Lost & found
Was out in a restaurant with my family and came out to talk to my sister over phone. Out of the blue i felt an itchy sensation in my right eye so, i rubbed it and lost my partial vision achanak se. Lens pehna tha, gir gaya. Tried my level best (or so i thought) to search for it where i was strolling around on the south bombay streets. Went to the wash basin area to try cleaning my gradually reddening eye with a hope that the lost lens will magically fall in my palms lol. The waiters and the chefs were watching me struggle and two of them voluntarily joined my lens-hunt, an almost near to impossible project of finding a sparkly vulnerable-to-adhesion lens near a sparkly clean washbasin area. I was 98% sure that it must have fallen on the footpath at the ingress of the restaurant but i had to try everywhere i had rubbed my eye. I wore my classic old spects and after we were done, i searched again, my brother too joined in. And as we were doing the seemingly impracticable search, the wait...
