There was a new development today. No. No. I did not fight with any one. Nor did I threaten any one.
I was taking one of my numerous breaks. Why? Just because I work from home, I can not take any breaks? If you are willing to consider my app development as work instead of "time pass". So I was taking a break and I see a young boy and a girl sitting in front of our gate and talking.
First instinct was to ask who are you. But before I could ask the boy told they were sitting "simply". OK. No issue. But I think and I am almost certain that surrounding people are observing and thinking how can they exploit the situation. So I told the boy please go and sit some where else as it won't look good. The girl walked very fast after snatching his mobile. And the boy went with his bike few minutes later.
Was that moral policing by this old auntie? Or was it to save myself - old or not, from further gossips.
Already my people tell me that I should not bother about people on the road or people and vehicles behind our house. But the first instinct of any animal, leave alone human being, is self preservation.
Like many people in this country, sadly, unfortunately I need to justify and give explanations to each and every one of my actions.
