The Delhi Chapter : Page 53


As the day slowly died out, and we collected our stuff.
And walked together down till the tube.
Purnima inquired, "So what of Delhi have you seen so far?"

Me: "Not very much man..
Just CP, Janpath, India Gate and Saket..
Those three malls stitched together.. You know?"

She: "Yeah.. So you haven't been to Dilli Haat yet, is it?"

Me: "Nope.. What's that?"

She: "It's like this make-shift 365 day carnival, bang in the centre of the city..
Dilli Haat is SO you man!
You, for one, should definitely visit the place..
And I promise it'll become your favourite hang-out in Delhi..
Take my word for it.." (she snickered)

Me: "Dilli Haat is so me?
What's that supposed to mean?" (I asked with a curious smile)

She: "You'll know when you go..
Hey! Tell you what..
What you doing tomorrow?
Let's go there and grab lunch together?
I'll show you Sarojini (Nagar) too..
The two are really, really close..
Yes?"

Me: "Umm.. Cool..
Okay.. Sounds like a plan to me.."

She: "Done then.. INA Metro station.. Yellow Line.. 12.30 tomorrow?"

Me: "Works."

[ She smiled and vanished into the jumble of people scooting up to the platform to take the tube ]
