Being the youngest one in the family, Krishna or kichu as we call her is the most pampered one. I’m talking about my 10 year old first cousin. Her funny stories are worth enough to be compiled into a book.
This incident dates back to some 2 years.
After a movie, we went to a restaurant to have our lunch. The ambience and the menu in itself was not really welcoming. But since my mom is very skeptical about girls roaming around and eating out alone, we settled to a not so good OK kinda restaurant very close to the theatre.
Menu was of no use since nothing in that was ready there or will be ready if we wait. To add to the horror, the waiter seemed all the more confused and he ended up serving Chicken Manchurian in the place of Chicken Lollypop and Ghee rice in the place of Fried rice.
When we came out we were so frustrated that we didn’t actually feel like offering any tip. Still for the namesake we carefully placed a 2 rupee coin inside the booklet that he gave us and hurried to the exit.
Kichu was the last one to get out and she noticed that we have left a brand new 2 rupee coin there !!!
She took it and yelled out aloud “Raichi, you forgot to take the balance!”
All we could think of at that time was – ESCAPE

At least some one knows how to save money in your family! .. he .. he
No matter what, that coin was to return to your purse..Good that she took it,else u could have got it as a flying object from the gr8 waiter..
Have noticed in many places in my sweet homeland..people who serve u food are in the attitude..'We only have this..If u want.. jus hav it ...else '@#@!^$%'And there goes all your mood for a relaxed dine out, for a sixer!!!
The worst I heard was when Anoop(he works in the outskirts of the town for the company 'Parachute') told us..the hotel(one n only in his area) owner cum server flies dosas onto your plates and he has the liberty to decide 'no more dosas for u' if u complain about 'cleanliness' or 'the most watery sambar in the world'.U dare not to respond, once you starve revolting to his behaviour, as the next food outlet is some 15 kms away.
So when I see ppl raising against the most well mannered guys at the metros serving u food with a smile for not so gr8 an issue.....I feel like saying to them..'Guys u r in the better lot'.
so happy note that u xlpas up ur mind with the family throughout
