I wandered aimlessly around Empire hotel near Church street Bangalore. Time was around 7:45. Cowboy cops are lazily eyeing at the group of young folks sitting outside the Barista counter. I sneaked inside the open bar close to Empire hotel. Earlier this joint was buzz with hep crowd. Now it has lost its charm. Rules, Bangalore is full of rules.
I make my way to the dingy room behind the bar counter. Found a corner and placed the drink 60 ml Mansion House Brandy. ( Rs 35 bucks). Paid Rs 5 as tip to the waiter. In few gulps, I finished the drink, and walked out to the open space.
Next I walked inside the swanky Hard Rock Hotel. Familiar bouncers acknowledged me and ushers inside nodded with complete anonymity. Inside counter was packed with jovial guys. I squeezed my way to the little space.
A young lady who stood next to me was merrily texting while her accomplice was looking forward to her nod. She gave me a disapproving look while I touched her bum. I said sorry and moved on to the next pasture.
Another Saturday has dimmed away, just any unknown day in my life. I couldn’t talk to anyone new, nor shared a smile.Another day, another place, another scene I’ll get merrier.
