this afternoon

Today, a squirrel entered the house. Its the most IQ- less being. It runs amok. You open windows and doors for letting it out, it does not go out. it passes the open door or window and flies around in the house. Don't get stunned ...it really FLIES. I saw it with my own eyes. it creeps up the wall and having no place to go it starts flying. I felt feverish trying to let it out...then hollered the watchman...he started sweating trying to catch a flying squirrel. Then he threw my scarf on it and held it tight in his hand. All the while i was standing on the dining table....completely frozen. He was smiling holding the squirrel in his hand, i reckoned he must be wanting some money, i was right. I have seen him hold some of the heaviest of trunks and carry it around in the complex. There are two little boys in the backyard of the building, they run hither-thither doing errands for the IAS officer's family that their parents serve. They play cricket and make India's flag in their free time and they laugh a lot. Their sister does a lot of cleaning stuff.. all three must be 8-12 years. There are two boys in high school or something living in a bungalow adjacent to our building, they play electronic guitar in the evening on their roof, they look stylish. Very far in one of the wings of the older building there is a young man....who exercises like crazy...for hours...and his sweat shows in the way he looks. Which one i like the best...watchman the most and then the two little boys r also endearing. I could play guitar, i could do exercise, i could clean the house, i could go out and work ....but im scared of animals. What would i possibly do with a person who could do all the things that i can do... i have known people talking swanky, delicate, well groomed ....but no one was there to let that little witch out of the house....one step closer to knowing what i like ...fearless spirit and smiling faces.
