Delhi, Winter & Roadside Tea..

I came out from office at 6.30 pm. went to C.P (Connaught Place) from Gurgoun – spent time at the streets of Connaught Place, having tea at Central Park for hours…came back to saket in metro. Usually when I reach saket at such odd hours like 10 or say 11 p.m. I use to take an auto or cab…today I did not I thought to take a bus, A BUS which girls do not prefer to commute even during the day.

The picture above is the saket bus stand at 10.05 p.m Friday(6-3-15) – the other women  I saw in the street was the tea wali - who was about to close her shop – looking at me the cute lady made a fresh tea and said – “Beta etne der akele bus ka wait mat kiya karo – jaldi ghar jao” – I smiled and said – “fir aapke haath ka etna acha masala tea kese piti”


She too exchanged a smile and nodded…
