suddenly she saw this guy staring at her from across the street.It had now been a long time that this was going on.She,at once decided to go ask this mister what was      it that he wanted from her.Without giving a second thought,she crossed the street,walked up to him thinking that she was not going to take this anymore.
Vihaan couldn't believe his eyes.Mili was walking towards him.It might just be a dream or his imagination.But there was something about Mili's eyes that made him realize that it was not a dream.Her eyes were fire.Filled with passion 4 something.Mili walked straight up to Vihaan,caught him by the collar,and yelled
Hey Mister,who do you think you're staring at,ha? Keep your sharp eyes to yourself else I very well know how to pop them out.Get that?? Speak up you sissy.....Don't tryna act too innocent and all...........Thats how you pigs try to charm women and then once she's in,you show them what beasts you men really are!! Keep your filthy eyes off me and every other girl...........If I ever find you staring at me or any other woman,I swear on my dead parents that I'm going rip to off your eyes with my own nails.........Get that....you dumb Owl!!!
It was all way too fast for poor Vihaan to understand.30 years of his life and nobody ever talked to him like that.He had been a clean chit all his life and now he was standing across this crazy woman who was threatening him to rip off his eyes...What on Earth????
People gathered around them.Someone freed Vihaan of Mili's hold.More people got involved and they all tried to calm Mili down while Vihaan tried to prove himself innocent.After a few minutes of people's efforts,Mili came to her senses and realized that Vihaan actually was innocent. A couple of minutes later,Mili apologized to Vihaan and asked if he was interested in having a coffee with her-a peaceful one.....
Vihaan smiled and gently nodded..........
