| It was a very decent quarter. Everything was neat and clean. It was not a commercial quarter so the streets were empty. I liked that place. After a while I wanted to talk with anybody to know how to go back to the hotel. After a while I found an expensively decorated shop. I didn�t know what it sold, and I was not sure that it was a shop; there were no windows, just a closed fashionable door. Perhaps it was a hotel. The label was written in Hindi so I didn�t know.

I am a tourist, I want to know how to go back to my hotel.� �What?

I came here seeking someone to reveal to me the human nature.� �Then you came to the right place,� she said as she stumblingly made a step or two extending her arm towards me, �I see them all, Boy, I see them veilless�� |
