Pillow from a book shop

Withdrawing money from an ATM brings a certain kind of relief..especially if the previous 3 ATM's rejected your card. In a mood to celebrate the significant increase in the weight of my wallet, i decided to do some book window shopping. Window shopping because i already had around 5-6 unread novels back home which would feel real bad if i came back with new ones.So when i was scanning the books in the seconds shop,i was muttering to myself - "Dont buy, dont buy". After around 15 minutes of taking books, gauging their thickness and keeping them back untidily, i thought i would make my move. Enter book guy. Now this guy looked around 60-65, looked shabby, dressed even more so and had big grandfather specs.

Book guy - " Hello Sir, Are u looking for something specific? " (This guy could speak english that my professors of christmas past could only wish for.)

Me - " No, just looking through. "

Book guy - " Are u interested in novels or in motivational books? "

Me - " mumble jumble "

Book guy - " Hmm...have u read this xyz book by Sidney Sheldon? Its quite popular. "

Me - " No, i dont read Sheldon. " ( Omg do i look like i read sheldon?)

Book guy - " What about Wings of Fire..biography of Abdul Kalaam. It is an extremely interesting book. I finished it in 2 days. Really inspiring. "

Me - " Nah..i am not interested in biographies. "

Book guy - " People your age could learn a lot from these kind of books. Have u read this - 7 habits of HEP? It could change your life.

Me - " no. " ( Way to go jackass )

Book guy - " I recommend this book by Jack Welch. Its about how he turned his company around. Or are you intersted in something else?

Me - " Its not that i am not into motivational books. I just feel that it is a waste of time. "

Book guy - " But you could learn so much from these books,reading how they became successful, what they did in order to become great."

Me - " If Sachin drinks milk every morning, trains till evening, sleeps at night and if i do exactly the same things he does, would i get to play for India? "

Book guy - " No, but you would certainly be a better cricketer than you are now."

Me - " Hmm...So did Sachin read any books to become Sachin?

Book guy - " Yeah. He read Sunny days..you want? Just Rs 200. "

Thats how i bought a pillow from a book shop. Maybe after reading it, i will become a master at leaving balls outside the offstump.By the way, if anyone is interested, i am willing to re-sell. It makes a good bday present especially to people who torture you with bamboo bamboo jokes.

updates- upgradation still in progress. Will take more time.
Watched 300. I kept atleast 1 promise
