Urge to live: Tea Stall
Last sunday,my friend Hrithik & I went to Kacchi Bhai resturant at lunch time.We were talking about getting a story so that we can submit our assignment to our english teacher.After our lunch,we thought we should have a cup of tea.So we started to find a suitable tea stall where we can discuss about our academic materials.We saw a women who was serving tea to their customer and by looking at those customers I assumed that the tea is good.

While we were talking to each other I was searching for a story.Hrithik said stories are everywhere you just have to see it through.Suddenly a police patrol car came in front of the stall. A constable came out of the vehicle and came in front of the owner of the stall and without saying anything he started to eat ‘Shondesh’.I suspected something was wrong because the movement of the owner suddenly changed and there was a weird facial expression on that owners face. I looked at Hrithik and said I think I found a story.That woman started counting money and handed a pile of money to the police without saying anything.I am not sure how much was the amount of money but I was sure it was illegal so I observed.By the way he didn't pay for that ‘Shondesh’. Suddenly their In charge officer came out with a smile and said , ‘Give me something also,Give me a B&H(Cigarette)’.Though the woman said some ugly words but she gave him a cigarette.

After they left the stall,I asked them why are you giving them money?
She Said, “You have to pay to live otherwise they will demolish my shop because it is illegal to establish a stall in the footpath”.
Thanks for reading.
