He stepped out of the auto-rickshaw, and paid the driver in a hurry. “I don’t have change!” “Keep the friggin’ change!!” “Hey thanks! You might smell funny, but you have a golden heart!” The funny smelling guy made his way to the café entrance and was about to step in when the importance of the auto-rickshaw driver’s remark hit [...]

“Would you like to repeat the order again, ma’am?” The emphasis on ‘again’ was not lost on her. But she chose to ignore it. It wasn’t his fault, really.
